  • An Examination of the History of Catholic Education in British Columbia
    CCHA, Historical Studies, 65 (1999), 71-91 Challenging the Status Quo: An Examination of the History of Catholic Education in British Columbia Vincent J. MCNALLY British Columbia is unique among Canadian provinces in that it has always been and remains the most unchurched region of the country, a fact that has greatly impacted the development of Catholic education there. Even before 1871, when British Columbia entered Confederation, it had rejected the notion of establishing a separate school system. Nevertheless, church leaders, especially Catholics and Anglicans, would continue to fight to obtain such a system, arguing that they were only asking for something that was then the norm in most of the country. In 1978 provincial funding, which now covers about seventy per cent of costs, was made available to all private schools, including religion-based institutions. Because of this, such schools now educate twice the number they did formerly or at present eight per cent of all students in the province. Yet Victoria, in providing public monies, did not establish a separate schools system, for the overwhelming majority of British Columbians are as strongly opposed as ever to that idea. Therefore, such funding could end as quickly as it began.1 Education in the far west had quite modest beginnings. Church- sponsored schools were started in 1849 when the Oblate, Honoré Lempfrit, made the first attempt to establish a Catholic school in Victoria. About then the Hudson Bay Company’s Anglican chaplain, Robert Staines, began a similar enterprise. Class played an important role 1 Jean Barman, The West Beyond the West: A History of British Columbia (Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1994), 312-21, 335; Census of Canada, 1991, 93-319; Harro Van Brummelen, “Religiously-based Schooling in British Columbia: an Overview of the Research,” Journal of the Canadian Church Historical Society: British Columbia: Special Issue, Vol.

  • Recent Publications on 18Th-Century Materials in Contemporary Library and Manuscript Collections (1985–2016)
    Recent Publications on 18th-Century Materials in Contemporary Library and Manuscript Collections (1985–2016) The following bibliography surveys publications from 1985–2016 concerning materials from the long eighteenth century (1660–1820) held by libraries and archives in Europe and the Americas. It is most inclusive for the years 1989–2014, in consequence of my compiling studies from those years for Section 1—"Printing and Bibliographical Studies"—of The Eighteenth Century: A Current Bibliography. A 2015 revision corrected entries and added 80 percent more entries to the 2008 list, expanding the bibliography from 82 to 152 pages in typescript. In February 2016 I expanded the list to 161 pp., and now in May 2017 expand it to 178 pp. Accounts of particular collections of children's literature and of rare bindings are also noted in my BibSite bibliographies of children's literature and of studies of the book as a physical object. Also, the bibliography on 18th-century book culture posted at BibSite, although focused on where books were in the 18th century, does contain studies indicating where materials are to be found today (some of the same publications appear in both bibliographies). Publications guiding scholars to where books are located (such as the ESTC) or guiding them to information about collections (such as surveys of exhibition catalogues) are placed in this present bibliography. Many research libraries have published periodicals that recorded new acquisitions. The best regular surveys that I have seen were in the Huntington Library Quarterly, Princeton University Library Chronicle, Revue de la BNF, and the Yale University Library Gazette—one wishes the accessions section of the Bodleian Library Record provided such a checklist, but it does carry notes on acquisitions.

  • Archbishop Seghers Pacific Coast Missionary by the MOST REV
    CCHA, Report, 18 (1951), 15-23 Archbishop Seghers Pacific Coast Missionary by THE MOST REV. JAMES M. HILL, D.D. Bishop of Victoria. Among the great names that shine with particular brilliance in the heroic story of the missionary conquest of the Pacific Coast stands preeminent that of Charles John Seghers, pioneering bishop of the West Coast of Canada, Apostle of Alaska and second Archbishop of Oregon. That one missionary in so brief a span of life, plagued at all times by delicate health could have accomplished so much for God and souls, under the unparalleled conditions that prevailed in his time in the vast area in which he worked, will always remain a source of wonder and admiration to all who read the stirring saga of his missionary activities and successes. While the scope of a paper such as this, treating as it does in brief outline the many and varied responsibilities of his career as campaigner for Christ and the extension of His Kingdom, does not permit dwelling at any length upon the intimate details of the saintly Archbishop’s life, yet a quick summation of the motivating forces behind his tireless and fruitful apostolate is necessary to understand and appreciate the real stature of this great missionary. Archbishop Seghers was a model of all Christian virtues to such a degree that these, in him, through continuous practice, can be truly called heroic. From the earliest days of his priestly life, he must have had ever in his heart and before his eyes the precept of the Apostle to Titus: “In all things, show thyself an example of good works.” His reputation for humility, piety, charity and learning followed him wherever he went; the motivating, dynamizing virtues that vivified and shaped his every effort and action were his zeal and his detachment; the one, an all- consuming love for God, His Church and souls; the other, a complete self- effacement and disassociation from worldly attachments.

A. Fairbanks, Alaska August, 2013 v ABSTRACT Presbyterian missionary Sheldon Jackson is a celebrated figure in Alaska history. He is known predominantly for his efforts facilitating the establishment of public schools for Alaska Native people during the late nineteenth century. Jackson’s methods have been historically overlooked as being reform-minded initiatives characteristic of Indian assimilation. As a result, historians have concluded that Jackson was a humanitarian with benevolent intentions. Unfortunately, such assessments ignore Jackson’s educational platform, which was built upon fictitious slander against indigenous people and the manipulation of Christian women. In addition to speaking tours, Jackson published many editorials, articles, and books alleging that Alaska Native people were barbarous monsters. The propaganda Jackson employed in Alaska was no different from the propaganda he used against Mormons and Native Americans. However, Jackson was maligned for his strategy in the continental United States, whereas in Alaska he was celebrated as a reformer and an authority figure due to ignorance about the northern territory.

Roeber Professor of Early Modern History and Religious Studies Matthew Restall Professor of Colonial Latin American History, Anthropology and Women‘s Studies. Linda J. Ivanits Associate Professor of Russian and Comparative Literature Sally McMurry Professor of American History Head of the Department of History and Religious Studies *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Alaskan religious and cultural landscape. The history of Alaskan Christian missions is unique: Alaska developed as an arbitrary cultural/geographical construct and also one of the few regions where representatives of all three main historical branches of Christianity – Catholic, Orthodox, and Protestant – proselytized simultaneously. Alaska is viewed as a special landscape where dynamic cross-cultural interactions and multi-denominational – in the case of Protestant – missionary ventures took place.
