About the Book



The author of three novels, including the award-winning Judith (1978), as well as of numerous short stories and essays, Aritha van Herk has established herself as one of the most vigorous voices and accomplished writers on the Canadian literary scene today. These Papers provide a detailed description of her holdings in the University of Calgary Library, and will be of immense value to scholars, writers, and general readers alike. Covering the period from 1973 to 1984, they describe all the material relating to Judith and The Tent Peg, and include correspondence, photographs, versions of her short stories, as well as articles and critical essays on her works. Introduced by a perceptive and scholarly biocritical essay by Professor Ian MacLaren of the University of Alberta, The Aritha van Herk Papers constitutes a rich and significant addition to the growing list of the University of Calgary's Archival Inventory Series.
