Writing the Empire
Literary Histories
This chapter discusses national literary histories in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the South Pacific and summarises the book's main findings regarding the construction and revision of narratives of national identity since 1950. In colonial and postcolonial cultures, literary history is often based on a paradox that says much about their evolving sense of collective identity, but perhaps even more about the strains within it. The chapter co…
Travels and Identities
“Une femme bien en vue”
As the first Chinese-Canadian woman to occupy the position of Governor-General of Canada, Adrienne Clarkson attracted special attention from the start of her appointment. However, both the praise for her performance and the criticism of her alleged shortcomings drew extensively on reports in the media that accompanied her previous work, over several decades, as a journalist, editor, and diplomat. Clarkson’s travels in the company of representativ…
The Cambridge History of Canadian Literature
From Aboriginal writing to Margaret Atwood, this is a complete English-language history of Canadian writing in English and French from its beginnings. The multi-authored volume pays special attention to works from the 1960s and after, to multicultural and indigenous writing, popular literature, and the interaction of anglophone and francophone cultures throughout Canadian history. Established genres such as fiction, drama and poetry are discussed…
Canadian Travellers in Europe, 1851-1900
This book provides both a detailed survey of Canadian travel writing in the nineteenth century and an unusual perspective on Canadian cultural history. The Canadians who wrote about their experiences abroad during the era of mass travel which followed the advent of the steamship reveal much about themselves and their own country as well. Who were these travellers, why did they travel, and what did they expect to see? In answering these questions,…
Sur les rivages d'un autre âge
David Harvey, auteur de The Condition of Postmodernity , n'est pas le seul à critiquer le postmodernisme, et à prétendre que l'idéologie réactionnaire (comme toute idéologie) peut être à la fois sapée et confirmée. Cet article explore les duplicités de l'éthique postmoderne par une comparaison détaillée des écrits de Waugh et de Findley. Plusieurs uvres de Findley posent la question du rapport entre l'éthique et l'esthétique, tel qu'il apparaît d…

Le Mouton de Troie
Tuons saint Jean-Baptiste! Brulons le carton-pate des traditions avec lequel on voulu mythifier notre esclavage. Apprenons l'orgueil d'etre hommes. Affirmons fortement notre independance. Et ecrasons de notre liberte robuste le paternalisme compatissant ou meprisant des politiciens, des papas-patrons et des predicateurs de defaites et de soumissions.... --Pierre Vallieres, Negres blancs de l'Amerique (58) In late June of 1990, the Meech Lake Acco…
