The Northern or Northwestern is a genre in various arts that tell stories set primarily in the late 19th or early 20th century in the north of North America, primarily in western Canada but also in Alaska. It is similar to the Western genre, but many elements are different, as appropriate to its setting. It is common for the central character to be a Mountie instead of a cowboy or sheriff. Other common characters include fur trappers and traders, lumberjacks, prospectors, First Nations people, settlers, and townsfolk.

  • Northern of Northwestern is een genre uit film, televisie en literatuur, welke zich kenmerkt door een idealisering van het leven in de Canadese wildernis en platteland, hoewel ook Alaska en het noorden van de Verenigde Staten als decor voor Northern-verhalen kunnen dienen. Het genre is in dit opzicht uitwisselbaar met het Western-genre; verhalen in de twee genres zijn doorgaans hetzelfde, alleen de locatie verschilt. De hoofdrollen in Northern-verhalen zijn vaak weggelegd voor Mounties, gelijk aan hoe in Westerns cowboys en revolverhelden vaak de hoofdrol hebben. (nl)
