Download or read book Quebec and Its Historians written by Serge Gagnon and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 1998-03-24 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Priest-ridden and church dominated OCo that is what most Canadians thought about Quebec social and intellectual life until recently. For a century, historical scholarship did not escape clerical influence, nor that nationalism which emanated from a people conscious that their nation had been defeated and colonized by the British. Bring on the Jesuits and their devotion to the Church, French civilization, and the conversion of the Amerindians That era has now passed, as Universit(r) du Qu(r)bec historian Serge Gagnon reveals in this searching study of Quebec historiography during the past quarter century. In the persons of Louise Dech-ne and Fernand Ouellet, Quebec has produced two of the most innovative and imaginative practitioners of the new social history. Not only are the questions asked of the past much more intriguing, but these two historians have assiduously mined new primary sources in order to provide fresh approaches that clarify our understanding of QuebecOCOs evolution. Gagnon is best at providing a penetrating evaluation and critique of the work of these two major historians. His book is a series of particular studies rather than a comprehensive synthesis. The author is relatively unconvincing in his attempt to draw associations between the OC Quiet RevolutionOCO of the 1960s and the historical craft. His chapter on changing views of the Canadian sixteenth century fails to pull together the earlier historians that he discusses with more recent ones. Sometimes he falls into the common vice of the historiographer by lapsing into bibliography. GagnonOCOs fine analyses of the work of Dech-ne and Ouellet make this a valuable study for anyone interested in the interpretation of history. What the book so clearly shows is that what each generation considers as history is deeply rooted within intellectual traditions and contemporary concerns. The translation is commendable, but does anyone know what OC economismOCO is?"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the nineteenth-century, the writing of history in English-speaking Canada changed from promotional efforts by amateurs to an academically-based discipline. Professor Taylor charts this transition in a comprehensive history. The early historians - the promoters of the title - sought to further their own interests through exxagerated accounts of a particular colony to which they had developed a transient attachment. Eventually this group was replaced by patriots, whose writing was influenced by loyalty to the land of their brith and residence. This second generation of historians attempted both to defend their respective colonies by explaining away past disappointments and to fit events into a predicitve pattern of progress and development. In the process, they established distinctive identities for each of the British North American colonies. Eventually a confrontation occurred between those who saw Canada as a nation and those whose traditions and vistas were provincial in emphasis. Ultimately the former prevailed, only to find the present and future too complex and too ominous to understand. Historians ssubsequently lost their sense of purpose and direction and fell into partisan disagreement or pessimistic nostalgia. This abandonment of their role paved the way for the new, professional breed of historian as the twentieth century opened. In the course of his analysis, Taylor considers a number of key issues about the writing of history: the kind of people who undertake it and their motivation for doing so, the intended and actual effects of their work, its influence on subsequent historical writing, and the development of uniform and accepted standards of professional practice.

Book excerpt: In a compelling inquiry into public events ranging from the building of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial through ethnic community fairs to pioneer celebrations, John Bodnar explores the stories, ideas, and symbols behind American commemorations over the last century. Such forms of historical consciousness, he argues, do not necessarily preserve the past but rather address serious political matters in the present.--Publisher description.

"The contest over public memories involves an exclusiveness that packages "other" according to the ideological preferences of the dominant cultures.
