Focusing on the complex legacy of Louis Riel, this book explores the diverse and often contradictory portrayals of the nineteenth-century Metis politician and mystic in Canadian culture. From martyr to rebel, Riel has been depicted in various ways, reflecting the perspectives of different authors and societal contexts. Albert Braz analyzes a wide range of representations, including film, literature, and art, demonstrating how these interpretations reveal more about their creators than about Riel himself. This work offers a comprehensive examination of Riel's impact on Canadian literature and identity.
