<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Essays in French or English use affect as a lens for reading contemporary Canadian literatures.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>All the Feels / Tous les sens presents research into emotion and cognition in Canadian, Indigenous, and Québécois writings in English or French. Affect is both internal and external, private and public; with its fluid boundaries, it represents a productive dimension for literary analysis. The emerging field of affect studies makes vital claims about ethical impulses, social justice, and critical resistance, and thus much is at stake when we adopt affective reading practices. The contributors ask what we can learn from reading contemporary literatures through this lens. Unique and timely, readable and teachable, this collection is a welcome resource for scholars of literature, feminism, philosophy, and transnational studies as well as anyone who yearns to imagine the world differently.</p><p>Contributors: Nicole Brossard, Marie Carrière, Matthew Cormier, Kit Dobson, Nicoletta Dolce, Louise Dupré, Margery Fee, Ana Mara Fraile-Marcos, Smaro Kamboureli, Aaron Kreuter, Daniel Laforest, Carmen Mata Barreiro, Ursula Mathis-Moser, Heather Milne, Eric Schmaltz, Maté Snauwaert, Jeanette den Toonder</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>The contributors show the complexity of affect and its social importance and break down assumptions about the separateness of mind and body, private and public, individual and communal. They also offer a welcome fusion of engaged theories that politicize the readings through queer, feminist, anti-capitalist, posthuman, and Indigenous perspectives.--Roxanne Rimstead, Professor, Comparative Canadian Literature, Université de Sherbrooke<br /><br />Les contributions montrent la complexité de l'affect et son importance sociale et remettent en cause les préjugés sur la séparation de l'esprit et du corps, du privé et du public, de l'individuel et du collectif. Elles proposent également une fusion bienvenue de théories engagées qui politisent les lectures à travers des perspectives queer, féministes, anticapitalistes, posthumaines, et autochtones.--Roxanne Rimstead, Professeure, Littérature canadienne comparée, Université de Sherbrooke<br /><br />The contributions cover numerous fields of scholarship and include in depth discussions of many original works as well as secondary sources, making this a compelling and diverse literary panorama replete with specific and intriguing case studies.--Sarah Henzi, Assistant Professor, Indigenous Literatures, Simon Fraser University<br /><br />Les contributions traitent de nombreux domaines de recherche et comprennent des discussions approfondies sur de nombreuses oeuvres originales et sources secondaires, ce qui en fait un panorama littéraire captivant et varié, rempli d'études de cas spécifiques et fascinantes.--Sarah Henzi, Professeure adjointe, Littératures autochtones, Université Simon Fraser<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Marie Carrière was Director of the Canadian Literature Centre/Centre de littérature canadienne at the University of Alberta for twelve years and is currently Associate Dean (Research) in the Faculty of Arts.
