Описание: This text offers a revisionist analysis of Spanish fiction from 1900 to 1940. Tracing the history of public discourse on gender from the 1890s through to the 1930s, it examines the work of both men and women writers and how they practised differing forms of modernism.
To those who study the integration of immigrants in Western countries, both Muslims and Canada are seen to be exceptions to the rule. Muslims are often perceived as unable or unwilling to integrate, mostly due to their religious beliefs, and Canada is portrayed as a model for successful integration. This book addresses the intersection of these two types of exceptionalism through an empirical study of the experiences of Muslim integration within Canadian society. Replete with practical implications, the analysis shows that instead of fixating on religion, the focus should be on the economic and social challenges Muslims in Canada face.
