SUMMARY:Imagining the North in Canadian Literature
DESCRIPTION:ENGL 2463: Imagining the North in Canadian Literature with Renée Hulan \n—— \nThe class is currently being offered online\, but may switch to in-person later in the term. Register on the SMU website: https://studio.smu.ca/librarycourses \nThis course unsettles the representation of Canada as “true north” in literature and culture. By studying northern historiography and reading selected literary works depicting the Canadian North\, we will see how the imagined North has changed over time.  \nThe readings will include selections by Inuit and other northern Indigenous peoples\, and the examination will be presented in relation to important contemporary topics\, such as Arctic sovereignty\, climate change\, and Indigenous knowledge. \n—— \nUniversity Classes for Everyone\, presented by Saint Mary’s University and Halifax Public Libraries\, encourages you to explore lifelong learning – for free! \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/289739843191011/?event_time_id=289741199857542

SUMMARY:Battle Tales VII: Battle...With A Vengeance
DESCRIPTION:Are you ready? \nWe can’t hear you! \nWe SAID – Are… You… READY!!? \nYes\, it’s that time of year again\, folks!  \nAll ye Battlers\, gather your skill\, sharpen your wit and bring your “A” (and E\, I\, O\, U and sometimes Y) game\, because the seventh annual Battle Tales has arrived! \nYour THREE prompts for Battle Tales VII: Battle…With A Vengeance ARE: \n1. The gnashing of teeth2. A gleaming blade3. A dark tower looming in the distance \nOur second pandemic winter is almost over\, and with it comes the (hopefully) last stand of a desperate virus cornered by the miracle of modern science and the resilience of humanity in the face of great odds. By summer beach season\, many will be vaxxed\, waxed and ready to relax\, but before we see sunnier and better days\, the bitter chill of winter must be warmed by the heat of glorious battle… \nIn the span of 2\,500 words or fewer\, we humbly ask for your best and brightest short fiction to entertain and enlighten. Wow our illustrious judge with adventurous tales of derring-do\, or scandalous stories of murder most fowl – maybe the chicken did it! Now he’s gonna FRY! \nWhatever creative choices you choose to employ\, your story MUST incorporate all three prompts listed above. Beyond that? The breadth of your fictional world is yours to explore and conquer\, limited only by your imagination! \nUse the prompts as your opening lines\, or as the seeds of a greater mystery afoot\, or as pivotal plot points – creatively or passively\, the choice is yours and yours alone! \nAnd now\, dear Battlers\, the stage is set\, the stakes have been raised\, and the clarion call has been sent out to one and all. But before Battle commences\, heed the rules so a fair fight may ensue: \n– No names on entries (judging is blind!) – You MUST be a resident of Prince Edward Island to enter– Stories must be 2\,500 words or less– Anything received by 11:59 pm on Saturday\, February 26th will be accepted \nAnd that’s it! So without further ado… \nLET THE BATTLE BEGIN!! \n*To submit your story\, click on the following link\, or visit www.peiwritersguild.com for more details* \nSUBMIT: https://peiwritersguild.submittable.com/submit \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/267636955510886/
