Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor

Acadie is a country which exists in the imagination and words of its people. Its literature is young; its poetry has emerged from sheer experimentation with language -- both in its form and its content. But the poetry of Acadie is more than simply experimentation: it is also a political expression, an insistence on the very existence of an imaginative country. This is the first anthology of this type ever to be published in English.

Acadie is a country which exists in the imagination and words of its people. Its literature is young; its poetry has emerged from sheer experimentation with language -- both in its form and its content. But the poetry of Acadie is more than experimentation: it is also a political expression, an insistence on the very existence of an imaginative country.

For this anthology -- the first ever to be published in English -- Fred Cogswell and Jo-Anne Elder have selected poems by Hermenegilde Chiasson, Anne Cloutier, France Daigle, Ronald Despres, Gerald LeBlanc, Raymond Guy Leblanc, Dyane Leger, Romeo Savoie and more then twenty other poets to put together a collection of the most contemporary of Acadian poetry.
