Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review"The idea that Canada's culture takes nordicity as a major facet of its self-definition has never before been examined so extensively. This is a major work that casts an extraordinarily wide net, taking in Canadian music, art, drama, and fiction." Russell Brown, Department of English, University of Toronto at Scarborough ----- "Grace provides a sweeping, analytically and conceptually rich examination of northern images and ideas that raises provocative and challenging questions. She endeavours to balance northern and southern, aboriginal and non-aboriginal voices and impressions and to place the development in an evolving historical context." Ken Coates, Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences at the University of Saskatchewan and the author of Best Left as Indians: Native-White Relations in the Yukon Territory.
