The Giller Prize (1994–2004) and Scotiabank Giller Prize (2005–2014): A Bibliography Andrew David Irvine* For the price of a meal in this town you can buy all the books. Eat at home and buy the books. Jack Rabinovitch1 Founded in 1994 by Jack Rabinovitch, the Giller Prize was established to honour Rabinovitch’s late wife, the journalist Doris Giller, who had died from cancer a year earlier.2 Since its inception, the prize has served to recognize excellence in Canadian English-language fiction, including both novels and short stories. Initially the award was endowed to provide an annual cash prize of $25,000.3 In 2005, the Giller Prize partnered with Scotiabank to create the Scotiabank Giller Prize. Under the new arrangement, the annual purse doubled in size to $50,000, with $40,000 going to the winner and $2,500 going to each of four additional finalists.4 Beginning in 2008, $50,000 was given to the winner and $5,000 * Andrew Irvine holds the position of Professor and Head of Economics, Philosophy and Political Science at the University of British Columbia, Okanagan.

Uaac-Aauc Conference 2014
UAAC-AAUC CONFERENCE 2014 October 23 to October 26 OCAD University www.uaac-aauc.com Toronto, Canada 1 Bienvenue au congrès! Au nom du conseil d’administration de l’Association d’art des universités du Canada, je souhaite la bienvenue à tous les participants au congrès 2014 de Toronto. C’est toujours un plaisir pour l’Association de venir à Toronto, mais cette année, nous sommes particulièrement heureux d’être accueillis par l’Université OCAD, un établissement jouissant d’une longue et brillante feuille de route en ce qui a trait à la production de certains des plus importants artistes du Canada. J’aimerais remercier l’Université OCAD et sa présidente, Sara Diamond, pour le parrainage de cette conférence. Des remerciements particuliers vont aux coprésidents du comité d’organisation sur place, Charles Reeve et Caroline Langill, ainsi qu’aux membres de leur équipe, Claudette Lauzon, Keith Bresnahan, Anda Kubis, Adam Tindale, Audrey Hudson, Jessica Wyman, Laragh Halldorson et Sarah McLean Knapp. Le programme du congrès de cette année s’annonce très excitant—et rempli! Nous essayons une nouveauté cette année, une journée supplémentaire dédiée au perfectionnement professionnel et à des séances pédagogiques. En tant qu’Association d’art des universités du Canada, nous avons une responsabilité particulière à l’égard du perfectionnement professionnel de nos étudiants aux cycles supérieurs. Comme les emplois traditionnels en enseignement et dans les musées se raréfient, il nous faut aider nos étudiants à trouver des carrières intéressantes, tant au sein des universités qu’à l’extérieur de celles-ci. Je vous encourage à venir écouter notre conférencière Jennifer Polk, du site From PhD to Life, parler de ces possibilités dimanche matin à 9 h 30, et à participer aux tables rondes sur le perfectionnement professionnel et pédagogique qui suivront. -
Narrative Voice in David Elias's Sunday Afternoon
Speaking Redemption: Narrative Voice in David Elias’s Sunday Afternoon Edna A. Froese, St. Thomas More College, Saskatoon Whatever the recent developments in narrative theology have accomplished by way of allowing Christian believers to negotiate postmodern challenges to the authority of the scriptural foundations of their beliefs, the newly emphasized parallels between theology and literature open up wonderful possibilities for reading fiction as well as the Bible itself. Catherine Wallace, for example, in “Faith and Fiction: Literature as Revelation,” argues that literature “has much to offer religion that religion fails to understand and to accept” (2). With Coleridge and then Steiner, Wallace observes that faith is neither “an act of will [nor] an act of knowledge” but “a creative act, the act of imagination”; thus “art and the encounter with God share a common origin in the human spirit” (5). Since “the knowledge of God is not propositional but visionary” (5-6), the poet (or novelist or playwright) is also an “autonomous and significant theologian” (1), whose task it is “to take all the muddled disruptive incoherence of real fact and actual memory – whether communal or personal – and then select and arrange, reform and recast them into a coherent aesthetic whole that tells a visionary truth that facts alone cannot reveal” (10).1 If the 202 Journal of Mennonite Studies truth that the poet thus reveals is to be understood, whether that poet happens to be the redactor of Scripture or a contemporary novelist, “we must first of all read properly, which is to say attentively, details regarded not as historical facts but as poetic choices” (Wallace 10). -

Interior Music: an Examination of the Sociocognitive Abilities of Fiction Writers
INTERIOR MUSIC: AN EXAMINATION OF THE SOCIOCOGNITIVE ABILITIES OF FICTION WRITERS by Theanna Frances Bischoff A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Human Development and Applied Psychology Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto © Copyright by Theanna Frances Bischoff (2013) INTERIOR MUSIC: AN EXAMINATION OF THE SOCIOCOGNITIVE ABILITIES OF FICTION WRITERS Doctor of Philosophy 2013 Theanna Frances Bischoff Department of Human Development and Applied Psychology University of Toronto Abstract A two-part study was undertaken to investigate the relationship between fiction writing and social cognition: the ability to make inferences about the mental states of others. First, an online survey was administered that assessed beliefs held by the general public about the social cognition of fiction writers compared to a variety of other professions. The findings revealed that the general public believes fiction writers demonstrate above average sociocognitive abilities. Next, the possibility of an empirical relationship between social cognition and fiction writing was explored by comparing two groups of fiction writers (established/published and intermediate writers) and a control group on measures directly assessing different facets of social cognition (e.g., social perception, interpreting body language, and making inferences about interpersonal interactions on video and in written vignettes). Participants were also asked to self-report their own sociocognitive abilities via a questionnaire assessing perspective taking. Related variables to social cognition were also tested, including self-reported interpersonal/social reactivity and cognitive complexity/differentiation. Potential confounding variables, including age, level of depression, verbal IQ, and tendency to read fiction were also measured and accounted for. -
