North of the Border : Whose Postnationalism?

North of the Border : Whose Postnationalism?

Brief piece arguing that the inclusion of Canadian and North American French cultures into the scope of consideration for the discipline of "American Studies" appears just an extension of the subject's methodological scope, and too little attentive to the culture realities of the United States' northern neighbors. A scholarly cautioning against "the mere imposition of a U.S. template on a different context" (360). Some suggestions for how cultural scholarship might be carried forward in the best consideration of the Québécois(e), Acadian, and Franco American, in light of particular traditions and approaches of American literary study.
