    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[De Fahri et Frenette: &quot;Entre juillet 1917 et octobre 1918, Alma Drouin, jeune Franco-Américaine de Laconia, au New Hampshire, séjourne a` Montréal. Ce sont les perspectives de mobilité professionnelle offertes par la métropole du Canada qui l&#039;y ont attirée, ainsi que la vie trépidante qu&#039;elle y percevait. A`partir de sa correspondance et de son journal intime, nous avons tenté de saisir les représentations que se fait Alma de sa vie quotidienne à  Montréal et de comprendre comment cette grande ville fait partie de sa cartographie mentale, qui est plus vaste; Alma Drouin est en fait porteuse d&#039;une identité hybride et d&#039;une conscience transnationale, qui se manifeste notamment par sa participation à  un réseau épistolaire canado-américain. Tout comme son usage de la mobilité géographique à  des fins de mobilité sociale, le réseau épistolaire d&#039;Alma s&#039;inscrit dans une tradition migratoire occidentale et canadienne-francaise. Si elle se construit dans sa correspondance et son journal intime comme une jeune travailleuse autonome, Alma dépend néanmoins d&#039;un important réseau transfrontalier de parents, d&#039;amis et de connaissances.&quot; ]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[&quot;Speak White&quot; : Language Policy, Immigration, Discourse, and Tactical Authenticity in a French Enclave in New England]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Article analyzing the Sentinelle Affair in 1920s Rhode Island as a case study in &lt;i&gt;la survivance&lt;/i&gt;, for the role of language politics in spectres of assimilation and white ethnicity in the United States, and as a lens to the political economies that have historically upheld English Only language policy arguments. An expansive reading of Sentinellist responses to American Catholic Church English language policies for parochial schools. How events like the Sentinelle Affair imply what have been historical, multifaceted linguistic realities in education throughout the United States, and in particular in New England French-heritage enclaves of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Argument in favor of Franco American &quot;settlement&quot; in New England as best understood in the discourse of diaspora instead of the &quot;resistance-assimilation&quot; dichotomy that often accompanies discussions of local culture in American immigration.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From MIT Press Journals: &quot;During the 1920s, the Ku Klux Klan expanded to the northeastern United States, where it confronted Franco-American Catholics throughout Maine. In response, this ethnic population modeled an appropriate resistance to the KKK&#039;s unyielding message of Americanism and nativism, helping to precipitate the demise of this reactionary mass movement.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;This article examines a little-known dimension to the Ku Klux Klan movement in the United States during the 1920s. As Anglo-Canadian Protestants supported the KKK to assert control over French-Canadian and other Catholics in the New England states, they undermined the Klan&#039;s emphasis on Americanism and illustrated an inherent contradiction in this avowedly nativist organization.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

The proximity of Québec made possible the maintenance of intimate social and cultural relationships between emigrants and their homeland. Thousands of Franco-Americans were educated in the colleges classiques of French Canada, assuring an ideological conformity between elite groups on both sides of the border and delaying the Americanization of Franco-Americans for several decades.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[A Map of Mexico City Blues : Jack Kerouac as Poet]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Southern Illinois University Press: &quot;In this pioneering critical study of Jack Kerouacâ&#039;s book-length poem, &#039;Mexico City Blues&#039; a poetic parallel to the writerâ&#039;s fictional saga, the &#039;Duluoz Legend&#039; James T. Jones uses a rich and flexible neoformalist approach to argue his case for the importance of Kerouacâ&#039;s rarely studied poem....After a brief summary of Kerouacâ&#039;s poetic career, Jones embarks on a thorough reading of &#039;Mexico City Blues&#039; from several different perspectives: he first focuses on Kerouacâ&#039;s use of autobiography in the poem and then discusses how Kerouacâ&#039;s various trips to Mexico, his conversion to Buddhism, his theory of spontaneous poetics, and his attraction to blues and jazz influenced the theme, structure, and sound of Mexico City Blues....Jonesâ&#039;s multidimensional explication suggests the formal and thematic complexity of Kerouacâ&#039;s long poem and demonstrates the major contribution Mexico City Blues makes to postâ€“World War II American poetry and poetics.&quot; <br />

