Gary Sherbert, Annie Gerin and Sheila Petty, Editors
``The introduction, `A Poetics of Canadian Culture,' by co-editor
Garry Sherbert, is an excellent and trenchant discussion of
`culture' and as such it tackles the vexed issue of its definition
and the tricky question of both its specificity and its
uncertainty.'' -- Berkeley Kaite -- Canadian Literature, Number
195, Winter 2007, 200805
``In taking as their object of study the relations between specific
cultural practices or discourses, everyday life and larger
structures of power, the essays in this collection together
reveal...the basis of the best sort of cultural studies being
practiced in this country.... [An] important antholog[y].'' --
Peter Dickinson -- Topia, Volume 18, 200802
``Expertly edited...Canadian Cultural Poesis is an

Cultural Poesis is very highly recommended.'' -- James A. Cox,
