Abstract (English)Eleven authors writing on the subject of Quebec nationalism and "l'identitaire québécois" consider topics such as the Quiet Revolution, the lives of the Dionne quintuplets, Québécois feminism, the 1995 referendum, and Aboriginal rights. Québécois visual art, literature and film are placed within the contexts of modernity and postmodernity. Issues of language, geography, race, ethnicity, sexuality and class are discussed in relation to political debates concerning sovereignty and the nation-state. Contains artist's projects by Whiteside, the Zeppetelli's and Mueler, as well as a video script by Guilbert and Murphy. 153 bibl. ref. Edit this item (login required): |
