    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.

  • The Dominance of White Authors in Canadian Literary Awards
    White Voices: The Dominance of White Authors in Canadian Literary Awards Kara Locke Abstract An analysis of the past winners of Canada's three largest English-language fiction awards, as well as the non-fiction award with the largest monetary prize. This article examines the ratio of white authors to those of visible racial minority, and considers the cultural and economic impacts of awarding primarily white authors in a racially diverse country. Keywords: Literary Awards Literary awards have long been a way to shine a spotlight on exceptional authors and stories. A combination of attributed prestige, exposure and monetary reward, winning one of these awards can drastically alter the career of a writer. By effectively amplifying the voices of the authors who are awarded, these prizes select what and who Canadians will be reading, and contribute to the shaping of what we recognize as Canadian culture. Canada is known for being multicultural, a diverse mix of the different peoples who have come to inhabit the land, so it stands to reason that our list of award winning authors would reflect that. It does not. The archive of past winners is overwhelmingly white. The oldest award in Canada is the Governor General’s Award for English- language fiction, created in 1936 by the Canadian Author’s Association, and taken over by the Canada Council for the Arts in 1959 (ggbooks.ca/about) . The winner receives a $25,000 prize. The deliberation process is carried out through peer evaluation, with other authors, often past winners themselves, choosing a winner of the finalists.

  • “How a Girl from Canada Break the Bigtime” Esi Edugyan and the Next Generation of Literary Celebrity in Canada
    Lorraine York “How a Girl from Canada Break the Bigtime” Esi Edugyan and the Next Generation of Literary Celebrity in Canada The field of literary celebrity studies has experienced something of a boom in recent years, with exciting studies of British and American modernist writers by the American scholars Jonathan Goldman and Aaron Jaffe and, closer to home, Gillian Roberts’ Prizing Literature: The Celebration and Circulation of National Culture (211), a study of the way in which prize culture marks the Canadian nation state as welcoming or inhospitable to immigrant writers in particular. Such critical activity has taken place within a broader context of renewed attention to literary production conceived as operating within and not necessarily against celebrity culture. These recent studies of literary celebrity are revealing a new modernism: not the elite recoil from tawdry popular culture that many of us were trained to expect from the likes of Eliot, Pound, and Woolf, but a modernism that is fully implicated in celebrity culture. As Goldman observes in his perceptive book, Modernism Is the Literature of Celebrity (211), “literary high modernism and early twentieth-century celebrity . these two supposedly separate aspects of culture are, in truth, mutually constitutive, two sides of the same cultural coin . modernism and celebrity perform similar cultural work on the notion of the exceptional individual” (2). Both modernism and celebrity, that is, work to contemplate and affirm the central role of the individual within mass culture. Along with dearticulating the old narrative of modernism’s antagonistic relationship with popular culture, recent studies of celebrity writers feature an appreciation of the transnational reach of national culture, as well as a renewed awareness that the material aspects of literary culture matter.

For over a decade she was active in a circle of New York artists that merged the critical ideas of Minimalism and Conceptual Art with photography, and came to be known as the Pictures Generation. Since then she has continued to explore the appropriated image through her own photography, especially in relation to iconic representations of nature as well as the spaces of consumerism - two subjects that remain significant in today's cultural discourses. This book, which accompanies an exhibition at the Vancouver Art Gallery, is a Figure 1 beautifully illustrated retrospective of nearly four decades of Alexander's work.

  • The Enkindling Reciter: E-Books in the Bibliographical Imagination Alan

This version has been posted to the University of Toronto’s institutional repository, T-Space, in compliance with the journal’s self-archiving policy. This version is free to view and download for personal use only. Not for re-distribution, re-sale, or use in derivative works. © Copyright Alan Galey.] The Enkindling Reciter: E-Books in the Bibliographical Imagination Alan Galey University of Toronto 1. Introduction: Performing Reading, Concealing Texts And this is what it’s like to read a book. Steve Jobs, first public iPad demo, 27 January 20101 When Steve Jobs made this offhand comment during the first iPad rollout event, while demonstrating the iBooks e-reading app, one was left to wonder what he understood the word book to mean. The offhandedness of Jobs’s comment belies the ambiguity of the book’s status at that moment, both materially and in the cultural imagination. Devices like the iPad have returned us to an age of interface as public spectacle, much like the original Macintosh computer’s debut in 1984 and Douglas Englebart’s legendary demo of now-commonplace interface elements in 1968. Jobs spoke from the center of that tradition when he performed the reading of an e-book at the iPad rollout, on a stage before an audience of Apple enthusiasts in San Francisco and a much larger audience online. All witnessed a performance based on a shared understanding of the genre of the tech demo, which in the case of e-books has also been shaped by Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, Oprah, and others who enact the norms of reading on public stages.2 This article reads the e-book demo as a performance genre, and traces the appearance and disappearance of texts as material artifacts in those performances.
