Future Indicative
The format of this book is arbitrary and exact, the way paint is in a landscape by Alex Colville. It follows the program of the symposium that took place at the University of Ottawa, from April 25 to 27, 1986. As Bakhtin leaps from the sidelines to centre stage, as Derrida clambers out of orchestra pit into the prompter's box, and Lancan swings from the flies, as Foucault, Lévi-Strauss, Saussure, Barthes, and a throng of others rhubarb their way through the text, one recognizes just how connected all the disparate elements of this critical extravaganza really are.

Classic French Noir
French film noir has long been seen as a phenomenon distinct from its Hollywood counterpart. This book - an innovative departure from conventional noir scholarship - now adopts a biocultural approach to exploring the French genre through the years 1941-1959. Chapters reveal noir as a product of the social and cultural factors at play in occupied, liberated and post-war France: marked by malaise at military defeat, Nazi collaboration and the impact of industrialisation. Furthermore, the book uncovers the evolutionary mechanisms of sexuality and reproduction beneath the national context that drive gendered behaviour on screen. During this period, for example, the emerging urgent demand for pop...
Iced
"You're lucky he didn't have an ice pick in his hands. I know how this guy performs." -Mobster Paul Volpe speaking about a Buffalo-mafia enforcer named "Cicci" Canada is lauded the world over as a law abiding, peaceful country - a shining example to all nations. Such a view, also shared by most Canadians, is typically naïve and misinformed. Throughout its history, to present day and beyond, Canada has been and will continue to be home to criminals and crime organizations that are brilliant at finding ways to make money - a lot of money - illegally. Iced: The Story of Organized Crime in Canada is a remarkable parallel history to the one generally accepted and taught in our schools. Organized...

Langages poétiques et poésie francophone en Amérique du Nord
Les textes qui figurant dans cet ouvrage traitent du rôle joué par le poétique, sur les plans diachronique et synchronique, dans la mosaïque francophone d’Amérique du Nord. Ce recueil d’articles réunis et présentés par Lélia Young cherche à ramener à la mémoire la force motrice instaurée par l’acte poétique et le rôle qu’il joua et continue de jouer dans l’affirmation et l’essor de fait et des identités francophones sur notre continent septentrional en y créant des mouvements culturels littéraires, artistiques, idéologiques et politiques qui déterminent, selon les contextes, notre manière de voir le passé, de percevoir et de déterminer le présent afin d’...
