In "The Quest for a 'National' Nationalism," George Elliott Clarke examines E.J. Pratt's ambition to represent Canada through epic poetry. While Pratt's works, like "Brebeuf and His Brethren," are significant literary achievements, Clarke argues that Pratt fails to authentically voice the diverse identities of all Canadians, particularly Francophones, Indigenous peoples, and People of Colour. Instead, Pratt's legacy is tied to the establishment, highlighting the limitations of his perspective as an epic poet. The lecture is part of a prestigious series honoring Pratt's influence.
