The is the first collection translated into English of what critics are saying in French about Quebec writing. Ten carefully selected articles are arranged under the heading of 'backgrounds' and 'themes and genres.' All are general in scope: rather than focusing on the work of particular writers, they present a broad view of Quebec literature and culture, and give a representative sampling of the concerns and approaches of Quebec critics over the last twenty years. In the introduction, Larry Shouldice traces the origin and evolution and Quebec criticism, past and present trends, and changing direction. He also discusses the importance of nationalism in Quebec writing, and outlines the relationship between Quebec literature and other national literatures, particularly that of France. A selected bibliography suggests sources for further reading. No study of French-Canadian literature can be completely without reference to the rich and diverse body of criticism that has developed along with it. This is a unique introduction for English-speaking readers, one that should be required reading for all courses in Canadian literature and culture.

Download Kamouraska Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
A classic of Canadian literature by the great Quebecoise writer, Kamouraska is based on a real nineteenth-century love-triangle in rural Quebec. It paints a poetic and terrifying tableau of the life of Elisabeth d'Aulnieres: her marriage to Antoine Tassy, squire of Kamouraska; his violent murder; and her passion for George Nelson, an American doctor. Passionate and evocative, Kamouraska is the timeless story of one woman's destructive commitment to an ideal love. Translated into seven languages, Kamouraska won the Paris book prize and was made into a landmark feature film by Claude Jutra. This edition features a brilliant new introduction by Noah Richler.

In the last seventy years, Quebec has changed from a society dominated by the social edicts of the Catholic Church and the economic interests of anglophone business leaders to a more secular culture that frequently elects separatist political parties and has developed the most comprehensive welfare state in North America. In Contemporary Quebec, leading scholars raise provocative questions about the ways in which Quebec has been transformed since the Second World War and offer competing interpretations of the reasons for the province's quiet and radical revolutions.
