Описание: Louis Riel prophesied that a polyglot Metis nation would rise on the prairies five hundred years after his death, and that it would be called by the joyous name of the House of Charlemagne. This new polity would be built on the principles of Riels Massinahican , a radical philosophical system which now survives only in fragments. Its hallmarks would be justice, ontological accord, and the blurring of all separations dividing women and men, the earth and human beings. The House of Charlemagne tracks the birth of this ideal nation in the burning imagination of the young settler Henry Jackson, who took the name Honore Jaxon after his encounter with Riels vision. Commissioned by Edward Poitras as a text for dancers, Tim Lilburns poem gives voice and body to Riels prescient metaphysics. As the Jury citation said of his Governor Generals Award winning Kill-Site, Lilburns work is richly figurative, but firmly rooted in colloquial speech. He is not only a virtuoso at the linguistic level, taking risks with metaphor and line, but also steeped in a metaphysics of place.
