Autor: Richler, Mordecai
Rok: 1931-2001 Mordecai Richler, CC (January 27, 1931 – July 3, 2001) was a Canadian writer. His best known works are The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz (1959) and Barney's Version (1997). His 1989 novel Solomon Gursky Was Here was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize. He is also well known for the Jacob Two-Two children's fantasy series.In addition to his fiction, Richler wrote numerous essays about the Jewish community in Canada, and about nationalism as practised by Canadian anglophones and the francophone Québécois. Arriving as immigrants in Canada when English was the country's predominant official language (long before English-French bilingualism became an official federal policy), the Jewish communities in Montreal (a city in the largely francophone province of Québec) usually acquired English, not French, as a second language after Yiddish. This later put them at odds with the Québec nationalist movement, which argued for French as the only official language of Québec. His Oh Canada! Oh Quebec! (1992), a collection of essays about nationalism and anti-semitism, generated considerable controversy. |
