    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-89131-8 - The Cambridge Companion to Canadian Literature Edited by Eva-Marie Kröller Frontmatter More information The Cambridge Companion to Canadian Literature This book offers a comprehensive and lively introduction to major writers, genres, and topics in Canadian literature. Addressing traditional assumptions and current issues, contributors pay attention to the social, political, and eco- nomic developments that have informed literary events. Broad surveys of fic- tion, drama, and poetry are complemented by chapters on Aboriginal writing, autobiography, literary criticism, writing by women, and the emergence of urban writing in a country historically defined by its regions. Also discussed are genres that have a special place in Canadian literature, such as nature-writing, exploration- and travel-writing, and short fiction. Although the emphasis is on literature in English, a substantial chapter on francophone writing is included. Eva-Marie Kroller¨ is Professor at the Department of English, University of British Columbia, Vancouver. Her books include Canadian Travellers in Europe (1987), George Bowering: Bright Circles of Colour (1992), the only book on Canada’s first poet laureate currently available, and Pacific Encoun- ters: The Production of Self and Other (coedited, 1997). © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-89131-8 - The Cambridge Companion to Canadian Literature Edited by Eva-Marie Kröller Frontmatter More information © in this
