Focusing on narratological rather than thematic elements, the book represents a systematic application of the insights and analytical tools of reader-reception theory, in particular the models proposed by Wolfgang Iser and Hans Robert Jauss. Placing the emphasis on the text and its effects rather than on the historical or psycho-sociological genesis of the text, the author invokes the models and paradigms of other literatures to establish a broader cultural context permitting the significance of a literature to emerge as a carrier of meaning in and beyond the culture that produces it. Tracing a critical path from Hugh MacLennan's hierarchic romance structures and Gabrielle Roy's social realism to the metafictions of Hubert Aquin and Timothy Findley, the author reveals that the novel's narratological features themselves are often closely linked with ideological positions.Library of the Canadian review of comparative literature ;v. 8.Canadian fiction20th centuryHistory and criticismFrench-Canadian fiction20th centuryHistory and criticismCanadian fictionHistory and criticism.French-Canadian fictionHistory and criticism.810.99287813.09Heidenreich Rosmarin Elfriede1943-1213104MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910154968103321The postwar novel in Canada2801450UNINA
