Department of English 

Subject B.C. Studies Program ? 

Date 

?

26 July, 1978 

When the B.C. Studies program was introduced in Senate over a year ago, 

I remember making some comment about the lack of literary content in that 

program. I regret to see that there hasn't been any action about this 

since I spoke, and would like to recommend that you take some steps to 

include a literary component in future planning of the course. 

It seems to me that in any B.C. Studies program there should be a require- 

ment for a literary course or, failing that, a continuing option to take 

one. We have at present in the Department a number of courses that should 

be of interest to B.C. Studies. George Bowering is giving a course in the 

Fall under the rubric Topics in Canadian Literature, English 360, the course 

called "Some Fiction Set in British Columbia." The course includes works by 

Ethel Wilson, Sheila Watson, Malcolm Lowry, Margaret Laurence, and Jane Rule. 

As you know,

this Fall at Fraser Valley College, Ralph Maud is giving a course 

in the literature of the native peoples of B.C., also under the rubric "Topics 

in Canadian Literature,"English 360. 

?

It is also very possible that one or 

other of our courses in Canadian literature could be adapted for the B.C. Studies 

program. 

•

I hope that you will consider these options and also that the Department of 

English will be able to make arrangements to have these courses given within 

the B.C. Studies program.

SOME FICTION SET IN BRITISH COLUMBIA 

When I was a college student, I was always reading books set In Chicago 

and Africa, 

and

sometimes Montreal. I would have enjoyed 

some 

writing about 

B.C. 

Now

that I am a teacher, I say to myself, "Why not make a reading list 

about B.C.?" So I did, and it looks like a pretty good selection of Canadian 

fiction.
