Good Friday on College Street: Urban Space and Changing Italian Identity GOOD FRIDAY ON COLLEGE STREET: URBAN SPACE AND CHANGING ITALIAN IDENTITY M. VIENNA PAOLANTONIO A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN HISTORY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO September 2020 © M. Vienna Paolantonio, 2020 Abstract This dissertation examines the relationship between urban space and minority ethnic identity. It makes extensive use of oral testimony and a variety of archival documents including personal correspondence and photographs, parish records, and newspaper records to reveal the way postwar Italian immigrants utilized traditional religious practices to nurture and express a feeling of belonging in the Toronto neighbourhood known as Little Italy. The Processione di Cristo Morto (The Procession of the Dead Christ or PCM) on Good Friday was part of a larger approach to religious devotion which included public processions for patron saints embedded in the premigration lives of southern Italian immigrants who settled in the College Street neighbourhood. Immigrants brought with them the assumption that public space was an appropriate location for nurturing and expanding dense networks of information and support connected to leisure activity and devotional practices. Although use of neighbourhood space for leisure appears to be a gendered practice among Italian immigrants, during the PCM women occupied and directed the use of public space on a scale equal to men. I argue the PCM was unique in terms of its appeal to Italian immigrants from all regions of Italy and became an important symbolic vehicle for publicly expressing the evolution of personal and communal Italian identity from Italian “immigrant” to Italian-Canadian “ethnic” over two generations. Urban space is an appropriate category of analysis for understanding the ways immigrant/ethnic minorities develop feelings of belonging in a new city. Sidewalks, roads, neighbourhood businesses and churches are the most visible site of encounter and negotiation between immigrant newcomers and the settled population. In these places, which were ii simultaneously the most easily accessible and most difficult to avoid, relationships of power and marginality were revealed at the individual and community level. This dissertation identifies strategies of negotiation for access to urban space employed by Italians in Toronto included, but were not limited to, nurturing relationships with religious, civic and political authorities. The grassroots evolution of the PCM is an example of the way sensual experience, memory and emotion were located and expressed in urban space. This study argues these elements deserve scholarly attention. They were central to how Italians understood the degree to which they were welcome in different urban places and important for understanding why this highly visible processional practice known as the Processione di Cristo Morto was established in the College Street neighbourhood after migration and endured well beyond the immigrant generation. iii Dedication For my mother, Dora Paolantonio 1933-2019 iv Acknowledgments As a child I didn’t know anything about the annual College Street procession. Instead on Good Friday I walked alongside my mother in a procession which began inside our suburban church and travelled around the outdoor parking lot before re-entering the church. There were no statues or musical bands and our group never walked along a sidewalk or entered a road. It was a simple, quiet and unobtrusive devotional practice. For decades I walked with her because my mother asked me to do so. With great disappointment she eventually accepted that religious devotion was not an experience we would share. When my mother learned the topic of this dissertation her hope was that I would finally understand why she chose to walk, pray and sing in so many religious processions throughout her life. I think I finally do. I would like to thank the members of my committee. Professor Gabriele Scardellato first suggested the procession on Good Friday as a topic. His boundless patience and encouragement allowed me to meditate on the kind of scholarship I wanted to pursue. His advice was invaluable for getting me back on track when I was buried in interview transcriptions. It is difficult to describe all that I have learned from his compassionate mentorship, but certainly editing is at the top of the list. Roberto Perin’s questions and prodding challenged me to think more deeply about the connections to be drawn between various texts and provided much needed advice during the final editing process. I am also grateful to Carolyn Podruchny for her thoughtful comments on the final draft. I am indebted to the members of the Immigration Historians Group for their helpful commentary on various parts of this work. The supportive and congenial environment during monthly meetings provided fertile ground to explore emotion and sensuality as part of the v historical record. Many thanks to fellow graduate student Patrice Allen for her friendship and support. Our many conversations about historical method and theory were invaluable. This dissertation would have been impossible without the generosity of the various individuals who spent hours talking to me. Men and women shared stories about the things they did to found and grow the procession on Good Friday. But they also shared deeply personal and sometimes painful memories. I hope I have treated these revelations with the respect they deserve. In particular Giuseppe Simonetta