This volume brings together a group of most highly acclaimed Canadian writers and distinguished international experts on Canadian literature to discuss what potential Janice Kulyk Keefer''s concept of "historiographic ethnofiction" has for ethnic writing in Canada. The collection builds upon Kulyk Keefer''s idea but also moves beyond it by discussing such realms of the concept as its ethics and aesthetics, multiple and multilayered sites, generic intersections, and diasporic (con-)texts. Thus, focusing on Canadian historiographic ethnofiction, "Land Deep in Time" is the first study to define and explore a type of writing which maintains a marked presence in Canadian literature but has not yet been recognized as a separately identifiable genre.

The volume is a collection of essays by acclaimed and widely published international scholars of ''space'' working within different disciplines, such as social sciences, history, applied sciences and media theory, literary and cultural studies (American, Canadian, French, German, Mexican-American, and Polish). Their contributions substantiate the argument that the debate on ''space'' has produced a polyphony of argumentation which resulted in the multiplication and diversification of perspectives and interpretations of the studied concept. The volume captures the present state of the most recent debate on ''space,'' exploring the importance of its multifaceted nature evinced by the abundance of research on such related terms as ''border,'' ''boundary,'' and/or ''region.''
