ISBN 9-78077-35313-69, Hardback, $75, £56. Robynne Rogers Healey has written one of the most useful and important studies of the evolution of a Quaker community ever published. Several historians, myself included, have ventured broad overviews of how and why Quakerism changed in the nineteenth century. But now we have a careful, incisive analysis of those changes at the local level. Healey's subject is Yonge Street Monthly Meeting in Ontario. Shortly after 1800, Friends from Vermont and Pennsylvania took advantage of generous land grants to settle north of what would become Toronto.

  • David Willson's "Impressions of the Mind" and "Letters to the Jews"
    DAVID WILLSON'S "IMPRESSIONS OF THE MIND" AND "LETTERS TO THE JEWS" Thomas M. F. Gerry Love hath no beginning nor ever will have an end. Love is the revealed will of God, and the saviour of nations. Love is the con- quering sword of God, the peace-maker of the world, the blessed of God. She bears his own image, and is forever. She ariseth in the east as the light of day. She is the bride of man, and the bride- groom of the soul. She binds together, and none can part those whom she hath joined together. She hath connected limb to limb, and joint to joint, since ever her name was known to the human mind. She is ever in the presence of God. She conceals her mind from those that disbelieve her name, till sorrow shall enable them to embrace her hand with a smile. She is the queen of the Deity ; as male and female, she is one with God.1 RLEADIN, G THESE WORDS of David Willson's, written and published in Upper Canada in 1835, one may be surprised, and perhaps mysti- fied, but certainly one must acknowledge the presence of an intriguingly unique voice from a Canadian pioneer settlement. Willson was a prolific writer of religious prose, poems, and hymns, whose works create a new dimension in our understand- ing of the early life and literature of Canada. Overshadowed in history by his friends William Lyon Mackenzie and Robert Baldwin, and actively ignored, even scorned, by church and state officers since John Strachan, Egerton Ryerson, and Stephen Grellet, Willson's endeavours, including the lovely Temple of Peace at Sharon, Ontario, and his musical achievements, are beginning to receive their rightful recognition.

  • Dissenting Traditions in Nineteenth-Century Central Canada Communities Apart
    DISSENTING TRADITIONS IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY CENTRAL CANADA COMMUNITIES APART: DISSENTING TRADITIONS IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY CENTRAL CANADA By LOUISE A MUSSIO, M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University o Copyright by Louise Mussio, September 2000 ii DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2000) McMaster University (History) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Communities Apart: Dissenting Traditions in Nineteenth­ Century Central Canada AUTHOR Louise Mussio M.A. (McMaster UniverSIty) SUPERVISOR: Professor Michael Gauvreau NUMBER OF PAGES. 352 III Abstract "Communities Apart: Dissenting Traditions in Nineteenth-Century Central Canada" studies the relationship between five Dissenting Protestant groups - the Quakers, Children of Peace, Disciples of Christ, Millerites and the Holiness Movement Church - and several key political and social transfonnations in nineteenth-century central Canadian life. It challenges SD Clark's argument that Dissenting "sects" were otherworldly and apolitical, while at the same time revising the more modern Canadian historiographical trend to confine discussions of Protestantism's cultural impact to so-called "mainline" denominations. In the process, it discovers that Dissenting denominations were important participants in the societal dialogue regarding various aspects of central Canadian life. In the first half of the nineteenth century, the Dissenters considered in this thesis challenged the compact between Church and state which was entrenched in the Constitution of 1791, and presented alternatives to the culture of hierarchy and deference, rooted in a common core of democratic, Christian values. These included a strident anti­ formalism, in addition to a staunch defense of liberty of conscience, the priesthood of all believers and sola scriptura, or alternatively, a mystical sense of God's active direction in the life of the believer.

The Toronto Normal School was instituted by the late Dr. Ryerson for the purpose of training teachers for Public School work. In fact, it was an integral part of the system of education which he recommended after having visited the schools of Europe and the United States, under the direction of the Government, with a view to legisla tion of a comprehensive character for the schools of Ontario. An experience of fifty years in the development of this system (the Normal School included) has clearly shown the wisdom of his conclusions and its adaptation to the social and municipal institutions of the country. There was no feature of the system of education founded by Dr. Ryerson which had a more important bearing upon Elementary and High School education than the establishment of the Toronto Normal School. For many years it was the only educational seminary at which the training, qualifying a man or woman for the profession of teaching could be obtained. It was always a Normal School, even in the modern sense of the term, for every subject which the student was expected to master was also considered in a pedagogical sense.
