Quai 21: Une histoire (Mercure #5)
Par Steven Schwinghamer, Jan Raska. 2020
Entre 1928 et 1971, près d’un million de personnes ont immigré par bateau au Canada, débarquant au Quai 21 d’Halifax,…
en Nouvelle-Écosse. Quai 21 : Une histoire (également disponible en anglais : Pier 21: A History) porte sur l’histoire de cet important centre d’immigration maritime canadien durant ses années d’activité et, ultérieurement, en tant que site de commémoration publique. Entre 1928 et 1971, presque un million d’immigrants sont arrivés par bateau au Canada, plus précisément au Quai 21, situé à Halifax en Nouvelle-Écosse. Durant toute cette période, le Quai 21 fut une des principales « portes d’entrée du Canada»; ce fut aussi le point de débarquement de presque 400 000 soldats canadiens qui rentraient au pays après avoir effectué leur service militaire en Europe durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Dans la période de l’immédiat après-guerre, le Quai 21 est devenu la porte d’entrée maritime la plus active au Canada. Aujourd’hui encore, de nombreux Canadiens entretiennent des liens particuliers avec le Quai 21, et ce, à travers leurs antécédents familiaux ou les récits d’arrivée de leurs parents sur le site du Quai 21. Depuis 1998, les chercheurs du Centre d’interprétation du Quai 21 et du Musée canadien de l’immigration ont mené de très nombreuses entrevues, examiné d’innombrables documents d’archives, compilé des récits écrits par des immigrants et acquis des photographies, des documents et d’autres objets emblématiques de l’histoire du Quai 21. Richement illustré, ce livre est le produit de ce long et patient travail de collecte. Il révèle l’histoire de cet immense hangar maritime canadien durant ses années d’activité et, ultérieurement, en tant que lieu historique national, musée et site mémoriel ouvert au grand public.Un historien dans la cité: Gaétan Gervais et l’Ontario français (Amérique française)
Par François-Olivier Dorais. 2016
À la fois témoin et acteur des grandes transformations socio-identitaires qui ont marqué l’Ontario français depuis la fin des années…
1960, Gaétan Gervais est aussi connu à titre de créateur du drapeau franco-ontarien en 1975. Les divers lieux d’enracinement de sa pensée sont étudiés depuis le Sudbury français des années 1940 et 1950, en passant par le contexte de mutations culturelles, politiques et historiographiques des décennies d’après-guerre. L’étude s’étend au contenu des écrits de l’historien ainsi qu’à ses interventions dans les sphères publique et gouvernementale de l’Ontario et de la francophonie canadienne, notamment au regard de l’éducation postsecondaire. L’analyse fait ressortir les paramètres structurants de sa pensée et montre comment celle-ci opère dans l’espace propre au milieu minoritaire francoontarien. Elle fait apparaître l’historien comme l’une des principales figures énonciatrices d’une représentation identitaire axée sur une continuité référentielle avec la mémoire du Canada français historique.Cahiers Charlevoix 10: Études franco-ontariennes (Cahiers Charlevoix #10)
Par Michel Bock, Jean-Pierre Pichette, Simon Laflamme, Yves Frenette, Marcel Bénéteau. 2014

Par Maurice Beaudin, Denis Bourque, Dillon Black, Mirna Carranza, Dominique Charbonneau, Omar Chouinard, Yvan Comeau, Sarah Cooper, David Este, Julie Guillemot, Alicia Kalmanovitch, Jane Ku, Claudia Lahaie, Lynn Lavallee, André Leclerc, Bill Lee, Mishka Lysak, Judy MacDonald, Susan McGrath, Ken Moffatt, Melissa Myers, Elaine Moody, Katherine Occhiuto, André-Ann Parent, Heather Peters, Alison Phinney, Christa Sato, Majella Simard. 2019
Founded in a perspective that speaks to the diversity of contexts and processes used across Canada, this work is nevertheless…
firmly grounded in theory, offering an in-depth analysis geared toward advanced study in community practice. This depth is further strengthened by the diversity of topics represented in this collective work: community work in various regions of the country exploring issues of poverty and environmental activism; community work with immigrants and refugees, and with trans communities; feminist community organizing as well as organizing with persons with disabilities and with members of linguistic communities; and, finally, artsbased community work with the elderly. This book is published in English. - S’il reflète une diversité de contextes et de processus mis en oeuvre partout au Canada, cet ouvrage est toutefois fermement ancré dans la théorie, convenant aux études avancées en pratique communautaire. La diversité des sujets que propose cet ouvrage collectif est d’un intérêt particulier, qu’il s’agisse du travail communautaire dans diverses régions du pays explorant les questions de la pauvreté et de l’activisme environnemental; le travail communautaire auprès des immigrants et des réfugiés et avec les communautés de personnes trans; l’organisation de la communauté féministe ainsi que celle des personnes handicapées ou celle des membres de communautés linguistiques, et enfin, le travail communautaire axé sur les arts auprès des personnes âgées. Ce livre est publié en anglais.Translating Canada (Perspectives on Translation)
