First published in 1974, Mourir a Scoudouc emerged out of a period of cultural awakening. Chiasson's poems denounced the narrow limitations of the past and traced the lines of a fresh collective vision. The poems were lyrical, referentially modern, and steeped in the rhythms and forms that had emerged from the Americas, Europe, and India. More than 40 years later, Chiasson is considered to be the father of Acadian modernism, and Mourir a Scoudouc is widely regarded as one of the foundational works of modern Acadian literature. To Live and Die in Scoudouc is the first English edition of this collection. Family and relationships, poetry, Canadian author. Hermenegilde Chiasson is one of Canada's most accomplished writer-artists. He is the author of more than 20 books of poetry, over 30 plays, and several collections of essays; is an award-winning multi-disciplinary artist; and served as Lieutenant Governor of NB. Translator Jo-Anne Elder has translated many of Chiasson’s works of poetry.
