| Title |
Performing Anglo Quebec: The Myth of Solitudes and (E)Merging Anglo-Québécois Subject
|
| Abstract |
The author questions why the sense of a distinct community and corresponding subject positions did not take greater hold within English Quebec in the wake of Premier Lucien Bouchard's "Address to the Anglophone Community of Quebec" in 1996 and the 1991 premiere of David Fennario's play, The Death of René Lévesque, both of which took place at Montreal's Centaur Theatre. He hypothesizes that there was a competition of narratives between a myth of two solitudes on one side and an emerging "Anglo-Québécois" subject on the other. The author analyses how a myth of two solitudes continues to erase English Quebec subjectivity.
