Restorying Canadá: múltiplas narrativas em andamento

Adina Balint, Patrick Imbert

Resumo


Este artigo explora as relações entre representações históricas, literárias e artísticas do Canadá: de um lado, estudamos discursos sobre a evolução histórica do país desde 1867 - o que leva a uma das sociedades multiculturais mais abertas do planeta; de outro lado, analisamos discursos literários e artísticos que tiveram um grande impacto no modo como imaginamoso país e na polivalência das identidades canadenses. Baseandose na análise da noção de multiculturalismo de Will Kymlicka, e no texto ficcional de Jane Urquhart, A Number of Things: Stories of Canada Told Through Fifty Objects (2016), bem como no ensaio histórico de Charlotte Gray, The Promise of Canada. 150 Years – People and Ideas that Have Shaped Our Country (2016), demostramos que o 150º aniversário da Confederação é um momento ideal para reexaminar os discursos, as ideias e as noções de identidade e de diversidade, bem como as decisões políticas e as transformações que moldaram o Canadá moderno. Assim, "restorying Canadá" traz ousados desafios às convenções de como lembramos, convida à critica e a narrativas inovadoras e inclusivas.