and Rosario Iori supported the project by sharing their life stories and personal archives. Photographs, letters and official correspondence filled crucial gaps and provided much needed context. Both men also kindly offered encouragement and support which extended far beyond our formal interviews and not so gently implored me to “hurry up and finish.” I am indebted to Ricardo Aleixo, Sacristan of St. Francis of Assisi Roman Catholic Church who kindly allowed access to the St. Francis of Assisi Parish Archival Collection and shared his extensive knowledge of parish history and Italian processional life. Erin Bienert helped to guide me through the collection of the Archive of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Toronto and responded with endless patience to numerous email requests. I am grateful to Alexander Tabascio for creating the maps in this study. His suggestions and creativity helped to produce maps which enhance the text. Finally I would like to thank my family. It has been an absolute pleasure to be on the receiving end of enthusiastic support and encouragement from my daughters Alessandra and Via. Their interest in the content of this study and the process of dissertation writing has delighted and sustained me during the last difficult phase of writing. For twenty five years my husband Marzio vi Pozzuoli has been my greatest cheerleader. He eagerly embraced my return to graduate school and has supported me in every imaginable way through classes, comprehensive exams and the writing of this dissertation. Pursuing this PhD has been joyful in large part because I have shared it with him. vii Table of Contents Abstract ........................................................................................................................................... ii Dedication ...................................................................................................................................... iv Acknowledgments........................................................................................................................... v Table of Contents ......................................................................................................................... viii List of Tables ................................................................................................................................. ix List of Figures ................................................................................................................................. x Introduction ..................................................................................................................................... 1 Methodology and Sources......................................................................................................... 4 Historiography .......................................................................................................................... 6 Theory ..................................................................................................................................... 14 Chapter Overviews.................................................................................................................. 16 Conclusion .............................................................................................................................. 21 Chapter 1: Italian National Parishes and Processional Practice .................................................... 23 Chapter 2: Patron Saints Take to the Streets in Little Italy ........................................................... 55 Chapter 3: Origins, Memory and Place: Narratives About Cristo Morto and College Street .... 100 Chapter 4: Organizing for Growth: Immigrants and Ethnics Working Together ....................... 132 Chapter 5: “The Biggest Procession of its Kind in North America” .......................................... 186 Concluding Thoughts .................................................................................................................

  • Quaderni D'italianistica : Revue Officielle De La Société Canadienne
    ANGELO PRINCIPE CENTRING THE PERIPHERY. PRELIMINARY NOTES ON THE ITALLVN CANADL\N PRESS: 1950-1990 The Radical Press From the end of the Second World War to the 1980s, eleven Italian Canadian radical periodicals were published: seven left-wing and four right- wing, all but one in Toronto.' The left-wing publications were: II lavoratore (the Worker), La parola (the Word), La carota (the Carrot), Forze nuove (New Forces), Avanti! Canada (Forward! Canada), Lotta unitaria (United Struggle), and Nuovo mondo (New World). The right-wing newspapers were: Rivolta ideale (Ideal Revolt), Tradizione (Tradition), // faro (the Lighthouse or Beacon), and Occidente (the West or Western civilization). Reading these newspapers today, one gets the impression that they were written in a remote era. The socio-political reality that generated these publications has been radically altered on both sides of the ocean. As a con- sequence of the recent disintegration of the communist system, which ended over seventy years of East/West confrontational tension, in Italy the party system to which these newspapers refer no longer exists. Parties bear- ing new names and advancing new policies have replaced the older ones, marking what is now considered the passage from the first to the second Republic- As a result, the articles on, or about, Italian politics published ^ I would like to thank several people who helped in different ways with this paper.

