  • TREVOR CAROLAN / Dorothy Livesay in North Vancouver
    TREVOR CAROLAN / Dorothy Livesay in North Vancouver Ten years ago, as a District of North Vancouver Councillor, I proposed to my colleagues in the nearby City of North Vancouver the idea of creating a memorial plaque in honour of Dorothy Livesay. An important twentieth century Canadian poet and social activist, Livesay lived in the city on and off for more than twenty years with her husband, fellow socialist Duncan McNair. They lived in several homes within view of the inner harbour: at Cumberland Crescent, then at 848-6th Street about a block from Sutherland High School, and later on toney Grand Boulevard. Livesay wrote some of her best work here­ making it an appropriate place to commemorate not only a fine poet, but also a champion of women's rights and family planning before either became fashionable. The idea of a memorial marker-stone failed to gain traction with the politicians of the day; it's an idea that's still out there for commissioning. In her memoir Journ ey with My Selves, Livesay says that she originally arrived in BC wanting to find her way to the San Francisco literary scene. In fact, she came to Vancouver to work as an editor for a communist labour journal. From Vancouver she hoped to travel further south to join the Depression-era's well-established leftist arts community concentrated in the San Francisco Bay Area. This was IWW territory and numerous publications there served the One Big Union labour ideal, which appealed to her political interests. The city also enjoyed a long liberal tradition in its journalism and politics.

  • "I "In Miriam Waddington's Poetry
    TRANSITIONAL SPACES: CONSTRUCTIONS OF THE MODERNIST “I” IN MIRIAM WADDINGTON’S POETRY Esther Sánchez-Pardo González Universidad Complutense de Madrid ABSTRACT In her first books of poetry (Green World, The Second Silence), Miriam Waddington explores female identity and subjectivity from the perspective of what she refers to in her poem “The Bond” as the “Jewish me.” In these two books, one finds “the credibility of colloquial speech as an alternative to impersonal modernism” (Arnason). My paper is an attempt to approach the construction of the lyric “I” exploring the dialectic between inner and outer world —a transitional space where the subject engages in a process of transformation. In Waddington’s poetry the modernist lyric was a central means to explore a rupture with the old world (colonial and patriarchal) in her own textual terms. KEY WORDS: Miriam Waddington, Modernism, lyric poetry, jewishness, women. RESUMEN En sus dos primeros poemarios (Green World, The Second Silence), Miriam Waddington explora la identidad y subjetividad femeninas desde la perspectiva de lo que en su poema 169 “The Bond” llama el “yo judío”. En estos dos volúmenes encontramos “la credibilidad de la lengua coloquial como alternativa a la impersonalidad modernista” (Arnason). Este ensayo es una aproximación a la construcción del “yo” lírico en este período, que explora la dialéc- tica entre mundo interior y exterior —un espacio transicional donde el sujeto experimenta un proceso de transformación. En la poesía de Waddington, la lírica modernista fue sin duda el medio privilegiado para explorar la ruptura con el viejo mundo (colonial y patriar- cal) de acuerdo a su singular manera de entender el texto poético.

  • 2014 Newsletter Draft
    DECEMBER 2014 ISSUE NO.8 Earth & Environmental Sciences A letter from the chair.... Dear friends, students, and alumni of Earth and Environmental Sciences, I wish you the warmest of holiday greetings. The EES department continues to be a vibrant academic community of highly talented faculty, staff, and students...albeit with change. Professor Bruce Hargreaves is set to retire after 38 years at Lehigh. We all wish Bruce and his family good health and much success for years to come. EES achievements in 2014 made it difficult to select what to highlight in the following pages. Noteworthy were the election of Professor Ken Kodama as a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the awarding of the Christian and Mary Linback award for distinguished teaching to Professor Frank Pazzaglia, and the selection of EES graduate student Helen Malenda as a National Science Foundation Fellow. The newsletter also gives me an opportunity to acknowledge the generosity of our alumni who have given their time to share their career experiences with our students or their wealth to EES to embellish the educational experiences we can provide. For many earth and environmental scientists, a field setting always stirs emotions, provides awe and wonder, and inspires our curiosity. The field setting also provides a strong social learning environment where professor-student and peer-to-peer relations flourish. Inspirational field trips and summer field camp provides students with the opportunity to discover the breadth and scale of the many processes that have shaped the Earth. Thanks to the generosity of the Chevron Corporation and Chevron-EES alumni our field programs got a boost in 2014.

  • Miriam Waddington, the Collected Poems of Miriam Waddington. Edit- Ed with an Introduction by Ruth Panofsky
    Canadian Jewish Studies / Études juives canadiennes, vol. 23, 2015 165 Miriam Waddington, The Collected Poems of Miriam Waddington. Edit- ed with an introduction by Ruth Panofsky. 2 Volumes. (Ottawa: Univer- sity of Ottawa Press, 2014), 1109 pages. These two beautifully published and scrupulously edited volumes represent the first time that all of Miriam Waddington’s verse has been collected in one edition. Wad- dington was one of the major Canadian poets of the middle decades of the twentieth century. She wrote short stories and essays in addition to poetry, but it is as a poet that she made her mark. She was remarkably prolific, publishing 14 books of verse during her lifetime, not to mention numerous uncollected poems in a variety of journals. In these two volumes, published under the aegis of Editions of Modernism in Canada and edited with an introduction by Ruth Panofsky, Professor of English at Ryerson University, we finally get a comprehensive critical and scholarly edition of all of Waddington’s published poetry, as well as a selection of her uncollected and unpublished poems. The second volume also contains examples of Waddington’s translations from Yiddish, German and Russian into English, a welcome inclusion, since these translations testify not only to Waddington’s skill as a poet, but also as a translator, and they provide a testament to the wide scope of her literary interests. In her excellent introduction, Panofsky contends that Waddington’s career as a modernist has not been sufficiently studied. Despite, or perhaps because of, being a contemporary of Louis Dudek, A. M.

    IHE HOHEMaKBRg myths built around the idea of the prairie as a hostile environment whose flatness, emptiness and immensity have made psycological adaptation impossible. In two witty lines the poet dispels the mist of this negative vision of the prairie saying that: The chief difference in the land is that there is more of it. (*5) Then, as if to prove that the prairie is neither empty nor frightening she gives us slices of family life that sound reassuringly familiar to anyone acquainted with the quiet existence of country people. In Brewster's poems, uncles, aunts, grandparents, relatives and friends meet in their warm and cosy homes to talk about the weather, the interests of the community or to comply dutifully with the social task of mourning one of their elders. However, to take Elizabeth Brewster's poems literally is not to do them justice. Beneath the simplicity of form and content of her pieces is a world full of larger -182- THE HGMEMRKEBS significances that the analysis of one of her prairie poems will help to unveil. The poem is entitled "The Future of Poetry in Canada" and is, at its most immediate level, a chronicle of prairie life in a small community. Elizabeth Brewster takes us to Goodridge, Alberta 'where electricity arrived in 1953/ the telephone in 1963', and introduces us to its people for whom the most important social activities are 'the golden wedding anniversaries of the residents' and 'the farewell parties', all of them 'well attended in spite of the blizzards' . At these gatherings, through which Brewster highlights the sense of community as a therapy against loneliness, people talk about the weather and 'remember the time they threshed in the snow/ and the winter the temperature fell to seventy below'.
