  • Ocean to Ocean G
    OCEAN TO OCEAN G. M. Grant's 'roundunvarnisk'd tale' David Jackel GIEORGE MONRO GRANT'S Ocean to Ocean has often been described as a classic Canadian travel book, and rightly so. Few other works of its kind retain their appeal three generations after publication, when the novelty of the experiences described has long dissipated and the writer himself has long ceased to be a figure in the popular mind. Grant still speaks to us, more than a hundred years after his journey, and his book would, I think, stand comparison with such non-Canadian classics of the genre as Defoe's Tour through the Whole Island of Great Britain and Boswell's Journal of a Tour to the Hebrides. Such a comparison is not, however, my purpose here. Although Grant's Ocean to Ocean is, indeed, a masterful travel narrative, it is also much more than that, and just how much more does not seem to have been recognized. In the revised Literary History of Canada R. G. Moyles does make brief reference to Grant's "narrative stances" and proposes that we view the book as a "combination of adventure- story and mythic chronicle."1 These comments are suggestive, but they do not go nearly far enough to explain either the significance of Grant's ideas or his artistry in expressing them. The word artistry I choose deliberately, because a literary analysis of Ocean to Ocean reveals that Grant has, notwithstanding his disclaimers, done more than simply forward to the printer the notes hastily taken during his transcontinental journey.

  • National Fate and Empire: George Grant and Canadian Foreign Policy
    National Fate and Empire: George Grant and Canadian Foreign Policy by Scott Staring A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Political Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Scott Patrick Staring 2010 National Fate and Empire: George Grant and Canadian Foreign Policy Doctor of Philosophy, 2010 Scott Staring Department of Political Science University of Toronto Abstract This study examines the foreign policy views of the Canadian thinker, George Grant. It focuses on the years between Mackenzie King’s re-election in 1935 and the Liberal party’s return to power under Lester Pearson in 1963. During this period, Grant argued, Canada was transformed from a British dependent to a satellite of the United States, a process that he believed had been accelerated by the continentalist economic and security policies of successive Liberal governments. As a young man during World War II, Grant admired the United States of F. D. Roosevelt. But as he began to contemplate the threat that a postwar Pax Americana posed to the societies of the Old World, and, ultimately, to Canada, his misgivings grew. His attempts to understand the emerging order led him to a critical study of modern liberalism, which he believed provided the chief philosophical justification for America’s expansion. Unlike Marxists who saw liberalism as simply an ideology of ii individual greed, Grant claimed that it succeeded largely by appealing to our hopes for social progress. These hopes found their loftiest expression in the belief that liberalism’s internationalization would produce the conditions for the overcoming of war within and between nations.

  • Parallel Tracks: American Transcontinentalism and the Specter of Canada
    Parallel Tracks: American Transcontinentalism and the Specter of Canada By Kathryn Ann Eigen A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor David Henkin, Chair Professor Kerwin Klein Professor Colleen Lye Spring 2010 Parallel Tracks: American Transcontinentalism and the Specter of Canada © 2010 by Kathryn Ann Eigen 1 Abstract Parallel Tracks: American Transcontinentalism and the Specter of Canada by Kathryn Ann Eigen Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor David Henkin, Chair Between 1840 and 1898, the United States and Canada reconfigured their geographic and demographic contours. In only the first few decades of this period, the United States added over one million square miles to its territory, gaining tens of thousands of new citizens through these annexations, while African-American men were, at least officially, granted citizenship and the franchise in the wake of the Civil War. In Canada, the provinces of Upper and Lower Canada were united with provinces as far away as British Columbia, and millions of British citizens became members of the new nation of Canada. My project explores the effects of these shifts on American national self-perception. While I analyze events and ideas in both the United States and Canada, the core of my argument is about the United States. Canadian expansion and unification was a continual backdrop to American attempts to dominate the North American continent, serving as both competition for continental domination and as a comparison for new U.S.

