Human exodus as a biological occurrence has become a predictable component of human history, and this puts man in a scenario in which he becomes the most extensively diffused social animal, the explorer on the move. Writers, poets, critics and theoreticians have tried their best to capture and expose these harrowing experiences of displacement and dislocation which have to a large extent altered the sentiments of people culturally, socially and linguistically. Multicultural societies today are a consequence of the widespread movements as a result of diaspora, which has been occurring at different levels of social echelon, with varying enormity and for as many diversified reasons.

Although cross-cultural encounter is often considered an economic or political matter, beauty, taste, and artistry were central to cultural exchange and political negotiation in early and nineteenth-century America. Part of a new wave of scholarship in early American studies that contextualizes American writing in Indigenous space, Literary Indians highlights the significance of Indigenous aesthetic practices to American literary production. Countering the prevailing notion of the "literary Indian" as a construct of the white American literary imagination, Angela Calcaterra reveals how Native people's pre-existing and evolving aesthetic practices influenced Anglo-American writing in precise ways. Indigenous aesthetics helped to establish borders and foster alliances that pushed against Anglo-American settlement practices and contributed to the discursive, divided, unfinished aspects of American letters. Focusing on tribal histories and Indigenous artistry, Calcaterra locates surprising connections and important distinctions between Native and Anglo-American literary aesthetics in a new history of early American encounter, identity, literature, and culture.
