Linda Hutcheon is a Canadian feminist writer and academic. She is University Professor in the Department of English and of the Centre for Comparative Literature at the University of Toronto, where she has taught since 1988. In 2000 she was elected the 117th President of the Modern Language Association, the third Canadian to hold this position, and the first Canadian woman.
She specializes in theories of postmodernism. She has published numerous books, including The Politics of Postmodernism (Routledge, 1989). Hutcheon is also credited with coining the term historiographic metafiction, a descriptor for literary works she believes characterize postmodernism in fiction.
