Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Inviting readers to imagine simultaneously explore new topographies of sexuality and the state, this collection of essays offers a broad reconceptualisation of cultural issues ranging from law, history, fiction and film to national parks, urban neighbourhoods and fashion. Written with wit, iron and keen literary insight, this groundbreaking anthology features a list of contributors that reads like a Who's Who in Canadian Queer Studies, a realm of investigation characterised by its political engagement, intellectual commitment and diversity. In terms of rights and freedoms for queers, Canada holds an international reputation as among the most liberal of nations. Yet this picture of harmonious gay and lesbian assimilation is nothing if not fractured and fraught with the contradictions of lace, privilege, race, and gender. In a Queer Country is a groundbreaking collection of fourteen essays from established and emerging writers on the struggles, pleasures, and contradictions of queer culture and public life in Canada. Versed in queer social history as well as leading-edge gay and lesbian studies, queer theory, and post-colonial studies, In a Queer Country confronts queer culture from various perspectives relevant to international audiences. Topics range from the politics of the family and spousal rights to queer black identity to manifestations in popular culture, from pride parade fashions to lesbian park rangers. Specific essays include Tom Waugh (author of the acclaimed Hard to Imagine) on Montreal and Toronto's queer cinema of the 1960s and '70s; Gary Kinsman's critique of nationalism, both queer and Canadian; Lynn Fernie in an interview on her extraordinary award-winning documentary about lesbians in the 1950s, Forbidden Love; Elaine Pigeon on Michel Tremblay's classic play Hosanna and the its author's attempts to mingle sexual, class and Quebec Nationalist politics; and Gordon Brent Ingram on nude beaches and aspects of gay male public space.
