Elton John: Fifty Years On

We can count on one hand the musical legends equal to Elton John (the Beatles and the Rolling Stones each get a finger).

Literature and Painting In Quebec

  • Categories: Art

This unique study explores how Quebec's landscapes have been represented in both literature and visual art throughout the centuries, from the writing of early explorers such as Cartier and Champlain to work by prominent contemporary authors and artists from the province. William J. Berg traces recurrent images and themes within these creations through the most significant periods in the development of a Quebecois identity that was threatened initially by the wilderness and indigenous populations, and later by the dominance of British and American influences. Focusing on the interplay between nature and culture in landscape representation, Literature and Painting in Quebec contends that both have reflected and fashioned the meaning of French-Canadian nationhood. As such, Literature and Painting in Quebec presents a new perspective to approach the notion of national identity, a quest that few groups have engaged in more persistently than the Quebecois.

Naître rien

Il arrive que, par amour, une mère soit obligée d'abandonner son enfant. Elle n'est pas méchante, bien que ce soit ainsi qu'elle est le plus souvent jugée, mais elle n'a rien à donner. Si elle garde son enfant, celui-ci n'a aucune chance. Alors, par amour, elle l'abandonne. À quel destin son enfant est-il voué?? Plus près de nous, les orphelins de Duplessis constituent des exemples bien concrets. Ces enfants, à leur naissance, ont été qualifiés d'«enfants naturels» et d'«enfants illégitimes». Leur baptistaire précise, la plupart du temps, qu'ils sont de «parents inconnus». Ils n'ont pas été adoptés et ont vécu leur enfance, leur adolescence, voire leur vie adulte dans...
