Summary |
"This second edition of The Portuguese in Canada features many new and updated essays and continues to fill a gap in the scholarly literature on multiculturalism in Canada." "The volume's international group of contributors represents a variety of disciplines - anthropology, geography, history, literature, linguistics, sociology, and urban planning. Together the essays convey the multifaceted contribution the Portuguese have made to Canada and consider future directions for the preservation and promotion of Portuguese-Canadian culture and heritage."--Jacket |
