  • Visions of Canada: Photographs and History in a Museum, 1921-1967
    Visions of Canada: Photographs and History in a Museum, 1921-1967 Heather McNabb A Thesis In the Department of History Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) at Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada May 2015 © Heather McNabb 2015 ii iii ABSTRACT Visions of Canada: Photographs and History in a Museum, 1921-1967 Heather McNabb, PhD. Concordia University, 2015 This dissertation is an exploration of the changing role of photographs used in the dissemination of history by a twentieth-century Canadian history museum. Based on archival research, the study focuses on some of the changes that occurred in museum practice over four and a half decades at Montreal’s McCord Museum. The McCord was in many ways typical of other small history museums of its time, and this work illuminates some of the transformations undergone by other similar organizations in an era of professionalization of many fields, including those of academic and public history. Much has been written in recent scholarly literature on the subject of photographs and the past. Many of these works, however, have tended to examine the original context in which the photographic material was taken, as well as its initial use(s). Instead, this study takes as its starting point the way in which historic photographs were employed over time, after they had arrived within the space of the museum. Archival research for this dissertation suggests that photographs, initially considered useful primarily for reference purposes at the McCord Museum in the early twentieth century, gradually gained acceptance as historical objects to be exhibited in their own right, depicting specific moments from the past to visitors.

  • Banknotes and the Nation
    Andrew Champagne At the Intersection of Place Branding and Political Branding: Canadian Banknote Iconography and Political Priorities Abstract In 2012, the Bank of Canada began to release a new series of banknotes into circulation. Made of polymer and expected to last 2.5 times longer than previous versions, according to the Bank, these banknotes represent leading-edge technology and will expand the frontiers of banknote security. At the same time, compared to the previous “Canadian Journey” series, the overall iconography of the “Frontier” series has been noticeably changed. Over the course of their lifespan, more international visitors will be informed and influenced by Canadian banknote iconography than will Canadians. Throughout this article, I argue that the iconography of the “Frontier” series of banknotes is as much an expression of state power over a defined territory and its people, as it is a means to promote a particular view of Canada - both at home and abroad – that corresponds with the Conservative government of Stephen Harper’s political priorities and values. Considering that the Minister of Finance has authority over the “form and material” of the final design of all banknotes, I argue that Canadian banknote iconography is being used as an explicit means of political branding. In support of this, it is demonstrated that currency is increasingly being used as a means of mass communication more generally and through a quantitative content analysis of all banknotes produced by the central banks of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa; I argue that there can be two different categories of banknote iconography, political and non-political.

    Historica Canada Education Portal Fishing Boat BCP 45 Overview In this lesson, students will sort and categorize various Canadian coins, noting the type of information recorded on the fronts and backs and speculating on the significance of the portrayed events, people or developments. Using the Royal Canadian Mint’s timeline, they will examine a number of historical Canadian coins, determining with a partner the three most historically significant designs. They will use their selections to define the concept of historical significance. Students will learn about the history of Fishing Boat BCP 45, portrayed on the 1969 Canadian $5 bill, and discuss the historical significance of the boat. After researching three prominent people, events, or developments (either locally, provincially, or nationally), students will rank each in order of historical significance and create a design for a commemorative coin or new $5 bill for the person, event, or development most worthy of remembering in this way. Aims Prescribed Learning Outcomes: • identify and clarify a problem, issue, or inquiry • gather and record a body of information from a variety of primary and secondary sources • defend a position on a regional issue in light of alternative perspectives • demonstrate appreciation of contributions of Aboriginal people, the French and the British to the development of Canada • describe the historical development of various communities • demonstrate awareness of Canada's diverse heritage • analyse the influence of technology on lifestyle and work Background BCP 45 was a table seiner, so-called for the nets the fishermen used to catch the fish. It was built in 1927 for the BC Packer’s Steamship Company and used to fish herring and salmon along the West Coast from the Fraser River, near Vancouver, to the Alaska border.

  • The Art of Albert Chiarandini Osa, Fiial
    1-olga:0Syrimis 5/25/12 9:10 AM Page 9 UNCOMPROMISING GAZE: THE ART OF ALBERT CHIARANDINI O.S.A., F.I.I.A.L.* OLGA ZORZI PUGLIESE, GUIDO PUGLIESE, ANGELO PRINCIPE Summary: A close analysis of the paintings by Albert Chiarandini inscribed in several genres (portraiture, landscapes and compositions) and evaluated in light of the artist’s life experience, diary reflections, and personal interviews, reveals his fundamental concern for social justice. He chooses to portray the downtrodden with empathy, views important monuments from unusual angles that highlight their unpretentious side, and hints at the menacing conflict inherent in apparently pastoral scenes. His choice of political events and personages (Attila the Hun attacking Aquileia, the FLQ and Women’s Liberation movement in Quebec, the sacrifice of the outspoken Savonarola) underscores his condemnation of war and the suppression of personal freedoms. The artist’s numerous self- portraits and cameo appearances in other paintings are particularly indicative of the essence of Chiarandini’s works: his stance as a freedom fighter and his penetrating gaze into the heart of humankind. Introduction: Chiarandini’s Professional and Personal Biography and His View of Life Listed in various dictionaries of North American artists,1 Albert Chiarandini (Udine, Italy 1915 - Toronto 2007) had his first exhibit in 1938 at the Art Gallery of Toronto (now Art Gallery of Ontario) with the Ontario Society of Artists (O.S.A.) in the company of some members of * Some information for this article was gathered from interviews with the artist in 2004 at the artist’s home and subsequently at the numerous exhibits that took place at the Georgina Art Centre & Gallery and also in Toronto.

Representations of the Canadian West in late 19th-century English women's travel narratives1. Françoise LE JEUNE (Université de Nantes – CRHIA) The Canadian West has never been the subject of extensive historiographical research in comparison with the research literature on the American West. Clearly, for several decades until the 1970s, when Canadian scholars began to reconsider the Canadian West, there had been a general consensus that the West - whose temporal and spatial delineations remained imprecise -, corresponded to the so-called Far West of the American nation, and to the myth of the "frontier" with all the nationalist and imperialist connotations that American historian Frederick Jackson Turner had assigned to it in 1893.
