''Divisions on a Ground: Essays on Canadian Culture'' is a collection of essays by Canadian literary critic Northrop Frye, edited by James Polk and published in 1982. The collection includes lectures, addresses and previously published articles by Frye. ''Divisions on a Ground'' presents Frye's theorizing about Canada with respect to three main themes: Canadian literary writing, university education in Canada and internationally, and a more general "social order" perspective. This collection diverges from Frye's better-known The Bush Garden: Essays on the Canadian Imagination in its approach to Canada in that it does not present the "Canadian imagination" in isolation, but rather as one of several components of Canadian society identity. == Contents == I Writing * Culture as Interpenetration :(address read to UNESCO's International Council of Philosophy and Humanistic Studies, Montreal, Canada, September 16, 1977) * Across the River and Out of the Trees :(from ''University of Toronto Quarterly'', vol. 50, no. 1 (Fall 1980) and ''The Arts in Canada: The Last Fifty Years'' edited by W.
