Download or read book Hockey written by Jenny Ellison and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2018-04-25 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Canadians, hockey is the game. Shared experiences and memories—lacing up for the first time, shinny on an outdoor rink, Sidney Crosby’s historic goal, or the one scored by Maurice Richard—make hockey more than just a game. While the relationship between hockey and national identity has been studied, where does the game fit into our understanding of multiple, diverse Canadian identities today? This interdisciplinary book considers hockey, both as professional and amateur sport, and both in historical and contemporary context, in relation to larger themes in Canadian Studies, including gender, race/ethnicity, ability, sexuality, geography, and reflects upon all aspects of hockey in Canadian life: play, fandom, sports broadcasting, and community activism. This interdisciplinary scholarly collection is an extension of the “Hockey in Canada: More Than Just a Game” exhibition presented by the Canadian Museum of History. This book is published in English. Includes one chapter in French. - Le hockey est le sport des Canadiens Les expériences et les souvenirs que nous partageons – lacer ses patins pour la toute première fois, jouer une partie de hockey de rue, le but historique marqué par Sidney Crosby, ou celui de Maurice Richard – font du hockey bien plus qu’un sport. Bien que le lien entre hockey et identité nationale ait été étudié, il faut s’interroger sur la place qu’occupe ce sport dans notre compréhension des identités canadiennes diverses et multiples d’aujourd’hui. Cet ouvrage interdisciplinaire explore le hockey tant comme sport professionnel qu’amateur, depuis une approche tantôt historique, tantôt actuelle, en lien avec des problématiques en Études canadiennes, dont le genre, la race et l’ethnicité, la compétence, la sexualité, la géographique, et lance une réflexion sur les divers aspects du hockey dans la vie des Canadiens : le jeu, les supporters, la radiodiffusion, l’activisme communautaire. Cet ouvrage complète l’exposition de « Hockey : Plus qu’un simple jeu », présentée par le Musée canadien de l’histoire. Ce livre est publié en anglais. Comprend un chapitre en français.

Book excerpt: Le service des urgences de l’Hôpital général de Montréal (HGM) se trouvait si près du Forum que les joueurs du Club de hockey Canadien pouvaient enfiler leurs protège-lames et s’y rendre à pied. Cette proximité, qui n’était pas une coïncidence, est devenue au fil des ans une priorité pour le CH. À titre de médecin de l’équipe, le Dr Douglas Kinnear a assisté de l’intérieur à la conquête de douze Coupes Stanley. Pour sa part, le Dr David Mulder a fait partie pendant plus d’un demi-siècle de l’équipe médicale du Canadien qui a remporté huit Coupes Stanley au cours de son mandat. Dans l’ouvrage Hockey Doc, Cinquante ans d’anecdotes médicales avec le Club de hockey Canadien, ces deux médecins légendaires explorent la relation dynamique entre un médecin et les joueurs qu’ils ont si bien connus. Hockey Doc traite de l’évolution du programme médical du Club de hockey Canadien et de la façon dont il a été forgé par sa relation de longue date avec l’Hôpital général de Montréal et la famille Molson. Les auteurs décrivent les différents types de blessures que des joueurs de hockey sont susceptibles de subir et que leurs équipes médicales doivent savoir traiter, et racontent les hauts faits de leur carrière. L’ouvrage comporte des anecdotes savoureuses sur Saku Koivu, Trent McCleary, Patrick Roy, Maurice Richard, Gump Worsley, Bobby Orr, Guy Lafleur, Lou Lamoriello et le journaliste Red Fisher, entre autres. Hockey Doc permet au lecteur de partager le quotidien, et les situations souvent humoristiques, des joueurs et de leur médecin, tout en abordant le thème plus large de l’évolution de la médecine sportive telle que vécue par deux médecins de l’HGM. Les amateurs de hockey de tous âges et la communauté médicale québécoise liront avec plaisir Hockey Doc qui lève le voile sur les relations entre les athlètes professionnels blessés et le personnel médical d’un hôpital universitaire, ainsi que sur les blessures et maladies que les Drs Kinnear et Mulder ont traitées au cours de leur longue carrière.

Book excerpt: In the days of Roch’s childhood, winters in the village of Ste. Justine were long. Life centered around school, church, and the hockey rink, and every boy’s hero was Montreal Canadiens hockey legend Maurice Richard. Everyone wore Richard’s number 9. They laced their skates like Richard. They even wore their hair like Richard. When Roch outgrows his cherished Canadiens sweater, his mother writes away for a new one. Much to Roch’s horror, he is sent the blue and white sweater of the rival Toronto Maple Leafs, dreaded and hated foes to his beloved team. How can Roch face the other kids at the rink?

Book Hockey  PQ

  • Author : Amy Ransom
  • Publisher : University of Toronto Press
  • Release : 2014-06-09
  • ISBN : 1442670029
  • Pages : 280 pages

Download or read book Hockey PQ written by Amy Ransom and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2014-06-09 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wide-ranging study that examines everything from the blockbuster movie franchise Les Boys to the sovereigntist hip hop group Loco Locass, Hockey, PQ explores how Canada’s national sport has been used to signify a specific Québécois identity. Amy J. Ransom analyzes how Québécois writers, filmmakers, and musicians have appropriated symbols like the Montreal Forum, Maurice Richard, or the 1972 Summit Series to construct or critique images of the Québécois male. Close analyses of hockey-themed narratives consider the soap opera Lance et compte (‘He shoots, he scores’), the music of former pro player Bob Bisonnette, folk band Mes Aïeux, rock group Les Dales Hawerchuk, and the fiction of François Barcelo. Through these examinations of the role hockey plays in contemporary francophone popular culture, Ransom shows how Quebec’s popular culture uses hockey to distinguish French-Canadians from the French and to rally them against their English-speaking counterparts. In the end, however, this study illuminates how the sport of hockey unites the two solitudes.

More than 30 years later, his indomitable will to win and his focus on being the very best brought him four Stanley Cups, three Conn Smythe trophies, three Vezina trophies, and many more individual honors. An incredible hockey talent who was instrumental in changing the very art of goaltending, Roy's success was driven as much by determination and perseverance as by talent. Patrick Roy: Winning, Nothing Else brings to life Roy's phenomenal career and unmasks his more mysterious personal side. Michel Roy, the father of this great sports legend, reveals what makes Patrick tick, taking us behind the scenes and into the family life of one of the greatest goaltenders of all time.

Book Home Words

    Book Details:
  • Author : Mavis Reimer
  • Publisher : Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press
  • Release : 2008-03-18
  • ISBN : 1554580161
  • Pages : 306 pages

Download or read book Home Words written by Mavis Reimer and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2008-03-18 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in Home Words explore the complexity of the idea of home through various theoretical lenses and groupings of texts. One focus of this collection is the relation between the discourses of nation, which often represent the nation as home, and the discourses of home in children’s literature, which variously picture home as a dwelling, family, town or region, psychological comfort, and a place to start from and return to. These essays consider the myriad ways in which discourses of home underwrite both children’s and national literatures. Home Words reconfigures the field of Canadian children’s literature as it is usually represented by setting the study of English- and French-language texts side by side, and by paying sustained attention to the diversity of work by Canadian writers for children, including both Aboriginal peoples and racialized Canadians. It builds on the literary histories, bibliographical essays, and biographical criticism that have dominated the scholarship to date and sets out to determine and establish new directions for the study of Canadian children’s literature.
