Le récit de voyage a maqué le XI?(= siècle canadien-fraiiçais. Nous avons recensé environ 150 récits publiés en volume pour cette période, soit le double de la production romanesque. La production du récit de voyage montre un comporterneiit singulier. Cela se manifeste surtout pendant la décennie 1880, alors que la pratique connaît une croissance éditoriale inégalée. Ce « boum H s'explique par plusieurs facteurs : évolution des transports; influence du français, surtout Chateaubriand; désir de constituer une littérature nationale; flexibilité de la pratique face aux idéologies ultramontaine et colonisatrice. Des écrivains comme F.4. Garneau, A.-B. Routliier, Faucher de Saint-Maurice, H. Beaugraiid et J.-P. Tardive1 utilisent le récit de voyage pour se représenter sous les traits d'hommes d'élite. Les années 1880 voient coexister deux conceptions de la pratique, l'une informative, axée sur la description du réel; l'autre impressionniste, tournée vers le narrateur subjectif.

Maintenant que les chercheurs tiennent compte du contexte spécifique au Québec, la nécessité d7erplorer des corpus autres que les genres canoniques (roman, poésie et théiitre) s'est rapidement imposée. s La nécessité de recourir à des textes nouveaux, en nature, en genre et en nombre, explique Manon Brunet, devient plus qu'une exigence en soi : c'est également une exigence de la nouvelle histoire littéraire. B' Lucie Robert précise : ... la recherche sur la littérature québécoise offre un certain nombre de point de vue tout à fait originaux (notamment sur la question de l'institution littéraire ou sur le récit de voyage) qui permettent, d'une part, de relativiser les affirmations de la théorie française (qui a souvent cette fâcheuse habitude de généraliser à partir de la seule étude de textes français) et, d'autre part, de théoriser des problèmes que la littérature francpise n'a pas ou a peu rencontrés.' Ainsi, le récit de voyage se révèle un nouveau sujet d'études, une voie qui permettrait d'appréhender différemment l'histoire littéraire québécoise. En effet, même si les critiques considèrent aujourd'hui ce genre comme appartenant au domaine paralittéraire, celui-ci, avant la Seconde Guerre moiidiale, faisait partie intégrante de la littérature. N'oublions pas qu'alors, ce mot couvrait un domaine beaucoup plus l M.

Napoléon Bourassa nous fournit une définition de la notion de littérature pour le XK siècle : * La Littérature est l'expression par la parole écrite ou parlée du Vrai, du Bie~iet du Beau dans les idées et dans les sentiments, et c7està ce titre que la Philosophie, l'Histoire, le Droit, L'Économie Sociale, 12sthétique et lYApologétiquechrétienne en font partie B'. Au cours du ,YIX siècle, le récit de voyage conmît un important prestige au Cana& français. Tous les plus grands écrivains de cette époque en oiit publié : Fraliçois-Xavier Garneau, Jean-Baptiste-Antoine ferland, Arthur Buies, Henri-Raymond Casgrain, Adolphe-Basile Routhier, Narcisse-Henri-Edouard Faucher de Saint-Maurice, Horioré Beaugrand, Jules-Paul Taidivel, etc. Ce prestige est associé a une production d'une ampleur sans précédent et concentrée dans les années 1580, comme nous le vemons au chapitre 1. Certains pourraient souligner le fait que le XX' siècle constitue une très longue période pour un mémoire de maîtrise. Cela est nécessaire, puisque nous voulons donner un portrait d'ensemble de la production du récit de voyage, en privilégiant le point de vue diachronique.

  • An Historical Overview of Vancouver Barracks, 1846-1898, with Suggestions for Further Research
    Part I, “Our Manifest Destiny Bids Fair for Fulfillment”: An Historical Overview of Vancouver Barracks, 1846-1898, with suggestions for further research Military men and women pose for a group photo at Vancouver Barracks, circa 1880s Photo courtesy of Clark County Museum written by Donna L. Sinclair Center for Columbia River History Funded by The National Park Service, Department of the Interior Final Copy, February 2004 This document is the first in a research partnership between the Center for Columbia River History (CCRH) and the National Park Service (NPS) at Fort Vancouver National Historic Site. The Park Service contracts with CCRH to encourage and support professional historical research, study, lectures and development in higher education programs related to the Fort Vancouver National Historic Site and the Vancouver National Historic Reserve (VNHR). CCRH is a consortium of the Washington State Historical Society, Portland State University, and Washington State University Vancouver. The mission of the Center for Columbia River History is to promote study of the history of the Columbia River Basin. Introduction For more than 150 years, Vancouver Barracks has been a site of strategic importance in the Pacific Northwest. Established in 1849, the post became a supply base for troops, goods, and services to the interior northwest and the western coast. Throughout the latter half of the nineteenth century soldiers from Vancouver were deployed to explore the northwest, build regional transportation and communication systems, respond to Indian-settler conflicts, and control civil and labor unrest. A thriving community developed nearby, deeply connected economically and socially with the military base. From its inception through WWII, Vancouver was a distinctly military place, an integral part of the city’s character.

Its inspiration came from Carlos Schwantes historical survey, The Pacific Northwest: An Interpretive History which provides a glimpse of national events in American history through a regional approach. David Peterson Del Mar’s Oregon Promise: An Interpretive History has a similar approach as Schwantes, it is a reflective social and cultural history of the state’s diversity. The text offers a broad perspective of various ethnicities, political figures, and marginalized identities.

