Medievalism in English Canadian Literature from Richardson to Atwood is not only a rare, but also valuable contribution to medievalist studies in the context of Canada and Canadian literature.
Studia Anglica Posnaniensia
While a collection such as this clearly has importance for other scholars studying either medievalism more widely,
or the specific writers examined, it also offers some perceptive insights into medieval or quasi-medieval models and motifs that helped to shape Canadian social and cultural institutions, particularly during the formative decades of the Dominion, from parliamentary architecture to the physical and intellectual construction of universities. These insights are nicely and concisely brought together by Toswell and Czarnowus in their
well-written Introduction.
