"For centuries, historians have narrated the arrival of Europeans using terminology
(discovery, invasion, conquest, and colonization) that emphasizes their agency and
disempowers that of Native Americans. This book explores firsting, a discourse that
privileges European and settler-colonial presence, movements, knowledges, and experiences
as a technology of colonization in the early modern Atlantic world, 1492-1900. It
exposes how textual culture has ensured that Euro-settlers dominate Native Americans,
while detailing misrepresentations of Indigenous peoples as unmodern and proposing
how the western world can be un-firsted in scholarship on this time and place."
