"She is a poet of light and darkness, death and beginnings, endless cycles of birth and renewal. She has the gift of a true poet in that her texts, rooted in personal events and sentiments as they must, transcend the particular to take flight towards the universal. Her language is superbly crafted to convey the eternal themes she writes about, often a veritable tour de force where we are no longer conscious of words per se but seem to be in direct contact with the feelings expressed and which we experience as our own" - Daniel Sloate.

A variety of productions and representations of Canadian identities are the central theme that runs through this book. The different contributions explore imagined spaces by considering Canadian music, poetry and novels; they engage with political space by addressing various ways in which the people of Canada have made claims to different regions in the distant and recent past; and they address lived spaces, and their actual and symbolic meanings. It is an unusual book as it encompasses the writings by those studying the arts and literature as well as writings by social scientists, and it includes both English and French-speaking scholars. The richness that can be found in this multitude of perspectives and approaches to exploring Canadian space is characteristic of the way in which Canadian Studies is practiced nowadays. It is therefore an appropriate volume to celebrate 20 years of Canadian Studies in the Netherlands.