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[A Modern-Day Voyageur Family : Paddling the 3,000 Mile Fur Trade Canoe Route Across the U.S. and Canada]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;When Kevin and Ben Kent were ages seven and five, their parents conceived an exciting, enriching, and educational project for the family. As a team, they began paddling the 3,000 mile length of the mainline fur trade canoe route across the U.S. and Canada, retracing the steps of their French ancestors. This ancient native route, which consisted of an extensive series of rivers and lakes, stretched from Montreal to the Great Lakes to Ft. Chipewyan on Lake Athabasca, in northern Alberta. This was the primary highway on which most fur trade, military, and religious personnel had traveled and hauled cargo into and out of the interior regions of North America during the entire fur trade era. Successfully paddling this ancient water highway from end to end over a series of fifteen consecutive summer trips, the Kent family experienced daunting challenges and terrifying calamities, as well as innumerable thrills and a great deal of satisfaction. In the process, the members of the family also absorbed much geography and history, and, most importantly, developed an appreciation of their own inner strengths. This engrossing and thought-provoking account of the adventures of the family incorporates a considerable amount of fur trade history, in which their direct French ancestors participated from about 1618 to at least 1758. &#039;A Modern-Day Voyageur Family,&#039; written by one of the pre-eminent historians of the fur trade era, serves as both a source of inspiration and a guidebook for other families, couples, and individuals who wish to paddle all or portions of the historic route, or various other wilderness waterways. It also provides vicarious experiences and myriad lessons for those individuals whose venturing usually takes place in a safe reading chair on land. This work consists of a vivid adventure story, a how-to guide, and a primer on virtually all aspects of the French fur trade, all in one volume.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;Since the onset of la Revolution Tranquille more than 25 years ago, the province of Québec has established an ever-increasing international presence, alone and in cooperation with the Canadian federal government. Provincial authorities, with assertiveness and confidence, have worked to establish the province as the heartland of the French in North America and also to present the Québécois as representing a distinctive society. This study briefly traces the evolution of the Québécois&#039; adventurous nature and examines the various ways in which the province functions beyond its frontiers, especially within the academic milieu.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From University of Toronto Press: &quot;In the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, a local economy made up of settlers, loggers, and business people from Lower Canada, New Brunswick, and New England was established on the banks of the Upper St. John River....In &#039;Backwoods Consumers and Homespun Capitalists,&#039; Béatrice Craig examines and describes this economy from its origins in the native fur trade, the growth of exportable wheat, the selling of food to new settlers, and of ton timbre to Britain. Craig vividly portrays the role of wives who sold homespun fabric and clothing to farmers, loggers, and river drivers, helping to bolster the community. The construction of saw, grist, and carding mills, and the establishment of stores, boarding houses, and taverns are all viewed as steps in the development of what the author calls &#039;homespun capitalists.&#039;&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

From the cover: &quot;From the English settlers who founded the Jamestown colony to the recent refugees from Vietnam and Cuba, the history of American has always been tied to the fortunes of its immigrants. Thomas J. Archdeacon presents a fascinating account of the foreign peoples and cultures that for nearly four centuries have transformed America and, in the process, transformed themselves. Discussing Europeans and Asians, Africans and American Indians, he weaves their stories together, shows how they mingle and diverge, and relates their collective experience to the critical decisions we face in coping with the thousands of immigrants who continue to arrive yearly on our shores.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Discussion of &quot;border culture&quot; as a product of both the divisions and the transnational cultural and political relationships apparent in societies that share a geopolitical boundary. Exploration of &quot;borderlands theory&quot; as a means for considering the origins, functions, and development of national borders in a globalizing world. Specific focus on the boundary between the United States and Canada, on what the authors call &quot;the multiple layers of border&quot; - political, social, economic, legal, cultural -  and how they are woven organically though communities on each side of the dividing boundary. How borders shape and help us to think about human culture. From the authors: &quot;In the process of globalization it is border culture that ultimately sustains linkages, assures continuity and maintains prosperity between bounded states. In this essay we explore how border culture works, and how the conceptualization of border culture advances our understanding of how borders work. Our approach is to establish a place for the consideration of culture in the more extensive debates about border theory through a focus on the Canada-U.S. border, and how this border advances our knowledge of border culture and border theory.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

