S idney J. Stephen ~ - - : ! • . ? " - • f ■ i - l '' ■ ■ - ADAM IN EXILE: A. M. KLEIN’S PORTRAIT OF THE POET AS LANDSCAPE Tom Marshall ends his introduction to A. M. Klein (Toronto: The Ryerson Press, 1970) by expressing the opinion that t Klein has bequeathed to his successors the task of creating their country. The emphasis on space and landscape in “Grain Elevator” and “Portrait of the Poet as Landscape” is echoed in the work of Margaret Atwood and Margaret Avison. Klein’s “nth Adam”, the unacknowledged legislator of a new Canada of the spirit, may be found in the poems of Gwendolyn MacEwen and joe Rosenblatt, and even in Cohen’s Beautiful Losers (p. 25). Marshall’s point is well taken, even if one does not completely agree with his closing remark that Klein is “the man who has come closer than any other Canadian Poet to greatness” (p 25). The phrase “nth Adam” is taken from “Portrait of the Poet as Landscape”, and this poem, coming as it does after nearly twenty years of writing and publishing poetry1 appears to present a view on what a poet’s role might be in the society in which he finds himself. For this reason alone, if for no other, the poem might be accorded a close reading, an exploration of the idea of the “poet-as-Adam” which seems to have been a personal reflection of the poet. •v Much of Klein’s work is soundly based in Jewish tradition, and his knowledge of (and esteem for) that tradition is always evident, though as M. -

F. HALL A QUARTERLY OF CRITICISM AND R6VI6W AN ABSENCE OF UTOPIAS LIITERATURES are defined as much by their lacks as by their abundances, and it is obviously significant that in the whole of Canadian writing there has appeared only one Utopian novel of any real interest; it is significant in terms of our society as much as of our literature. The book in question is A Strange Manuscript Found in a Copper Cylinder. It was written in the 1870's and published in 1888, eight years after the death of its author, James de Mille, a professor of English at Dalhousie, who combined teach- ing with the compulsive production of popular novels ; by the time of his death at the age of 46 he had already thirty volumes to his credit, but only A Strange Manuscript has any lasting interest. It has been revived as one of the reprints in the New Canadian Library (McClelland & Stewart, $2.75), with an introduction by R. -
Selected Poems by Merle Amodeo
Canadian Studies. Language and Literature MARVIN ORBACH, MERLE AMODEO: CANADIAN POETS, UNIVERSAL POETS M.Sc. Miguel Ángel Olivé Iglesias. Associate Professor. University of Holguín, Cuba Abstract This paper aims at revealing universality in Marvin Orbach, an outstanding Canadian book collector and poet, and Merle Amodeo, an exquisite Canadian poet and writer. Orbach´s poems were taken from Redwing, book published by CCLA Hidden Brook Press, Canada in 2018; and Amodeo´s poems from her book After Love, Library of Congress, USA, 2014. Thus, the paper unveils for the general reader the transcendental scope of these two figures of Canadian culture. In view of the fact that they are able to recreate and memorialize their feelings and contexts where they live, and show their capacities to discern beyond the grid of nature, society and human experience, directly and masterfully exposing them, it can be safely stated that both Orbach and Amodeo reach that point where what is singular in them acquires universality, and in return what is universal crystallizes in their singularity. Key Words: universality, Orbach, Redwing, Amodeo, After Love Introduction My connection with universal poetry began during my college years. I enjoyed great English and American classics so much that I even memorized many of their poems. It proved very useful later in my professional career, as I would read excerpts from poems to my students in class. Canada, and Canadian poets, had less presence on the curricular map at the time. Fortunately, I had the chance to become acquainted with Canadian poetry through the Canada Cuba Literary Alliance (CCLA), founded by Richard and Kimberley Grove back in 2004. -
Heritage Fair Projects - Guide to Sources

Box 1000, Charlottetown Prince Edward Island C1A 7M4 (902) 368-4290 fax (902) 368-6327 www.gov.pe.ca/cca (Click Public Archives & Records Office) HERITAGE FAIR PROJECTS - GUIDE TO SOURCES GUIDELINES The Heritage Fair is meant to develop and increase awareness and interest in Canadian history. Your project must have a Canadian theme such as history, geography or heritage whether it is local, national or international. Your teacher will also have certain guidelines which you will need to follow. This booklet has been created to facilitate research for Heritage Fair projects. This guide contains research tips, sources of information, and sample topics. RESEARCH TIPS Getting started Identify a topic. This should be something of interest to you. Be as specific as possible, but be prepared to broaden your topic, especially if it is not truly regional. See Sample Topics. Give yourself plenty of time. Research takes time and sometimes you have to start over if there is not enough information available on your topic. Schedule your time to work on the project especially if working with a partner. Make an outline. Your outline is your strategy. Develop a series of questions relating to the information you need to find. Use these questions to organize and plan your research. It is a good idea to list keywords related to your topic (this will help in catalogue and online searches). Make a list of possible sources of information. Use a variety of sources but try to limit Internet and anecdotal sources. Browse general sources such as encyclopedias and handbooks to gather some background information on your topic. -

Larry McDonald The Politics of Influence: Birney, Scott, Livesay and the Influence of Politics The immediate focus of this essay is the manner in which most criti cism of Dorothy Livesay, Frank Scott and Ear le Birney has worked to obscure the influence of politics on their writing. More specifically (because the actual extent of political influence must be set aside for the moment), my aim is to demonstrate that dominant critical approaches have foreclosed any possibility of political influence on the writing by disguising, diminishing or eliminating the role that politics played in their lives. The narrow question of how these writers have been packaged for general consumption is best appreciated, however, if viewed as representative of the way that criticism has neglected a key aspect of Canadian literary history. I refer to a suppressed tradition of affiliations, remarkable in both range and intensity, between Cana dian writers and socialist ideology. The affiliations between our writers and socialist thought have taken many different forms: some have declared their socialist sympa thies in essays and journalism (Archibald Lampman, Margaret Lau rence, Kenneth Leslie); some worked long and hard for left-wing organizations or political parties (Earle Birney for the Trotskyists, Dorothy Lives ay for the Communists, Frank Scott for the CCF I NDP, David Fennario for the Socialist Labour Party); some stood for politi cal office (F. P. Grove, A. M. Klein, Phyllis Webb, Robin Mathews); some were involved with literary journals that promoted a socialist aesthetic (John Sutherland, Irving Layton, Louis Dudek, Patrick Anderson, Milton Acorn, Al Purdy, Miriam Waddington, Margaret Atwood). -

Douglas Barbour Review Article Poetry Chronicle V: It's interesting how we've been told over and over again that somehow in the seventies all the promises of the sixties have been broken. We are asked to believe that the glories of art and religiosity and politics have all faded. Thus the marvelous sense of exploration and opening new doors in poetry must be a thing of the past and whatever is being written today, however well done, cannot possibly match the poetry of the sixties in terms of breaking new ground. But, surely, I reply, the new ground is always there to be broken and art comes from individual artists not decades? At any rate, the spiritual depression many peo ple seem to speak from in the seventies is not mine, and to my eye (even if most of the young writers lack the sense of language a whole generation in the sixties had) some extraordinarily exciting writing is taking place (admittedly, much of it from writers who began in the sixties-my point is that they have not died with the decade). Out of around forty books this time through, about five truly put me off, most are good, if not finally overwhelming, and a few are among the best books I've come across this decade. A search through previous 'chronicles' would reveal at least one, sometimes two or three, super books per year: that's a lot of really good poetry, no matter how you look at it. The world may indeed be falling apart but Canadian poetry is not.
