Annotation
Examines the authors’ reliance on primitivism to critique white privilege and imperialism. Rossetti explores the imposed paternalism found in “Indian Camp,” “The Doctor and the Doctor’s Wife,” and “Ten Indians” and Nick’s search for restorative power in “Big Two-Hearted River” to uncover Hemingway’s underlying challenge to the passing away of Native Americans and their way of life.
