How Québec literary scholarship has elevated Kerouac&#039;s prose to a level unmatched in the United States, where the author argues little attention has been paid to the influence of Kerouac&#039;s cultural and linguistic identity on his American writing.

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Chartier: &quot;The following bibliography is a personal response to a growing number of demands from colleagues wishing to become acquainted with the rapidly expanding field of French-Canadian literature. This bibliography lays no claim whatever to completeness...only a multi-volumed effort could make such a claim, given the vastness of the subject-matter. The items listed here represent only a fraction of the very best work published in the fairly recent past. The general works are the most reliable source for readers interested in the literature of the earlier period.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Roots Always Precede Routes : On the Road, through a Glass Darkly]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Critical reading of Jack Kerouac's most famous novel, "On the Road," through the lens of French mobility in America and Kerouac's Franco American cultural identity. How Kerouac's traveling characters signify and explore the "homelessness" that the article's author associates with the French Canadian and Franco American in the United States.<br /><br />From the author: "This article explores the subterranean layers of 'On the Road,' firstly, approaching them from three perspectives (the dyad routes-roots, ethnogenesis and cultural geography), and secondly, considering the novel within a larger project, the 'Road' project, which allows further insight into the genesis of the 1957 edition and of the original scroll published fifty years later. This article focuses on the relationship between space, identity, travel and nation, and attempts to offer a reading of the author’s French-Canadian and Franco-American invisible ethnicity as a guiding line to the 'On the Road' proto-versions and to the themes developed (travel, mapping the land and the quest for the father[land])."]]></dcterms:description>

An American artist's eventual return to Canada in search of an identity in the place of his father's birth and death; the father's youthful departure from Quebec to New England many years before.

Each of them is guided by enigmatic, even mystical, women as their separate journeys take them from the asbestos pits of Thetford Mines, Quebec, to the lush gardens of Miami Beach and, ultimately, back to the same destination."]]></dcterms:description>

Commentaire artistique québécois sur la relation entre l'Église catholique - principalement, les évêques catholiques - et l'assimilation franco-américaine aux États-Unis au début du 20e siècle. Représentations sévères fictifs de la hiérarchie catholique et les Irlando-Américains de la Nouvelle-Angleterre.<br /><br />De l'éditeur: "Cet album ne surprendra pas ceux qui, depuis vingt ou vingt-cinq ans, s'intéressent au sort de nos compatriotes établis aux Etats-Unis, ou - pour parler avec plus d'exactitude - de nos compatriotes établis en dehors de la province de Québec....Les dessins qui y sont groupés ne font pas autre chose que fixer quelques traits principaux de la vie catholique aux Etats-Unis."</p>]]></dcterms:description>

Like some Franco-Americans of their time, they felt acutely the loss of their ethnic group&#039;s former ties to a proud French-Canadian heritage. They learned from other movements of their own time how to go about redefining their group&#039;s identity, and the administration of the University of Maine, Orono, provided some of the material resources that the group needed in order to make it a formally established program.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

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>

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: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: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>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[De l&#039;auteur: &quot;Le territoire d&#039;étude de ce mémoire est situé dans le comté du Madawaska, au nord-ouest du Nouveau-Brunswick et dans la partie nord du comte d&#039;Aroostook Maine, c&#039;est-à -dire dans la vallée supérieure de la riviière Saint-Jean. La présente recherche concerne partculiièrement l&#039;ancien territoire de la communauté de Grande-Riviière devenu le territoire actuel des villes de Van Buren (ME) et de Saint-Léonard (N.B.) depuis l&#039;établissement de la frontiière canado-américaine entre le Nouveau-Brunswick et l&#039;Etat du Maine par le Traité Ashburton-Webster, le 9 août 1842. Apriès 1842, la population de Grande-Riviière établie sur la rive sud de la riviière Saint-Jean devient americaine et celle etablie sur la rive nord reste britannique et plus tard deviendra canadienne....La moitié de cette population acado-canadienne, culturellement homogiène, unie sur le plan politique, administratif ete économique et évoluant avant 1842, autour d&#039;une meme paroisse civile et religieuse, celle de Saint-Bruno, est maintenant rattachée aux structures américaines. Elle a depuis évolué sur les plans administratif, juridique, éducationnel et ecclésiastique selon les stalismes américains. Les deux populations, de Van Burne et de Saint-Léonard, soit américaine ou soit canadienne, ont été intégrées dans des institutions aux idéologies statales quelque peu différentes. Par ce fait, les populations des deux villes doivent avoir aujourd&#039;hui des habitudes de vie et des comportements différents, un sens des valeurs particulier et appartenir à  un monde symbolique distinct.&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>