Par Luise Von Flotow, Reingard M. Nischik. 2007
In the last thirty years of the twentieth century, Canadian federal governments offered varying degrees of support for literary and…
other artistic endeavour. A corollary of this patronage of culture at home was an effort to make the resulting works available for audiences elsewhere in the world. Current developments in the study of translation and its influence as cultural transfer have made possible new assessments of such efforts to project a national image abroad. Translating Canada examines cultural materials exported by Canada in addition to those selected for acquisition by German publishers, theatres, and other culture brokers. It also considers the motivations of particular translators and the reception by German reviewers of works by a wide variety of Canadian writers -- novelists and poets, playwrights and children's authors, literary and social critics. Above all, the book maps for its readers a number of significant, though frequently unsuspected, roles that translation assumes in the intercultural negotiation of national images and values. The chapters in this collection will be of value to students, teachers, and scholars in a number of fields. Informed lay readers, too, will appreciate the authors’ insights into the different ways in which translation has contributed to German reception of Canadian books and culture.Colonial Systems of Control: Criminal Justice in Nigeria (Alternative Perspectives in Criminology)
Par Chris Affor, Uju Agomoh, Biko Agozino, Clever Akporherhe, Sylvester Monday Anagaba, O. Oko Elechi, Osa Eribo, Mechthild Nagel, Igho Odibo, Julia Sudbury, Chukwuma Ume, Unyierie Idem. 2008
A pioneering book on prisons in West Africa, Colonial Systems of Control: Criminal Justice in Nigeria is the first comprehensive…
presentation of life inside a West African prison. Chapters by prisoners inside Kirikiri maximum security prison in Lagos, Nigeria are published alongside chapters by scholars and activists. While prisoners document the daily realities and struggles of life inside a Nigerian prison, scholar and human rights activist Viviane Saleh-Hanna provides historical, political, and academic contexts and analyses of the penal system in Nigeria. The European penal models and institutions imported to Nigeria during colonialism are exposed as intrinsically incoherent with the community-based conflict-resolution principles of most African social structures and justice models. This book presents the realities of imprisonment in Nigeria while contextualizing the colonial legacies that have resulted in the inhumane brutalities that are endured on a daily basis. Keywords: Nigeria, West Africa, penal system, maximum-security prisonNationalisme et protection sociale
Par Daniel Béland, André Lecours. 2012
Les études sur le nationalisme et les politiques sociales se sont multipliées au cours des dernières années, mais peu d’entre…
elles ont abordé les interactions entre ces deux phénomènes. Alors que les chercheurs intéressés par la citoyenneté sociale font parfois référence à ces interactions, ils se penchent rarement sur la notion de nationalisme. Pour leur part, les spécialistes du nationalisme traitent rarement de protection sociale, préférant approfondir les questions de langue, de culture, d’ethnicité et de religion. Ainsi, ce livre explore, dans une perspective historique et comparative, la nature des liens entre nationalisme et protection sociale. Au plan théorique, l’analyse jette un éclairage neuf sur une question plus générale : la relation entre la formation de l’identité, la territorialité et la protection sociale. Bien que ce livre fasse référence à plusieurs pays, il scrute particulièrement les cas du Canada (Québec), du Royaume-Uni (Écosse) et de la Belgique (Flandre) – des États multiculturels où se trouvent d’importants mouvements nationalistes. L’ouvrage examine également les politiques sociales de ces pays en regard de celles d’autres États plus monolithiques comme les États-Unis et l’Allemagne, afin d’élargir la perspective comparative entre nationalisme et protection sociale.À la défense d'un idéal contesté: Le principe de mérite et la Commission de la fonction publique, 1908-2008 (Collection Gouvernance)
