The importance of rootedness in the contemporary canadian novel

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

"This thesis is a study of the importance of rootedness in contemporary Canadian fiction, both English and French. The rootedness discussed here is to be understood in the deepest, most fundamental sense of the word, which includes the traditional meaning: origination from the soil of a country and love of that country and its traditions, but is by no means limited to that definition exclusively. As explained in the introductory chapter of this study, a rooted man is a man who exists authentically, a whole being, knowing himself' and accepting himself as such."
