    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Death and Rebirth of the American Mill Town]]></dcterms:title>
    <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>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[An Exploration into the Health and Illness Beliefs of a Franco-American Community : The Description of a Clinical Reality ]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;The purpose of this thesis was to explore and describe the health and illness beliefs of a Franco-American community in Northern Maine. A major assumption of this study was that culture impacts all aspects of life and therefore determines how we define health and illness.  The ethnographic inquiry provided an exhaustive description of health and illness experiences of selected members within the community and, through contextual analysis, allowed inductive identification of patterns within the group. Major themes emerged in the areas of health beliefs (functional and subjective health definitions), health behaviors (approach and avoidance behaviors), illness beliefs (susceptibilities and vulnerabilities), illness behaviors (home-care and cues to action) and clinical reality. The subsequent ethnographic record provided a rich description of the health and illness beliefs of a Franco-American community and allowed a glimpse into the clinical reality shared by its members.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;This thesis explains and analyzes the phenomenon of seasonal, long-term winter travel to Florida, travelers that South Floridians have called &#039;snowbirds.&#039; It demonstrates what pushed and pulled [Canadian and American] snowbirds to Florida, analyzes their journey south, their settlement patterns and housing choices, their tendency to congregate together, the forms of their sociability. It mostly defines snowbirds as migrants who, down South, build communities of kindred spirits. In the fragmented built landscape of 20th-century Florida, the congregation of snowbirds produced unique forms of socialization and, we argue, of community. These unique settlements have uniquely influenced Floridians&#039; debates about their own community-building issue, while playing a part in Northerners&#039; views about Florida, the South, the North, the United States and Canada.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[A photo-history of the cities of the Saco River Valley in southern Maine. A heavily researched and crafted exhibition of landscapes from colonization to contemporary times, &#039;The Cities on the Saco&#039; weaves a storytelling tapestry of Saco, Biddeford, and the Old Orchard regions that should be held dearly by their diverse coastal communities. From the text: &quot;Here are the many scenes which our ancestors saw but, equally important, the images (economic, social, political) which Saco, Biddeford, and Old Orchard became. Here one catches the beauty of stately mansions and churches as a counterpoint to some of the more squalid social and industrial conditions in which lower classes lived. The spirit of the times, whether rural in the early two centuries or urban during the past hundred years, may be found here, too.... Not only is this a collection of enormously insightful photographs, it is the first comprehensive local history in a hundred years...&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

Studies measure age, sex, and ethnic heritage factors and present data and observations based on these three categories.

From the authors: &quot;The research reported here was designed to investigate grade, sex, and ethnic background differences in self-concept of 301 kindergarten and first grade children from Anglo, Franco-American, and mixed parentage families. 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. No sex differences were found and first graders scored higher than kindergarteners on the General Scale. Implications for research and education are discussed.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

After its establishment as a town in 1826, Lowell was celebrated for its innovative textile technology and its unique workforce of young Yankee farm women. Its mills helped transform American life with high-volume mechanized manufacturing, the rise of the corporation, and the growth of an urban working class. Lowell National Historical Park preserves many scenes of the city&#039;s industrial past. This book is both an illustrated account of the changing fortunes of Lowell&#039;s industry and its working people and a guide to surviving sites.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[1971 paper presented at the fifth annual TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) Meeting in New Orleans, Louisiana. Abstract from the text: &quot;Bilingual programs should focus on promoting psychosocial growth rather than language growth. Risk taking, change, and creativity should characterize the approach to bilingual education. Traditional ideas about language learning may not be suitable. It is not necessarily true that children cannot learn a second language unless it is taught to them. The behavioristic, audiolingual approach may not be the best for the bilingual child. Bilingual educators should not be overly concerned about the orthodoxy of their methods. The corrective approach to language teaching may not be the most appropriate one for the young bilingual child.  Promoting psychosocial growth involves educating teachers and generating community involvement. The students must be given the basic tools to manage their own growth in two languages at an early age.&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[The Run of the Mill : A Pictorial Narrative of the Expansion, Dominion, Decline, and Enduring Impact of the New England Textile Industry]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[A chronicle of centuries of labor in black and white photographs. Historical and modern perspectives on mills, industrial towns, and workers in New England from the earliest industrialization period to the 1970s. From the inside flap: &quot;The full force of American capitalism was first released through the creation, consolidation, and incredible profitability of the New England textile industry. It was along the energetic waterways of the Northeast that the Industrial Revolution cut its teeth, there that real manufacturing initially occurred, that goods, produced on native soil, were first distributed in substantial quantities. There, in short, that the modern corporation was conceived. This fascinating, generously illustrated and extensively documented study presents the full scope of that phenomenon by concentrating on its single most powerful and successful manifestation: the textile mill. This was America&#039;s first integrated history, so immense in its concentration that in 1832, of 106 manufacturing concerns in the United States with assets of over $100,000, a full 88 were listed as textile companies.... Dunwell&#039;s survey is divided into two sections. The first, replete with 250 photographs and sketches from a wide variety of sources, gives an historical overview, a concentrated history of the textile mill in New England from the early developments in native technology to the final abandonment of the region. The second examines the living remnants of the industry...Here he presents the people who are still working in the mills...&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>

