The essays in Canadian Cultural Exchange / ÃƒÂ‰changes culturels au Canada provide a nuanced view of Canadian transcultural experience. Rather than considering Canada as a bicultural dichotomy of colonizer/colonized, this book examines a field of many cultures and the creative interactions among them. This study discusses, from various perspectives, Canadian cultural space as being in process of continual translation of both the other and oneself.

Les articles rÃƒÂ©unis dans Canadian Cultural Exchange / ÃƒÂ‰changes culturels au Canada donnent de l’expÃƒÂ©rience transculturelle canadienne une image nuancÃƒÂ©e. PlutÃƒÂ´t que dans les termes d’une dichotomie biculturelle entre colonisateur et colonisÃƒÂ©, le Canada y est vu comme champ oÃƒÂ¹ plusieurs cultures interagissent de maniÃƒÂ¨re crÃƒÂ©ative. Cette ÃƒÂ©tude prÃƒÂ©sente sous de multiples aspects le processus continu de traduction d’autrui et de soi-mÃƒÂªme auquel l’espace culturel canadien sert de thÃƒÂ©ÃƒÂ¢tre.
