Exploring Canada: Exploits and Encounters is a collection of articles on a broad variety of Canadian topics and themes, from literature to language and linguistics, from social and political issues to art and aesthetics, philosophy, history and geography. Initiated by The Nordic Association for Canadian Studies (NACS), this volume has been put together by an international team of scholars who all work in the multidisciplinary field of Canadian Studies.

The book engages with the broad theme of exploration in both concrete and metaphorical terms. The writers recognise that Canadian society has emerged from complex processes of exploration and encounters between people and ideas. The volume looks beyond simply celebrating these processes, and asks how different peoples, regions and ideas in Canada have been shaped by centuries of exploits and encounters in terms of gaining visibility and representation in the political life, literature and social relations of a multi-ethnic society.