On constate que le nombre d&#039;emprunts à  l&#039;anglais dans le discours français est comparable à  plusieurs points de vue à  celui d&#039;autres communautés francophones minoritaires en Amérique du Nord, soit en général moins de 1%. De plus, on observe un certain degré de variation sociologique, les hommes empruntant davantage que les femmes, tout comme les plus a?gés par rapport aux plus jeunes. Quoique triès limitée, cette analyse exploratoire indique que des perceptions et des jugements parfois subjectifs demandent une étude plus approfondie et à  partir de données nombreuses et représentatives.&quot; ]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Edwards: &quot;A French-English bilingual education programme in Northern Vermont was studied to investigate its effects upon the French-speaking children. Data was presented showing the decline in French usage in the area, and the gradual assimilation of the French families into the American mainstream. Against this background, the program was seen to have helped the French pupils in academic performance compared both with their English schoolmates and with pre-programme French children. It was also shown that the programme did not have much impact outside the schools upon language usage or maintenance nor, it was argued, would this have been a realistic aim. However, in the terms ot the Act under which the programme operated, the programme was successtul - a considerable achievement in view of the generally bleak record of intervention programmes.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Cotton Was King : A History of Lowell, Massachusetts]]></dcterms:title>
    <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>

From ERIC: &quot;This book presents a discussion paper of policy alternatives for bilingual-bicultural education. It also includes two critiques of the paper. 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>

