AJ09999 Postupová zkouška || AJ01002 Anglický jazyk II What is multiculturalism? What does it mean to be Canadian? What is a hyphenated identity? In order to answer these questions, this intensive course will acquaint students with the concept of multiculturalism as official Canadian policy and as lived experience(s). The concept’s history, positive and negative criticism as well as its everyday functionality will be analysed primarily through a selection of literary texts by famous Canadian authors such as: Susanna Moodie, Margaret Atwood, Neil Bissoondath, Rohinton Mistry, SKY Lee, Joy Kogawa, Austin Clarke, Dionne Brand. The cultural mosaic of Canada will be further exemplified by First Nations authors Thomas King and Eden Robinson. The theoretical and critical background to the reading of primary texts will be provided by key Canadian scholars such as Linda Hutcheon, Stephen Slemon, Diana Brydon, Smaro Kamboureli, Terry Goldie, Daniel David Moses and others.
