Roy considers the connections Jameson makes between feminism and anti-racism in Winter Studies and Summer Rambles in Canada (1838), Hubbard''s insights in A Woman''s Way Through Unknown Labrador (1908) into her relationship with First Nations men who had both more and less power than she, and Laurence''s awareness of colonial and patriarchical oppression in her African memoir The Prophet''s Camel Bell (1963). Roy also examines archival and First Nations accounts of these women''s travels, and the sketches, photos, and maps that accompany their writing, to examine contradictions in and question the implied objectivity of travel narratives. She concludes by looking at the myth of getting there first and the ways in which new technologies of representation, including cameras, allow travellers and writers to claim new travel firsts.

ReVisions examines speculative fiction, film, and television created by artists in Canada and reflecting their distinct experiences. Bringing together critical and creative works by eighteen different authors, the book re-envisions Canadian politics, cultures, and societies and asks important questions about representations of our world.The collection examines the realm of the past through a futuristic, speculative lens, asking readers to revise their understandings of past events and current relationships. Editor Wendy Roy assembles a variety of investigations of Canada and the larger world, including studies of the use of apocalyptic and dystopian scenarios by Indigenous writers to revisit Canada's history of colonization. The varied contributions demonstrate that speculative writing can help us to see what is happening in the world around us and at the same time to re-envision it, to reconsider the consequences of our actions, and to imagine revised and perhaps better futures.

Listening Up, Writing Down, and Looking Beyond is an interdisciplinary collection that gathers the work of scholars and performance practitioners who together explore questions about the oral, written, and visual. The book includes the voices of oral performance practitioners, while the scholarship of many of the academic contributors is informed by their participation in oral storytelling, whether as poets, singers, or visual artists. Its contributions address the politics and ethics of the utterance and text: textualizing orature and orality, simulations of the oral, the poetics of performance, and reconstructions of the oral.

What happens next? That was the question asked of early-twentieth-century authors Nellie L. McClung, L. M. Montgomery, and Mazo de la Roche, whose stories and novels appeared serially and kept readers and publishers in a state of anticipation. Each author answered through the writing and dissemination of further instalments. McClung's Pearlie Watson trilogy (1908-1921), Montgomery's Anne of Green Gables books (1908-1939), and de la Roche's Jalna novels (1927-1960) were read avidly not just as sequels but as serials in popular and literary newspapers and magazines. A number of the books were also adapted to stage, film, and television. The Next Instalment argues that these three Canadian women writers, all born in the same decade of the late nineteenth century, were influenced by early-twentieth-century publication, marketing, and reading practices to become heavily invested in the cultural phenomenon of the continuing story. A close look at their serials, sequels, and adaptations reveals that, rather than existing as separate cultural productions, each is part of a cultural and material continuum that encourages repeated consumption through development and extension of the originary story. This work considers the effects that each mode of dissemination of a narrative has on the other.
