Canadian literature is the literature of a group of multicultural communities, written in languages including Canadian English, Canadian French, and Indigenous languages. Influences on Canadian writers are broad both geographically and historically, representing Canada's diversity in culture and region.
Canadian literature is often divided into French- and English-language literatures, which are rooted in the literary traditions of France and Britain, respectively.[1] The earliest Canadian narratives were of travel and exploration.[2] This progressed into three major themes that can be found within historical Canadian literature; nature, frontier life, Canada's position within the world, all three of which tie into the garrison mentality, a condition shared by all colonial era societies in their beginnings, but sometimes erroneously thought to apply mainly to Canada because a Canadian intellectual coined the term.[3] In recent decades Canada's literature has been strongly influenced by immigrants from around the world.[4] Since the 1980s, Canada's ethnic and cultural diversity has been openly reflected in its literature,[5] which by the 1990s was widely appreciated around the world.[5]
