Through the analysis, the paper tries to reveal how these distinctive features link the characters and decide different fates for each. Then the unique skills of characterization employed by the author can be fully appreciated.' (Publication abstract)
1 Religious Identity in Mudrooroo's Wild Cat Falling Yong-chun Yang , Xu Xian-jing , 2011 single work criticism
— Appears in: US-China Foreign Language , June vol. 9 no. 6 2011; (p. 398-403) 'The dreaming is still there and deeply influences the Aboriginal world view and life view—epistemology and ontology. Dreaming is the law, spiritual identity and custodial ethic toward the land. Dreaming is one of the most important keynote themes in aboriginal creative writing. This paper is meant to handle the theme of dreaming as religious identity in Mudrooroo's most important representative work, Wild Cat Falling (1992), from the perspective of identity construction such as kinship and walkabout and identity resistance.' (Editor's abstract)
