Book Scandalous Bodies

  • Author : Smaro Kamboureli

  • ISBN : 1554587174

Download or read book Scandalous Bodies written by Smaro Kamboureli and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2011-04-07 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scandalous Bodies is an impassioned scholarly study both of literature by diasporic writers and of the contexts within which it is produced. It explores topics ranging from the Canadian government’s multiculturalism policy to media representations of so-called minority groups, from the relationship between realist fiction and history to postmodern constructions of ethnicity, from the multicultural theory of the philosopher Charles Taylor to the cultural responsibilities of diasporic critics such as Kamboureli herself. Smaro Kamboureli proposes no neat or comforting solutions to the problems she addresses. Rather than adhere to a single method of reading or make her argument follow a systematic approach, she lets the texts and the socio-cultural contexts she examines give shape to her reading. In fact, methodological issues, and the need to revisit them, become a leitmotif in the book. Theoretically rigorous and historically situated, this study also engages with close reading—not the kind that views a text as a sovereign world, but one that opens the text in order to reveal the method of its making. Her practice of what she calls negative pedagogy—a self-reflexive method of learning and unlearning, of decoding the means through which knowledge is produced—allows her to avoid the pitfalls of constructing a narrative of progress. Her critique of Canadian multiculturalism as a policy that advocates what she calls “sedative politics” and of the epistemologies of ethnicity that have shaped, for example, the first wave of ethnic anthologies in Canada are the backdrop against which she examines the various discourses that inform the diasporic experience in Canada. Scandalous Bodies was first published in 2000 and received the Gabrielle Roy Prize for Canadian Criticism.

Book Literature and the Glocal City

Download or read book Literature and the Glocal City written by Ana María Fraile-Marcos and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-17 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern city is a space that can simultaneously represent the principles of its homeland alongside its own unique blend of the cultures that intermingle within its city limits. This book makes an intervention in Canadian literary criticism by foregrounding both ‘globalism,’ which is increasingly perceived as the state-of-the-art literary paradigm, and the city. These are two significant axes of contemporary culture and identity that were previously disregarded by a critical tradition built around the importance of space and place in Canadian writing. Yet, as relevant as the turn to the city and to globalism may be, this collection’s most notable contribution lies in linking the notion of ‘glocality’, that is, the intermeshing of local and global forces to representations of subjectivity in the material and figurative space of the Canadian city. Dealing with oppositional discourses as multiculturalism, postcolonialism, feminism, diaspora, and environmentalism this book is an essential reference for any scholar with an interest in these areas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most comprehensive anthology in its field, the second edition of Making a Difference builds on the solid literary foundation established in the original landmark volume. Featuring a blend of Canadian poetry and short fiction, this anthology examines on cultural differences through the work of 70 writers representing a diverse range of Native and ethnic backgrounds. The result is a rich survey that celebrates the unique cultural heritage of Canadian literature and the multiplicity of this country's cultural spectrum. For this second edition, Making a Difference editor Smaro Kamboureli thoroughly reconsidered the table of contents and introduced over thirty-five authors, many of them seldom anthologized elsewhere, to the already extensive collection of established writers. These additions bring the collection up to date. By combining established classics with writings that seldom appear in similar anthologies, this unique collection stands as the most engaging and comprehensive in the market.

  • Author : Anne Burke
  • Publisher : Canadian Scholars’ Press
  • Release : 2017-07-31
  • ISBN : 1551309734
  • Pages : 228 pages

Download or read book Challenging Stories written by Anne Burke and published by Canadian Scholars’ Press. This book was released on 2017-07-31 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can Canadian educators begin to instill cultural sensitivity and social awareness in elementary and secondary school students? This vital text attempts to answer that question by bringing together literacy scholars and practicing teachers in a unique cross-Canadian exploration of children’s literature and social justice. Through reflection on the experience of teaching with various Canadian texts including picture books, novels, and graphic novels, the contributors behind Challenging Stories create a “pedagogy of discomfort” that will encourage both educators and their students to develop critical literacy skills. The compelling contributions to this collection highlight the complexities of teaching with texts that address issues of discrimination, historical marginalization, colonialism, racial and gender intolerance, sexual orientation, language, and cultural diversity. The authors offer first-hand insight into the possibilities and challenges of implementing curricular and pedagogical changes to promote equity and social justice in the classroom. Featuring the stories of participating teachers and an annotated bibliography of children’s literature, this invaluable resource will prove to be essential reading for current and future educators.

Book Phati tude Literary Magazine

Download or read book Phati tude Literary Magazine written by Intercultural Alliance of Artists & Scho and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2010-04-25 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: phati'tude Literary Magazine is a quarterly publication that publishes poetry, fiction and essays written by both emerging and established writers of diverse origins whose works exhibit social, political and cultural awareness. Published by the Intercultural Alliance of Artists & Scholars, Inc. (IAAS) a NY-based nonprofit organization. Our Spring 2010 issue, "Multiculturalism: In Search of a New Perspective" features essays by Marie Arana, David Zinser, Marc Crane and David M. Wulf; interviews on Lawson Fusao Inada and Tara Betts, and A. Robert Lee. Featuring poets from the U.S., Canada, England, Australia, New Zealand, Scotland, Guam, Japan, the Philippines and Israel. REVIEW: The Spring 2010 issue of phati'tude is a retrospective of multiculturalism as it has developed over the past 30 years. There are interviews with veterans of the curriculum wars of the '80s and '90s. Lawson Fusao Inada, a Japanese-American writer and educator, has been involved with the West Coast poetry scene since the 1960s. A. Robert Lee is a British Professor of American Literature, has been writing about multiculturalism since the 1980s. For Inada and Lee, multiculturalism is a community with a common set of reference points: Ishmael Reed and Maxine Hong Kingston, to name only two. A lively and interesting literary community has always been one of the prime attractions of multiculturalism. While the phati'tude editors are open to contributions in all literary forms, poetry dominates the Spring issue. There's a fine poem from Heid Erdrich, the sister of poet and novelist Louise Erdrich, and a pair of contributions from Lawson Fusao Inada. Jaime "Shaggy" Flores' "Letter of the Day" is impassioned, like a lot of the work in the issue, and also inventive. Also not to be missed is Gabrielle David's sensitive and learned reviews of poetry collections. . . . Hopefully, future issues of phati'tude will address the next challenges of the great American experiment in a pluralistic society. Multiculturalism is an endless conversation, and that conversation is as important now as it has ever been.
