This collection of essays examines how the sense of crisis that
occasionally seems to overwhelm us directs and transforms Canadian
and Quebec writings in English and French, and conversely, how
literature and criticism set out to counterbalance the social,
economic, and ideological insecurities we live in. Ce recueil de
textes etudie les manieres dont le sentiment de crise qui peut
parfois sembler nous submerger, oriente et transforme les ecrits
canadiens et quebecois d'expressions anglaise et francaise, et
inversement, comment la litterature et la critique s'efforcent de
contrebalancer les insecurites sociales, economiques et
ideologiques dans lesquelles nous vivons. Contributors: David

All the Feels / Tous les sens presents research into emotion and
cognition in Canadian, Indigenous, and Québécois writings in
English or French. Affect is both internal and external, private
and public; with its fluid boundaries, it represents a productive
dimension for literary analysis. The emerging field of affect
studies makes vital claims about ethical impulses, social justice,
and critical resistance, and thus much is at stake when we adopt
affective reading practices. The contributors ask what we can learn
from reading contemporary literatures through this lens. Unique and
timely, readable and teachable, this collection is a welcome
resource for scholars of literature, feminism, philosophy, and
transnational studies as well as anyone who yearns to imagine the
world differently. Contributors: Nicole Brossard, Marie Carrière,
