The Memory of Nature in Aboriginal, Canadian and American Contexts

Pages : 382
Book Description
This volume engages the reader’s interest in the relationship that binds man to nature, a relationship which makes itself manifest through certain literary or visual artefacts produced by Native or non-Native writers and artists. It ranges from the study of literatures (mainly from Canada – including Quebec and Acadia – but also from Britain, the United States of America, France, Turkey, and Australia) to the exploration of films, photographs, paintings and sculptures produced by Aboriginal artists from North America. Thanks to a relational paradigm founded on spatial and temporal enlargement, it re-imagines the critical outlook on indigenous production by instigating a dialogue between endogenous and exogenous scholars, novelists and artists, and by weaving together interdisciplinary approaches spanning anthropology, geology, ecocriticism and the study of myths. From the writings by Scott Momaday to those by Tomson Highway, from Pauline Johnson to Louise Erdrich, or from the photographs by William McFarlane Notman and Edward Burtynsky or the films by Randy Redroad to the paintings by Emily Carr, it explores art as the sedimentation of nature. It simultaneously interrogates the representation of nature and the nature of representation as a geological and generic process inscribed in the history of mankind. Without eclipsing differences and imposing a reified Eurocentric critical discourse upon indigenous productions, this volume does not colonize indigenous texts or indulge in cultural appropriation of works of art, but looks for historical, mythological or geological traces of the past; a past characterized by the intimacy between man and animal, man and rock, or man and plant, a past which is allowed to resurface through the creative and critical outlooks that are bestowed upon its subjacent or subterranean existence. It resurfaces, not as nostalgic memory but as an interactive fertilization giving the present a new life in which the non-human provides a key to the understanding of the human bond to nature.

Book Description
Canadian Writers in 1984 is a special double length, hardback edition of the 100th issue of Canadian Literature. The book not only celebrates a publishing landmark in the history of the journal but also reflects the incredible richness of Canada's contemporary literary scene. The collection features the work of outstanding new writers as well as poems and essays written especially for this issue by Canada's most famous poets, novelists, dramatists, and essayists. Among the 29 essayists are Matt Cohen, Timothy Findley, Naim Kattan, Irving Layton, Dorothy Livesay, Eli Mandel, Jane Rule, Aritha Van Herk, and George Woodcock. The writings exhibit a diversity of styles and themes: Margaret Laurence on war and peace, Eric Nicol on commercial writing, Marian Engel on starting a new novel, James Reaney on regionalism, David Watmough on places, and David Helwig on arguing with God. The poets comprise a virtual "Who's Who" in Canadian poetry today: Margaret Atwood, Bill Bissett, Barry Dempster, Joy Kogawa, Dennis Lee, George McWhirter, Susan Musgrave, Michael Ondaatje, Al Purdy, Robin Skelton, Raymond Souster, and Tom Wayman are among over 60 of the poets represented. Prefaces to the book have been contributed by Governor General Edward Schreyer; Dr. George Pederson, President of the University of British Columbia; and Canada's grand man of letters, Mavor Moore.