Statistical relationship between family and economy in urban, industrialized America during a period of heavy immigration. Emphasis on child labor as varying by type of family, ethnicity, and the relevant legal structures of different locales. A gradual replacement of children&#039;s wage labor by the employment of women. Statistics based on U.S. census data from 1880, 1900, and 1920. From the author: &quot;The battle over child labor fought in the United States at the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth centuries pitted emerging understandings about children&#039;s well-being against those of the rest of the family....This article explores the variations in children&#039;s and mothers&#039; labor in three very different settings: Pittsburgh, Fall River, and Baltimore between 1880 and 1920. It finds that child labor and education legislation resulted in a decrease in children&#039;s employment and increased the likelihood that mothers would take paid jobs.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

Collection of essays on migration, expatriation, and the perpetuation of national identities abroad. The historical roles played by governments in the emigrations of their peoples. Considerations of the economic and &quot;political perceptions of departure&quot; (2). From the editors: &quot;Emigration, like immigration, needs to be understood at the intersection of structural and individual agency&quot; (8). From University of Illinois Press: &quot;Exit, like entry, has helped define citizenship over the past two centuries, yet little attention has been given to the politics of emigration. How have countries impeded or facilitated people leaving? How have they perceived and regulated those who leave? What relations do they seek to maintain with their citizens abroad and why? &#039;Citizenship and Those Who Leave&#039; reverses the immigration perspective to examine how nations define themselves not just through entry but through exit as well.&quot; Translation of French original (2006).]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[A collection of 14 essays on the history of Chelmsford and Lowell, Massachusetts, from pre-incorporation to industrialization, into the middle 20th century. As the title suggests, an emphasis on the prevalence of mill work and immigrants cultures very much responsible for shaping life in this, one of New England&#039;s most productive industrialized cities. From the editor: &quot;&#039;Cotton Was King&#039; traces Lowell&#039;s history from its Indian beginnings through two centuries of the history of the town of Chelmsford and one hundred and fifty years of urban industrial history, to the present day. The history of Lowell is, in microcosm, the history of America&#039;s Industrial Revolution. The city&#039;s history is a case study in the evolution of the corporate system, the labor movement, and the role women played in the labor force. The cotton mills of Lowell provided the first opportunity for American women to leave their farms and families and earn an independent living. The city with its enormous factories and canals also served as a magnet for the first waves of immigrants. By the mid-nineteenth century the city felt the first stirrings of both the labor and feminist movements, as Lowell entrepreneurs expanded the factory system.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Essay on the divisions of power and labor in industrialized American economies - more specifically, mill towns - as transformations of earlier forms of authority in America. Uses the thought-work of Marx, Durkheim, and Weber, as well as the social critics and historians who have applied these thinkers&#039; theories to the historical present. From the author: &quot;The problem of power in nineteenth century mill towns rests on a conflict between employer absolutism and the democratic rights of the employees. The treatment of power in recent community studies has been inadequate. This is particularly true in works influenced by symbolic anthropology, where the problem is seen to have been resolved in a consensual value system. However, the persistence of conflict in strikes and disorder compels an examination of the mechanisms of domination, as well as legitimacy. To this end, the ideas of Marx and Weber offer more valuable guidance than those of Durkheim.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

