  • Memorial to Vladimir Stephen Papezik 1927-1984 GORDON A
    Memorial to Vladimir Stephen Papezik 1927-1984 GORDON A. GROSS Geological Survey o f Canada, Ottawa, Canada K1A 0E8 V. Stephen Papezik, Professor of Geology at Memorial University in Newfoundland, was an inspiring teacher, a congenial professional colleague, and a devoted scien­ tist. His death on June 23, 1984. after a year of illness, caused a serious loss to the geologic and mineralogic fraternities and to his many friends throughout Canada and the world. Stephen lived through a period of uncertainty and turmoil, but he was decisive and un­ compromising in maintaining the high principles and standards that characterized all aspects of his life. He was born in Brno, Czechoslovakia, on Febru­ ary 5, 1927, and entered the University of Masaryk in Brno in 1946, to study geography and history. His interest in geology was aroused in his second year, and he changed his emphasis to geology and physical geog­ raphy. In one of his personal papers he notes, “After the Communist seizure of power in Czechoslovakia, at the beginning of my third year at the University, I decided that the new government and I were mutually incompatible, and I escaped to Austria, then under Four Power occupation.” The story of his escape to freedom is sensational reading; one incident in it illustrates a major attribute of his character. Because of currency reforms in Austria, he made a secret return trip to an Austrian town which was under Communist occupation at the time to see that a priest who had assisted him was properly repaid. After escaping Czechoslovakia, Stephen was determined to reestablish himself in a scientific career.

  • The Places of Bay Roberts
    1 2 COVES, STREETS, FIELDS AND MORE: The Places of Bay Roberts Researched & Written by: Folklore Graduate Field School Class of 2017 Edited by: Katherine Harvey Oral History Roadshow Series #005 Heritage Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador Intangible Cultural Heritage Office St. John’s, NL, Canada Layout / design by Jessie Meyer 2018 3 INTRODUCTION The recollections in this booklet were recorded by students in Memorial University’s Folklore Department. For three weeks in September 2017, Memorial’s newest folklore graduate students arriving from Northern Ontario, all parts of the United States, Iran, and Israel, were transplanted to Bay Roberts to participate in a cultural documentation field school: a required course that takes place at the start of the first semester of the graduate program. The field school participants were warmly welcomed by local residents, and this booklet is both a “give back” to the community, as well as a product of what the students learned. The academic goals of the field school are for students to learn first-hand about cultural documentation: techniques of audio-recorded interviewing, ethnographic observation, writing fieldnotes, documentary photography, video-recording, organizing and archiving field data, analysing field data, and public presentation skills. In addition to skills and techniques, students learn to work in teams, to meet new people, and to recognize local traditions and culture— this is at the heart of folklore fieldwork. The warmth with which we were welcomed to Bay Roberts—from the very first day was a highlight. It was a cold and rainy Sunday afternoon, but students enjoyed the “Toutons and Tunes” walking tour, which ended in the Red Shed (a special place indeed!) with tea, toutons, scrunchions, crab legs, and traditional tunes—what a delicious introduction! Over the course of the next three weeks, students were invited into people’s homes, where they shared cups of tea, baked goods, 4 and stories.

  • Entanglements Between Irish Catholics and the Fishermen's
    Rogues Among Rebels: Entanglements between Irish Catholics and the Fishermen’s Protective Union of Newfoundland by Liam Michael O’Flaherty M.A. (Political Science), University of British Columbia, 2008 B.A. (Honours), Memorial University of Newfoundland, 2006 Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences © Liam Michael O’Flaherty, 2017 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Summer 2017 Approval Name: Liam Michael O’Flaherty Degree: Master of Arts Title: Rogues Among Rebels: Entanglements between Irish Catholics and the Fishermen’s Protective Union of Newfoundland Examining Committee: Chair: Elise Chenier Professor Willeen Keough Senior Supervisor Professor Mark Leier Supervisor Professor Lynne Marks External Examiner Associate Professor Department of History University of Victoria Date Defended/Approved: August 24, 2017 ii Ethics Statement iii Abstract This thesis explores the relationship between Newfoundland’s Irish Catholics and the largely English-Protestant backed Fishermen’s Protective Union (FPU) in the early twentieth century. The rise of the FPU ushered in a new era of class politics. But fishermen were divided in their support for the union; Irish-Catholic fishermen have long been seen as at the periphery—or entirely outside—of the FPU’s fold. Appeals to ethno- religious unity among Irish Catholics contributed to their ambivalence about or opposition to the union. Yet, many Irish Catholics chose to support the FPU. In fact, the historical record shows Irish Catholics demonstrating a range of attitudes towards the union: some joined and remained, some joined and then left, and others rejected the union altogether.
