Summary/Abstract: Developing on 150 years of reviews and scholarship of Charles Sangster’s The St. Law- rence and the Saguenay, this paper contends that Sangster’s poem is not merely derivative of British and American Romantic poetry, or a vague tourist poem, but that Sangster employs the language and images of Christian pilgrimage to purposefully detail the pilgrimage of his soul.