From the author: &quot;This paper is an empirical examination of the processes by which a rural area of Québec originally colonised by anglophones has become increasingly francisised. While popular imagery associates French Canadian population growth in Québec with very large family sizes and with the outmigration of anglophones, no studies currently exist which attempt to measure the relative impact of each factor. In addition, other contributing demographic variables may be examined for their effects on population changes, notably the proportion of persons who marry, mortality statistics, age at marriage, and child-spacing.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Study of the off-hours lives of working-class people in the industrial city of Worcester, Massachusetts. Workers&#039; hobbies, their hangouts, and the impact of their leisure on the workplace and politics in the immigration era. A fresh social history of working-class people not confined to the work space. From Cambridge University Press: &quot;In the first comprehensive study of American working-class recreation, Professor Rosenzweig takes us to the saloons, the ethnic and church picnics, the parks and playgrounds, the amusement parks, and the movie houses where industrial workers spent their leisure hours. Focusing on the city of Worcester, Massachusetts, he describes the profound changes that popular leisure underwent. Explaining what these pastimes and amusements tell us about the nature of working-class culture and class relations in this era, he demonstrates that in order fully to understand the working class experience it is necessary to explore the realm of leisure. For what workers did in the corner saloon, the neighborhood park, the fraternal lodge hall, the amusement park, and the nickelodeon had a good deal of bearing on what happened inside the factories, the union halls, and the voting booths of America&#039;s industrial communities.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

Arguments favoring the particularly modern quality of the dually-authored interview, as compared to outside depictions of Native Americans in the local Maine literatures of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. How early 20th-century Old Town business and local government perpetuated the construction of stereotyped and antiquated Penobscot cultural categories and descriptions - aesthetically, linguistically, or in terms of work and leisure. How the literary output of the Federal Writers&#039; Project played into this sort of identity construction on a more diverse, national scale, and in what ways singular FWP interactions like those between Grady and Mitchell challenged both the national project and the local cultural categories it sometimes reinforced. What the Mitchell/Grady interview owes to the relationship out of which it was born, Grady&#039;s other interviews mostly conducted with Franco Americans in Old Town.]]></dcterms:description>

The author of this article used information gathered from English-speaking Québecers and English-language newspapers from the province. His ultimate argument is for the bill to be repealed, claiming, in the words of other opponents, that it is &quot;a repressive piece of legislation&quot; that pays scant attention to Québec&#039;s anglophone minorities.]]></dcterms:description>

From a review of &quot;Family and Population&quot; written by Lois Horton, featured in the journal, Ethnohistory: &quot;This volume of essays brings the perspective of family history to the study of urbanization and industrialization.  The authors draw on a wide variety of approaches and data sources to examine marriage, fertility, family and household composition, and life style in rapidly changing nineteenth-century America....The essays in &#039;Family and Population in Nineteenth Century America&#039; clearly demonstrate the shortcomings of other studies which draw conclusions about family and household patterns from the study of the social facts contained in aggregate data.

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Family Time and Industrial Time : The Relationship Between the Family and Work in a New England Industrial Community]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Study of the complex relationship between family dynamics and demanding mill work. Takes as its focus the industrial city of Manchester, New Hampshire, its vast mill complexes of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and the worker families that inhabited its communities and spun its wheels of industrial production. A theoretical look at family in American social history. A discussion of oral history as historical form and methodology. Originally published by Cambridge University Press. From University Press of America: &quot;The myth that industrialization broke down traditional family ties has long pervaded American society. Professor Hareven, a leading social historian, dispels this myth and illustrates how the family survived and became an active force in the modern factory. In this book, Hareven examines the multiple roles that the workers&#039; families fulfilled in facilitating their adaptation to the pressures of changing work patterns and new modes of life in an industrial city. She reconstructs family and work patterns among immigrants as well as native textile laborers over two generations during a crucial period in the transformation of American industry from the late nineteenth century....A case study based on what was the world&#039;s largest textile plant - the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company in Manchester, New Hampshire - the book integrates a wide array of documentary evidence with oral testimony. It examines the lives of real people - the way they acted, the way they perceived their lives, and the kinds of decisions they made when pacing their lives in relation to the demands of the industrial system.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Columbia University Press: &quot;Between 1820 and 1860, tens of thousands of single women streamed from rural New England to find work in the burgeoning factory towns of the region. In &#039;Farm to Factory&#039; Thomas Dublin has selected five sets of letters in order to provide a personal view of the first generation of American women employed for wages outside their own homes. The letters he has selected provide a unique perspective on early industrial capitalism and its effects on women.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

