A'continuing demand has ihdicated that -there is a growing interest in teaching about Capada in the United States at.the pre-university level. Idformation about readily avai1able teaching materials remains hard to come hy, 'hence the justification of a revised version Of Teaching Canada. Like its predecessor this edition is a modest bibliography for which no claim of completeness is made. As maay as passible trade and other sources of information issued through the -spring and summer 1974 have been cansulted; but a selective pr6cess, sometimes on a quite arbitrary basis, has been useckto reduce the number of entries to manageable *ikproporilons; However, those interested in obtarning further data can contact directly the sources whote addresses are inclUded.-Organiza- dons like \Books Canada and the PlaYwrights Co-op, publications like Books in Canada and Quill and Quire, private industry and federal, provincial and municipal governments are all -invaluable resources which can meet specific needs. In addition to those mentioned in the introduction to.the first edition, number of individuals associated with the New England-Atlantic Provinces-Quebec Center haVe.contributed to the preparation of this ,tvorume. Claudia Bunting and Peter Elliott were the principal compilers with the assistance of Marc Bouther, James Ica rpell and Bruce Rickard., Joon Caron deciphered innumerable note cards and transposed them into types,cript.

  • Graphic Novels: Enticing Teenagers Into the Library
    School of Media, Culture and Creative Arts Department of Information Studies Graphic Novels: Enticing Teenagers into the Library Clare Snowball This thesis is presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Curtin University of Technology March 2011 Declaration To the best of my knowledge and belief this thesis contains no material previously published by any other person except where due acknowledgement has been made. This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any university. Signature: _____________________________ Date: _________________________________ Page i Abstract This thesis investigates the inclusion of graphic novels in library collections and whether the format encourages teenagers to use libraries and read in their free time. Graphic novels are bound paperback or hardcover works in comic-book form and cover the full range of fiction genres, manga (Japanese comics), and also nonfiction. Teenagers are believed to read less in their free time than their younger counterparts. The importance of recreational reading necessitates methods to encourage teenagers to enjoy reading and undertake the pastime. Graphic novels have been discussed as a popular format among teenagers. As with reading, library use among teenagers declines as they age from childhood. The combination of graphic novel collections in school and public libraries may be a solution to both these dilemmas. Teenagers’ views were explored through focus groups to determine their attitudes toward reading, libraries and their use of libraries; their opinions on reading for school, including reading for English classes and gathering information for school assignments; and their liking for different reading materials, including graphic novels.

    “I am being taught my own work”: Editor Claire Pratt of McClelland and Stewart Ruth Panofsky* One of the first women to enter the book trade as a professional editor, Claire Pratt (1921–1995) was at the vanguard of mid-twentieth century Canadian publishing. At McClelland and Stewart, where she was senior editor from 1956 to 1965, Pratt made her most significant contribution to Canadian literary culture. She worked collegially with Jack McClelland, the charismatic head of the firm, and experienced firsthand the challenges and rewards of Canadian literary publishing. She also worked closely with English professor Malcolm Ross, who served as general editor of the firm’s paperback reprint series New Canadian Library, and directly with some of Canada’s most prominent writers, including parliamentarian Stanley Knowles, journalist Peter C. Newman, historian W.L. Morton, novelists Henry Kreisel and Margaret Laurence, and poet Irving Layton. Unlike the majority of women in publishing “whose domestic and behind-the-scenes labour [as wives, daughters, and employees often] made the family business possible, or made it flourish,”1 and who typically toiled invisibly in a field dominated by men, Pratt’s interest in literature and art was fostered by both her parents who encouraged her to pursue a career in publishing. This essay focuses on the nine-year period when Claire Pratt was a key member of McClelland and Stewart’s editorial staff. It * Ruth Panofsky is Professor of English at Ryerson University in Toronto. Her latest book, The Literary Legacy of the Macmillan Company of Canada: Making Books and Mapping Culture, was published by the University of Toronto Press in 2012.

  • Uncovering the Grotesque in Fiction by Alice Munro and Gabrielle Roy
    Uncovering the Grotesque in Fiction by Alice Munro and Gabrielle Roy Lorna Hutchison he grotesque aesthetic is at play in a diversity of fiction of the last two hundred years, including Jeremias Gotthelf’s The Black Spider (1842), Robert Louis Stevenson’s Strange Case of TDr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1886), Kafka’s The Metamorphosis (1915), and numerous works by Flannery O’Connor in the mid-twentieth century, to name only a few. Today, the grotesque is a part of the art of many of Canada’s authors and has burgeoned over the last forty years into such an important aesthetic — and strategy, as I will describe it here — in this country’s body of works that the literary theory that helps read- ers, critics, and teachers to explore the many concerns, processes, and, most importantly here, effects of the literature has not kept up with its developments. The prominence of the grotesque and the doors it opens to questions of spirituality, ethics, ways of knowing, and so much more, prompts the research question What does and does not “qualify” as literature of the grotesque? Consider two quintessential characteristics of the grotesque: dual- ity and deformity. In the Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, for example, the divided nature and deformity of Stevenson’s Jekyll-Hyde character clearly fulfills these criteria, right down to the contradiction of Jekyll-Hyde’s ominous smile: “Mr. Hyde was pale and dwarfish, he gave an impression of deformity without any nameable malformation, he had a displeasing smile” (17). One of the authors under study here, Alice Munro, creates the aesthetic through depicting contradictory states of life and death, or life and terminal illness.