  • Haunted Canada: the Ninth Annual Trent-Carleton Graduate
    Haunted Canada: The Ninth Annual Trent-Carleton 2013 Graduate Conference in Canadian Studies. Held at Carleton University, March 15-16 “Haunted Memories and Search for Identity in Michael Ignatieff’s “The Russian Album” and “True Patriot Love,” by Romanov Konstantin, Ph.D. Canadian historian and politician Michael Ignatieff descends from Russian nobles and Scottish aristocrats who immigrated to Canada in the beginning of the nineteenth century. His two books The Russian Album, 1987 and True Patriot Love, 2009 retell the story of several generations of his family who lived in Russia and Canada in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This article analyses haunted stories from the past that impacted the formation of the authors’ personality and social views. Key words: identity, Canada, immigration, emigration, Russian Revolution. Michael Ignatieff, former leader of the Liberal party of Canada, is known as an author, academic and politician. Descendant of two noble families – Scottish and Russian –Ignatieff, in his books, reflects on his familial past in the nineteenth and twentieth century Canada, Britain and Russia. Most of the family members portrayed in The Russian Album, 1987 and True Patriot Love, 2009, were heavily involved in political life of Canada and Russia, which makes their memories and reflections a significant part of national histories. The author tries to rediscover his origins by recreating a true “documentary” story of family; and reconcile haunted periods and events of the past. Ignatieff mentioned in several interviews that family history has always reinforced and enriched his own sense of identity. Social disasters, such as revolutions, repressions, genocide, wars and expatriation were the major landmarks of the twentieth century.

  • Queen's University and Separation from the Presbyterian Church, 1900
    “Inevitable From the Beginning”: Queen’s University and Separation from the Presbyterian Church, 1900-12 ELSIE WATTS In 1912 Queen’s University at Kingston, Ontario, separated from the Presbyterian Church of Canada to become a public institution. Queen’s separation from the church would seem to support the contention by a number of Canadian historians of religion that in the Western world, during the nineteenth century, Protestant institutions accommodated their Christian doctrine to realities of modern thought and life and, in doing so, made Christian religion irrelevant in national institutions.1 Queen’s has been signalled as a specific Canadian institution which accommodated doctrine to the late-nineteenth century cultural context.2 In examining the process leading to separation in the years 1900 to 1912, therefore, one may expect to find that Queen’s lost much of its religious character and, therefore, its ability to influence society religiously. Did Queen’s University at Kingston “lose its soul” when it separated from the Presbyterian Church in 1912? Queen’s historians D.D. Calvin, Wilhelmina Gordon, Hilda Neatby, George Rawlyk and Kevin Quinn interpret separation as inevitable for financial rather than religious reasons. Calvin’s statement that “[a]s certainly as the child becomes an adult, so the records of the University prove . that separation from the Church had been inevitable from the beginning,” suggests that the connection with the church was not necessary for the university to achieve its aims.3 That Gordon, daughter of

  • Prohibition and the Social Gospel in Nova Scotia
    E. R. FORBES Prohibition and the Social Gospel in Nova Scotia The success of the Prohibition movement in Nova Scotia in 1921 was a result of the transformation of a narrow nineteenth century temperance crusade, based upon rural values and ideas of personal salvation, into a broad campaign for progressive reform. Armed with a new idealism, leadership and greatly expanded institutional support, prohibition became politically irresistable. The change was brought about largely through the churches, in which de­ velopment of a collectivist, reform theology accompanied the rise of progres­ sive ideology in secular thought. As influential elements among the clergy became committed to the social gospel, as the new theology was called, they provided both an agency for the propagation of reform ideas and the leader­ ship for their implementation.1 Viewed in this context, the popular image of the prohibitionists as frustrated puritanical zealots bent on suppressing the pleasures of others rapidly breaks down. A detailed examination of the prohibition movement in Nova Scotia suggests that the prohibitionists were motivated primarily by a desire to elim­ inate the roots of human unhappiness. They wanted to create a new society in which crime, disease and social injustice would be virtually eliminated. Their success in committing society to these goals would be reflected both in the victory of prohibition in Nova Scotia and in its ultimate defeat. 1 Richard Allen's pioneering study of the social gospel provides the key to an understanding of the prohibition movement in Canada. Although more concerned with the impact of the social gospel in moulding attitudes towards labour, Allen devotes a chapter to prohibition and indi­ cates the leading role played by the social reformers in the temperance movement.
