Download or read book Portraits from a Life written by Heward Grafftey and published by Esplanade Books. This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the ease of a natural storyteller, Heward Grafftey writes about the people and places that have greatly influenced his life. Heward Grafftey was a federal member of Parliament for eighteen years, first elected when he was only thirty years old in 1958. For much of this time he was the only Tory MP representing a Quebec riding (Brome-Mississquoi). He worked with Prime Minister John Diefenbaker, was named parliamentary secretary to the minister of finance in 1962 and was a delegate to the United Nations in 1958 and 1966. In 1979 he became the secretary of state for social programs and minister of science and technology in the Joe Clark administration. Today Heward Grafftey is a successful author and publisher of books on safety. In Portraits from a Life, Heward Grafftey introduces us to the starchy world of English Montreal of his childhood in the 1930s and 1940s. We meet his parents and his beloved aunt Prudence Heward (member of the Beaver Hall Group of painters). Aside from his family, many friends and mentors influenced his life. He writes of his encounters with Wilder Penfield, Conrad Black, Pierre Elliott Trudeau, Ralph Nader, and his friendship with the novelist Hugh MacLennan. Grafftey's campaign against highway deaths led to a 1965 meeting with Ralph Nader on Laurier Lapierre's celebrated TV show, "This Hour Has Seven Days." For over thirty years, car safety and the prevention of accidents at home and in the workplace has been one of his priorities, and he has lectured extensively throughout Canada and the United States on the subject. Heward Grafftey is a passionate Canadian who advocates a new constitution to meet the needs of a unified Canada.
Download or read book The Writer Written written by Jean-Pierre Durix and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1987-09-09 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few people are so widely read within Commonwealth literature or are so knowledgeable about so many different cultures as Jean-Pierre Durix. . . . The first part of the book deals with general, theoretical themes (e.g., the writer as teacher), while the second contains studies of single novels by such writers as Patrick White, C.K. Stead, and Salmon Rushdie; here Durix is at his best. Choice Exploring the relationship between the writer and his craft, between the artist and society, between the creator and his conception of creation, this fascinating study takes up various key positions represented by major writers from Africa, Australia, Canada, the Caribbean, India, New Zealand, and the South Pacific, and examines the practice of literature, which is frequently concerned with a search for problematic roots and authenticity in its relation with didacticism, social concern, language and myth. The distinctively comparative approach brings together a series of close textual studies and examines four examples of metafiction from which emerge a number of specific features characteristic of literatures born out of Colonialism and its aftermath. Seen in this perspective, literary scholarship provides an irreplaceable point of view from which to assess the role of the imagination in multi-cultural societies.
Download or read book The Line which Separates written by Sheila McManus and published by University of Alberta. This book was released on 2005 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late nineteenth century the forty-ninth parallel was a key site of Canadian and American efforts to shape their respective nations and to create national identities. The international border sliced through Blackfoot country, creating the Alberta-Montana borderlands yet the dynamic arising out of this region’s landscape, aboriginal people, newcomers, railroads, and ongoing cross-border ties proved to challenge each government’s efforts to colonize and nationalize this region. Sheila McManus makes an important and useful comparison between American and Canadian government policies and attitudes regarding race, gender, and homesteading. Drawing on government maps and reports, oral testimony, and personal papers, The Line Which Separates explores the uneven way in which the borderlands divided a previously cohesive region.

Download or read book West African Poetry written by Robert Fraser and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1986-09-04 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previous studies of African poetry have tended to concentrate either on its political content or on its relationship to various European schools. This book examines West African poetry in English and French against the background of oral poetry in the vernacular. Do the roots of such poetry lie in Africa or in Europe? In committing their work to writing, do poets lose more than they gain? Can the immediacy of oral performance ever be recovered? Robert Fraser's account of two centuries of West African verse examines its subjugation to a succession of international styles: from the heroic couplet to the austerity of experimental Modernism. Successive chapters take us through the Négritude movement and the emergence of anglophone free verse in the 1950s to the rediscovery in recent years of the neglected springs of orality, which is the subject of the concluding chapter.
