【Course Objectives】

Students will be able to examine the diversity and interculturality of Quebec society through the reading of contemporary Quebec indigenous literature.

【Course Contents】

Today, as globalization progresses and the concept of national borders is shaken up, we may be able to see French literature more clearly from the perspective of the French-speaking world. The province of Quebec was quickly modernized from a traditional society by the "Quiet Revolution" that took place in the 1960s. It is an interesting region that has nurtured its own French-language culture in North America while remaining part of Canada.
Quebec has already accumulated a great deal of experience in coexisting with the new immigrants who have been increasing since the 1980s, but in recent years, the province has increasingly shared values with indigenous people who have formed their own communities. Naomi Fontaine (1987-) is an Innu writer born in northern reserve and moved to Quebec City with her family at the age of seven. Her 2017 Manikanetish : Petite Marguerite is a first-person novel in which the narrator, who returned to her native reserve as a young French teacher, describes the reality of the indigenous reserve through her interactions with the children. By reading this book, students will reflect upon the history and society of Quebec, and examine the contemporary Quebec where people of various origins live together with French as the core.
