All the Feels / Tous les sens
Affect and Writing in Canada / Affect et écriture au Canada
Contributions by Nicole Brossard, Matthew Cormier, Nicoletta Dolce, Louise Dupré, Margery Fee, Ana María Fraile-Marcos, Smaro Kamboureli, Aaron Kreuter, Daniel Laforest, Carmen Mata Barreiro, Heather Milne, Eric Schmaltz, Maïté Snauwaert and Jeanette Toonder
All the Feels / Tous les sens presents research into emotion and cognition in Canadian, Indigenous, and Québécois writings in English or French. Affect is both internal and external, private and public; with its fluid boundaries, it represents a productive dimension for literary analysis. The emerging field of affect studies makes vital claims about ethical impulses, social justice, and critical resistance, and thus much is at stake when we adopt affective reading practices. The contributors ask what we can learn from reading contemporary literatures through this lens. Unique and timely, readable and teachable, this collection is a welcome resource for scholars of literature, feminism, philosophy, and transnational studies as well as anyone who yearns to imagine the world differently.

About the Authors
Reviews
"Le fait de présenter de façon complémentaire des analyses académiques et des points de vue d'écrivaines constitue un atout majeur du recueil, puisqu'il permet au lecteur de voir comment l'affect joue un rôle dans la pratique de l'écriture. S'y ajoutent la réflexion théorique qui constitue un fil rouge à travers les différentes contributions, une attention pour la particularité anglaise, française et autochtone de la littérature canadienne et une inscription engagée dans les débats qui secouent et affectent nos sociétés contemporaines." Alex Demeulenaere, Zeitschrift für Kanada-Studien 2022

"The complementary presentation of academic analysis and women writers' perspectives is a major strength of the collection, as it allows the reader to perceive the role affect plays in the practice of writing. Added to this is the theoretical reflection that runs through all the various contributions, an alertness to the English, French, and Aboriginal particularities of Canadian literature, and an engaged participation in the debates that shake and affect our contemporary societies." Alex Demeulenaere, Zeitschrift für Kanada-Studien 2022 [Translated. Article complet: http://www.kanada-studien.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/zks_2022_14_Rez.pdf]
Endorsements
"Les contributions montrent la complexité de l'affect et son importance sociale et remettent en cause les préjugés sur la séparation de l'esprit et du corps, du privé et du public, de l'individuel et du collectif. Elles proposent également une fusion bienvenue de théories engagées qui politisent les lectures à travers des perspectives queer, féministes, anticapitalistes, posthumaines, et autochtones."—Roxanne Rimstead, Professeure, Littérature canadienne comparée, Université de Sherbrooke
"The contributions cover numerous fields of scholarship and include in depth discussions of many original works as well as secondary sources, making this a compelling and diverse literary panorama replete with specific and intriguing case studies."—Sarah Henzi, Assistant Professor, Indigenous Literatures, Simon Fraser University
"Les contributions traitent de nombreux domaines de recherche et comprennent des discussions approfondies sur de nombreuses œuvres originales et sources secondaires, ce qui en fait un panorama littéraire captivant et varié, rempli d'études de cas spécifiques et fascinantes."—Sarah Henzi, Professeure adjointe, Littératures autochtones, Université Simon Fraser
