  • Colonial Failure in the Anglo-North Atlantic World, 1570-1640 (2015)
    FINDLEY JR, JAMES WALTER, Ph.D. “Went to Build Castles in the Aire:” Colonial Failure in the Anglo-North Atlantic World, 1570-1640 (2015). Directed by Dr. Phyllis Whitman Hunter. 266pp. This study examines the early phases of Anglo-North American colonization from 1570 to 1640 by employing the lenses of imagination and failure. I argue that English colonial projectors envisioned a North America that existed primarily in their minds – a place filled with marketable and profitable commodities waiting to be extracted. I historicize the imagined profitability of commodities like fish and sassafras, and use the extreme example of the unicorn to highlight and contextualize the unlimited potential that America held in the minds of early-modern projectors. My research on colonial failure encompasses the failure of not just physical colonies, but also the failure to pursue profitable commodities, and the failure to develop successful theories of colonization. After roughly seventy years of experience in America, Anglo projectors reevaluated their modus operandi by studying and drawing lessons from past colonial failure. Projectors learned slowly and marginally, and in some cases, did not seem to learn anything at all. However, the lack of learning the right lessons did not diminish the importance of this early phase of colonization. By exploring the variety, impracticability, and failure of plans for early settlement, this study investigates the persistent search for usefulness of America by Anglo colonial projectors in the face of high rate of

The Reverend Michael D. Jones, c.1860 The idea of establishing a specifically 'Welsh' community in another part of the world emerged long before the mid-nineteenth century. As early as the 1610s, William Vaughan (1577-1641) sought to establish a Welsh community called 'Cambriol' in Newfoundland and, over the following two centuries, several individuals had similar aspirations.

  • Limestone Resources of Newfoundland and Labrador

JOHN’S, NEWFOUNDLAND 1974 CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE TABLE OF CONTENTS Accompanying maps Map 1, Map 2 and Map 3 can be viewed by clicking on each map number PUBLISHER'S NOTE Report 74-2, Limestone Resources of Newfoundland and Labrador by John R. DeGrace, being the only comprehensive study of the limestone resources of the province to date, is being reissued to provide the nec- essary background information to facilitate limestone exploration activities in the province. However, the format of the reissue has been changed from the original to conform to the format presently used by the Geological Survey. The report is being reprinted in its entirety without any updating or corrections whatso- ever; and is being made available only digitally, including on the web. Readers should be aware that later reviews of the geology of the areas covered in Report 74-2 are those by Hibbard (1983), King (1988), Knight and James (1988), Smyth and Schillereff (1982), Stouge (1983a,b), and Knight (1983). Details concerning the economic potential of the limestone resources themselves, also have been updated in the interim. The Newfoundland Department of Mines and Energy began a reassess- ment of Newfoundland marble resources in 1985, the objective of which was to determine their industrial potential as filler and dimension stone. Significant reassessments of some of the old deposits were made and new deposits of high-purity, white marble were delineated by diamond drilling.

H.G. JONES INRS-Eau, CP 7500. Ste-Foy, Quebec, Canada, G1V 4C7 J.W. POMEROY NHN, 11 Innovation Boulevard, Saskatoon, Saskatchewn, Canada, S7N 3H5 The study and study objectives: The study examines the history of three Welsh colonies founded during the coldest period of the Little Ice Age (1580-1680; IPCC, 1980) i.e. at Cambriol, 1617, Newfoundland (47" N); at Swanzey, 1662. Massachusetts (45" N); and at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. 1682 (a small collection of colonies, 40" N). The settlement attempt at Cambriol (Williams, 1924) turned into a disaster and was abandoned after 20 years without leaving any trace. Swanzey and Philadelphia survived and prospered (Williams, 1945). The objective of the case study was to elucidate to what extent the climate played a role in the demise of Cambriol and whether or not other social and local environmental factors increased the risk of failure compared to Swanzey and Philadelphia. Methodology and data acquisition:There are no quantitative records to permit the assessment of temperature at the time that the three colonies were settIed. The mercury thermometer was invented by Fahrenheit in 1714 and continuous measurements of temperature only commenced in North America during the mid 18th century. The definition of 'cold' or 'colder' was subjective and based on previous experiences of winters in Wales and other European counmes. However. the colonists did keep records of snow cover depth and duration to some degree.

L. 1 , 1 HIRANO, PATRICIA BARCLAY Reviews BY MARGARET LAU R E N C E, P AU L WEST, TONY EMERY, ROBERT HARLOW, WILLIAM TO YE , ROBERT J. GREGG Special Bibliography Supplement THEATRE IN CANADA A QUARTERLY OF CRITICISM AND R6VI6W CAUTIOUS INEVITABILITY PROFESSOR DESMOND PACEY has rendered many services to writing in Canada, and particularly as the only considerable historian of literature in English-speaking Canada. To these we can now add another service, less sub- stantial, but no less satisfying in its own way — that of persuading the Times Literary Supplement to admit, after having implicitly denied it twelve years ago, that something which can be called a "Canadian literature" has at last come into being. The new edition of Professor Pacey's Creative Writing in Canada — recently released in England — was the subject not merely of a review, but of an editorial in the TLS which has some salutary things to say about both the character of Canadians and that character's relation to their literary productions. No one need mistake a Canadian for other than what he is; and if "character" is given a more particular interpretation, the Canadian is as resolute as any other national in asserting his identity, in the face of considerable odds. England on the one hand and the United States on the other are set to lure him off his inde- pendent track. But whether it is that the caution needed for such a difficult navi- gation spoils with self-consciousness the free expression of his identity, or that his character in its realization on a national scale does not insist upon being imagi- natively interpreted, it is certain that he has fallen behind other Commonwealth countries in arousing curiosity abroad and establishing a sympathetic image.
