Description

Challenge traditional historical narratives with Firsting in the Early-Modern Atlantic World. For centuries, history books have used terms like discovery, invasion, and conquest to center European agency while sidelining Native Americans. This Routledge research volume examines the concept of firsting, a discourse that prioritizes European and settler-colonial presence, movements, and knowledge as a tool of colonization between 1492 and 1900. This book investigates how textual culture has been used to keep Euro-settlers in a position of dominance over Indigenous peoples. It examines the specific ways Native Americans have been misrepresented as unmodern through written records. By analyzing these linguistic and textual patterns, the work provides a new perspective on the early modern Atlantic world and the power dynamics shaped by colonial language.