    <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:description><![CDATA[Examination of immigrant Catholic influences on the traditions of Catholicism in the United States. A collection of largely biographical segments dedicated to certain influential, thought-provoking, and paradigm-shifting American Catholics from the middle of the twentieth century. The influence of these thinkers on a country not without skeptics or critics of Roman Catholicism. From UNC Press: &quot;James Fisher argues that Catholic culture was transformed when products of the &#039;immigrant church,&#039; largely inspired by converts like Dorothy Day, launched a variety of spiritual, communitarian, and literary experiments. He also explores the life and works of Thomas A. Dooley and Jack Kerouac to show that their experiences signaled a new Catholic appreciation of the American tradition of creative freedom.&quot; Contains the following chapters: &quot;The Conversion of Dorothy Day&quot; &quot;Fools for Christ&quot; : Dorothy Day and the Catholic Worker movement, 1933-1949 The Catholic workers and Catholic culture, 1933-1949 The limits of personalism : &quot;Integrity&quot; and the Marycrest Community, 1946-1956 Thomas A. Dooley and the romance of Catholic anticommunism A Catholic errand in the wilderness : Tom Dooley in Laos and America, 1956-1961 Jack Kerouac and Thomas Merton, the last Catholic romantics.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Tool of Acculturation, Outil de Survivance : Education of French Canadians in Holyoke, Massachusetts, 1880-1920 ]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Fliss: &quot;Motivated to ensure &#039;la survivance,&#039; the survival of their religion, language, and culture, French-Canadian immigrants established an extensive private Catholic education system ranging from parish elementary and high schools to boarding schools and colleges in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century New England. Of these education levels, parish schools reached the largest number of French-Canadian children. In Holyoke, Massachusetts, French-Canadian survivance efforts centered on the education of their children in French-Canadian parish schools however, the parish school performed a dual role for the French Canadians in the context of their cultural transition in New England. French-Canadian culture pervaded the school day with French as a language of instruction, sisters from French-Canadian orders as teachers, religion and Canadian history in the curriculum, and the observance of traditional cultural customs and celebrations. The French-Canadian immigrant community did not anticipate the schools&#039; second role, that of aiding the acculturation of their children into American society. Although these roles seem to be at cross-purposes, they co-existed in New England until the second half of the twentieth century with the weakening of French-Canadian identity, the shortage of teaching sisters, and the closing of ethnic parish schools. The bilingual and bicultural character of the school day, influenced by both assimilation and survivance strategies, contributed to the development of a Franco-American population in Holyoke....&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[From French Canadian to Franco-American : Cultural Survival and Reinvention of Nationality in a Connecticut Yankee Town, 1855-1895 ]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Fluet: &quot;This dissertation...focuses on the immigrant French Canadians who maintained their cultural identity and embraced American nationality in the Connecticut Yankee town of Putnam in the period of 1855-1895. Few community studies exist for Connecticut in this period of rapid change and industrialization. Northeastern Connecticut, which witnessed the disappearance of Yankee homogeneity, remains unexamined. Putnam, with its large immigrant population, is representative of the area, and of many other smaller mill towns in the northeastern United States, and permits a glimpse of the process whereby French Canadians became Franco-Americans....Three questions drive the inquiry. The first question involves overarching issues of change and inherent community tensions and problems: how did Putnam move from a Connecticut Yankee town to a diverse city? Second, how did the immigrant French Canadians maintain their mentality of la survivance while participating in debates critical to the development of the Putnam community? Third, how did the French Canadian presence in Putnam help to broaden the very meaning of what it meant to be American in the mind of the community?&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

