Download or read book Letters from a Young Emigrant in Manitoba written by Ronald A. Wells and published by Univ. of Manitoba Press. This book was released on 1981-01-01 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Letters from a Young Emigrant in Manitoba first published in 1883 and long out of print, is one of the best records of Canadian immigrant life. The letters were written by Edward ffolkes, who left England in 1880 to study at the Ontario Agricultural College in Guelph and later to homestead in southern Manitoba. They describe with rare insight the daily struggles and expectations of an “ordinary” man who had the courage to take up a new life on the frontier. Ronald A. Wells has introduced the volume with a wide-ranging essay on the role of popular knowledge about Canada in Britain and the significant shift of British migration from the United States for Canada at the end of the nineteenth century. This edition has been designed in the style of the original, with the addition of Norman Schmidt’s evocative line drawings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collected Writings by Joseph J. Goodman A Book Found A Life Revealed A Legacy Preserved Enlightening and TouchingLong Lost Book Takes Readers on an Amazing Emotional and Historical Journey In 2008 Leah Hammer found her grandfathers book, Collected Writings, at the Yiddish Book Center in Amherst, Massachusetts. Gezamelte Shriften, published entirely in Yiddish in 1919, has now been translated into English and presented in this bilingual edition. Collected Writings turned out to be a remarkable collection of poetry, essays and stories, not only about the author, Joseph J. Goodman, but also about the Canadian Jewish immigrant experience. The editor of Collected Writings, Harriet Goodman Hoffman, also a granddaughter of Joseph Goodman, is a professional genealogist. Realizing a treasure had been discovered that would give his descendants an incredible opportunity to know their ancestor, she has researched and written an extensive chronology about Goodmans life, a biography of his Russian years, information about people and places mentioned in the text, the growth of the Canadian Jewish community, and the Yiddish language. Hoffmans work is a model of how to prepare and publish literary works discovered during genealogical research. Bilingual edition translated for the first time into English from the original Yiddish. For more than a thousand years, Yiddish was the language of Ashkenazi Jews. Unlike most languages spoken in particular areas, Yiddish at the height of its usage, was spoken by millions of Jews of different nationalities. This side-by-side YiddishEnglish format of Collected Writings maintains the authors intention to preserve the Yiddish language. This presentation allows the authors work to be shown as it appeared in the original 1919 publication Harriet Goodman Hoffman, Joseph Goodmans granddaughter, is a professional genealogist. She has appended an extensive chronology of Josephs life, biographical information about his Russian and young adult years, sections about some of the people and places mentioned in the book, and a brief discussion about the Yiddish language. Hannah Berliner Fischthal, PhD, is an adjunct Professor of English at St. Johns University, New York. In addition to having published widely about Yiddish and Jewish literature, she serves as a Yiddish translator for Jewishgen.org, and is co-Book Review Editor of Studies in American Jewish Literature (SAJL). Dr. H.B. Fischthal has provided a comprehensive Translators Introduction for the text. Collected Writings by J. J. Goodman is a remarkable text. The author probably valued his poetry the mostYet I believe that it is as a Jewish settler in Canada, as an intellectual and a writer, as a reporter of the provinces in the early twentieth century, that he reaches his greatest heights Hannah Berliner Fischthal From Translators Introduction

Download or read book Land and the Liberal Project written by Éléna Choquette and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2024-05-15 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canada was a small country in 1867, but within twenty years its claims to sovereignty spanned the continent. With Confederation came the vaunting ambition to create an empire from sea to sea. How did Canada lay claim to so much land so quickly? Land and the Liberal Project examines the tactics deployed by Canadian officialdom from the first articulation of expansionism in 1857 to the consolidation of authority following the 1885 North-West Resistance. Éléna Choquette contends that although the dominion purported to absorb Indigenous lands through constitutionalism, administration, and law, it often resorted to force in the face of Indigenous resistance. She investigates the liberal concept that underpinned land appropriation and legitimized violence: Indigenous territory and people were to be “improved,” the former by agrarian capitalism, the latter by enforced schooling. By rethinking this tainted approach to nation making, Choquette’s clear-eyed exposé of the Canadian expansionist project offers new ways to understand colonization.
