Debunking a Postmodern Conception of History: A Defence of Humanist Values in the Novels of Joy Kogawa

Abstract:

Errata:
The "notes" accompanying this essay are incorrectly numbered in the print edition of CanLit #148. In order that they match the superscripts in the text, Note #1 should appear as an unnumbered prefatory note; subsequent numbers should be re-numbered accordingly (#2 becomes #1; #3 becomes #2, etc.)
