Book Synopsis Anthologizing Canadian Literature by : Robert Lecker
Download or read book Anthologizing Canadian Literature written by Robert Lecker and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2015-11-02 with total page 535 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first collection of critical essays devoted to the study of English-Canadian literary anthologies brings together the work of thirteen prominent critics to investigate anthology formation in Canada and answer these key questions: Why are there so many literary anthologies in Canada, and how can we trace their history? What role have anthologies played in the formation of Canadian literary taste? How have anthologies influenced the training of students from generation to generation? What literary values do the editors of various anthologies tend to support, and how do these values affect canon formation in Canada? How have different genres fared in the creation of literary anthologies? How do Canadian anthologies transmit ideas about gender, region, ideology, and nation? Specific essays focus on anthologies as national metaphors, the controversies surrounding early literary collections, representations of First Nations peoples in anthologies, and the ways in which various editors have understood exploration narratives. In addition, the collection examines the representation of women in Canadian anthologies, the use of anthologies as teaching tools, and the creation of some very odd Canadian anthologies along the way.
Book Synopsis The Canadian Don Quixote by : David R. Beasley
Download or read book The Canadian Don Quixote written by David R. Beasley and published by David Beasley. This book was released on 2004 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richardson (1796-1852) born in Newark, Upper Canada and dying in New York City, laid the foundations of Canadian literature. The author of Wacousta and The Canadian Brothers had an adventurous, energetic life, as this standard biography so well reveals. “Beasley’s whole work teems with such careful, loving research and this makes his biography of Richardson not only a good read but the fulfillment of what's usually called 'an aching void. ’”— James Reaney, poet and playwright. “... whose life was so filled with dramatic events, whose career brought him in contact with important historical figures and episodes, and who first showed that Canadian history was interesting enough to be matter for literature.” —George Woodcock, The Globe and Ma
Book Synopsis Between Empire and Republic by : Oana Godeanu-Kenworthy
Download or read book Between Empire and Republic written by Oana Godeanu-Kenworthy and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-01-26 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1837, a small group of rebels proclaimed the short-lived Republic of Canada. Between then and the Act of Confederation of 1867, colonial Canadians tried to imagine the future of their communities in North America. The choice between monarchy and republicanism shaped both colonial self-images and images of the United States; it also drove the political deliberations that eventually united the colonies of British North America into a self-governing Dominion under the British Crown. Between Empire and Republic is a thematic exploration of the political discourse embedded in the literary output of the period. Colonial authors Susanna Moodie, Th. Ch. Haliburton, and John Richardson enjoyed transatlantic popularity and explained colonial realities to their British, Canadian, and American readership. Collectively, their writings serve as the lens into colonial Canadian perceptions of American and British political ideas and institutions. Between Empire and Republic discusses North America as a literary contact zone where British principles of constitutional monarchy competed with American ideas of republicanism and democratic self-government. The author argues that political ideas in pre-Confederation Canada filtered into the literary works of the time, creating two settler-colonial communities whose recognizable cultural characteristics echoed public attitudes towards the political projects underpinning them.

Book Synopsis Recovering Canada's First Novelist by : Catherine Sheldrick Ross
Download or read book Recovering Canada's First Novelist written by Catherine Sheldrick Ross and published by The Porcupine's Quill. This book was released on 1984 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: `An introduction, six papers from the conference at the University of Western Ontario and a brief biographical note constitute the first ``full scale scholarly examination'' of Canada's earliest novelist. But neither the editor nor her team of biographer, textual critic, literary historian and literary critics are under any delusions; to reconstruct the life, work and reputation of the mercurial Major John Richardson after one hundred years of comparative neglect is not the work of a single moment, nor of a single conference. One ought perhaps to leave unasked the question if there is any other nation's literary primogenitor who, with a few notable exceptions, has been so poorly served by the literary and academic community; particularly when, as Michael Hurley argues, so many of Richardson's obsessions are equally those of contemporary Canadian writing. `This short collection makes an impressive start on that grand task of refurbishment; especially since it, wisely, clears some of the rank vegetation which has encroached on Richardson during the years of neglect. Carl Klinck, David Beasley and Douglas Cronk open the discussion by usefully telling us what is not helpful to think about: Morton (in Wacousta) was not modelled on John Norton, the champion of Indian rights; the biography reveals a more urbane and likeable man than legend reports; and one must handle the received texts with considerable care until a more careful editor has rendered what Richardson actually wrote and not what American publishers pirated. Until a more reputable text emerges it is difficult for literary critics to go to work, but I.S. MacLaren, Jay Macpherson and Michael Hurley each attempt to place Richardson within the mainstream of the Anglo-American Gothic tradition. -- David Richards, British Journal of Canadian Studies
