英语语境:

N. Scott Momaday's novel House Made of Dawn writes a history of three Native American tribes that spans nearly eighty years. As a textual representation of the historical situation of Native American languages, the novel reveals the impact that the American language policy and certain educational policies have imposed upon Native Americans. The three major characters- Francisco, Abel and Tosamah can be interpreted as respectively the inheritor of native tribal languages, the aphasic caught between the world of tribal languages and the world of English, and the challenger of the English world.
