According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "This invention presents an original scholarly work, "Navigating Cultural Resilience: Identity Dynamics in N. Scott Momaday's Selected Novels," offering a novel critical paradigm for Native American literature. Focusing on House Made of Dawn and The Ancient Child, it conceptualizes identity as dynamic shaped by colonial disruptions yet resilient through myth, ritual, land, and narrative. Protagonists navigate alienation toward reintegration: Abel heals via Pueblo ceremonies; Set embraces Kiowa bear legends. The framework highlights storytelling's restorative power, affirming Indigenous adaptability amid modernity. Applicable to academia, it bridges literary analysis with cultural studies, fostering deeper appreciation of Momaday's role in the Native Renaissance. This monograph challenges static views of trauma, emphasizing active survival and sovereignty. Intended for publication, it targets scholars, students, and cultural educators seeking innovative tools for interpreting Indigenous experiences in a global context."
