Robert Flaherty’s groundbreaking "Nanook of the North, 1922" - the chronicle of one year in the life of an Inuit hunter and his family in the Hudson Bay region - was the first full-length anthropological documentary in cinematic history. Before Nanook, Flaherty endured a number of failures, disappointments, and false starts. Drawing from the unpublished diaries of Flaherty and his wife, Frances, Robert Christopher’s biography fills in crucial background in the emergence of a documentary film legend. Previous biographical emphasis on Nanook has not only obscured Flaherty’s ear

Canadians have demonstrated a remarkable sense of unity about protection of their "cultural industries" during the continuing national debate over free trade.

They suggest that the Canadian version of American popular culture

Much has been missed by social researchers in their attempt to understand the human experience as a series of rational, cognitive choices. Human subjectivity in lived experience, both that of the subject and that of the researcher, is the topic of this volume, an important corrective to the cool, disdainful stance of most previous social research. The twelve contributors examine various aspects of the subject - the emotions, the gendered nature of experiences, the body-mind relationsip, perceptions of time, place and setting, understanding of the self - and how these elements provide a fuller
