This anthology lays the foundations of the field of Anishinaabeg Studies which employs Anishinaabe stories as methodological and theoretical frameworks in a wide range of disciplines, such as law, political science, history, anthropology, sociology, education, and environmental studies. In this new and highly innovative field, stories are conceptualized broadly and their significance is not limited merely to literature or the idea of traditional stories.

What the Anishinaabeg understand by the term story, transcends the scope of a literary form in the conventional Western sense and encompasses a diverse array of artistic expression as well as historical and legal documents.
