Abstract:The purpose of this paper is to tackle Canadian imagery through the looking glass of Romanian receivers from the beginnings of Canadian letters on Romanian soil to present day. Our approach is both synchronic and diachronic as we will focus on images and stereotypes for each historical period, in general and on the shifts in viewpoints from the pre-communist period to communist and post-communist times, in particular. Our theoretical framework mainly draws on Translation Studies and Reception Studies, Polysystem Theory and manipulation of literary fame, as understood by Andre Lefevere (1992), included. Our investigations rarely go beyond critics’, annotators’, prefacers’, reviewers’ and last, but not least Canadianists’ opinions, not to mention the intersections or even overlaps between the categories above.
Key words:Canadian literary reception, Romanian rewriters, impressionistic criticism
