Addressing traditional assumptions and current issues, contributors pay attention to the social, political and economic developments that have informed literary events. Broad 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 in a country historically defined by its regions. Also discussed are genres that have a special place in Canadian literature, such as nature-writing, exploration and travel-writing, and short fiction. Athough the emphasis is on literature in English, a substantial chapter on francophone writing is included. 410 0$aCambridge companions to literature. 606 $aCanadian literature$xHistory and criticism$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 615 0$aCanadian literature$xHistory and criticism 676 $a810.9/971 702 $aKro?ller$b Eva-Marie 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996216711103316 996 $aCambridge Companion to Canadian literature$91076937 997 $aUNISA
