Description

This fully revised second edition of The Cambridge Companion to Canadian Literature offers a comprehensive introduction to major writers, genres and topics.

For this edition several chapters have been completely rewritten to reflect major developments in Canadian literature since 2004.

Surveys of fiction, drama and poetry are complemented by chapters on Aboriginal writing, autobiography, literary criticism, writing by women and the emergence of urban writing.

Areas of research that have expanded since the first edition include environmental concerns and questions of sexuality which are freshly explored across several different chapters.

A substantial chapter on francophone writing is included.

Authors such as Margaret Atwood, noted for her experiments in multiple literary genres, are given full consideration, as is the work of authors who have achieved major recognition, such as Alice Munro, recipient of the Nobel Prize for literature.
