Atwood, Margaret
Writer in Residence, University of Toronto
Getting Out From Under
The difference between being a "thing" and being "distinguished" in Canada. The difference between being a writer and being a "thing." Ms. Atwood describes her own background, especially literary, and notoriety and its consequences. "
a literature that a society creates and the society itself are not separable." Comments and reactions to her book "Survival." A wry discussion of various "isms," especially a variety of "nationalisms" pertinent to Canada; also hysteria and paranoia and anti-"isms." Ends with the paradoxical comment that "nationalism right now is an international movement."