The discussion is based on interviews with 275 speakers from eight communities: Van Buren, Waterville, and Biddeford, Maine, Berlin, New Hampshire, Southbridge and Gardner, Massachusetts, Bristol, Connecticut, and Woonsocket, Rhode Island. Our analysis confirms that French has not been transmitted to the youngest generations and that its domains of use are highly restricted. Nevertheless, the majority of speakers still use the language often (18%) if not daily (44%). Our findings suggest that French still plays a central role in the lives of its speakers despite their decreasing numbers.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[L&#039;identité franco-américaine : tendances actuelles dans le sud de la Nouvelle-Angleterre]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[De Fox, Fortin, Martin, et Stelling: &quot;Le terme «franco-américain» s&#039;emploie pour désigner les immigrants canadiens arrivés au nord-est des États-Unis pendant une période s&#039;étalant de 1840 à  1930. Catholiques et francophones, ils y ont établi des communautés resserrées et un réseau d&#039;institutions religieuses, scolaires et sociales afin de maintenir leur religion, leur langue, et leur mode de vie traditionnel. Cependant, l&#039;évolution rapide qu&#039;a connue ce groupe depuis les soixante derniières années a déclenché un débat sur sa définition : comment les Franco-Américains se caractérisent-ils actuellement? Partagent-ils encore une identité commune? La présente étude cherche à  contribuer à  la discussion en se servant de témoignages oraux provenant d&#039;entretiens sociolinguistiques réalisés aupriès de 130 habitants de quatre villes: Woonsocket (Rhode Island), Southbridge et Gardner (Massachussetts) et Bristol (Connecticut). Deux analyses quantitatives de ces données nous permettent d&#039;obtenir une vue d&#039;ensemble de la question identitaire. Puis, nous nous penchons sur les particularités de chaque communauté dans une série d&#039;analyses qualitatives. La synthièse de ces différentes analyses nous permet de constater que les quatre communautés connaissent un processus d&#039;assimilation dont le rythme et les caractéristiques diffièrent considérablement d&#039;une communauté à  l&#039;autre. Même si un grand nombre d&#039;entre-eux utilisent toujours l&#039;étiquette franco-américaine pour se décrire, les Franco-Américains se limitent désormais à  une conception identitaire qui évolue au sein de leur propre communauté sans référence à  une culture supra-communautaire.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Manuel du Professeur pour introduire les études Franco-Américaines]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Freeman and Pelletier&#039;s self-proclaimed &quot;manuel&quot; (handbook) seeks to validate Franco-American Studies as a legitimate academic discipline, and to insert this discipline into the broader field of American Cultural Studies. In 284 pages, the authors suggest lesson plans for the construction of relevant curricula, particular topics of study on Franco-America, and a rationale for the inclusion of a body of Franco-American knowledge in the fabric of a social studies education for youth and adults alike. Acknowledging the plain lack of academic materials, Freeman and Pelletier not only offer an outline for students to create their own genealogies, but also encourage students to engage their Franco communities, to utilize old and build new living resources for multiculturalism in theory and practice. The handbook concludes with a bibliography of texts and an index of local people and places that might function as resources for Franco-American studies both in- and outside of the classroom. From the text:  &quot;This handbook was produced by the Canadian/Franco-American Studies Project of the University of Maine at Orono for the use of teachers in elementary and secondary schools and in adult education.  Its purpose is to achieve more widespread awareness and understanding of the Franco-American presence in New England by offering teaching plans and strategies for incorporating materials designed for that purpose into the regular courses of study within the humanities curriculum.We feel that the contributions of Franco-Americans to the development of their communities, their states, and their country has been one of the nation&#039;s best-kept secrets.  We also feel that exploring these areas can be a source of pride for members of the Franco-American communities and lead students of other backgrounds to a better understanding of our multi-ethnic society.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[La genièse d&#039;une communauté canadienne-française en Nouvelle-Angleterre : Lewiston, Maine, 1800-1880]]></dcterms:title>
    <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>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Short personal essay written by a journalist from Maine.  Reflections on leaving Maine early in life, eventually for New York City, and returning for his retirement. His early commitment to mastering English in spite of his home French, and both the personal and the more general, historical issues that this choice and language loss raised for him upon his return. Arguments bolstered by events surrounding the mispronunciation of his French name, the cultural insensitivity he still finds in his home state, and the attempts of others to reckon with discrimination toward French cultures in Maine. First published serially in Le FAROG Forum , in three parts. Later included in a 1970s collection of materials entitled, &quot;Franco American Resources in Education&quot; developed by Claire Bolduc. As part of this collection, the essay is followed by six discussion questions related to issues raised by the author.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[45 years of labor history from the textile mills of Woonsocket, Rhode Island. The relationships between the World Wars, American nationalism, and the attitudes of working-class, largely immigrant New Englanders in the first half of the twentieth century. Republished in 2002 by Princeton University Press with a new preface from the author. From Princeton University Press: &quot;In this classic interpretation of the 1930s rise of industrial unionism, Gary Gerstle challenges the popular historical notion that American workers&#039; embrace of &#039;Americanism&#039; and other patriotic sentiments in the post-World War I years indicated their fundamental political conservatism. He argues that Americanism was a complex, even contradictory, language of nationalism that lent itself to a wide variety of ideological constructions in the years between World War I and the onset of the Cold War. Using the rich and textured material left behind by New England&#039;s most powerful textile union--the Independent Textile Union of Woonsocket, Rhode Island--Gerstle uncovers for the first time a more varied and more radical working-class discourse.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;In this essay, I test the Crièvecoeurian myth of Americanization against the rich body of work produced by historians and other students of European immigration in the twentieth century. The myth consists of four distinct claims: first, that European immigrants wanted to shed their Old World ways and to become American, second, that Americanization was quick and easy because the immigrants found no significant obstacles thrown in their path, third, that Americanization &#039;melted&#039; the immigrants into a single race, culture, or nation, unvarying across space and time, and fourth, that immigrants experienced Americanization as emancipation from servitude, deference, poverty, and other Old World constraints....I focus on literature generated since World War I on European immigration from 1880 to 1920, the era of the so-called new immigrants.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Article presenting data on voting patterns in selected New England towns that indicate, in a general sense, connections between ethnic origin and voting behaviors in the early 21st century. Interpretations of statistical models that indicate the continuing relevance of white ethnic group identification to electoral politics and community formation in New England. Comparison of historical white ethnic groups in the United States to new immigrant populations. Sociological research on assimilation in the United States as related to economic class and political behavior. From the authors: &quot;By examining the persistent effect of white ethnicity on political behavior, we seek to broaden our understanding of ethnic political development and voting. We begin our inspection by discussing the past role and prominence of white ethnicity. We then juxtapose these historic assessments of ethnic persistence and decline with the patterns observable by our empirical analysis of the effect of white ethnicity on presidential politics in over 1500 towns in six New England states.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Shantytowns in the United States, 1820-1890]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;This dissertation adds a missing piece to the history of the American working class by documenting an overlooked category of low-income housing and the ways in which these self-reliant communities were assigned cultural meanings at odds with their physical form. Using sources that range from photographs and oil paintings to novels and sheet music, the dissertation traces the shanty house type from frontier homesteads to urban shantytowns in turn-of-the-century New York and Brooklyn. It also examines their evolving cultural construction. Presented as domestic by their working-poor builders, shantytowns were nonetheless perceived as degraded by middle-class observers. This had public policy consequences, as shantytowns were razed and outlawed during the last decades of the nineteenth century.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[An essay describing France&#039;s Alliance Francaise, an internationally established cultural institution dedicated to promoting the French language and fostering dialogue with, about, and around French culture throughout the world. A history of the Alliance in the United States, with particular emphasis on its early 20th-century iterations, and on both the &quot;colonial&quot; and &quot;republican&quot; qualities its mission once embodied (229, 233). The Alliance&#039;s engagement with different Franco American communities, especially those in New England. From the author: &quot;By giving voice to different constituencies within the French diasporic family, and by creating spaces for cultural exchange, the Alliance has helped to define the contours of New World Francophone identities&quot; (abstract). Includes the segments, &quot;French republicanism at work,&quot; &quot;The Alliance Francaise and Franco-America,&quot; and &quot;The Alliance Francaise and la francophonie.&quot; From the author: &quot;The Alliance Française is in many respects an intermediary between French America&#039;s past and present&quot; (240).]]></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[An exploration of the characteristics of cultural survival within the Franco American community in the town of Biddeford, Maine in the 20th century. From the introduction: &quot;In this study I will 1) analyze the fundamental nature of the experiment in survival that the Franco-Americans themselves call &#039;la survivance&#039; , 2) investigate the historical, cultural, and social origins of &#039;la survivance&#039; in French-Canadian culture,  3) determine the extent to which the Franco-Americans in New England constitute a deviation from the norm in respect to assimilation into American culture,  4) determine the factors that caused deviation from the norm.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

