Book excerpt: In 1933, the Banff School opened in the stunning surroundings of Banff National Park in the Canadian Rockies. From its beginnings offering a single drama course, it has since grown into the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity, a renowned cultural destination. Uplift traces its first four decades as it generated ideals of culture and liberal democratic citizenship intrinsic to the development of modern Canada. In an era of unstable cultural policy and state support, Uplift draws welcome attention to the continued place of the arts, culture, and the humanities in public education and a life well lived.

Excerpt: ... friends the Duke Alexander of Gordon, the patriotic Earl of Findlater, and the Earls of Fife, &c. But, like numerous other families, it is almost without a representative in the town, and makes us exclaim--" What a change fifty or a hundred years makes in our social circles." I, who am not quite an octogenarian, have seen four representatives of the Dukes of Gordon, four Earls of Fife, four of the house of Findlater and Seafield, four of the Lord Banff Family, four of the Gardens of Troup, four of the Gordons of Park, &c, all more or less connected with the town; and where are our own great denizens who held a dignified place among us?---the Duffs, the Diroms, the Gordons, the Donaldsons, the Youngs, the Ogilvies, the Shands, the Gardens, the Abercrombies, the Forbesses, the Innesses, the Saunderses, the Urquharts, the Alexanders, the Cassies, the Grants, the Reids, the Abernethys, the Strachans, the Kyles, the Lawties, the Bartlets, the Roses, the Souters, the M'Killigins, the Robertsons, the Gilberts, the Chalmers, the Wilsons, the Cordiners, the Bruces, the Russells, the M'Kenzies, the Smiths, the Wisemans, the Williamsons, the Cruickshanks, the Camerons, the Pringles, the Leslies, the Imlachs. Alas! many of them in our old kirkyard. Banff being the county town, and therefore the seat of the Sheriff Courts for the county, it may be proper to notice that the Society of Solicitors of the county was incorporated by Royal Charter in 1840, and the Society has a free fund of upwards of 2000. The solicitors have a good library. The Court House is at present quite unsuitable for the business of the Court; but arrangements are presently in progress for the erection of a new and handsome building on a site on Low Street, nearly opposite...
Download or read book Spirits of the Rockies written by Courtney W. Mason and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The BanffBow Valley in western Alberta is the heart of spiritual and economic life for the Nakoda peoples. While they were displaced from the region by the reserve system and the creation of Canada's first national park, in the twentieth century the Nakoda reasserted their presence in the valley through involvement in regional tourism economies and the Banff Indian Days sporting festivals. Drawing on extensive oral testimony from the Nakoda, supplemented by detailed analysis of archival and visual records, Spirits of the Rockies is a sophisticated account of the situation that these Indigenous communities encountered when they were denied access to the Banff National Park. Courtney W. Mason examines the power relations and racial discourses that dominated the eastern slopes of the Canadian Rocky Mountains and shows how the Nakoda strategically used the Banff Indian Days festivals to gain access to sacred lands and respond to colonial policies designed to repress their cultures.

Download or read book A History of Aberdeen and Banff Classic Reprint written by William Watt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Aberdeen and Banff The History of the Shires of Aberdeen and Banfi' was undertaken by Mr Alexander Allardyce, and at the time of his decease he had carried the work, at least in outline, as far as the early years of the Reforma tion period. When the task, auspiciously begun by him, devolved upon another, it seemed desirable, on various grounds, that the writer should make himself responsible for the whole book. The proportions to be allotted to the different parts were accordingly determined afresh, and the treatment proceeded from the beginning in conformity with the writer's estimate of the significance of events and his interpretation of the manifold data with which he had to deal. But portions of the materials left by Mr Allardyce have been used, and frequently also there is an incidental indebtedness to him in the early chapters.
