Nellie L. McClung and the Fiction of Eugenic Feminism

غلاف Cecily Devereux: Growing a Race (PDF)

Cecily Devereux reconsiders the extent to which Mc Clung’s enduring legacy of crusading for women’s rights is founded on the ideas of British eugenicists such as Francis Galton and Caleb Saleeby and implicated in the passage of eugenical legislation in Canada. In a critical study of Painted Fires, the Pearlie Watson books, and several short stories, Devereux attempts to understand Mc Clung’s fiction in terms of its engagement with a politics of "race" and nation and constructions of specifically "racial" impurities that many women saw themselves as uniquely able to "cure."
