    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-15962-4 — The Cambridge Companion to Canadian Literature Edited by Eva-Marie Kröller Frontmatter More Information The Cambridge Companion to Canadian Literature This fully revised second edition of The Cambridge Companion to Canadian Literature offers a comprehensive introduction to major writers, genres, and topics. For this edition several chapters have been completely re-written to relect major developments in Canadian literature since 2004. Surveys of ic- tion, drama, and poetry are complemented by chapters on Aboriginal writ- ing, autobiography, literary criticism, writing by women, and the emergence of urban writing. Areas of research that have expanded since the irst edition include environmental concerns and questions of sexuality which are freshly explored across several different chapters. A substantial chapter on franco- phone writing is included. Authors such as Margaret Atwood, noted for her experiments in multiple literary genres, are given full consideration, as is the work of authors who have achieved major recognition, such as Alice Munro, recipient of the Nobel Prize for literature. Eva-Marie Kröller edited the Cambridge Companion to Canadian Literature (irst edn., 2004) and, with Coral Ann Howells, the Cambridge History of Canadian Literature (2009). She has published widely on travel writing and cultural semiotics, and won a Killam Research Prize as well as the Distin- guished Editor Award of the Council of Editors of Learned Journals for her work as editor of the journal Canadian

  • The Watch That Ends the Night Hugh Maclennan (Macmillan, 1959, Now Available from Mcgill-Queen’S) I Knew Hugh Maclennan Well
    the storytellers book club presents The Watch That Ends the Night Hugh MacLennan (Macmillan, 1959, now available from McGill-Queen’s) I knew Hugh MacLennan well. I knew him in the 1960s first as a friend and neighbour at his cottage at North Hatley, in the Eastern Townships, then as his editor (for his last novel, Voices in Time), and as his publisher. After his death in 1990, I created the anthology Hugh MacLennan’s Best, selected from all of his work, fiction and non-fiction. In 2013, when Two Solitudes was selected as a finalist for Canada Reads, I was asked by the CBC to speak on Hugh’s behalf, which was a very great honour. Although I can claim to have edited all of the other four books that I have selected for this book club, I did not edit The Watch That Ends the Night, which I think is Hugh MacLennan’s best book. It was published in 1959, when I was still in high school (although I still remember browsing through the paperback version at a Glasgow Station book stall, attracted by the exciting — if misleading — log- ging scene on the cover. Ah, those publishers!). Hugh had spent many years writing it. Elspeth Cameron’s defini- tive biography Hugh MacLennan: A Writer’s Life shows that as far back as July 1954 he had felt able to say that he had the whole novel drafted “from beginning to end,” but it took him several years to finish it. One reason was Hugh’s determination to make sure that this, a sig- nificant novel dealing with major themes, was not going to be rushed.

  • QC Fiction in EN
    QUEBEC FICTIO I EGLISH DURIG THE 1980S: 1 A CASE STUDY I MARGIALITY Linda Leith I The unique position of Quebec writers in the English language 2 and the peculiarities of the fiction they have been publishing during the 1980s are best understood in the light of recent socio-political and cultural changes within Quebec and in Canada as a whole. Caught up as no other English-Canadian writers have been caught up in the maelstrom of change, and living as no other English-Canadian writers live in a society with a French face, these writers have produced a body of work quite distinct in some ways from other contemporary English-Canadian fiction. Much of my thinking about this writing is inspired by recent work on the formation of literary canons and on the literary production of marginal social groups. It owes a particular debt to the work of Raymond Williams, who devoted much of his career to exploring the possibilities of discussing English literature and society together while respecting the uniqueness of specific texts. This is a debt not only to Williams's most general observation that "as a society changes, its literature changes" (1965, 268), and to his comments on the formation of a literary tradition, but also to his suggestive, though not wholly applicable, account of the interrelations between dominant and alternative or oppositional aspects at a given historical moment. Williams's distinction between two different kinds of alternatives on a status quo, which he terms the "residual" and the "emergent" (1977, 121-27), is helpful in discussions of the cultural manifestations of the middle class in nineteenth century Britain; it is not applicable in the present context of English Quebec fiction, which requires an assessment of a social group linked not along class lines but rather along linguistic and cultural lines.