Par Luc Juillet, Ken Rasmussen. 2008
En 1908, afin de lutter contre le favoritisme qui mine autant l’efficacité de l’administration publique que la démocratie, le Parlement…
canadien décrète que les fonctionnaires de l’État seront dorénavant nommés selon le principe du mérite, en fonction de processus administrés par un organisme indépendant : la Commission de la fonction publique du Canada. Publié à l’occasion du centenaire de la commission, ce livre retrace l’histoire de ce principe et de cette institution, nés dans la controverse et, depuis, le sujet d’inlassables débats. Il permet de mieux comprendre la résilience exceptionnelle et la contribution unique de la commission à l’édification d’une administration publique indépendante, qui constitue un pilier important de la démocratie parlementaire canadienne. On y découvre également comment la commission a contribué, au fil des ans, à trouver un équilibre sans cesse renouvelé entre trois objectifs, reliés mais parfois contradictoires, associés à la dotation de l’administration publique d’une démocratie libérale : la neutralité politique de l’administration, l’égalité démocratique et l’efficacité en matière de gestion.Northrop Frye and Others: Twelve Writers Who Helped Shape His Thinking (Canadian Literature Collection)
Par Robert D. Denham. 2015
Eminent Northrop Frye scholar Robert D. Denham explores the connection between Frye and twelve writers who influenced his thinking but…
about whom he didn’t write anything expansive. Denham draws especially on Frye’s notebooks and other previously unpublished texts, now available in the Collected Works of Frye. Such varied thinkers as Aristotle, Lewis Carroll, Søren Kierkegaard, and Paul Tillich emerge as important figures in defining Frye’s cross-disciplinary interests. Eventually, the twelve “Others” of the title come to represent a space occupied by writers whose interests paralleled Frye’s and helped to establish his own critical universe.Memoriam: À La Mémoire De La Liberté (Essais et fiction)
Par Michel Picard. 2020
Philippe, jeune neurologue, consacre sa carrière à la maladie d’Alzheimer. Sa seule motivation : prouver l’innocence de son père, atteint…
d’Alzheimer, d’allégations de complot terroriste, qui a coûté la vie à sa mère. Son acharnement l’amène à transgresser certaines limites au grand désespoir de sa sœur aînée, qui cache aussi un important secret. Les avancées lentes et difficiles du chercheur prennent une tournure inédite à la rencontre du directeur d’une entreprise spécialisée en neuroscience. Encouragé par l’apport de la société, dont l’ajout d’un patient quelque peu mystérieux, Philippe fait finalement les percées qu’il espérait. Nonobstant, Philippe pousse encore plus ses techniques de recherche sur la mémoire et pour protéger la vie, déjà fragile, de son père. Réussira-t-il à trouver le véritable terroriste dont l’identité se cache quelque part dans les ténèbres cérébrales de ses deux patients ?

Par Diane Saint-Pierre and Monica Gattinger. 2020
How do Canadian provincial and territorial governments intervene in the cultural and artistic lives of their citizens? What changes and…
influences shaped the origin of these policies and their implementation? On what foundations were policies based, and on what foundations are they based today? How have governments defined the concepts of culture and of cultural policy over time? What are the objectives and outcomes of their policies, and what instruments do they use to pursue them? Answers to these questions are multiple and complex, partly as a result of the unique historical context of each province and territory, and partly because of the various objectives of successive governments, and the values and identities of their citizens. Cultural Policy: Origins, Evolution, and Implementation in Canada’s Provinces and Territories offers a comprehensive history of subnational cultural policies, including the institutionalization and instrumentalization of culture by provincial and territorial governments; government cultural objectives and outcomes; the role of departments, Crown corporations, other government organizations, and major public institutions in the cultural domain; and the development, dissemination, and impact of subnational cultural policy interventions.

