" The unprecedented attention directed towards Quebec in recent years has led to a wealth of published works about that province. Many secondary schools, colleges, and universities now offer courses in French Canadian Civilization, and it is to facilitate these studies that this bibliography of contemporary writings has been compiled. Arranged by subject, the references list both French and English works, with titles of translations included if they exist. The author has limited himself chiefly to books published during the past twenty years, but some extremely useful, older publications have been included. The comprehensive range of topics covered includes Arts and Folklore, Culture, Economy and Education, Geography and History, Journalism, Law, Literature, Politics, Religion- virtually every aspect of Quebec life. Author Jacques Cotnam was born and educated in Quebec and received his degrees at Laval University. Since 1964 he has taught in the Department of French Literature at York University in Toronto, where he is now Associate Professor. He has published four books, Faut-Il inventer un nouveau Canada?, Poetes du Quebec, Vivre au Quebec (of which he is co-editor), and Essai de bibliographie chronologique des ecrits d' Andre Gide, plus numerous articles and papers on French and French Canadian literature, culture, and politics." –Publisher.
