The Representation of Landscape and the (Native) American in the Western

Master thesis | Literary Studies (MA)

This thesis examines the difference in representation of Native Americans and white American settlers in six American western films from 1911 to 2017. Where it might be reasonable to think that the position of the Native American in the eyes of the general American public is ameliorated, the events of 9/11/2001 might prove this not to be the case.
