Nordic and Baltic Perspectives in Canadian Studies: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Northern Spaces Narratives

When it comes to Canadian studies, the question arises as to whether researchers are not in some way participating in the nation-brand competition. These studies were in fact designed to project the image of a nation under construction. However, the various points of view on Canada play a major role in the circulation of narrative spaces. From the perspective of the Baltic and Nordic countries, Canada remains a country of the North, and the aim of this book is to describe the contours of a transnordic narrative, highlighting texts, images and cultural objects specific to this biocultural region.