At the turn of the century French Canadians became known as Franco-Americans; they tried to maintain their native language and traditions as American citizens in a New England urban industrial setting....Holyoke&#039;s history and its unique character are considered in terms of their effects on the French Canadian settlers....We will attempt to examine Holyoke&#039;s French cultural and literary life in the framework of French Canadian life in New England through a general consideration of the French Canadian immigration, the role of the parish, the schools, the family, and societies.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

Laws regarding the private status of ethnicity-based social clubs allow such clubs to limit their membership based on a number of unique characteristics - including sex.]]></dcterms:description>

Mais c&#039;est autre chose de poser en principe absolu que les Franco-Americains, du fait qu&#039;ils sont d&#039;origine française, doivent être desservis en français....Il est donc souverainement important de prendre les choses telles qu&#039;elles sont, car là  seulement est la vérité....Ce que nous cherchons, vous et moi, dans cette discussion de la question franco-américaine, c&#039;est la vérité, sachant que la vérité vraie peut seule nous rendre libres de l&#039;erreur...&quot;(7-9).]]></dcterms:description>

The shells of its awesome mills still extend for two miles along the Merrimack River in Manchester, New Hampshire. Never before have we known so vividly what it was like to live a life in the closed world of a single gigantic industrial entity, from the first moment a child set foot in a mill carrying his father&#039;s or mother&#039;s lunchpail to the moment he retired or was laid off 60 years later.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <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>

