In the processes of learning how to read our world, how could we free the mind, lift the spirit, open perception, and forge connections? What are multiple literacies? These were the questions that drove the creation of a unique conference dedicated to the ideals and ideas of literacy.

  • A Comparative Study of Margaret Laurence's the Diviners and Lee Maracle's Ravensong
    IRjRECONCILABLE DIFFERENCES?: LAURENCE AND MARACLE IR/RECONCILABLE DIFFERENCES?: A COMPARATIVE STU~Y OF MARGARET LAURENCE J' S THE DIVIl'JERS AND LEE MARACLE'S RA VENSONG By KRISTI LAURIDSEN, Hans. B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Masters of Arts McMaster University (c) Copyright by Kristi Lauridsen, September 1994 MASTER OF ARTS (1994) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (English) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Ir/reconcilable Differences?: A Comparative Study of Margaret Laurence's The Di v~lners and Lee Maracle's Ravensong AUTHOR: Kristi Lauridsen, Hons. B.A. (University of Victoria) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Roger Hyman NUMBER OF PAGES: v, 99 ii Abstract This thesis compares the presentation of Native characters and Native voice in Margaret Laurence's ~rhe Di viners and Lee ~-:'Iaracle f s Ravensong. The purpose of the project is twofold: to evaluate Maracle's claim that Laurence's portrayal of the ~1etis people is racist, and to describe how Maracle challenges the racism she perceives in White writing about Native peoples. The introduction addresses the theoretical challenges facing White academics who want to engage critically with Native texts. The first chapter examines how each author's social affiliations and political priorities determine the way that she represents Native characters, and Native/White interaction, in her fictional writing. Particular attention is paid to the writers' perceptions of the relationship between feminist and anti-racist interests. Chapter Two summarizes the history of linguistic tyranny that has threatened Native cultural voice in Canada.
