Download or read book The Fiddlehead Moment written by Tony Tremblay and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2019-12-05 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many Canadians, the small province of New Brunswick on Canada's scenic east coast is "a nice place to visit but no place to live," plagued for generations by outmigration and economic stagnation. In The Fiddlehead Moment Tony Tremblay challenges this potent stereotype by showcasing the work of a group of literary modernists who set out to change the meaning of New Brunswick in the national lexicon. Alfred Bailey, Desmond Pacey, Fred Cogswell, and a formidable group of local poets and cultural workers - collectively, New Brunswick's Fiddlehead School - sought to restore New Brunswick's literary reputation by adapting avant-garde modernist practices to the contours of the province, opening it to the contemporary world while also encouraging writers to make it their subject. The result was a non-urban form of modernism that was as responsive to technical innovation as to the human geographies of New Brunswick. By placing New Brunswick writers and critics at the forefront of Canadian literature in the midcentury modernist project, Tremblay adds an important new chapter to our understanding of Canadian modernism. The Fiddlehead Moment is the first critical examination of this group's considerable influence. Whether through Bailey's ethnomethodology, Pacey's critical ordering, or Cogswell's editorial eclecticism in the Fiddlehead magazine and Fiddlehead Poetry Books, authors in New Brunswick, Tremblay argues, had a profound impact on writing in Canada.

Download or read book Selected Verse of mile Nelligan Qu bec s great lyric poet written by Emile Nelligan and published by Petra Books. This book was released on 2023-02-06 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nelligan’s finest poems. This collection of 46 poems, translated from French, has been selected for both poetic and psychological interest. Émile Nelligan, Canada’s first truly modern poet, burst upon the scene as a prodigy creating brilliant lyrical poetry in late 19th-century Montréal for three years before suffering, at age 19, a breakdown that left him in a mental asylum for the rest of his life. Nelligan went on to achieve mythic status in Québec — no other poet in all Canada has been the subject of so many biographies, films, novels, plays, and critical appraisals. This volume includes Nelligan’s key poems, accompanied by robust commentary covering such topics as the women in Nelligan’s life, the nature of his breakdown, and the several controversies surrounding his life and work. Includes picture gallery. “A fascinating story of this meteoric figure. The poems show that Nelligan was a musician of words who merits recognition beyond Québec’s borders.” Translator and commentator Ian Allaby is a Toronto-based writer, poet and former editor of the Spadina Literary Review.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Making of Modern Poetry in Canada gathers together primary literary documents including manifestos, reviews, critical essays, and recollections to illustrate the most significant developments in the rise of modernist English Canadian poetry. Rather than present exclusively academic criticism, the editors have carefully selected original texts by the principal figures of modernism to offer readers a behind-the-scenes look at twentieth-century poetry in Canada. Collecting several decades of writings by luminaries beginning with pivotal essays by John Sutherland and A.J.M. Smith, and including George Bowering, Northrop Frye, Irving Layton, P.K. Page, F.R. Scott, Raymond Souster, and William Carlos Williams, this volume also provides explanatory notes to guide the reader and to evaluate the significance of each piece in its literary and historical context. This classic work of Canadian literary studies is now back in print with a substantial new introduction and appendices by Michael Gnarowski, who explains and interprets the essence of key initiatives in the unfolding of a modernist point of view. The Making of Modern Poetry in Canada offers a comprehensive chronological path from the earliest examples of Canadian modernism to the beginning of the postmodern period.
Download or read book Canadian Poetry 1920 to 1960 written by and published by New Canadian Library. This book was released on 2010-03-30 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The best in four decades of exceptional Canadian poetry, now in a limited hardcover edition. The poets in this anthology, all of whom matured creatively between 1920 and 1960, considered it one of their primary obligations to modernize Canadian writing, to bring the country's poetry out of late Romantic stasis after the Great War into a fertile and combative response to the cultural, political, technological, philosophical, religious, and economic conditions of the modern era. In their common reaction against Romanticism, and in their commitments to modern poetry's possibilities of profound newness, the poets in this volume make up one great movement in Canada's cultural history. The anthology includes: • 250 poems by 44 poets • Regionally diverse voices from Newfoundland, the Maritimes, Quebec, Ontario, the Prairies, and B.C. • Extensive selections of the work of major poets • An afterword and biographical headnotes provide important historical and literary context The poets included in Canadian Poetry from 1920 to 1960 are: Frank Oliver Call; Louise Morey Bowman; Raymond Knister; Joe Wallace; E.J.
