We are pleased to work in partnership with the Department of Communities, Culture and Heritage to develop and promote our cultural resources for all Nova Scotians. Final publication date November 2017. Books are our finest calling card to the world. The stories they share travel far and wide, and contribute greatly to our global presence. Books have the power to profoundly express the complex and rich cultural life that makes Nova Scotia a place people want to visit, live, work and play. This year, the 150th Anniversary of Confederation provided Public Libraries across the province with a unique opportunity to involve Nova Scotians in a celebration of our literary heritage. The value of public engagement in the 150 Books of Influence project is demonstrated by the astonishing breadth and quality of titles listed within. The booklist showcases the diversity and creativity of authors, both past and present, who have called Nova Scotia home.

Lane (2011), The Routledge Concise History of Canadian Literature. London and New York: Routledge; 249 pages. ISBN 978-0-415-47046-9 Richard J. Lane, an established critic and scholar, has published on various topics within the field of literature and literary theory. One of his recent undertakings is The Routledge Concise History of Canadian Literature (2011), which is an interesting attempt at presenting the history of Canadian literature from its beginnings to the present day. It is a text which will be of great value to readers interested in Canadian literature, alongside W. H. New’s canonical History of Canadian Literature, The Cambridge Companion to Canadian Literature edited by Eva-Marie Kröller, and more recent texts such as Faye Hammill’s Canadian Literature.1 What Lane’s text offers, apart from its conciseness (only 249 pages), is an interesting and engaging combination of well-known and less popular texts by various Canadian authors, supplemented with a discussion of the historical context of these works and an invaluable insight into literary theory. The book comprises maps, glossaries of terms, and sections with suggestions for further reading, and at the end of each chapter there are concluding remarks summarizing, in point form, the most important issues raised in the chapters. Moreover, there are also some sections (marked in grey and distinguished from the main text) devoted entirely to explanations of key terms and ideas for the current discussion (e.g.
  • Abortion in Canadian Literature

    Abortion in Canadian Literature

    Citation for the following article: Jeff Koloze, “Abortion in Canadian Literature: Comparisons with American Literature and Canada’s Unique Contributions,” Proceedings of the Nineteenth University Faculty for Life Conference at the University of St. Thomas School of Law, Minneapolis MN (2009), ed. Joseph W. Koterski, S.J. (Washington, D.C.: University Faculty for Life, 2013), pp. 207-225. Abortion in Canadian Literature: Comparisons with American Literature and Canada’s Unique Contributions Jeff Koloze A BSTRACT: After reviewing the scholarship on abortion in twentieth- century Canadian fiction written in English, the essay discusses various abortion scenes in major Canadian works by comparing and contrasting them with major works from the United States. The essay then discusses post-abortion syndrome and illustrates passages in Canadian fiction on abortion where numerous characters display features of that syndrome. OCATING CANADIAN NOVELS concerned with abortion often approximates an archaeological dig since compilations of literary Lcriticism frequently obscure, minimize, or lack references to abortion. Margaret Atwood’s Survival: A Thematic Guide to Canadian Literature1 has much to say about babies being an inappropriate solution for a plot’s denouement, calling this technique the “Baby Ex Machina,”2 1 Margaret Atwood, Survival: A Thematic Guide to Canadian Literature (Toronto ON: McClelland & Stewart, 1972). 2 Atwood, Survival, p. 247. The “Baby Ex Machina” denouement is well- established in Canadian fiction. Frederick Philip Grove’s 1925 Settlers of the Marsh (Toronto ON: Penguin Canada,2006) ends with two instances of children bringing closure to an otherwise disastrous plot: Bobby, a young man befriended by Niels, the main character, and encouraged to do well, has five children; Ellen, the love of Niels’s life, realizes at novel’s end that she needs to be a mother (pp.
  • Anti-Imperialism and Feminism in Margaret Laurence's African Writings

    Anti-Imperialism and Feminism in Margaret Laurence's African Writings

    Wendy Roy Anti-imperialism and Feminism in Margaret Laurence's African Writings Ivl argaret Laurence's anti-imperialist and feminist impulses have common origins. As she indicates in her 1978 essay "Ivory Tower or Grassroots?: The Novelist as Socio-Political Being," both stem from her upbringing in the United Church of Canada and her involvement with the "old Left" of North Winnipeg during and just after her college years, when she worked for the communist newspaper The Westerner. Laurence links her "feelings of anti-imperialism, anti-colonialism, anti- authoritarianism" to her "growing awareness of the dilemma and power- lessness of women," concluding that the situation of "peoples with colonial mentalities, w,as not unlike that of women in our society"(24, 23). Her own feminism and her connection of anti-imperialism with women's issues began before the feminist movement of the 1960s and was rooted not only in her political and religious beliefs but also in the women's suffrage move- ment of the early twentieth century. In "Books that Mattered to Me," Laurence cites Nellie McClung as a direct influence (241); as Randi Warne points out, McClung's feminism and social activism, including her work on suffrage and temperance and her battle to have women recognized as "persons" under the law, were also intimately connected to the practice of her religion.1 Western Canadian feminism of the type advocated by McClung and the socialism of the Winnipeg old Left are at the roots of the feminism and anti- imperialism evident in Laurence's five books about Africa. Despite these common origins, however, Laurence's feminist principles are sometimes at odds in her African books with her anti-imperialist beliefs.

    The ArtsSmarts Story Silver Donald Cameron The ArtsSmarts Story hen Silver Donald Cameron, one of Canada’s most creative and engaging writers, agreed to document the ArtsSmarts WStory, we could not have been more pleased. The J.W. McConnell Family Foundation developed and is funding ArtsSmarts in order that artists might bring a new way of learning to children in schools and communities across Canada. It took very little time for Donald, through his warm way with children and his keen ability to observe the world and all of its nuances, to understand the magic of creative learning through art as well as the value and potential of “art-infused” education. He shares that magic here. The Canadian Conference of the Arts has been an essential contributor to the development of ArtsSmarts and acts as the National Secretariat for the program.

The mural was part of an ArtStarts in Schools project. S ydney Vrana raises his baton. The classroom falls silent. Vrana brings the baton down, and the light, silvery chime of a plucked dulcimer floats on the air. The recorders pick up the melody. The percussion follows: drums, triangle, cymbals and shaken gourds, then xylophone, lute and tambourine. Measured and ethereal, the music evokes a stately dance of robed figures in mid-air: imperturbable, decorous and serene.

    War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada’s Military, 19521992 by Mallory Schwartz Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctorate in Philosophy degree in History Department of History Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © Mallory Schwartz, Ottawa, Canada, 2014 ii Abstract War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada‘s Military, 19521992 Author: Mallory Schwartz Supervisor: Jeffrey A. Keshen From the earliest days of English-language Canadian Broadcasting Corporation television (CBC-TV), the military has been regularly featured on the news, public affairs, documentary, and drama programs. Little has been done to study these programs, despite calls for more research and many decades of work on the methods for the historical analysis of television. In addressing this gap, this thesis explores: how media representations of the military on CBC-TV (commemorative, history, public affairs and news programs) changed over time; what accounted for those changes; what they revealed about CBC-TV; and what they suggested about the way the military and its relationship with CBC-TV evolved. Through a material culture analysis of 245 programs/series about the Canadian military, veterans and defence issues that aired on CBC-TV over a 40-year period, beginning with its establishment in 1952, this thesis argues that the conditions surrounding each production were affected by a variety of factors, namely: (1) technology; (2) foreign broadcasters; (3) foreign sources of news; (4) the influence
