Donna Bennett is an Associate Professor of English (retired) at the University of Toronto Scarborough (UTSC). Her research focuses on Canadian literature and criticism, canon theory, and the interplay between media and literature. She holds a BA from Binghamton University and an MA from the University of Connecticut.
Her work explores the development of literary canons, identities (individual, familial, national, and transnational), and the concept of 'polybridity'—the formation of identity through multiple cultural heritages. Recent research emphasizes how overlapping traditions shape individual and collective identities.
Bennett has co-edited major publications, including A New Anthology of Canadian Literature in English (2002) and Canadian Short Stories (2005). Her articles analyze authors like Alice Munro and Northrop Frye, addressing narrative techniques and visionary traditions in Canadian writing.
