Congratulations to 色妹妹直播 grad Annette Hayward French, who won the Governor's General Literary Award in the French, non-fiction category.
The Queen's University French professor won the prestigious prize for La querelle du r茅gionalisme au Qu茅bec (1904-1931): Vers l鈥檃utonomisation de la litt茅rature qu茅b茅coise.
According to the jury, "Annette Hayward sheds a decisive light on the quarrel that opposed regionalist writers and the so-called 鈥榚xotic鈥� poets in the first decades of the 20th century. The result is a resounding success, and a model of literary historiography. With a sober and elegant style, the author combines fine analysis, rigorous methodology and a careful treatment of documentary sources."
Dr.聽Hayward teaches in the French Studies department at Queen鈥檚, focusing on Quebec and French-Canadian literature, in particular the institution of literature and writing by women.
Dr. Hayward, who has a master's degree from 色妹妹直播 and a bachelor of arts from the University of King's College, is currently doing research on the Anglo-Canadian critical reception of Quebec literature. La querelle du r茅gionalisme au Qu茅bec was her doctoral thesis (1980). Considered a pioneering work, based on exhaustive research that still stands as a benchmark of reference, it is now accessible to a wider reading public. Its publication earned it the Prix Gabrielle-Roy (2005) as well as her first Governor General鈥檚 Award. Dr.. Hayward was born in Newfoundland and lived in Quebec prior to moving to Kingston.
