Abstract:
Guidée par un questionnement sur la part imaginaire de l’identité, nous abordons le voyage de Tocqueville au Bas-Canada comme une excursion à la recherche du Même. À une réflexion sur la différence entre les Canadiens français et les Français, sur leur apparente ressemblance, sur le contraste du rapport des Canadiens français avec les Américains et les Anglais et, dans une moindre mesure, avec les Français, succède une prise de position marquée de Tocqueville pour l’affirmation du fait français au Canada. Dans ce pays qu’il considère comme une nouvelle vieille France, le jeune aristocrate bros

Abstract:
The May 2004 decision of the London High Court in the matter of Thomson v. Christie's captured the interest of the salacious British press for its glamorous players: the Canadian heiress, the English aristocrat, and the international auction house. Taylor Thomson, the daughter of billionaire newspaper baron, Lord Thomson of Fleet, sued both the Marquess of Cholmondeley, a bachelor filmmaker with a fortune valued at over £100 million, and Christie's Auction House, for misrepresenting a pair of gilt and porphyry urns she purchased from Cholmondeley at a Christie's sale in London in 1994 for just

Abstract:
The article investigates how the gothic tradition of early eighteenth century has evolved into its present twentieth century form by building on its staple ingredients of awe, fear, heightened imagination, dark subterranean vaults, persecuted heroines and malevolent aristocrats. During the Romantic period the external paraphernalia of gothic devices began to be internalized, which marks the most important shift in the genre. The external markers became the internal states of the individual. The consciousness, imagination and freedom of the individual tended to be valued more than his conformat

Abstract:
Our identity is formed in large part by the way we see others and the way others, in their turn, see us. This is true both of Québec and of Édouard, one of the principal characters of the fictionalised Montréal universe of Michel Tremblay. A representative of the pre-1970s socio-economic inequality of French-Canadians, Édouard is further marginalised by his homosexuality. In his transvestite persona as the Duchesse de Langeais, a revised version of a Balzacian heroine, he undertakes a mocking critique of the injustices of his society from the ‘external’ point of view of this supposed French ar

Abstract:
Scholars have often assumed that the Upper Canadian social class system was shaped by a hierarchical and landed patronage system known as the Family Compact. Based on the views of Bishop John Strachan and Lieutenant Governor John Graves Simcoe, this Family Compact is viewed as a post-War of 1812 development and is said to replace the oligarchy that was in place in 1791. An examination of the Loyalist settlement townships, in particular Ernestown Township and the Cataraqui Townships, suggests instead that a mercantile aristocracy of patronage and wealth existed by 1791, including Richard Cartwr

Abstract:
Introduction The purpose of this paper is to explore discourses of ‘ability’ and ‘ableism’. Terms such as abled, dis-abled, en-abled, dis-enabled, diff-abled, transable, assume different meanings as we eliminate ‘species-typical’ as the norm and make beyond ‘species-typical’ the norm. This paper contends that there is a pressing need for society to deal with ableism in all of its forms and its consequences. The discourses around 'able' and 'ableism' fall into two main categories. The discourse around species-typical versus sub-species-typical as identified by certain powerful members of the sp

Abstract:
Like any genre or mode, the Gothic is malleable, changing according to time and place. This is particularly apparent when what is considered Gothic in one era is compared with that of another. The giant helmet that falls from the sky in Horace Walpole’s Castle of Otranto (1764) is a very different threat to the ravenous vampires that stalk the novels of Anne Rice, just as Ann Radcliffe’s animated portraits may not inspire anxiety for a contemporary reader of Stephen King. The mutability of Gothic is also apparent across various versions of national Gothic that have emerged, with the specificit

Lors d'une conférence prononcée en 1922, Louis Alexandre Taschereau, premier ministre du Québec et d'ascendance noble, fait l'apologie de la noblesse canadienne en insistant sur le fait qu'elle occupe toujours le premier rang de la société. À l'inverse, une certaine historiographie (Ouellet, 1966; Brunet 1969 ; Séguin, 1970) a prétendu que le groupe nobiliaire a perdu son autorité dès la Cession de la Nouvelle-France. Il est indéniable que la noblesse s'est transformée lorsque la période préindustrielle a peu à peu laissé place à l'ère industrielle, mais dans quelle mesure? Cette thèse poursui

This chapter addresses the volume’s theme of land by exploring the intellectual, political and practical impact of Britain’s aristocracy and gentry on emigration, settlement and land reform movements in the Scottish Highlands and Atlantic Canada. It does this through a series of case studies that covers the period from c.1800 to the early twentieth century. It addresses questions of class, diaspora, and the transnational movement of people, ideas and systems.

Abstract:
Abstract After the astonishing successes of the Seven Years War (1756-63), during which the British conquered Canada, drove the French out of West Africa, took Havana from the Spanish, and asserted the supremacy of the British navy over all its European rivals, the euphoria of acquired empire evaporated with speed. One anxiety was that the British empire was now supported by oppressive military might. The parallel with the militaristic Roman empire, which had grown out of the Roman republic so admired by the earlier eighteenth-century aristocracy, began to seem pressing; it was rendered unavoi

This chapter examines the early debates over colonization proposals for Nova Scotia from the end of the Seven Years’ War to the outbreak of the American Revolution and argues that these discussions highlighted larger questions over the nature and future of Britain’s Atlantic colonies. A division emerged between advocates of small-scale landholdings based on freehold tenure, such as Alexander McNutt, and the more aristocratic approach which favoured tenant-populated estates.
