    From the 1890s through the 1920s, the best-selling fiction of Ralph Connor, Robert Stead, Nellie McClung, Lucy Maud Montgomery, and Arthur Stringer was internationally recognized. In this intriguing cultural history of the conception, production, and reception of popular fiction, Clarence Karr challenges the common assumption that best sellers are a conservative cultural influence, reflecting and promoting traditional values. By focusing on a society and its cultural leaders at a period when they were coming to grips with modernity, Karr provides a new perspective on popular culture and the interaction between readers and popular authors.

Karr places the authors' careers in an international setting and shows how, despite living a considerable distance from the leading cultural production centers of New York and London, they became internationally recognized and read."--Jacket.

    Entre 1840 et 1918, l'imprimé et le livre, qui avaient déjà contribué à l'élaboration de l'histoire et de l'identité du peuple canadien, deviennent désormais les médias de communication prédominants. Plus que jamais la culture de l'imprimé participe aux transformations qui métamorphoseront la colonie en véritable État, unifiant les peuples qui le composent. C'est cette synergie qui constituera l'un des aspects historiques et culturels les plus fascinants de cette période qui est au centre de ce deuxième volume de l'Histoire du livre et de l'imprimé au Canada. L'expansion du territoire canadien grâce à l'immigration massive, sa traversée par le chemin de fer et par la télégraphie renouvellent entièrement la dynamique de l'imprimé, de Terre-Neuve à Dawson City. Après 1880, l'imprimé de masse voit le jour grâce à la nouvelle technologie qui permet d'imprimer plus rapidement et à moindre coût, et grâce à la constitution de nouveaux marchés desservis par les librairies. Du missel au journal en passant par le livre de recette, le catalogue d'Eaton et l'almanach, les Canadiens sont dorénavant en contact quotidien avec cet objet matériel qu'est l'imprimé. Dans ce contexte, l'auteur émerge lentement, soutenu par un marché de distribution à l'échelle nord-américaine, par un nombre croissant de bibliothèques publiques et par des droits conquis pour la protection de son œuvre et sa diffusion.

    Au Canada, le XXe siècle inaugure une époque faste en matière de culture du livre et de l'imprimé. Après la Première Guerre mondiale, l'émergence de maisons d'édition indépendantes, d'associations d'auteurs, la création de prix littéraires et scientifiques et de subventions à la production, notamment au Québec, sont autant de signes de la vitalité du livre dans la transmission et la promotion d'une culture nationale, désormais projetée dans la durée et conçue comme un héritage essentiel. C'est ainsi que l'on peut voir se développer une culture du livre distincte de l'imprimerie et de la presse, où les éditeurs deviennent progressivement des architectes de la culture canadienne. Ce troisième volume de l'Histoire du livre et de l'imprimé au Canada couvre la période de 1918 à 1980, durant laquelle des transformations cruciales ont eu lieu. Ainsi, les deux grands groupes linguistiques du pays s'enrichissent de structures éditoriales distinctes, et grâce aux périodiques, les populations autochtones et les communautés ethniques et religieuses s'approprient les outils de la communication écrite pour exprimer leurs valeurs, affirmer leur appartenance sociale et créer des liens de solidarité. La Deuxième Guerre mondiale crée une demande nationale accrue pour le livre canadien qui se déploie alors sur la scène internationale. Au même moment, le cinéma, la radio et la télévision, phénomènes nouveaux, favorisent la pénétration d'une production de masse en provenance des États-Unis. L'affirmation d'une identité canadienne s'accentue encore dans les années 1960 au moment où les littératures canadienne et québécoise connaissent une période d'effervescence sans précédent. Enfin, après plus d'un siècle de luttes et de revendications, d'actions individu­elles et collectives, les gouvernements mettent en place des structures de soutien à la création littéraire et au livre qui en assureront l'essor au cours des années 1980.

    From the 1890s through the 1920s, the best-selling fiction of Ralph Connor, Robert Stead, Nellie McClung, Lucy Maud Montgomery, and Arthur Stringer was internationally recognized. In this intriguing cultural history of the conception, production, and reception of popular fiction, Clarence Karr challenges the common assumption that best sellers are a conservative cultural influence, reflecting and promoting traditional values. By focusing on a society and its cultural leaders at a period when they were coming to grips with modernity, Karr provides a new perspective on popular culture and the interaction between readers and popular authors.
