The Editing Modernism in Canada (EMiC) project invites you to visit our new website at http://editingmodernism.ca

EMiC Online networks our project’s 32 participants and 33 partners from regions across Canada and from France, England, and the United States; it also seeks to establish new connections with other interested scholars, institutions, and publishers. Our participants and partners are editing and publishing new print and digital editions of modernist Canadian texts that have either fallen out of print or exist only in university rare-book rooms and archives. These texts from the early to mid-twentieth century include not only poetry, fiction, and drama but also autobiography, correspondence, and non-fictional prose.

The objectives of the EMiC project are:

1. to coordinate the editorial endeavors of our participants and develop new ways to connect individual projects and researchers

2. to train students and new scholars using experiential-learning pedagogies

3. to use a variety of media to distribute the collaborative research and editorial work to audiences both in Canada and internationally, and

4. to develop sustained relationships among universities, publishers, the media, public libraries, and non-profit cultural organizations (book clubs, reading groups, reading series, literary festivals) that will contribute to a public literary culture and ensure that Canadian modernism becomes an ongoing part of literary discourse in Canada.

Providing training and networking opportunities for students and new scholars is one of the top priorities of the EMiC project. We invite students and faculty to register for our annual summer institutes in textual and digital editing at Trent University (TEMiC) and the University of Victoria (DEMiC), to participate in our editorial workshops at the University of Guelph’s TransCanada Institute (2011) and Brock University (2015), and to attend our conferences at the University of Toronto (2010) and Nouvelle-Sorbonne (2012).

Additionally, the project provides graduate-student and postdoctoral funding, not only for research assistantships (for editorial projects) and internships (for partners and events) but also stipends for MA and PhD students and fellowships for postdocs working on their own editions of Canadian modernist texts under the supervision of, or in collaboration with, EMiC participants.

For information about how to apply for funding, participate in our training programs, or propose an editorial project, please visit EMiC Online or contact our project administrator at emic@dal.ca