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. Their greatest strength is the illumination of the complexities of human behavior and the importance of factors which can only be discovered by examining smaller units of social organization.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Massachusetts politics during fifteen years within the industrial and early immigration periods of the late 19th century. From Harmond: &quot;As this study seeks to show, Massachusetts confronted a dual set of challenges in the post-Reconstruction era.  In the first place, the Irish-Americans and workingmen, provoked by their marginal status, united in a political revolt to obtain greater recognition and benefits for themselves.  From 1878 to 1883 this ethnic-labor insurrection, led by Benjamin F. Butler, was the focus of Massachusetts politics....Secondly, the accelerated tempo of industrial and technological change spawnwed a spirirt of on-rushing materialism which threatened the Commonwealth&#039;s traditional business and political mores.  Investors in the newly-developed water gas process, and the electric trolley, for example, resorted to extensive lobbying to secure favors from the legislature.  One result was a series of scandals in the middle and later 1880s endangering the state&#039;s relatively high level of public morality....On the whole, Massachusetts met these challenges well. Under the leadership of members of the Yankee establishment, a conservative, but realistic, attempt was made to accomodate the needs of a new day to the Bay State&#039;s intellectual and political heritage.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The institution of town meeting, the beauty of the landscape, and the enduring qualities of the architecture all give the New England town the power to shape the identity of its inhabitants—in a good way. This premise is put on trial—and to a vote—in Whisper My Name, the third novel in Hebert&#039;s Darby Chronicles.The story unfolds as seen through the eyes of three men: the reporter Roland LaChance, the farmer Avalon Hillary, and the founder of a land trust, Raphael &quot;Reggie&quot; Salmon. Magnus Mall, a national corporation, wants to buy the Hillary farm and transform the property into a mall to serve western New Hampshire and eastern Vermont. The aging Hillary is torn between the traditions of his family and &quot;the thought of the money.&quot; LaChance is not only chasing down leads in his reportage on the mall—he&#039;s chasing down the story behind his own origins. Along the way he falls in love with Sheila &quot;Soapy&quot; Rayno, an aphasic girl from Darby whose origins are equally mysterious. As usual, the Jordan clan plays a pivotal role in this rousing tale of greed, power, and lust.This third novel in the Darby Chronicles will appeal to anyone interested in the clash of cultures in small-town America.]]></dcterms:description>

More broadly, I argue that codeswitching must be understood in terms of individual communicative repertoires and community speech economies, particularly as these are tied to a political economic analysis of the relationship between the availability and use of linguistic varieties, on the one hand, and the production and distribution of symbolic and material resources on the other.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Huggins: &quot;This thesis traces the history of two immigrant families from the mid-1800&#039;s through the mid-1900&#039;s. The social and economic factors of Germany and French Québec are studied to determine reasons for the movement of people from these countries to the United States during the 1800&#039;s. Family histories are used to follow the author&#039;s ancestors from their arrival through the following one hundred years....The narrative style is used to record family stories and reactions to historical events. The major contribution of this thesis is its furthering of the understanding of the impact of these two immigrant groups on America. Also the assimilation of Germans and French Canadians into American society is demonstrated.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

Brief references to French Creole and New England Franco-American French. From the author: &quot;The purpose of this study is to discuss the structure of the consonant system of Canadian French, especially in its more archaic (i.e., less assimilated to the standard language) form, in order to show that a seemingly complex set of allophonic and phonemic developments, of different origins, bear witness to a single tendency toward greater economy of distinctive features in the phonological system.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

