Sažetak
The paper focuses on the shifting signifi er of Aboriginality as discussed by Aboriginal
public intellectuals and writers from the publication of Aboriginal Writing Today
in 1985 to the most recent anthology of essayist writing by Aboriginal Australians,
Blacklines in 2003. The discussion shows initially simple bifurcation of Aboriginal
identity on “black” constructed in opposition to “white” and a whole plethora of different
and sometimes opposing views on defining contemporary Aboriginal identity
from the 1990s onwards.
