470.1607 Imperialism in the Works of Leacock, Duncan and Wilson.
During its heyday, England flew the Imperialist flag over a number of nations--India and Canada being the two most significant perhaps--and in doing so, colonized literature. The notion of Empire and all it represented was both fervently embraced and just as fervently repudiated depending on where you stood. Canadian authors of the early twentieth century were either British born, or born of British parents on Canadian soil. Imperialism, then, in one way or another permeates the novels and short stories of such authors as Sara Jeannette Duncan, Ethel Wilson and Stephen Leacock. Duncan's attitude to Imperialism is mixed, Wilson's is innate while Leacock embraces it even as he writing what is regarding by many as a "quintessentially" Canadian work. 10 pgs. 19 f/c. 7b.

471.1620 Familiar Strangers: Characterisation in H. Raddall's "The Wedding Gift".
This paper discusses how In "The Wedding Gift", Thomas H. Raddall demonstrates wonderful skills of characterisation. He brings to full literary life not only such characters as Miss Kezia Barnes, Mr. Hathaway, Mr. Mears, and the Barclays, but also the harsh Nova Scotia landscape itself, which effectively functions as a character in the story. One of the key requirements of good characterisation is, of course, the quality of being memorable, and Raddall certainly achieves this quality in his story. His characters possess a vivid quality which seems to derive in part from their very humanity - they are recognisably like people we know - and in part from their very super-humanity - they are a little more extraordinary, a little more real than anybody we have met in our daily lives. 6 pgs. 10 f/c. 1b.

476.3720 Hagar and Jason Currie's Ideological Positions in "The Stone Angel".
This paper analyses Hagar and Jason Currie's ideological positions in "The Stone Angel". Using Patricia Marchak's work, the paper argues that Hagar and Jason both very much represent capitalist and individualist values. Jason is a firm believer in the puritan work ethic, holding that people must simply work hard and take individual responsibility for their own lives. Hagar also represents a strong individualistic ethic, for she refuses to depend on anyone but herself in her confrontation with old age and death. 5 pgs. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
