From Polarity to Circumpolarity: The Future of Canadian Studies in Europe

This multidisciplinary conference examines how the deconstruction of the dualisms that have dominated in Western thought since the 17th century takes shape in Canadian studies. Building on the Canadian landscape and scholarship on its nordicity, we hypothesize a move from polarity to circumpolarity in Canadian studies conducted in Europe. This multidisciplinary conference welcomes proposals from all fields of research, in the hope of bringing together complementary perspectives on the (circum)polarities in Canadian studies.
