It engages with the most pressing critical issues at the intersection of comparative literature and other areas of inquiry in the context of scholarship, pedagogy and academic publishing: bilingualism and multilingualism, Indigeneity, multiple canons (literary and other), the relationship between print culture and other media, the development of information studies, concerted efforts in digitization, and the future of the production and dissemination of knowledge. The authors offer an analysis of the current state of Canadian comparative literature, with a dual focus on the issues of multilingualism in Canada’s sociopolitical and cultural context and Canada’s geographical location within the Americas. It also discusses ways in which contemporary technology is influencing the way that Canadian literature is taught, produced, and disseminated, and how this affects its readings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction, Susan Ingram and Irene Sywenky   Section 1: Opening Salvoes   Chapter 1: Arguments for Comparative Literature Book Projects, Joseph Pivato  Chapter 2: For a Renewed “Linguistic Turn”: Comparative Studies and the Language-Department Model, Jerry White  Section 2: Comparative Literature in and across Linguistic and Locational Contexts   Chapter 3: Plurilingualism and Collaboration in the Comparatist Emerging Scholar Community in Canada, Jeanne Mathieu-Lessard  Chapter 4: Other Languages of Comparative Literature and Caribbean Poetry about Language, Doris Hambuch  Chapter 5: The Languages of Comparison, Nasrin Rahimieh  Chapter 6: What Is the Continental Identity of Canadian Literature?, Albert Braz  Chapter 7: Comparing Diversities: Morphopoetic Variations, Amaryll Chanady  Chapter 8: The Price of the Future: Crisis and Risk in Contemporary Dystopian Speculative Fiction, Jerry Varsava  Section 3: Critical Engagements  Chapter 9: Reforming Critique: Critical Making as Method and Practice, Monique Tschofen, Nataleah Hunter-Young, Lai-Tze Fan, Daniel Browne  Chapter 10: Pedagogy, Writing, and the Future of Comparative Literature, Eva-Lynn Jagoe  Chapter 11: Responses to Jagoe, Kevin G.
