DESCRIPTION
With the `Quiet Revolution` as a political and cultural background, women writers have placed an important, innovative and inspiring role in 20th-century French-Canadian literature. The unit focuses on works by three major writers:
Sur la route d`Altamont and
Bonheur d`occasion by Gabrielle Roy,
La Sagouine by Antonine Maillet and
Kamouraska by Anne Hébert. They raise issues such as the place of women in society and the burden of poverty and deal with the French linguistic and cultural specificity in an Anglo-speaking environment.
