Sažetak
The essay analyzes Guy Vanderhaeghe's novel"The Last Crossing" as a revision of the official Canadian history of the late 19th-century West from the aspects of white civility (Coleman) and the im/possibilities of contact between the white and the Other within the colonial ideology that dominated the 19th-century Canada. Vanderhaeghe’s novel, as a “re-historical fiction” (Slemon), shows the awareness of complicity that the postcolonial settler culture brings to sight as a counter-discourse to the grand narrative of white civility.
