註釋Starting from the premise that Canadian culture offers "particularly fertile ground for the cultivation of doubleness," this book explores the numerous forms of irony observable in Canadian literature and visual arts. Individual chapters focus on the ironies of ethnicity and race, irony as a strategy for addressing Canada's colonial past, feminists' uses of irony, and a specific case of photography and the amplification of ironies in the work of artistic collectives such as Fastwurns and General Idea. The book concludes with an examination of the political power of irony.
