en-wikipedia-org-9253		Ceremony (Silko novel) - Wikipedia			.html	text/html	7477	723	72	Ceremony is a novel by writer Leslie Marmon Silko (Laguna Pueblo), first published by Viking Press in March 1977. This renaissance is a term coined by American literary critic Kenneth Lincoln in his book by the same title and describes the significant increase in fictional literary works published by Native American authors in the United States since the late 1960s.[49] Published in 1977, Silko's Ceremony was influential in providing a historical perspective of the Laguna Pueblo and the consequences of World War II on indigenous people who served in the United States military.[50] Ceremony is thought to be part of the First Wave of contemporary American Indian literature, in which stories contain themes of a return to reservation life and tradition, as well as ceremonies and the rituals of tribal people. Since the publication of Ceremony, author Leslie Marmon Silko has achieved much acclaim within Native American literary communities.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-9253.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-9253.txt
