Book excerpt: Diplomarbeit aus dem Jahr 2004 im Fachbereich Bibliothekswissenschaften, Information Science, Note: 1,0, Hochschule der Medien Stuttgart, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht anhand ausgewählter Beispiele aus der Literatur das gegenwärtige kulturelle Selbstverständnis Kanadas. Hierzu werden die Romane Der lange Traum von Margaret Atwood, In der Haut eines Löwen von Michael Ondaatje und Fort von Jane Urquhart auf ihre Hauptthemen und Botschaften hin analysiert. Als Hinführung zu dieser Analyse wird im ersten Teil der Arbeit ein Überblick über die historisch-kulturelle Entwicklung Kanadas – beginnend im 16. Jahrhundert – gegeben. Der Entwurf eines Ausstellungsprojektes zum Thema „Kanada“, der sowohl eine Auswahl an Titeln zu Geographie, Gesellschaft und Politik dieses Landes, als auch an aktueller kanadischer Belletristik enthält, dient als Ergänzung zu dieser Untersuchung. Abgerundet wird die Arbeit durch ein Interview mit Astrid Holzamer, der Kulturreferentin der kanadischen Botschaft in Deutschland. Schlagwörter: Kanada, kulturelle Identität, Gegenwartsroman, Margaret Atwood, Michael Ondaatje, Jane Urquhart This diploma thesis examines Canada’s contemporary cultural self-perception based on selected examples of literature. The novels Surfacing by Margaret Atwood, In the Skin of a Lion by Michael Ondaatje and Away by Jane Urquhart are analysed for their main themes and messages. As an introduction to this analysis, the first part of the thesis gives a summary of the historical and cultural development of Canada starting in the 16th century. The study is supplemented by an outline for a display on the topic “Canada”, containing a selection of titles relating to Canadian geography, society, politics and contemporary fiction. The thesis is completed by an interview with Astrid Holzamer who is the cultural attachée of the Canadian embassy in Germany. Keywords: Canada, cultural identity, contemporary fiction, Margaret Atwood, Michael Ondaatje, Jane Urquhart

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literatur im Zeichen des Ahornblatts. Atwood, Ondaatje, Munro, Hémon, Tremblay, Hébert - diese Namen stehen für die kanadische Literatur, die losgelöst von der US-amerikanischen Tradition ihre eigenen Merkmale aufweist. Aus dem Schatten der französischen und englischen Mutter-Literaturen ist die kanadische Literatur schon lange herausgetreten. Die Literaturgeschichte setzt ein bei den mündlichen Traditionen der Inuit und den "First Nations". Ein besonderer Schwerpunkt liegt auf den anglo- und frankokanadischen Literaturen, deren spannungsreiches Verhältnis lange das kulturelle Gedächtnis Kanadas dominierte. Seit der multikulturellen Orientierung des Landes verwandelt sich auch die kanadische Literatur zunehmend in ein polyfones Gedächtnis. Eine facettenreiches Panorama ebenso für Kenner wie für Literatur-und Kultur-Begeisterte.

Download or read book Margaret Atwood written by Reingard M. Nischik and published by Camden House. This book was released on 2000 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Novelist, poet, cultural critic, Margaret Atwood is one of the most fascinating, versatile, and productive authors of our time, a superb writer in any genre she chooses to tackle. This book was prepared on the occasion of Atwood's sixtieth birthday in November 1999. Its first aim is therefore to take stock of Atwood's multifarious works and international impact at the height of her creative powers. Secondly, the book serves as a wide-ranging introduction to the writer and her works. Fifteen informative articles written specifically for this volume by Atwood specialists from Canada, the USA, the UK, Germany, and France treat her life and status, her works (up-to-date survey articles on Atwood's novels, short fiction, poetry, and literary and cultural criticism), and important approaches to her works (from the standpoints of gender politics, mythology, ecology, popular culture, constructivism, and Canadian nationalism). A final section on creativity, transmission, and reception includes an interview with Atwood on creativity, statements by some of Atwood's important transmitters, including publishers, editors, literary agents, and translators, and some 15 statements by Atwood's fellow writers, in which they explore her importance for them. A number of photographs of Atwood, several cartoons drawn by her, an up-to-date bibliography of works by and about Atwood, and an index round out the volume. Reingard M. Nischik is Professor of American literature at the University of Konstanz, Germany.

Book excerpt: How do national stereotypes emerge? To which extent are they determined by historical or ideological circumstances, or else by cultural, literary or discursive conventions? This first inclusive critical compendium on national characterizations and national (cultural or ethnic) stereotypes contains 120 articles by 73 contributors. Its three parts offer [1] a number of in-depth survey articles on ethnic and national images in European literatures and cultures over many centuries; [2] an encyclopedic survey of the stereotypes and characterizations traditionally ascribed to various ethnicities and nationalities; and [3] a conspectus of relevant concepts in various cultural fields and scholarly disciplines. The volume as a whole, as well as each of the articles, has extensive bibliographies for further critical reading. Imagologyis intended both for students and for senior scholars, facilitating not only a first acquaintance with the historical development, typology and poetics of national stereotypes, but also a deepening of our understanding and analytical perspective by interdisciplinary and comparative contextualization and extensive cross-referencing.
