This volume aims to explore cultural and linguistic diversity in the representations of Canada as a country that is constantly in the making. Combining historical, linguistic, cultural, and literary perspectives, the twenty-two essays here collected adopt an interdisciplinary approach to the analysis of different types of texts that question the notion of Canadian identity based on diversity, which has permeated Canada’s public discourse since the very foundation of Confederation in 1867. The four thematic sections into which the book is divided highlight how the past and present of Canadian Studies are continuously being re-interpreted outside of Canada.
