    Daly Berman 1 Amanda Elaine Daly Berman Boston University, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Department of Musicology and Ethnomusicology Repression to Reification: Remembering and Revitalizing the Cape Breton Musical Diaspora in the Celtic Commonwealth INTRODUCTION Cape Breton Island, the northeast island of the Canadian province of Nova Scotia, has long had a strong connection with New England, and the Boston area in particular, due to its maritime location and relative geographic proximity. At its peak in the mid-20th century, the Boston Cape Breton community is estimated to have numbered close to 100,000 members. However, as Sean Smith writes in the June 3, 2010 issue of the Boston Irish Reporter, Greater Boston’s Cape Breton community is undergoing a transition, with the graying of the generation that played such a major role during the 1950s and 1960s in establishing this area as a legendary outpost for music and dance of the Canadian Maritimes. Subsequent generations of Cape Bretoners have simply not come down to the so-called “Boston states” on the same scale, according to the elders; what’s more, they add, the overall commitment to traditional music and dance hasn’t been as strong as in past generations.1 Further, he notes that it is “non-Cape Bretoners [e.g., members of other Maritime communities, non-Cape Breton Bostonians] who seem to make up more of the attendance at these monthly dances” held at the Canadian-American Club (also known as the Cape Breton Gaelic Club) in Watertown, Massachusetts. The club serves as a gathering site for area members of the Cape Breton and the greater Maritime diaspora, offering a monthly Cape Breton Gaelic Club Ceilidh and weekly Maritime open mic sessions.

  • Region and the Rise of Neoliberalism in the Fiction of Alistair Macleod
    A Family of Migrant Workers: Region and the Rise of Neoliberalism in the Fiction of Alistair MacLeod Jody Mason he values accorded to labour in Canadian literary dis- courses have shifted remarkably since the early nineteenth cen- tury, when a literary culture in English was first nurtured by Tanglophone settlers. Oliver Goldsmith’s frequently anthologized long poem “The Rising Village” (1825) presents the figure of the individual male labourer (in this case, a farmer) as one who performs his territor- ial claim via his improvement of the soil. By cultivating the land, this labourer is able to repulse the omnipresent threat of the “wandering Indian”: “By patient firmness and industrious toil / He still retains pos- session of the soil” (lines 103-04). This essentially Lockean argument — that the individual ownership of goods and property is justified by the labour exerted to produce those goods — is frequently repeated in Canadian literary discourses (in some prairie novels of the modern period, for example) and often serves nation-making ends (when it is harnessed to Romantic nationalism in the Confederation period, for example). Of course, this argument depends on labour that is under- taken in a specific place. However, writers in Canada have long called attention to the fact that Canada is a place shaped by another kind of labour practice — labour that is mobile, that migrates, that does not stay in place. Contemporary novels such as Michael Ondaatje’s In the Skin of a Lion (1987), Cecil Foster’s Slammin’ Tar (1998), Alistair MacLeod’s No Great Mischief (1999), and, more recently, Robert McGill’s Once We Had a Country (2013) all direct readers to an alternative conception of labour’s place in Canadian cultural history, urging us to see that the settler claims forged through labour (and the improvement of land) elide alternative histories of work and class relations.

  • Frederick Roehrig: a Forgotten Name in Salish Linguistics Elena Barreiro Port Coquitlam, British Columbia
    Frederick Roehrig: A forgotten name in Salish linguistics Elena Barreiro Port Coquitlam, British Columbia Professor Frederick Louis Otto Roehrig, a distinguished philologist, linguist, and polyglot, traveled broadly in North America doing research on languages from several families. His research in the Pacific Northwest resulted in vocabulary lists from several Salish languages. Because the collected data often represent several dialects of the same language, they allow us to see some details about a language at the time of early contact. For example, Roehrig’s lists are useful for the study of variation and change within the Central Salish language, Halkomelem. KEYWORDS: Roehrig, Salish, Halkomelem 1. Introduction 1 Professor Frederick Louis Otto Roehrig, a specialist in modern and ancient languages, left us a legacy of important documentary materials. Roehrig was a talented person: he held both a Ph.D. in philology and a medical degree and practiced otolaryngology.2 His linguistic works include books and articles on Sanskrit, ancient and modern Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Persian, Turkish, Malayan, Finnish, German, Irish, and French. In addition, he undertook research on a variety of North American languages, immersing himself in various tribal communities. Roehrig not only created vocabularies of Inuit, Dakota, and numerous Athabaskan and Salish languages, but also championed the cause of linguistic research in those languages. He passionately argued that “on this continent, researches in philology, ethnology, and history should have for their main object the languages and nations of America.” (Roehrig 1874: 16). This paper pays tribute to Roehrig’s legacy. After a brief biography, an overview of his Vocabulary of Salish Languages (ca.1870) is given, with special attention to his work on the Central Salish language Halkomelem.

    SCOTTISH HERITAGE USA NEWSLETTER ISSUE # 2-2017 Scottish Heritage USA NEWSLETTER Welcome to our tent at GMHG! SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER 2017 2017 GRANDFATHER MOUNTAIN GUEST SPEAKER JOHN McKENDRICK SPONSORED BY SCOTTISH HERITAGE British lawyer and the Attorney General of the British Overseas Territory of Anguilla, John McKendrick, has written an exciting novel about the unsuccessful 17th century Scottish venture to begin a colony in Panama: Darien: A Journey In Search of Empire which was published by A Birlinn in February 2016. John grew up in the village of Strathblane, Scotland and was schooled at Kelvinside Academy in Glasgow . He received his further education at the London School of Economics, the University of Leuven, and University of Oxford. He was called to the English Bar in 1999, the Scottish Bar in 2008, and the Bar of the Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court in 2013. In 2016 Her Majesty the Queen appointed him Queen’s Counsel, and later that year the Foreign and Commonwealth Office appointed him for a two-year term as the Honourable Attorney General of the beautiful Caribbean Island of Anguilla. He was the London Times Lawyer of the Week in September 2013, and nominated for The Lawyer magazine's Barrister of the Year award for 2016. John has also had experience in Scottish politics running as the Labour candidate for Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross in 2007 Scottish Parliament elections. In the 2010 General Election, he stood as the Labour candidate for Ross, Skye and Lochaber. As a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society, John travels a lot and during a visit to Panama City and meeting with members of the St Andrews Society, he was inspired to learn about the Darien venture undertaken by Scotland in the late17th C.

SITES OF INDIGENOUS LANGUAGE PRACTICE: GEOGRAPHY OF AMERICAN INDIAN LANGUAGE POLICY A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the Louisiana State University and Agricultural and Mechanical College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in The Department of Geography & Anthropology by Thomas Brasdefer Master, Université de Poitiers, 2005 August 2013 Acknowledgements There is a lot I have to acknowledge, and the benign recursion of this section is just too good to be omitted. Thank you for reading these lines: you are the Copernican revolution to this dissertation. None of this would have ever happened without the input of hundreds of people who took my phone calls, braved more communication breakdowns than I can count and talked to me for a minute or twelve; thank you, I cannot say for sure that I would have done the same for you.
