Hi Moira, all,<br>
<br>
The Macdonald Institute, which was one of the three founding
colleges of the University of Guelph, began teaching Canadian
Literature in its English Literature course offerings in 1907.
Margery Fee's article called "Canadian Literature and English
Studies in the Canadian University" (<i>Essays in Canadian Writing</i>
1992/93 Issue 48) provides a good account of the subject's
evolution.<br>
<br>
I haven't been able--in my admittedly cursory review--to discern
whether there was any Canadian drama component... <br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Kathryn<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi everyone,
I was wondering if someone could direct me to information on the following:
When the first Canadian Literature courses at the Graduate and Undergraduate level were taught at the University of Toronto.
When the first Canadian Drama courses at the Graduate and Undergraduate level were taught at the University of Toronto.
If different from above, where and when the first Canadian Literature and Canadian Drama courses were taught in Canada.
I'm not finding it hard to find material on when specific drama programs were initiated in Canada - but discovering when specific courses were introduced has been a bit more difficult where I've not been able to get into archives to go through old academic calendars.
Any help on this would be much appreciated!