  • A Defense of Publicity Frank Davey University of Western Ontario
    A Defense of Publicity Frank Davey University of Western Ontario 1. minimum responsibility of academics as citizens of a national andA a global society, I suggest, is to respond to the off campus when asked about matters for which we have proven expertise—in my own case to respond to a request to speak to a Canadian literature reading group, to serve on an awards jury, to answer invitations to speak to Canadianists abroad, to investigate a pedagogy question for a government ministry, to comment on a book or an author’s death or the construction of a news story if telephoned by a newspaper or radio station. Those outside the academy don’t necessarily view us as especially objective, but they often believe that we have information they may not have or questions they have not thought to ask. And what about those occasions when one is not asked but one suspects that one’s knowledge might change events outside the academy were it disseminated there? Don’t we still have a responsibility to educate—not necessarily to change minds but to enlarge them? The expertise which most qualifies me and many others to speak out on public issues is interpreting images, situations, promises, and various speech acts. It also qualifies some of those off campus, such as cbc’s Terry O’Reilly, host of the program “Under the Influence.” U.S. poet Charles Bern ESC 38.2 (June 2012): 8–12 stein has repeatedly argued that it is only through a society’s intellectuals being willing to contribute to “the education of the public at large” that a society can be “innovative, vibrant, and socially responsible” (“Poet” 28) and its politics avoid stagnation.

Bennett Metcalfe’s 1985 biography of Roderick Haig-Brown, A Man of Some Importance. Chancellor of the University of Victoria from 1970 to 1973, Haig- Brown (1908-76) was an early British Columbia environmentalist, a sometime logger, trapper and fisherman, and a long-serving magistrate of the juvenile court of Campbell River. According to his biographer, he also received the first Governor General’s Medal for Juvenile Literature for his 1948 book, Saltwater Summer.1 Even so, Haig-Brown’s name and book appear nowhere on the official list of award-winners maintained by the Canada Council for the Arts: the Cumulative List of Winners of the Governor General’s Literary Awards / Liste cumulative des lauréates et des lauréats des Prix littéraires du Gouverneur général.2 Explaining the omission is not straightforward. The most plausible explanation is that Haig-Brown was likely the first (and to date the only) author to receive a Governor General’s Citation for his work,3 rather than the then-traditional medal. In the minds of some, it * Andrew Irvine holds the position of Professor of Philosophy at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver. 1 E.

  • Margaret Atwood Bibliography 2015.Pdf
    Bibliography 2015 Ashley Thomson and Shoshannah Ganz This year’s bibliography, like its predecessors, is comprehensive but not complete. References that we have uncovered—almost always theses and dissertations—that are not available even through interlibrary loan, have not been included. On the other hand, citations from past years that were missed in earlier bibliographies appear in this one so long as they are accessible. Those who would like to examine earlier bibliographies may now access them full-text, starting in 2007, in Laurentian University’s Institutional Repository in the Library and Archives section zone.biblio.laurentian.ca/dspace/?locale=en. The current bibliography has been embargoed until the next edition is available. Users will also note a significant number of links to full-text items. That said—and particularly in the case of Atwood’s own commentary and opinion pieces—the bibliography reproduces much if not all of what is available online, since what is accessible now may not be in the future. There has also been a change in editing practice—instead of copying authors’ abstracts, we have modified some to ensure greater clarity. We have not, however, standardized the spelling. There are a number of people to thank: Drs. Reingard M. Nischik, Shannon Hengen, Libby Marinilli (an Italian specialist), and Desmond Maley (a librarian at Laurentian University). Thanks as well to Dorothy Robb of the library’s interlibrary loan section. Finally, thanks to the ever-patient Karma Waltonen, editor of this journal. As always, we would appreciate that any corrections to this year’s edition or contributions to the 2016 edition be sent to [email protected] or [email protected].

Revised Edition. Toronto: McClelland and Stewart, 1978. 145 P-, paper, $6.95 IsBN o-77Io-3362-I The compilers of CanadianFiction: An Annotated Bibliography state that they began their book 'in a mood of incredulity'. I finished it in the same mood. The publishers claim coverage of 'all fiction titles - novels and story collections - by and about Canadians published to the end of 1974, including out-of-print titles, plus French- language Canadian titles in translation'; but the introduction reveals far more modest aims: 'only authors who had at least one work in print during 1973 or 1974 are listed' and 'only in-print works are annotated'. Thus, while twenty-seven titles by James De Mille (variously spelt Demille or De Mille in the book) are listed, only three of these are annotated, two of which are University of Toronto Press reprints available only to libraries, though the compilers do not give this information. For in-print titles, Fee and Cawker give the date of first publication, place and date of current publication and publisher's name, binding description (cloth or paper), price and IsmN, a brief indication of setting, and annotation in the form of plot summary. Eight other people are given acknowledgements for providing annotations, and these vary considerably from author to author.

This land is the territory of the Hu- ron-Wendat and Petun First Nations, the Seneca, and most recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit River. The territory was the subject of the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, an agreement between the Iroquois Confederacy and Confederacy of the Ojibwe and allied nations to peaceably share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes. Today, the meeting place of Toronto is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work in the community, on this territory. We are also mindful of broken covenants and the need to strive to make right with all our relations. We acknowledge financial support for our publishing activities: the Government of Canada through the Canada Book Fund; the Government of Ontario through the Ontario Arts Council, Ontario Creates, and the Ontario Book Publishing Tax Credit.