  • An Examination of the Causes of Education Policy Outputs in Ontario, Saskatchewan, and Alberta
    Why Do Parties Not Make a Difference? An Examination of the Causes of Education Policy Outputs in Ontario, Saskatchewan, and Alberta By Saman Chamanfar A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements of the degree of Ph.D. Political Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Saman Chamanfar 2017 Why Do Parties Not Make a Difference? An Examination of the Causes of Education Policy Outputs in Ontario, Saskatchewan, and Alberta Saman Chamanfar Doctor of Philosophy Political Science University of Toronto 2017 Abstract This study seeks to explain why partisanship—contrary to what we might expect based on the findings of other studies concerning social policies—is generally not a useful explanatory variable when examining the primary and secondary education policies of three Canadian provinces (Ontario, Saskatchewan, and Alberta) during two periods (the 1970s and 1990- 2008). Four specific areas of the education sector of the provinces will be examined: objectives of curricula; spending; ministry relations with school boards; and government policies concerning private and charter schools. Utilizing a qualitative approach and building on the findings of other studies on provincial education systems, it will be argued that in order to understand why the three provinces generally adopted similar policies in both periods, regardless of the differences in the ideologies of governing parties, we need to consider the causal effect of key ideas in both periods. In addition, it will be shown that opposition parties in most instances did not present policies that differed from those of governing parties or criticize the policies of such parties. This will further illustrate the limited usefulness of adopting a partisanship lens when seeking to understand the policy positions of various parties in the provinces concerning the education sector.

  • The Use of Apprenticeship and Adoption by the Toronto Protestant Orphans’ Home, 1853–1869
    The Use of Apprenticeship and Adoption by the Toronto Protestant Orphans’ Home, 1853–1869 CHARLOTTE NEFF* While the Toronto Protestant Orphans’ Home, like other children’s homes of mid- to late-nineteenth-century Ontario, was established to make available long-term institutional care for dependent children, it also relied heavily on home placements. It made extensive use of both apprenticeship (binding out), which was a legally recognized and protected relationship, and adoption, which was not. The decisions of the Home’s female Managers were thus not driven by a rigid vision of the merits of institutional care or of what childhood should be like for their charges; rather, they dealt with each case individually, an approach that may be partially attributed to the maternal influence but also to pragmatic concerns. Home placement was an important feature of such care well before the implementation of the foster care system in 1893. Même si la Toronto Protestant Orphans’ Home avait été mise sur pied pour fournir des soins institutionnels de longue durée aux enfants à charge, à l’instar d’autres foyers pour enfants de l’Ontario du milieu et de la fin du XIXe siècle, elle comptait aussi grandement sur l’hébergement familial. Elle recourait de façon exhaustive à l’apprentissage (placement de travail en milieu familial), qui était une relation légalement reconnue et protégée, et à l’adoption, qui ne l’était pas. Les décisions des directrices de la maison n’étaient donc pas motivées par une vision rigide de ce que sont les mérites des soins institutionnelles ou de ce que l’enfance devrait être pour leurs protégés.

  • 'Turncoats, Opportunists, and Political Whores': Floor Crossers in Ontario
    “‘Turncoats, Opportunists, and Political Whores’: Floor Crossers in Ontario Political History” By Patrick DeRochie 2011-12 Intern Ontario Legislature Internship Programme (OLIP) 1303A Whitney Block Queen’s Park Toronto, Ontario M7A 1A2 Phone: 416-325-0040 [email protected] www.olipinterns.ca www.facebook.com/olipinterns www.twitter.com/olipinterns Paper presented at the 2012 Annual meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association Edmonton, Alberta Friday, June 15th, 2012. Draft: DO NOT CITE 2 Acknowledgements I would like to thank the following people for their support, advice and openness in helping me complete this research paper: Gilles Bisson Sean Conway Steve Gilchrist Henry Jacek Sylvia Jones Rosario Marchese Lynn Morrison Graham Murray David Ramsay Greg Sorbara Lise St-Denis David Warner Graham White 3 INTRODUCTION When the October 2011 Ontario general election saw Premier Dalton McGuinty’s Liberals win a “major minority”, there was speculation at Queen’s Park that a Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) from the Progressive Conservative (PC) Party or New Democratic Party (NDP) would be induced to cross the floor. The Liberals had captured fifty-three of 107 seats; the PCs and NDP, thirty-seven and seventeen, respectively. A Member of one of the opposition parties defecting to join the Liberals would have definitively changed the balance of power in the Legislature. Even with the Speaker coming from the Liberals’ ranks, a floor crossing would give the Liberals a de facto majority and sufficient seats to drive forward their legislative agenda without having to rely on at least one of the opposition parties. A January article in the Toronto Star revealed that the Liberals had quietly made overtures to at least four PC and NDP MPPs since the October election, 1 meaning that a floor crossing was a very real possibility.
