'Drawing on recent Australian studies of "intersubjectivity" and "whiteness", this article offers insights into the ongoing debate on Indigenous/non-Indigenous literary collaborations. Through the combination of these theories, the Australian literary contact zone is unveiled as a space where writers, readers, editors and critics are always intersubjectively, although often not reciprocally, influenced. Hence, this article hopes to offer a terrain for discussing issues of sovereignty, difference and subject positioning.' -- Author's abstract.
