It was in the mid-19th century that French-speaking women began to contribute to Canadian literature, partly as a result of growing Quebec patriotism but also because of the influence of the Catholic church and developments in education.[1] Early contributors include the novelists Laure Conan and Gabrielle Roy[2] and the poet Blanche Lamontagne-Beauregard.[3] Women's greatest contribution has however been since the 1960s and above all since the 1980s, triggered by increased interest in feminism.[4] Some sources have pointed to significant differences between English-Canadian and French-Canadian literature, resulting in part from the protected language identity of the Province of Quebec where French-language radio and television and pop-stars reinforce its insularity.[5]
This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by adding missing items with reliable sources.