Although the modernization of Québec society and the redefinition of Franco-American ethnicity contributed initially to the disappearance of relations between the two, a post-Revolution Tranquille perspective brings new possibilities for interaction. Moreover, scrutiny of the experience of French Canadians on this continent opens the door to an understanding of Québec&#039;s identity based upon the Americanite of its culture.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

For too long, Franco-Americans have remained the &#039;forgotten Americans.&#039; This study seeks to help remedy this unfortunate oversight. &#039;Franco-Americans in the Civil War Era&#039; is the first booklet in a bilingual series called &#039;Études sur l&#039;histoire des relations canado-américaines/Studies in the History of Canadian-American Relations&#039; that explores various aspects of the historical relationship between Canada and the United States. The series&#039; goal is to provide the reader with a more holistic understanding of Canadian and American history.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the members of the Vermont Advisory Committee: &quot;The report presents an historic overview of the French-Canadian presence in Vermont over the past 300 years, a discussion of the size of the State&#039;s Franco-American population, and the different definitions and techniques used in identifying Franco-Americans. In the chapter on Status, data are presented which demonstrate statistical disparities between Franco-Americans and the Anglo population in education and employment. Societal attitudes reflected in scholarly works and in fiction are surveyed as well.  Franco-Americans have been the victims of anti-Catholic, anti-foreign sentiment in the past, and of negative stereotyping in much of the 20th century.  To determine whether these attitudes result in actions (discrimination), which in turn result in the observed disparities, is a formidable process, requiring additional historical research and analyses of educational and employment practices. Through this report, the advisory committee hopes to identify directions for future study.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Oxford University Press: &quot;The canon of French literature has undergone substantial transformation in recent years and francophone literature is now an increasingly important element in French literature courses. This study introduces the diverse literatures from the numerous French-speaking areas around the world, including Africa, French Canada, and both the Caribbean and Indian Ocean Creole islands, among others. Moving region by region, Jack details the ways in which the most important authors establish a post-colonial and linguistically and culturally unique literary tradition while they subvert--through rewriting, parody, and pastiche--the established French literary tradition. More importantly, she suggests a new critical approach for understanding these various French-speaking cultures and, consequently, the French culture which they recast and subvert.&quot; ]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Overview of the French Canadian presence in the Great Lakes Region - from the forests of the seventeenth century to the industrial landscapes of the nineteenth and twentieth. Migration waves and community developments in this region, particularly in Michigan, over hundreds of years. From Michigan State University Press: &quot;As the first European settlers in Michigan, the French Canadians left an indelible mark on the place names and early settlement patterns of the Great Lakes State. Because of its importance in the fur trade, many French Canadians migrated to Michigan, settling primarily along the Detroit- Illinois trade route, and throughout the fur trade avenues of the Straits of Mackinac. When the British conquered New France in 1763, most Europeans in Michigan were Francophones. John DuLong explores the history and influence of these early French Canadians, and traces, as well, the successive 19th- and 20th-century waves of industrial migration from Quebec, creating new communities outside the old fur trade routes of their ancestors.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Frenchmen into Peasants: Modernity and Tradition in the Peopling of French Canada]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[History text on the later migrations of the French to Atlantic Canada, written by the Director of the French Institute at Assumption College in Worcester, Massachusetts. From Harvard University Press: &quot;In unprecedented detail, Leslie Choquette narrates the peopling of French Canada across the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the lesser known colonial phase of French migration. Drawing on French and Canadian archives, she carefully traces the precise origins of individual immigrants, describing them by gender, class, occupation, region, religion, age, and date of departure. Her archival work is impressive: of the more than 30,000 emigrants who embarked for Quebec and the Maritimes during the French Regime, nearly 16,000 are chronicled here....In considering the pattern of emigration in the context of migration history, Choquette shows that, in many ways, the movement toward Canada occurred as a by-product of other, perennial movements, such as the rural exodus or interurban labor migrations. Overall, emigrants to Canada belonged to an outwardly turned and mobile sector of French society, and their migration took place during a phase of vigorous Atlantic expansion. They crossed the ocean to establish a subsistence economy and peasant society, traces of which lingered on into the twentieth century. Because Choquette looks at the entire history of French migration to Canada--its social and economic aspects as well as its place in the larger history of migration--her work makes a remarkable contribution in the field of immigration history.&quot; <br />

