An Open Access edition of this book is available on the Liverpool University Press website and the OAPEN library. The question ‘What is Québécois literature?’ may seem innocent and answerable, yet Rosemary Chapman's compelling study shows that to answer it is to chart the cultural history of French Canada, to put francophone writing in Canada in postcolonial context and to ask whether literary history, with its focus on the nation, is in fact obsolete. This remarkable book will be compulsory reading for scholars well-versed in francophone postcolonial studies and will also act as an ideal introduction for Anglophone scholars of Canadian literature.

Les articles publiés dans le présent volume regroupent les communications du colloque de l'AFLS qui a eu lieu du 3 au 5 septembre 2008 à l'Université d'Oxford. Ce livre traite de l'aspect phonologique d'une variété de français, de sa grammaire, de son vocabulaire tout comme des aspects dialogiques et polyphoniques du langage, en adoptant une perspective synchronique ou diachronique. Les auteurs se focalisent ainsi sur l'histoire du français parlé, de la langue française en contact, ou encore de la problématique de la variation ou du fait générique en FLE et FLS ; pour divers domaines linguistiques ou par l'analyse de discours appliquée à la presse (discours entrecroisés, discours politique). Cette publication présente comme trame la voix véhiculée par l'histoire, celle qui s'exprime dans la salle de classe ou encore qui résonne dans la presse. Réunissant les contributions d'éminents conférenciers pléniers : Alain Rey (Le Petit Robert), Anthony Lodge (University of St Andrews), Sophie Moirand (Université de Paris 3), ainsi que de chercheurs de renom international, d'enseignants et d'étudiants, l'ensemble de ces contributions réuni dans cet ouvrage apporte une représentation fort complète de l'évolution du français et de son statut au début du 21ièmesiècle.

Political, economic and social barriers among Latin America, the Caribbean and Canada are giving way to global forces and the "global dreams" they inspire. This collection of original articles and essays examines popular culture, literature, theatre, belief systems, indigenous practices and questions of identity, exile and alienation. The interconnectedness and distinction of cultural production throughout the Americas, "transplanted" interests, the mediation of African and European influences, and the expression of shifting identities, all reflect the development of a new American neighbourhood.
