Anotace

Interest in Native literature has grown substantially over the past number of years. It is studied within Native Studies programmes and is increasingly viewed as an important area of contemporary Canadian literature. Native Poetry in Canada: A Contemporary Anthology features a broad selection from the sixties to the present day. It includes pieces from the coffee-house, counter-culture days of the 1960s, the "Red Power" movement of the 1970s and the introspective approach to the native experience of the 1980s. The anthology ends with the 1990s and the diverse eloquent voices coming from reservation and street, city and university. Broadview’s Native Poetry in Canada is the only anthology of its kind, with a broad collection of work by Native poets who are writing some of the most dynamic and powerful literature in Canada today. This anthology includes many authors whose work has not previously been published in book form, and features the poetry of writers better known as playwrights, essayists, and novelists. Substantial selections from the work of each poet have been included, as well as biographical sketches and explanatory notes. The editors provide a general introduction, and a headnote for each author.