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;The increased participation of women in the paid labor force in the 20th-century United States has been marked by a transition from an era of &#039;working daughters&#039; to one of &#039;working mothers.&#039; Using data from a New England industrial community, I trace the connection between this transition and the growth and decline of the textile industry, the incorporation of immigrants into a hierarchical production process, and family strategies for allocating productive and reproductive labor. While the era of working daughters left the allocation of reproductive labor (housework and child care) intact, the wage work of recent immigrant mothers has had a more profound impact on families by reallocating some of &#039;women&#039;s work.&#039; Nevertheless, many families have continued to maintain an ideology that values the husband&#039;s authority, emphasizes respect for parents, and stresses differences between men and women, all of these in the face of considerable changes in actual behavior.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

Higher self-concept scores were found on three subscales of the Self-Appraisal Inventory (SAI) for children with two Anglo parents and lowest scores for children of mixed ethnic parentage.

Cette saignée démographique aurait pu contribuer à  l&#039;établissement d&#039;une société francophone vigoureuse et dynamique aux États-Unis. Mais, au milieu des années 1970, le dominicain Thomas-Marie Landry signera l&#039;acte de déciès de ce rêve pieux tandis que les élites franco-américaines considéreront cette tentative comme un échec. Toutefois, pour ceux qui ont choisi de s&#039;installer aux États-Unis d&#039;abord et avant tout pour améliorer leur sort et celui de leurs enfants, l&#039;anglicisation et l&#039;assimilation apparaissent non comme un échec, mais comme une réussite.

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Immigrant City : Lawrence, Massachusetts, 1845-1921]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[A history of the city of Lawrence, Massachusetts, as a site of mass industrialization, diverse immigration, and unique dynamics of class and ethnicity around the turn of the 20th century. From UNC Press: &quot;The violence and radicalism connected with the Industrial Workers of the World textile strike of 1912 in Lawrence, Massachusetts, left the popular impression that Lawrence was a slum-ridden city inhabited by un-American revolutionaries. &#039;Immigrant City&#039; is a study of Lawrence which reveals that the city was far different....The population of Lawrence was almost completely immigrant in nature; in 1910, 90 per cent of its people were either first or second generation Americans, and they represented nearly every nation in the world. The period covered by the book--1845 through 1921--is the great middle period of American immigration, which began with the Irish Famine and ended with the Quota Law of 1921. While &#039;Immigrant City&#039; concentrates on one American city, it reveals much about American immigration in general and demonstrates clearly that, in spite of the poverty that most immigrants fought, life for the foreign-born in America was not as grim as some writers have suggested.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

