Roger and me SARAH HAMPSON FROM MONDAY'S GLOBE AND MAIL JULY 16, 2007 AT 9:13 AM EDT Richard Florida, the renowned American scholar and best-selling author, had his eye on working in Toronto for several years. His work on the identification of "the creative class" launched an intellectual revolution on understanding the economic engines of the world's top-tier cities. Last week, it was announced that he has been appointed academic director of the newly established Centre for Jurisdictional Advantage and Prosperity at the University of Toronto's Rotman School of Management. "This is really about Roger Martin. There is no other person like him in academic life," Prof. Florida, 49, says of the dean of Rotman. "He's the real strategic thinker on this." The Centre for Jurisdictional Advantage and Prosperity is Mr. Martin's brainchild. The research institution will take a holistic and integrative approach to the study of how jurisdictions, including provinces and areas that encompass cities across national borders, become magnets for companies and for the people who provide the diverse talent needed for prosperity. "I made a very pragmatic decision to go to the best place to do my research," Prof. Florida says, adding that what distinguishes the research centre is its placement within a business school. "Most of the places that have studied the idea of place have been in urban planning programs. I am an urban planner, so I respect it. I have been in public policy schools.

  • Thomas Merton and Leonard Cohen
    THOMAS MERTON AND LEONARD COHEN: SOUL-BROTHERS AND SPIRITUAL GUIDES Donald Grayston O Canada In 2009, it fell to me to give the presidential address to the International Thomas Merton Society’s general meeting in Rochester, NY (Grayston 2009). As the first Canadian president of the ITMS, I wanted to strike a Canadian note, if I could. That decided, the next question was how. I got my first clue when I read a review by Pico Iyer of Leonard Cohen’s then-recent book of poetry, Book of Longing (Iyer, 2008). In that review he makes a brief reference to Thomas Merton as the poet Cohen most resembles. So far so good, then: Leonard Cohen, a Canadian poet, visual artist and singer- songwriter, with a resemblance to Thomas Merton. 1 Then the next challenge: how to frame that resemblance. Happily, I ran across an earlier article in our national paper of record, The Globe and Mail , by Sarah Hampson, containing the inside–page heading, “No longer a monk, but monastic in his way” (Hampson, May 2007). And if Cohen was monastic in his own way, who else was monastic in his own way if not Thomas Merton? Will there ever again be a monk like him? We can’t know that for certain, of course; but the chances, in my view, are unlikely in the extreme, not only because of Merton’s gifts and temperament, but because of the particular historical moment in which he exercised his gifts. So in my address I told a story about a Christian and a Jew—a Jew from Montréal with a strong affinity for Catholicism (Ryan 2009), and a Christian in rural Kentucky who once commented to Abraham Joshua Heschel that he often felt that he wanted to be “a true Jew under [his] Catholic skin ….” (Merton 1985, 434–35).

  • "Landmarks" Landon Mackenzie by Sarah Hampson, Article in Elm Street, April 1998
    "Landmarks" Landon Mackenzie by Sarah Hampson, article in Elm Street, April 1998 I first met painter Landon Mackenzie in the fall of 1985, in her Toronto studio, a few months before she moved to Vancouver to teach at the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design. At 30, she looked fresh as a country girl. In one corner of her large studio, a newborn (her second child) was asleep. In 1981, Mackenzie had made a stunning debut by winning the top prize in the prestigious Quebec Biennale of Painting for a series on the Canadian North entitled Lost river -dark, moody landscapes inhabited by imaginary wolf-caribou creatures. The Art Gallery of Ontario had recently bought a second one of her paintings. Perched on a stool, Mackenzie talked animatedly about the paintings that she had completed while pregnant "gestational" painting she called some of them because they had big, womb-like shapes in them. She laughed a lot, and when she spoke she moved her hands in the air. I am three years younger than Mackenzie, and I had just had my first child when we met. I was impressed that motherhood seemed to invigorate rather Than tire her - it had awakened powerful emotions that she could pour into her art, "Landon is working within the great tradition of landscape painting." says Matthew Teitelbaum, chief curator at the Art Gallery of Ontario, "but she invests it with personal narrative which makes it distinctive." She is clearly fascinated by the physical beauty of the land, the colours and the terrain. But there is much more: The Lost River series shows her deep concern for the disturbance of the land's natural ecology, for the real and troubling story beneath the much-mythologized image of the North.

  • 'Monastic in His [Own] Way': Thomas Merton and Leonard Cohen
    “‘Monastic in his [own] way’: Thomas Merton and Leonard Cohen” Presidential Address / International Thomas Merton Society Eleventh General Meeting and Conference Nazareth College, Rochester, NY / June 11, 2009 By Donald Grayston* Friends, members of the ITMS, visitors from near and far: let me offer my own word of welcome to you as we come to this rich feast of encounter and reflection, the 11 th general meeting and conference of the International Thomas Merton Society. In thinking of what I wanted to say tonight, I was guided by two considerations. First, I wanted to say something that would relate to our theme, “Bearing Witness to the Light,” with its focus on interfaith understanding and dialogue. 1 Second, it occurred to me that as the first Canadian to be president of the ITMS I ought to give you some of what in Canada we call “Canadian content.” This phrase refers to the requirement of *Donald Grayston, a priest of the Anglican diocese of New Westminster, British Columbia, was president of the ITMS in 2007-09. He retired in 2004 after 15 years of teaching Religious Studies at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, for the last three years of which he was director of the Institute for the Humanities. He is also past president of the Thomas Merton Society of Canada, current (2009-2011) program chair of the ITMS, and chair of the planning team of Building Bridges Vancouver, a public education program in Vancouver concerned with the Israeli-Palestinian divide. the Canadian Radio and Television Commission that a certain percentage of songs played and television shows broadcast in Canada must be produced in Canada, lest we find our cultural distinctives washed away by the tsunami of creativity coming from our great neighbor to the south.
