Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A thorough exploration of the role of Longfellow's literary icon Evangeline and her role in the North American cultural landscape, available for the first time in English. The eponymous character of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's epic poem, Evangeline, is an Acadian girl searching for her long-lost love, Gabriel, during the Expulsion of the Acadians (1755-1764). Originally published in 1847, Longfellow's poem throws into sharp relief a dark chapter of Canada's history, while also showcasing a strong female character that has left an indelible mark on generations of Acadians, French Canadians, Cajuns, and Creoles. Examining aspects both historical and literary that led to Evangeline's idolization across countries, cultures, and decades, sociologist Joseph Yvon Theriault presents three versions of the celebrated heroine: Evangeline the American, Evangeline the Acadian, and Evangeline the Cajun. The crux of his narrative seeks to understand if these three distinct identities might be merged, and whether they will survive the effects of globalization. Passionate and engaging, Evangeline is a postmodern study on the many interpretations of this literary icon, and the melting pot of cultures she has traversed and influenced. Features a colour photo insert. Sociologist Joseph Yvon Theriault presents three versions of the literary heroine: Evangeline the Acadian, Evangeline the Canadian, and Evangeline the American. Can these three distinct identities be merged, and will survive the effects of globalization?
