Ursa Major : a polyphonic masque for speakers & dancers / Robert Bringhurst. by Bringhurst, Robert. Gaspereau Press, 2009. Call #: 819.254 B858u Subjects Canadian drama -- 21st century. ISBN:  9781554470600 1554470609 Description:  90 p. ; 21 cm. Notes:  A play. Includes some text in Cree. Summary:  One of the universal stories in world mythology is that of Ursa Major, the great bear constellation. In this masque, Robert Bringhurst employs a polyphonic technique that allows multiple speakers and multiple language and traditions to collaborate to tell this story. Setting Cree tradition alongside the mythologies of ancient Greece and Rome, Bringhurst demonstrates both the richness of metaphor that North Americans have inherited and his own incredible love of language -- Book jacket.
