Literary depictions of these men of European origin reveal the dominant culture's changing attitudes toward Amerindians and land use, exposing each period's problematic behavior vis-à-vis different cultures and the environment and the intercultural connections and business relationships that point to the way forward.After the empire.French-Canadian literatureFrench-Canadian literature.840Rehill Annie1557500MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910798547803321Backwoodsmen as ecocritical motif in French Canadian literature3821064UNINA
