Ce volume contient une série d'études d'auteurs dont les œuvres parlent de provinces allant des Maritimes à la Colombie britannique, en passant par le Québec, l'Ontario et la Saskatchewan. C'est dire que, sans prétendre être exhaustif, le présent ouvrage aborde des aspects complémentaires de cette identité canadienne fondée sur la reconnaissance pas toujours facile de la diversité des cultures. L'exemple du camp de Kandelore offre un contrepoint représentatif de la politique culturelle volontariste du Canada face aux difficultés évoquées par Miriam Waddington, tandis que l'analyse de Modecai Richler fait écho à son étude de l'intégration de la culture juive dans la société canadienne. W.O. Mitchell laisse entrevoir l'univers autochtone face au monde WASP, et il est possible de mesurer le chemin parcouru depuis Two Solitudes. En fait, ce petit ouvrage fait apparaître comment les multiples solitudes culturelles entreprennent de vivre ensemble.

The problem of the limits of reason is by no means a privileged subject of an academic discourse. By reducing reality to what can be conceived of within the paradigms of the scientific laboratory, manipulative despotism, which positivistic notion of objectivism has established, creates in a human being a unilateral conscience of the world and of oneself; a conscience that dominates today our understanding of existence in its manifold senses of Being and the world we live in. This way of thinking, based on a powerful and skillful technique aimed at controlling human life in all its dimensions, intends to impose this limiting positivistic horizon on human beings in the name of Liberte, Egalite, and Fraternite. Hermeneutic rationality resists the claims of modern science and promotes the culture of hospitality toward the world as it shows itself in its complexity.

Ce livre réunit en version originale ainsi qu’en traduction une sélection de poèmes qui mettent en jeu les notions d’identité et d’altérité au Canada. S’y côtoient des textes d’auteurs des deux principales communautés linguistiques du pays, mais aussi de poètes autochtones ou migrants. La pluralité des voix, la diversité des lectures possibles et la richesse du matériau montrent bien que l’identité et l’altérité constituent un horizon ouvert, signe d’une société en évolution, donc bien vivante. -- Pluriel provides a composite snapshot, taken from a few particular angles, of the variety of poems written in Canada over the past few decades. In shaping this anthology the editors were attracted to the diverse cultural and social responses evident in the work of poets writing in English and French, both across Canada, and in particular in Quebec and other French-speaking regions of the country. Each poem is offered in its original language and in translation.

The notion of otherness, often misused, requires important conceptualization work in order for it to be considered in all of its forms, and not simply reduced to the account of others. Although otherness certainly questions the link to the other (relation), it also questions the link to the self (reflexivity) and the link to knowledge (epistemology). Being tridimensional, the process of otherness is a paradox, the meaning of which can only be drawn thanks to ethics, psychoanalytical orientation and the history of philosophical ideas. This book, which relates to philosophy of education, seeks to explain the problematic notion of otherness, the desire for which is specific to humankind. It examines how otherness questions the limits of knowledge, transmission and language, and argues that it is in fact a value, a tool and practice for all the actors involved in the relationship between education, knowledge and care.

Parmi les domaines du politique, l'imaginaire est un champ trop souvent négligé, alors qu'il est un élément essentiel de la construction des identités politiques et de la formation des consciences politiques. Cet ouvrage propose une analyse de l'imaginaire, considéré comme un principe d'explication du monde exprimé en particulier par les mythes et les idéologies. Les différentes significations de l'imaginaire politique s'inscrivent dans des engagements et dans des pratiques de pouvoir dont les spécificités historiques et culturelles contribuent à structurer les espaces publics. Pour tenter de comprendre l'imaginaire et de lui donner du sens, L'imaginaire politique présente des méthodes d'approche fondées sur la sémiotique et sur l'analyse des discours et des images des acteurs politiques et des médias. Il expose la place qu'occupent dans le débat public et dans les pratiques politiques l'utopie, la peur et les autres formes de l'imaginaire politique.
