麻豆AV

Although shortlived, these publications would have lasting effects on the nation鈥檚 literature: 聽The poets behind what would is now known as the Montreal Movement 鈥斅�Leon Edel, Leo Kennedy, A.M. Klein, F.R. Scott, A.J.M. Smith聽鈥� shifted Canadian poetry from the Victorian tradition of the Confederation Poets to modernist practice tradition. The Canadian novel would soon undergo a similar sea change. At a time when Canada was only publishing two per cent of the fiction Canadians were reading,聽Dorothy Duncan聽told her struggling would-be novelist husband, 鈥淣obody's going to understand Canada until she evolves a literature of her own, and you're the fellow to start bringing Canadian novels up to date.鈥� The result,聽Barometer Rising聽(1941), drew on聽Hugh MacLennan鈥檚 own experience as a survivor of the Halifax Explosion, and arguably marked a rebirth of the Canadian novel. MacLennan went on to win five Governor General鈥檚 Awards, and taught English literature at 麻豆AV from 1954 to 1979. One particular student would go on to publish two acclaimed novels and several volumes of verse, before reinventing himself as a singer-songwriter:聽Leonard Cohen听(叠础1955).