Construit autour d&#039;une source originale  les brochures de propagande parues en Grande-Bretagne, dans certains pays d&#039;Europe conti­nentale, au Canada, au Québec, aux États-Unis, en Afrique du Sud, en Australie et en Nouvelle-Zélande , l&#039;ouvrage passe en revue les discours qui, pendant plus d&#039;un siiècle, ont accompagné la conquête des terres neuves. Non seulement il en révièle le contenu, mais il en analyse aussi les procédés, pour en faire un objet de comparaison avec le discours qué­bécois de colonisation et en exposer les particularités.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[French heritage travel and resource guide to New York state, divided by region and described by town and city. From the foreword to the text: &quot;Continuing the tradition begun in the 17th century, French and Canadian ties flourish in New York which attracts businesses and commerce from Canada, its largest trading partner, as well as from France. This guide begins to tell the story of the memorable but half-forgotten chapters of New York State&#039;s French history which form the backdrop for today&#039;s ties with France and Canada. It was made possible through a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities to the Franco-American and Quebec Heritage Series at the State University of New York at Albany.&quot; ]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[An essay in exploration of Jack Kerouac&#039;s French-Canadianness in twentieth-century America. How digging into this particular ethnicity, time, and place shapes how one considers Kerouac&#039;s late-life ideas about race, his relationship with religion, or the stylings of his writing. Blaise considers Kerouac alongside other fiction writers (William Faulkner, Theodore Dreiser, William Saroyan, Thomas Wolfe)  that, to Blaise, have engaged their fiction in similar conversations with both sentimentality and American diversity. From the author of &quot;I Had a Father: A Post-Modern Autobiography&quot; and &quot;Lunar Attractions.&quot; Also published in &quot;Selected Essays&quot; by Clark Blaise (Emeryville, Ontario: Biblioasis, 2008).]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Adapté d&#039;une plus longe forme (1988). D&#039;Erudit: &quot;Le présent article a pour sujet la genièse d&#039;une communauté canadienne-française en Nouvelle-Angleterre, celle de Lewiston, Maine, avant 1880. L&#039;auteur décrit d&#039;abord la localité à  la veille de l&#039;arrivée des premiers Canadiens français en I860, s&#039;attardant plus particuliièrement aux bouleversements causés par la Révolution industrielle, qui fit de Lewiston un des plus importants centres textiles des États-Unis. Il explique ensuite la nature des migrations canadiennes-françaises au 19e siiècle, et le rôle de premier plan qu&#039;y jouaient la famille et la parenté. De fait, la famille était la cellule de base de la communauté ethnique en formation. L&#039;économie familiale caractérisait les ménages nucléaires et se tissièrent entre ceux-ci et les manufactures de coton des liens étroits et complexes. La parenté aussi avait des fonctions économiques, sociales et psychologiques, facilitant l&#039;adaptation des migrants dans leur nouveau milieu, un milieu ù les conditions d&#039;existence étaient triès précaires. De cette masse de paysans devenu ouvriers émergea une petite-bourgeoisie composée d&#039;hommes d&#039;affaires, de professionnels et de prêtres. Ces hommes utilisièrent leur pouvoir pour intensifier le sentiment religieux de leurs coreligionnaires et pour tenter d&#039;instiller en eux l&#039;idéologie de la survivance culturelle. Certains prirent leur distance de la masse des migrants, alors que d&#039;autres, le curé et les professionnels notamment, travaillièrent à  la création d&#039;un réseau institutionnel centré sur la paroisse, contribuant ainsi thnique sur des fondations solides et à  transformer les migrants en immigrants.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

Particular attention is paid to the percentage of federal employee positions that, before unilingual, are now slated and anticipated to be held by bilingual people.

Some distinction is made between what the author terms the &quot;personality&quot; and the &quot;territorial&quot; principles of bilingualism.]]></dcterms:description>

Since the enactment of the Bilingual Education Act, the U.S. Office of Education has sponsored programs to help low achieving students with little or no command of English by teaching reading, math, and other subjects in the native language. Although not a failure, this approach does not demonstrate that it makes a difference in terms of student achievement, or acquisition of English....&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

From the author: &quot;Canada is an ideal country in which to study the progress of language transfer and other factors affecting minority survival, because the decennial census includes three questions on language and one on ethnic origin. From census data, it will be shown that two-thirds of Canada&#039;s population live in English dominated regions, within which minorities of all other languages are dwindling through assimilation, but that there is also a French Canada, within which it is the use of the English language that is declining. The two languages co-exist only within a narrow bilingual belt.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>
