The Canadian West in Fiction: a Thematic Approach for High Schools

McMullin, Stanley E.

English Quarterly, 4, 3, 65-70, F 71

The important aspect of a thematic approach is that it can link the literature with the society that produced it. It can help to foster a sense of place in students. It helps to isolate the basic myths which underlie the Canadian response to life. (Author)
