These scholarly essays do not wait patiently. They do not long for peace, order,
and good government in Canadian literary criticism. They are not haunted
by our lack of ghosts. A testament to the power of unruly imaginings, this
collection rips into the fabric of Canadian literary history and its cognitive
institutions and weaves new possibilities for our global self-positioning.
Argumentative, readable, ultimately hopeful
-
this is what critical scholarship
can look like in the service of genuine social change.

This collection of essays studies the cultural and literary contexts of narrative
texts produced in English Canada over the last forty years. It takes as its
starting point the nationalist movement of the
1960s
and
70s,
when the
supposed absence or weakness of a national identity became the touchstone
for official discourse. The sense of tradition that was then created has survived
to the present.
In the decades following the
1970s,
however, critics, artists, and writers
repeatedly questioned such a model of national identity, still fragile and in
need of articulation, by reading the nation from alternative perspectives
such as multiculturalism, environmentalism, (neo)regionalism, feminism,
and postcolonialism. The contributors to this volume suggest that the
artistic and cultural flowering Canada is experiencing at the beginning of the
twenty-first century is, to a great extent, based on the dismantlement of images
constructed to represent the nation forty years ago. Through their readings
of representative primary texts, through their contextual analysis, and with
their methodological tools, the authors offer a tapestry of alternative approaches
to that process of dismantlement. Together, they read as an unruly Penelopiad,
their unravelling readings self-consciously interrogating Canada s (lack of) ghosts.
