{"product_id":"literature-and-painting-in-quebec-4","title":"Literature and Painting In Quebec","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis unique study explores how Quebec's landscapes have been represented in both literature and visual art throughout the centuries, from the writing of early explorers such as Cartier and Champlain to work by prominent contemporary authors and artists from the province. William J. Berg traces recurrent images and themes within these creations through the most significant periods in the development of a Quebecois identity that was threatened initially by the wilderness and indigenous populations, and later by the dominance of British and American influences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFocusing on the interplay between nature and culture in landscape representation, \u003cem\u003eLiterature and Painting in Quebec\u003c\/em\u003e contends that both have reflected and fashioned the meaning of French-Canadian nationhood. As such, \u003cem\u003eLiterature and Painting in Quebec\u003c\/em\u003e presents a new perspective to approach the notion of national identity, a quest that few groups have engaged in more persistently than the Quebecois.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"By William J.