Par Bruce Nesbitt. 2017
This collection presents all of Earle Birney’s known published and unpublished writings on Trotsky and Trotskyism for the very first time.…
It includes their correspondence as well as a selection of Birney’s letters and literary writings. Before he became one of Canada’s most influential and popular twentieth century poets, Earle Birney lived a double life. To his students and colleagues, he was an engaging university lecturer and scholar. But for seven years—from 1933 to 1940—the great Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky was the focus of his writing and much of his life. During his years as a Trotskyist in Canada, the United States and England, Birney wrote extensively about Trotsky, corresponded with him, organized Trotskyist cells in two countries, and recruited on behalf of Trotskyism; he also lectured on Trotsky and interviewed him over the course of several days. One of his two novels is based on some of these activities. The collection traces the origins of Trotsky’s mistrust of “the British” to his experiences in Canada; shows Birney’s influence on a major shift in Trotsky’s policy of “entrism” in British politics; includes the largest body of Trotskyist criticism in Canadian literary history; and demonstrates the need for a radical re-reading of Birney’s poetry in light of his Trotskyism.Double-Takes: Intersections between Canadian Literature and Film (Reappraisals: Canadian Writers)
Par David R. Jarraway. 2012
Over the past forty years, Canadian literature has found its way to the silver screen with increasing regularity. Beginning with…
the adaptation of Margaret Laurence’s A Jest of God to the Hollywood film Rachel, Rachel in 1966, Canadian writing would appear to have found a doubly successful life for itself at the movies: from the critically acclaimed Kamouraska and The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz in the 1970s through to the award-winning Love and Human Remains and The English Patient in the 1990s. With the more recent notoriety surrounding the Oscar-nominated Away from Her, and the screen appearances of The Stone Angel and Fugitive Pieces, this seems like an appropriate time for a collection of essays to reflect on the intersection between literary publication in Canada, and its various screen transformations. This volume discusses and debates several double-edged issues: the extent to which the literary artefact extends its artfulness to the film artefact, the degree to which literary communities stand to gain (or lose) in contact with film communities, and perhaps most of all, the measure by which a viable relation between fiction and film can be said to exist in Canada, and where that double-life precisely manifests itself, if at all. - This book is published in English.Les Belles Étrangères: Canadians in Paris (Perspectives on Translation)
Par Jane Koustas. 2008
While translation history in Canada is well documented, the history of the translation of Canadian fiction outside the nation remains…
obscure. Les Belles Étrangères examines the translation of Canadian English-language fiction in France. This book considers the history of this practice, the reasons for the move away from Quebec translators as well as the process and perils involved in this detour.Within a theoretical framework and drawing on primary sources, this study considers the historical, theoretical, and concrete aspects of this practice through the study of the translations of authors such as Robertson Davies, Carol Shields, Margaret Atwood, Michael Ondaatje, Ann-Marie MacDonald, and Alistair MacLeod.The book also includes a comprehensive bibliography of English-language novels, poetry, and plays published and translated in France over the past 240 years.Flora Lyndsay is Susanna Moodie’s prequel to Roughing it in the Bush and Life in the Clearings. Though Moodie fictionalizes…
herself in the context of this novel, Flora Lyndsay remains a close personalized record of her family’s experiences in planning their emigration and crossing the Atlantic. Despite the limited critical attention it receives, Flora Lyndsay reveals Moodie’s style, her sense of form, and her distinctive approach to writing female autobiography. This edition, complete with a wide corpus of endnotes, an extensive list of emendations, and a critical introduction, helps address this oversight and gives a closer look at the iconic phenomenon that is Susanna Moodie.The Ivory Thought: Essays on Al Purdy (Reappraisals: Canadian Writers)
Par Gerald Lynch, Shoshannah Ganz, Josephene T. M. Kealey. 2008
If one poet can be said to be the Canadian poet, that poet is Al Purdy (1918–2000). Numerous eminent scholars…