A comparative sociological study in how ethnicity impacts community structures and interrelations in Canada. How the phenomena of dual social organizations divided along ethnic lines relate to industry, town economics, and politics. Comments on observable forms of inter-communal relations and the status of inter-ethnic interaction in the studied town. Presents a local case in a national, Canadian context, with reference to notions of acculturation and histories of group conflict. From the author: &quot;The argument is that interethnic relations can be considered from the perspective of social organization and/or interorganizational relations because the characteristics of organized ethnic collectivities are crucial to the understanding of intergroup relations&quot; (iii).]]></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[Documentary film on multilingual and multicultural education in the United States. The personal, social, and political implications of teaching in languages other than English, and the complex realities of immigrant families&#039; hopes for their children&#039;s education. Set in California, in the context of various states considering &quot;English only&quot; legislation. Considers the developmental benefits of multilingual youth education. From PatchWork Productions: &quot;In a time where 31 states have passed English Only initiatives, one urban school district is exploring the provocative notion that speaking a foreign language can be a national asset. We follow four diverse students and their families as they encounter the challenges and delights of becoming fluent in two languages. As we witness their journey, we see how speaking more than one language changes them, their families, their communities, and maybe even the world.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[French is literally everywhere - in our history and values, in our families, and in our neighborhoods and communities, from the croissant or macaron in our local café or bistro to family and place names across the country. These are the stories of French language and Francophone culture in the US, but, even more importantly, the stories of Franco-Americans - ranging from descendants of the earliest French explorers and French-Canadian immigrants to the newest arrivals in the US from throughout the Francophone world. This book is of interest to all of us, whatever our background, as the experience of French language and Francophone culture in the US has similarities to and intersects with the many languages and cultures that have contributed to the American experience]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Function and impact of Maine Learning Results educational plan in elementary schools of rural Maine. Includes a segment on Walters School in the St. John Valley, and discusses its elementary French language program as it becomes incorporated in MLR methods. From the author: &quot;Many rural educators and researchers have not embraced standards-based reform warmly. Some are wary of standards driving out unique and locally responsive curriculum. Others cast standards as one more example of a reform largely geared toward urban and suburban schools but foisted on rural schools regardless of applicability. These arguments are mostly rhetorical. Few studies have looked at the effects ofstandards&#039; implementation on the classroom practices of rural educators. In this paper, I examine the impact ofa state standards-based reform, the Maine Learning Results, on curriculum and instruction in four rural schools. I focus on the impact that standards have on locally responsive curriculum in the schools. I suggest that state standards and locally responsive curriculum ultimately may not be as incompatible as many scholars and practitioners suggest.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Crown of Maine Productions: &quot;&#039;Greetings From Aroostook&#039; is a seventeen minute DVD featuring spectacular scenery, people and wildlife of The County set to music. The DVD includes scenes throughout the area from the Million Dollar View south of Houlton to Ramsey Ledge in The Allagash. It&#039;s narrated by Layne Longfellow, relative of the poet. It includes activities from different seasons of the year from skiing and snowmobiling to hiking and kayaking. Various cultural events are included from the Acadian Festival in The Valley to the Midsommar Festival in New Sweden, and, of course, Fort Fairfield&#039;s Potato Blossom Festival. It even has a scene of youngsters picking potatoes at harvest time. It&#039;s a wonderful reminder of life in The County - &#039;The Way Maine Used To Be,&#039; as some say. And it&#039;s a great gift idea for friends and family who live outside the area to give them a taste of home, or to entice them to visit.&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[Use My Name: Jack Kerouac&#039;s Forgotten Families]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From ECW Press: &quot;With this fascinating new book, Jim Jones debunks many of the myths surrounding the life and times of Jack Kerouac. Jones concentrates on those whose lives were most affected by Kerouac: daughter Jan Kerouac, wives Edie Parker, Joan Haverty, and Stella Sampas, as well as nephew Paul Blake Jr. &#039;Use My Name: Jack Kerouac&#039;s Forgotten Families&#039; takes its title from advice given to Jan during her second and final meeting with Jack, who encouraged her to profit from the surname she shared with the famous author of &#039;On the Road.&#039; Sadly, not one of these individuals so closely tied to Kerouac seems to have benefited from the connection, as Jones discovers in his in-depth interview with Jan. She discusses at length her 15 months as a prostitute, her own divorces, her hospitalization, and her life as an author, including a wild European book tour for [her novel] &#039;Baby Driver.&#039; Although Kerouac is one of the most &#039;biographied&#039; American writers of our time, Jones offers a new perspective on the King of the Beats and his generation, one in which formerly marginalized figures in the Kerouac storyparticularly womenbecome strong, central characters. He also exposes the cut-throat wheeling and dealing that has plagued the Kerouac estate and that continues today as the various players do battle over the legacy of one of the counterculture&#039;s biggest idols.&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>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From a publication of the Canadian Catholic Historical Association. Essay that situates the early-twentieth-century &quot;mystic stigmatic&quot; figure of Marie-Rose Ferron in a Franco American religious history. Using Ferron&#039;s biography as measure, Kaell sees the fringe cult around her, as well as her failed canonization, in contrast with the popular saintly tradition of the Canadian Thérièse of Lisieux. Kaell teases out this and other comparisons between Franco and Québécois religiosity and nationalism using Ferron&#039;s life and history. From the author: &quot;First, this paper is an examination of how a hagiographer, Onésime Boyer, worked to create a saint cult that ultimately ended in failure. Second, and more importantly, this paper uses Boyer&#039;s construction of Rose&#039;s cult to provide a window into Franco-American Catholic culture that was incorporating wider trends, like &#039;victimhood,&#039; and anchoring itself firmly in an American milieu. Finally, this paper raises a number of questions for further study, urging more comprehensive analyses of Franco-American history and religion.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