    CCHA, Historical Studies, 66 (2000), 34-55 A Canadien Bishop in the Ecclesiastical Province of Oregon Roberta Stringham BROWN Ordained in the Quebec City in 1821, Augustin Magliore Blanchet (1797-1887) served as bishop of Walla Walla (1846-1850) and later of Nesqually (1850-1879), presently the Archdiocese of Seattle, Washing- ton. This article examines how Blanchet’s earlier experience as priest in French Canada provided skills for survival during the first years of his episcopacy in the Province of Oregon, and later shaped the way he thought about himself and the role of the church.1 Primary sources for this examination include Blanchet’s extended correspondence with Ignace Bourget, Bishop of Montreal, and the letter-books of Blanchet himself as Bishop of Walla Walla and of Nesqually, preserved in the archives of the Archdiocese of Seattle. Events in the life of A.M. Blanchet prior to his relocation in the Oregon Country are closely linked to historical events during a critical time in French Canada. Blanchet was born to a modest farming family in St. Pierre de Montmagny, his great-grandfather having left Picardy in 1666 for New France where he married the daughter of an earlier French colonist. In 1809 A.M. Blanchet entered the Petit Séminaire and then completed his studies at the Grand Séminaire of Quebec City. Shortly after ordination, he served as missionary among Acadians at Chéticamp, Nova Scotia and on the Iles de la Madeleine for four years. He was later called upon to take important posts as archpriest in the Montreal region, ministering at Saint-Charles in Saint-Charles-on-the- 1 This article has arisen from the author’s current translation of the letter- books of Bishop A.M.

  • St. Paul Catholic Church, Marion County by Federal Writers' Project the Small Farming Community of St
    St. Paul Catholic Church, Marion County By Federal Writers' Project The small farming community of St. Paul is dominated by the St. Paul Catholic Church. This 1939 photograph was taken a century after the establishment of the parish and nearly ninety-three years after its construction. The photograph was created for the Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS), the first national inventory of the nation’s historic structures. Former fur trappers of French Canadian heritage and Roman Catholic faith began settling the rich lands of the Willamette Valley in the 1820s. Many married Indian women, and the growing families sent word to eastern Canada of their desire for Catholic priests in the Oregon Country. Sometime in 1836, a hopeful group of settlers in the French Prairie area erected a log church, some 30 feet by 70 feet in size. In 1838, the Revs. François Norbert Blanchet and Modeste Demers set forth from Québec for Fort Vancouver, arriving on November 28. On January 6, 1839, Father Blanchet celebrated the first Catholic mass in Oregon at St. Paul, blessed the log church and dedicated it to St. Paul. Over the next decade, the church became the nucleus of a religiously-centered farming community that came to include a school for boys, St. Joseph’s College, a convent for the Sisters of Notre Dame du Namur who came from Belgium in 1844, and an academy for women and girls. The log church was replaced by a new one, made of bricks burned at the site, which was dedicated on November 1, 1846. A simple vernacular structure, it was nonetheless imposing, especially in its central bell tower topped by a cross, and its gothic-arched windows.

  • The Most Reverend Modeste Demers, D.D. First Bishop of Vancouver Island
    CCHA, Report, 20 (1953), 29-35 The Most Reverend Modeste Demers, D.D. First Bishop of Vancouver Island by Most Rev. J. M. HILL, D.D. One hundred and twenty-five years ago, the Pacific North-West, that immense territory stretching from the northern limits of California to Alaska and from the shores of the Pacific to the eastern slopes of the Rockies, was a vast terra incognita into which few white men had as yet penetrated. In this immense stretch of land where hundreds of thousands of Indians, banded together into powerful tribes and living in the most primitive conditions, roamed the land at will, the only white inhabitants of this great North-West were the employees of the Hudson’s Bay Company which had gradually extended its lucrative fur-trade across Canada to the Pacific shores. Among the men of this Company were many French Canadians, hardy trappers and sturdy voyageurs who, lured by the love of adventure and the thirst for wealth, had crossed the continent and, finding themselves far from home with little hope of return, had married Indian women and established pioneer settlements on the Pacific Coast. From one of these distant trading posts in Oregon – that of Fort Vancouver and its thirty Canadian families – came the first requests for Catholic missionaries; in 1834 and 1835 two urgent appeals were directed to the nearest Catholic Bishop, Rt. Rev. J. N. Provencher of Red River (St. Boniface), and through him, to Archbishop J. Signay of Quebec. Three years later, in 1838, in answer to these petitions, the Archbishop of Quebec appointed to this new mission field two young priests, Rev.

  • YAKIMA DAYS a Nat'rative of the Events Which Led to The
    YAKIMA DAYS A nat'rative of the events which led to the abandonment of the Oblate Missions among the Yakima Indians and the subse­ quent opening for settlement of the Okanogan Valley in British Coltl1nbia in the year 1859. The old Mission of the Immaculate Conception on the shores of Lake Okanogan has passed away. Its buildings have with few exceptions been taken down. Its farms and orchards are incor­ porated in other holdings. The fertile valIey which the first mis­ sionary fathers found deserted, save for the native Indians and one white family, is now the great apple country of the Canadian Northwest; the center of which is Kelowna, some six miles from the original Mission site. The story of how the Oblate Fathers came to take up their residence there, and to encourage others to do the same, is of interest, and may be recorded before the generation that knew them has entirely passed on. As briefly as possible let us sketch the events which brought the ":\1issionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate," to give them their fulI title, to the north west coast of America at all. Founded by Charles Joseph Eugene de Mazenod in 1816, they were first known as "Missionaries of Provence," for it was in the south of France that they were called into being to repair the ravages done to religious education by the revolutionary period. Their founder became in later days (in 1837) Bishop of Mar­ seilles, and died at an advanced aged in 1861. In February 1826, his band of brothers had received approbation as a congregation by Pope Leo XII.
