“Allowing the Glow to shine through”
From the arrival of the first British fleet, the notion of “frontier” in Australia had been used quite specifically, as frontiers happened to cross the Australian territory itself, whether it be geographical, cultural or political. However, art and literature can offer a space for contestation, criticism but also collaboration and friendship as it exposes that frontier which becomes progressively porous so as to create pathways towards cultural d…

Sovereignty and Agency in Photographic Portraits from Australia and Aotearoa / New Zealand
Cet article s’intéresse à l’usage documentaire et ethnographique des portraits photographiques des peuples autochtones d’Australie et d’Aotearoa/Nouvelle-Zélande, et à ce qu’ils laissent percevoir de la complexité des relations entre les photographes et leurs sujets, entre objectification et agentivité. Deux « types » ethnographiques sont plus particulièrement mis en lumière, incarnant à la fois autorité et pouvoir autochtone dans l’imaginaire eu…
The Swamp and Desert Tropes in Post-Apocalyptic Australian Indigenous Fiction
Focusing on The Swan Book (2013) by Alexis Wright and Terra Nullius (2018) by Claire Coleman, this article demonstrates how Aboriginal science-fiction rests on a creative temporal continuum as the logical sequel to Australia’s history of colonization and its present Indigenous people’s struggle, whether it be cultural or political. Both novels claim desert and swamp should not be understood as permanent and stable or never-changing places but rat…
Māori Cultural and Bodily Rebirth in Alan Duff’s Once Were Warriors Trilogy
This article examines what happens in Alan Duff’s trilogy, Once Were Warriors (1990-2002), to the Western novelistic device of individualisation of characters that takes its roots in the European Renaissance. In Duff’s novels, the development of characters is reconfigured through their relation to others as they experience a form of cultural and bodily rebirth in their own community. The trilogy thus offers an alternative to traditional Western c…
An Exception to European Epistemological Rule
Starting from Edward Said’s The World, the Text and the Critic, in which he theorizes the cultural movements of filiation and affiliation, this article questions the epistemological links Alan Duff’s and Mudrooroo’s novels weave with European constructs of the Indigenous subject. This theoretical framework can be helpful in understanding the relations between the individual and the collective, mostly concerning their drive toward self-definition …
“Down-Under” the Veil of Invisibilization
This article aims at demonstrating Aboriginal photographer Michael Cook’s ability to address the Aboriginal subjects of his photomontages in their very absence, as a paradoxical way to counter the primeval colonial drive which erased the traditional custodians of the Australian land. As a consequence, focusing on the photomontage and layering techniques, I will demonstrate how Cook exposes and debunks former colonial epistemologies while making t…