These circumstances along with an increasing appreciation of social history as a critical area of research have stimulated new quests into the complexity and ramifications of the social processes of becoming an American....This study focuses on the various processes implied in the migration and settlement of French Canadian immigrants in Manchester, New Hampshire 1875-1925....The second part of the work applies the historical research in an educational setting to test the effectiveness of case study methodology. Using the historical findings in fictionalized form, a French Canadian family is traced from its migration to Manchester through processes of acculturation and adjustment. Control and experimental groups in two secondary U.S. History classes are tested for cognitive achievement and positive attitudes toward cultural diversity.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Phonological Variables in a New England French Speech Community ]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;The first section of the present study consists of a historical survey of the Franco-American community, examining those factors, such as the existence of a network of bilingual parochial schools, which were significant for language maintenance efforts. It is observed that French/English bilingualism in New England has seriously declined in the last twenty years, and that organized attempts to provide for its survival are now limited primarily to the state of Maine. The second section of this study specifies the lexical, morphological and syntactic characteristics which distinguish New England French (NEF) from Standard French (SF), based on a corpus of written and oral documents of recent origin. The results obtained are compared with those reported in studies of Canadian French, and in earlier studies of NEF. It is shown that no structural innovations have emerged in NEF which are not also attested in Canadian and other popular varieties of French. The influence of English is primarily restricted to the borrowing of words, but the use of anglicisms is often subject to ridicule. Systematic change in NEF tends to be in the direction of convergence with SF. Synchronically, a continuum of speech style is observed, whose lower or informal levels are characterized by features shared with the French of rural Québec, and whose higher or more formal levels are characterized by corresponding features of SF....The third section consists of an analysis of the present state of the phonology of NEF, and is based on a corpus collected in interviews with six informants in Manchester, New Hampshire. Sixteen phonological rules are formulated, defining elements which distinguish NEF from SF. It is shown that some of these features are being lost as NEF incorporates standard elements. Many of these elements which are avoided in formal speech situations by speakers with more exposure to SF, however, tend to occur frequently or predominantly in less formal situations. The sixteen phonological processes are subjected to partial ordering in terms of an implicational scale, according to whether they are more or less resistant to change. It is shown that those processes which entail only superficial (phonetic) differences between NEF and SF are more likely to be retained, while those processes which entail underlying (morphophonemic) differences are more likely to be lost.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <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>

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>

Rather it is a symbol of French Canadian culture adopted during the period between the 1880s and 1930s when French valley residents were eager to assert their &quot;Franco-American&quot; identity. The Madawaska twin barn displays some affinity to American barns in Aroostook County and particularly the Yankee symbol, the connecting barn. However, its appearance is also French Canadian. The distribution of the twin barn defines an area of French Canadian and American interaction which remains distinct.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Border Culture, the Boundary Between Canada and the United States of America, and the Advancement of Borderlands Theory]]></dcterms:title>
    <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>
