Description

Rethinking notions of empire and outpost and claims of universal genius in the teaching of literature in Canada ? Literature as cultural imperialism ? Racism and eurocentrism in the literary reinforcement of domination ? Beyond the reactivity of writing back to the Centre ... Fort culture and education and the Canadian state and the normalizing of imperialism .. Beyond the hushed gloom of the Royal Ontaro Museum's austere sense of permanence where a world of masks and disquietude lurks.

“Arnold Itwaru invites us to re-examine our literary-critical proprieties and join him in a quest to create a discourse that will open up these avenues of inquiry. Canadian literature deserves to be taken this seriously.”
