- Title
Repenser les rapports entre humains et nature: visions écopolitiques dans la littérature autochtone contemporaine.
- Authors
Papillon, Joëlle
- Abstract
This article analyzes the ecopolitical ideas woven into various contemporary indigenous works: Obom's graphic work, a young adult novel by Louis-Karl Picard-Sioui, as well as the poetry of Jean Sioui, Marie-Andrée Gill, and Natasha Kanapé Fontaine. These ecopolitical visions criticize colonial practices that destroy the natural world and First Nations, while stressing the resurgence of those victimized entities - indigenous individuals, peoples, and territories. In the works studied, healing is a circular process generated by a relationship of care between the natural world and humans.
