Text is clean. 'For most readers and students of Canadian literature, Susanna Moodie's name evokes images of immigrant and settler experience in nineteenth-century Canada. Roughing It in the Bush, her account of pioneer life, is a landmark in Canadian literary history; it is the only sense of Moodie that most Canadians have. But there were many other dimensions to her life, as this volume reveals. It follows Susanna from her Suffolk girlhood and her experience as an aspiring young writer in London, through her emigration to Upper Canada and five decades of Canadian life. Many of the surviving letters, because they are written to fellow writers, editors, and publishers, are about literature. . . . Personal letters are here too. They tell a warmly human story of a lively personality.' SIGNED by the three Editors upon the title-page. 390 pages. Signed by Editors. Book.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. The search for a distinctive Canadian literature is not new. It began in the 1820s, and even then involved many of the same issues that concern critics today. Much of this early material is now inaccessible to most Canadians. Carl Ballstadt has selected for this volume a number of the most importance statements from a century of growth. The pieces come from essays, prefaces, and editorials published between 1823 and 1926 in a variety of works including the major literary periodicals of the time. Among the authors are Thomas D'Arcy McGee, Sara Jeannette Duncan, Daniel Wilson, Goldwin Smith, G. Mercer Adam, Pelham Edgar, J.D. Robins, J.D. Logan, and  Charles Mair. The major themes they treated, with frequent diversity of views, are the kind of writing best suited to a new country; the economic and spiritual barriers to the creation of literature; the feasibility of creating a 'national' literature; the need for serious criticism; the relationship between European traditions and the developing Canadian imagination; Canada's 'northern' character; the advantages of two cultural streams; and the significance of Canadian achievements in poetry. This book provides essential background to anyone concerned with the path Canadian literature followed to modern times.…
