(Signature) Department of The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date 22 ‘( (c/s_ DE-6 (2188) 11 Abstract The latent (androcentric) eroticism of rape has been exploited in Western culture, from mythology through to a contemporary entertainment industry founded on a cultural predilection for the representation of violence against women. In literature the figure of Woman as Victim has evolved according to shifting fashions and (male) desires until, in contemporary avant-garde writings, themes of sexual violence perform an intrinsic role in sophisticated textual praxis, Woman’s body becoming the playground for male artistic expression and textual experimentation. -

2010-2011 Annual Report Blue Metropolis Foundation 2 MESSAGE from the CHAIR of the BOARD of DIRECTORS
bluemetropolis.org November 2011 Annual Report 2010-2011 Blue Metropolis Foundation 2 MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS Blue Metropolis is much more than a great literary festival. It is a crucial cultural institution in an ever changing cultural and demographic landscape. And so it is with great pleasure and honour that I chair the Board of Directors of this astonishing organization. Since no individual organization or actor has the resources to singlehandedly produce meaningful change in society, Blue Metropolis Foundation has, since its beginning, forged strong partnerships with a variety of stakeholders in Montreal, Quebec, Canada and internationally. It has maintained these partnerships in 2010-2011, which has been a transitional year for the Foundation. The Board of Directors is proud of, and has supported, several noteworthy achievements: • a successful new-look festival, with a 50 percent increase in ticket sales and over 22,000 visitors in attendance • the development of new and innovative partnerships for our educational programmes and digital ventures • a significant reduction of our fixed costs, including a restructuring of the staff for even better productivity and to begin repaying the accumulated deficit • a bold fundraising campaign resulting in close to $500,000 from private donors Thank you to William St-Hilaire and her team for a successful transition and a memorable Festival. And special thanks to Linda Leith, the remarkable founder of Blue Metropolis, who resigned at the end of 2010. Cameron Charlebois Chair of the Board of Directors Vice President, Real Estate, Quebec Canada Lands Company 3 MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT, GENERAL MANAGER AND ARTISTIC DIRECTOR When I arrived in January, I quickly realized the extent to which the Foundation’s activities are rich and diverse, and that the audiences which benefit from them are extremely varied. -

Everything's on the Table with Our Fall 2017
/ – Everything’s on the table this fall. With over fifty years of irreverent literary history filling the shelves, our dusty old coach house doesn’t readily evoke bright lights and cold stainless steel. But spend some time watching Tony, our Coach House printer, square up a freshly printed press sheet, or take one look at our guillotine cutter, and you might begin to see a little of the surgical side that complements our love of the human and the messy. So, with a nod to the more exacting angels of our nature, this fall we’re putting everything on the table to see what’s inside. Our fall fiction titles artfully dissect questions surrounding creation, ownership, and people in disrepair. Martha Baillie’s If Clara is a compelling exploration of whose voices are heard in the modern din. And the stories in The Doll’s Alphabet , Camilla Grudova’s grotesquely enchanting debut, do more than get under a reader’s skin – they make purposeful incisions. Two new Exploded Views titles certainly add to the series’s reputation for innovative and probing work. In Curry , Naben Ruthnum grapples with the dish in its manifold culinary and cultural varieties, while Kelli María Korducki’s Hard To Do lays bare the surprising, feminist history of breaking up . In poetry, Sina Queyras puts Sylvia Plath’s Ariel , along with her own family baggage, under the knife. Jay Ritchie brings unpar - alleled wit to the everyday in Cheer Up, Jay Ritchie . And, unlike a patient etherized upon a table, Jeramy Dodds’ Drakkar Noir refuses to lie still. -

La fragmentation atomique de la bulle informatique dans laquelle nous circulons n’a pas fini de s’agrandir, en une sorte de Big Bang dont nous ignorons s’il conduira à un Big Crunch.

MartinS. Spigelman "Des Paroles en L'Air": Quebec, Minority Rights and the New Brunswick Schools Question. In 1867 the Acadian population of New Brunswick was drawn against its will into the new Canadian confederation. Once the British North America Act was a "fait accompli", however, the Acadians were hopeful about what they might expect from the new nation and especially from Quebec: Une nouvelle phase de notre existence comme peuple acadian, apparait aujourd'hui, c'est celle de !'union intime qui devra exister entre le Canada - Fran~ais et I'Acadie-Fran~ais . Dorenavant notre sort sera le meme que celui de nos compatriotes ... Soyons done unis et travaillons ensemble a notre propre preservation. ! No longer able to resist confederation, the Acadians hoped some positive good might come from it and expectations were indeed high. The "spirit of confederation", the respect for denominational schools embodied in the constitution, the recognition of the French language might all be ex tended to 1' A cadi e. Leading Quebecois politicians in Ottawa might take the Acadians under their wing and provide not only political support but also that much needed patronage to this subsistentlevel community. The Acadians, culturally strong but numerically weak,2 could possibly even hope for a repeat of the Madawaska experience where there "arrivent continuellement des immigrants canadiens qui renforcent d'annee en annee Ia population fran~;aise. " 3 The Acadians, lacking effective leaders capable of dealing with the larger New Brunswick and Canadian polity, still believed that "out siders" could fight their battles for them. They looked to Quebec for fraternal support in their continuing struggle for survival. -