and writers have attested to this pre-eminent status. George Bowering described him as “the world’s most Canadian poet” (1970), while Sam Solecki titled his book-length study of Purdy The Last Canadian Poet (1999). In The Ivory Thought: Essays on Al Purdy, a group of seventeen scholars, critics, writers, and educators appraise and reappraise Purdy’s contribution to English literature. They explore Purdy’s continuing significance to contemporary writers; the life he dedicated to literature and the persona he crafted; the influences acting on his development as a poet; the ongoing scholarly projects of editing and publishing his writing; particular poems and individual books of poetry, fiction, and non-fiction; and the larger themes in his work, such as the Canadian North and the predominant importance of place. In addition, two contemporary poets pay tribute with original poems.Eight Men Speak: A Play by Oscar Ryan et al. (Canadian Literature Collection)
Par Oscar Ryan, Edward Cecil-Smith, Frank Love, Mildred Goldberg. 2012
This volume comprises a reprinting and gloss of the original text of the 1933 Communist play Eight Men Speak. The…
play was banned by the Toronto police after its first performance, banned by the Winnipeg police shortly thereafter and subsequently banned by the Canadian Post Office. The play can be considered as one stage–the published text–of a meta-text that culminated in 1934 at Maple Leaf Gardens when the (then illegal) Communist Party of Canada celebrated the release of its leader, Tim Buck, from prison. Eight Men Speak had been written and staged on behalf of the campaign to free Buck by the Canadian Labour Defence League, the public advocacy group of the CPC. In its theatrical techniques, incorporating avant-garde expressionist staging, mass chant, agitprop and modernist dramaturgy, Eight Men Speak exemplified the vanguardist aesthetics of the Communist left in the years before the Popular Front. It is the first instance of the collective theatrical techniques that would become widespread in subsequent decades and formative in the development of modern Canadian drama. These include a decentred narrative, collaborative authorship and a refusal of dramaturgical linearity in favour of theatricalist demonstration. As such it is one of the most significant Canadian plays of the first half of the century, and, on the evidence of the surviving photograph of the mise-en-scene, one of the earliest examples of modernist staging in Canada. - This book is published in English.The Routledge International Handbook on Decolonizing Justice (Routledge International Handbooks)

The Routledge International Handbook on Decolonizing Justice focuses on the growing worldwide movement aimed at decolonizing state policies and practices,…
and various disciplinary knowledges including criminology, social work and law. The collection of original chapters brings together cutting-edge, politically engaged work from a diverse group of writers who take as a starting point an analysis founded in a decolonizing, decolonial and/or Indigenous standpoint. Centering the perspectives of Black, First Nations and other racialized and minoritized peoples, the book makes an internationally significant contribution to the literature.The chapters include analyses of specific decolonization policies and interventions instigated by communities to enhance jurisdictional self-determination; theoretical approaches to decolonization; the importance of research and research ethics as a key foundation of the decolonization process; crucial contemporary issues including deaths in custody, state crime, reparations, and transitional justice; and critical analysis of key institutions of control, including police, courts, corrections, child protection systems and other forms of carcerality.The handbook is divided into five sections which reflect the breadth of the decolonizing literature:• Why decolonization? From the personal to the global• State terror and violence• Abolishing the carceral• Transforming and decolonizing justice• Disrupting epistemic violenceThis book offers a comprehensive and timely resource for activists, students, academics, and those with an interest in Indigenous studies, decolonial and post-colonial studies, criminal legal institutions and criminology. It provides critical commentary and analyses of the major issues for enhancing social justice internationally.The Open Access version of this book, available at www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license.Rechtsmedizin: Befunderhebung, Rekonstruktion, Begutachtung

Par James Windell, Nicole Bain. 2016
Designed as a supplemental text for juvenile delinquency and juvenile justice courses, this workbook fills a void in current textbooks.…
It provides a hands-on experience that helps students understand the kinds of court hearings that take place in juvenile and family courts. It presents information about actual cases and prompts students to make decisions and design court orders for typical juvenile court cases. It also provides a unique opportunity for students to experience what it is like to face decisions in the juvenile court system.
