Boundaries, Borders, and Barriers: Marie-Claire Blais and the Archival Adventure.
Literary archives often reflect the individual writer, and, in the case of Marie-Claire Blais, especially illustrate her complexity. An overall picture of the core Blaisian archival collections, including media, in Canada, the United States, and France is briefly presented, with some discussion of c...

An overall picture of the core Blaisian archival collections, including media, in Canada, the United States, and France is briefly presented, with some discussion of challenges posed for the researcher concerning their access and use. To illustrate some insights afforded into Blais's literary development in the first 10 years of her career, letters from three archives, the Fonds Judith Jasmin in Montreal, the Wilson collections at Yale University, and the Barbara Deming Papers at Radcliffe College, are studied together with related material from Blais's memoir "Parcours d'un écrivain: Notes améicaines," Wilson's published letters and diaries, and Mary Meigs's autobiography "Lily Briscoe: A Self-Portrait." Some observations and ideas concerning multidimensional innovators such as Blais and the archival issues thus raised are explored, with a suggested role for our national institutions. Les archives littéraires reflètent souvent l'écrivain individuel et, dans le cas de Marie-Claire Blais, mettent en evidence sa complexité. Une vue d'ensemble des principales collections des œuvres de Mme Blais, y compris les médias, au Canada, aux États-Unis et en France est présentée brièvement avec une discussion des défis affrontés par le chercheur concernant l'accès et l'utilisation de ces archives. Pour illustrer quelque peu le développement littéraire de Mme Blais au cours des dix premières années de sa carrière, des lettres de trois archives—le Fonds Judith Jasmin à Montréal, les collections Wilson à l'université Yale et les documents Barbara Deming au collège Radcliffe—sont étudiées avec du matériel connexe du mémoire de Mme Blais intitulé Parcours d'un écrivain notes américaines, les lettres et joumaux personnels publiés de Wilson ainsi que l'autobiographie de Mary Meigs intitulée Lily Briscoe: A Self-Portrait. Certaines observations et idées sont présentées sur des innovateurs multidimensionnels comme Mme Blais et les problèmes archivistiques que cela cause, et des suggestions sont faites concernant le rôle de nos institutions nationales. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Journal of Canadian Studies is the property of University of Toronto Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
