This fully revised second edition of The Cambridge Companion to
Canadian Literature offers a comprehensive introduction to major
writers, genres and topics. For this edition several chapters have
been completely rewritten to reflect major developments in Canadian
literature since 2004. Surveys of fiction, drama and poetry are
complemented by chapters on Aboriginal writing, autobiography,
literary criticism, writing by women and the emergence of urban
writing. Areas of research that have expanded since the first
edition include environmental concerns and questions of sexuality
which are freshly explored across several different chapters. A
substantial chapter on francophone writing is included. Authors
such as Margaret Atwood, noted for her experiments in multiple
literary genres, are given full consideration, as is the work of
authors who have achieved major recognition, such as Alice Munro,
recipient of the Nobel Prize for literature.
