Canada in the age of terror: the metaphysics of the cottage

Dorland, Michael (author), Charland, Maurice (author)

This essay offers a wry analysis of the manner in which elements of Canada's rhetorical culture inflect its response to international affairs. Canada's public and private response to international conflicts in an "Age of Terror" is examined as an instance of disengagement and irony through the metaphor of the "cottage."

Abstract

Članek analizira načine, na katere elementi kanadske retorične kulture vplivajo na njene reakcije na mednarodne zadeve. Kanadska javna in zasebna reakcija na mednarodne konflikte v "dobi terorja" je obravnavana kot primer sprostitve in ironije prek metafore "počitniške hiše".
