ARCHIVES and SPECIAL COLLECTIONS QUEEN ELIZABETH II LIBRARY MEMORIAL UNIVERSITY, ST. JOHN'S, NL The Geography Collection COLL-137 Website: http://www.library.mun.ca/qeii/cns/archives/cnsarch.php Author: Linda White and Claire Jamieson Date: 1999 Scope and Content: The Geography Collection consists of 1109 black and white photographs together with contact prints and negatives. These photographs depict many images of Newfoundland and Labrador houses, churches, public buildings, ships, railways, communities, and special events. The creation of these photographs was primarily the work of three prominent photographers: Robert Holloway, S.H. Parsons and James Vey. Through a special project initiated by the Geography Department of Memorial University of Newfoundland, the photographs were copied from the original glass negatives that were in the custody of the Newfoundland Museum but are now on deposit in the Provincial Archives of Newfoundland and Labrador. They were arranged and described in an annotated guide to the collection, The Historic Photographic Collection of the Department of Geography, in three volumes by Dr. Maurice Scarlett, professor of Geography, Memorial University of Newfoundland, and his wife, Shirley Scarlett. These photographs will be of interest to anyone seeking historic photographs of Newfoundland and Labrador. Custodial History: The photographs in this collection were copied from glass negatives held at the Provincial Archives of Newfoundland and Labrador. They were copied, arranged and described by members of the Geography Department, Memorial University of Newfoundland, including Michael Crane and Dr. Maurice Scarlett. Upon his retirement, Dr. Scarlett donated the photographs and negatives to Archives and Special Collections. Restrictions: There are no restrictions on access to or use of the materials in this collection. Users should be aware that copyright rules and regulations may apply to all or some parts of this collection. It is the responsibility of the users to obtain copyright clearance from the copyright holder(s). Extent: 1109 black and white photographs with contact prints and negatives Biography or History: This collection of photographs was acquired through a project initiated by Michael Crane, cartographer with the Department of Geography, Memorial University of Newfoundland. Crane was anxious to preserve the substantial collection of glass plate negatives that were stored at the Newfoundland Museum. Crane, along with Dr. John Mannion, also of the Geography Department, applied for and received funding from the Canada Council to assist with this work. With the co-operation of F. Burnham Gill, the Provincial Archivist, work began in 1976. Crane did the copying of the photographs in the Department of Geography's dark room. A print, together with the original cleaned and properly stored glass negative, was then returned to the Newfoundland Museum. A collection of plastic 4x4 negatives and prints remained in the Department of Geography. Dr. Maurice Scarlett and his wife, Shirley Scarlett, became associated with the project very soon after it began. (According to sources in the Geography Department, most of the work of describing the photographs and compiling the index was done by Shirley Scarlett). They eventually published an annotated index in three volumes titled The Historic Photographic Collection of the Department of Geography, in 1980, 1981 and 1987 respectively. Volume One was an index to the images related to St. John's and environs, Volume Two was an index to the community images related to Newfoundland excluding St. John's, and Volume Three was an index to "special topics" such as sealing, the building of the dry dock in St. John's, shipping, aviation, railways, displays and commercial buildings. Financial support for the project came from several sources over the years. The Institute of Social and Economic Research, Memorial University, and the Geography Department both contributed money and resources. However, for reasons unknown, the project came abruptly to an end after the second volume had been published. According to the introduction in Volume Three, the project was finally completed w Arrangement: The Geography Collection consists of approximately 1109 images. They were arranged and described according to the Scarletts' personal style of indexing as seen in their guide, The Historic Photographic Collection of the Department of Geography. This guide has been replaced with a new finding aid which incorporates the Rules for Archival Description. The number in square brackets listed after each entry refers to the original number in the guide, The Historic Photographic Collection of the Department of Geography. The original three volume guide by Maurice and Shirley Scarlett is included in the collection. Series 1.0 St. John's: Streets and Town views 2. St. John's: Buildings 3. St. John's Harbour 4.

    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.

  • How the Catholic Church Sexual Abuse Crisis Changed Private Law

    How the Catholic Church Sexual Abuse Crisis Changed Private Law

    CARDINAL SINS: HOW THE CATHOLIC CHURCH SEXUAL ABUSE CRISIS CHANGED PRIVATE LAW MAYO MORAN* ABSTRACT For several decades now, the unfolding of the Catholic Church sexual abuse crisis has been front-page news. It has wreaked havoc on hundreds of thousands of lives, cost the Church billions of dollars, and done irreparable harm to a once-revered institution. Along the way, it has also helped to transform the all- important private law of responsibility. When the crisis began to break in the early 1980s, the few survivors who sought legal redress faced a daunting array of obstacles. Limitations periods alone had the effect of barring almost all child sexual abuse claims. Immunities also helped to shield the Church. Private law itself was generally hostile to institutional liability, particularly where the harm resulted from the criminal act of an individual. All of that has changed. Among the catalysts for change within private law, the Catholic Church sex abuse crisis looms large. The scale of the crisis and the universal nature of the Church were certainly both important factors, but so too was the Church's response. From the initial impulse to cover up instances of abuse to choices made in the legal and political arenas, it appeared willing to do almost anything to protect itself. Yet the Church had traditionally bene®ted from special treatment precisely on the ground that it was not an ordinary, self-interested legal actor. The tension between the Church's mission and its approach to covering up abuse began to attract notice. Courts and legislators were prompted to act.

Although the island became a military stronghold in the 1790's, Vikings probably landed as early as the 10th century, when they were carried there by wind and current. Later, the island's existence was common knowledge among European fishermen, who called the land on their maps Bacca- laos (cod) in tribute to the silvery fish which drew them across the Atlantic Ocean. Fishing expeditions were greatly encour­ aged by the voyages of exploration at the end of the 15th century. John Cabot from England in 1497 and 1498, and Jacgues Cartier, from France in 1534, acclaimed the natural wealth of the Grand Banks off New­ foundland. As the fishing industry grew its methods changed. Fleets had been leaving Europe in the spring and returning in the autumn, but in the 16th century some fishermen began to winter in Newfoundland, building smaii settlements along the coast.