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>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Kanzler: &quot;The Black History movement of the 1960s, the White Ethnic awareness of the 1970s and current developments in the Hispanic and Asian communities throughout the United States emphasize the significance of ethnicity as a major factor in the analysis of American nationality. 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[La migration des Canadiens français vers le Michigan, 1840-1914 : leur contribution au développement socioéconomique de la région]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Ce texte a devenu le livre &quot;Le Canadiens français du Michigan&quot; (2000), ou &quot;The French Canadians of Michigan&quot; (2003). Du résumé: &quot;Cette thièse a pour objet la migration des Canadiens français vers le Michigan de 1840 à  1914. Elle s&#039;intéresse de maniére plus precise aux Canadiens français qui se sont dirigés vers deux régions caracteristiques du développement industriel de l&#039;Etat, soit la vallée forestiière de la riviere Saginaw et la peninsule miniière de cuivre de Keweenaw. Au-dela d&#039;établir un profil statistique du mouvement migratoire, cette these cherche a mettre en lumiere la contribution des Canadiens français au développement socioéconomique du Michigan, à  connaitre de quelle facon les Canadiens français se sont adaptés à  la realité industrielle changeante du Michigan et à  identifier les strategies qui furent adoptées pour y parvenir....Nous posons d&#039;abord comme cadre general d&#039;analyse que la mobilite spatiale des Canadiens français sur le continent nord-americain a été sous-estimée et que cet aspect de la realité socioéconomique et culturelle des Canadiens français commence à  peine à  être révelé dans toute sa dimension. L&#039;analyse de leur migration vers le Michigan éclaire de maniière encore plus évidente cet aspect et permet d&#039;inscrire ce mouvement migratoire en parfaite continuité avec la culture de mouvement et de travail qu&#039;ils ont acquisé au fil de leur expérience de vie et de travail sur le continent. Nous avons d&#039;abord constaté que les Canadiens français ont contribué de façon marquée à  toutes les étapes du développement socioéconomique et politique du Michigan. Nous avons découvert que l&#039;adaptation des Canadiens français à  la realité industrielle au Michigan s&#039;est exprimée de maniière différente dans le marche du travail forestier et dans celui du travail minier. Dans le premier cas, la culture de mouvement, conjuguée à  une longue expérience de travail dans ce domaine, a fait en sorte que les Canadiens français se sont sentis rapidement à  l&#039;aise dans ce milieu et que cette confiance a influencé leur comportement. Que ce soit dans leur communauté, face à  leurs élites ou au sein du marche du travail, l&#039;assurance qu&#039;ont affichée les Canadiens français leur a permis de prendre une distance face aux préscriptions clericales visant la survivance et l&#039;isolement, pour participer activement à  la société globale, s&#039;y impliquer, s&#039;adapter et réagir aux changements majeurs qui sont survenus sur le marche du travail industriel....Dans le secteur minier, l&#039;absence d&#039;expérience de travail des premiers migrants ne leur a pas permis d&#039;afficher une aussi belle assurance. Les Canadiens français sont démeurés en marge du travail minier alors qu&#039;ils se sont concentrés dans les secteurs connexés du travail forestier pour lequel ils avaient une expérience de travail. Ils ont également cherché à  s&#039;isoler socialement se concentrant dans des villages comme celui de Lake Linden ù ils ont constitué longtemps plus de la moitié de la population totale et ù ils ont pu ainsi maintenir un certain controle sur leur réalité socioéconomique et politique....Mais dans les deux cas, les Canadiens français n&#039;ont pas été passifs, ni victimes de la situation. Aux changements de toute nature qui se sont produits, ils ont constamment réagi en faisant appel à  leur culture de vie et de travail et aus ressources familiales pour s&#039;adapter afin de faciliter leur integration socioéconomique.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Franco-American Folk Traditions and Popular Culture in a Former Milltown : Aspects of Ethnic Urban Folklore and the Dynamics of Folklore Change in Lowell, Massachusetts ]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Lane: &quot;Being Americans of French-Canadian descent, the Franco-Americans of New England possess a rich and original traditional culture which has been little documented up to now, especially in English....As a result, this dissertation, which is a study in ethnic folklore and popular culture, attempts to provide an overview of the folk-traditions of French expression still existing today among the Franco-American community of Lowell, Massachusetts....This work is basically divided into two parts. The first two chapters of Part I deal with the general historical and cultural background of the Franco-Americans of New England, in general, and Lowell, in particular, while the third chapter looks at previous research in the domain of ethnic folklore and, more specifically, Franco-American folklore. Aspects of folklore performance and context are considered from the historical point of view of the Lowell Franco-American community....Part II, on the other hand, deals mainly with the documentation of the various realms of Franco-American folk-traditions, here classified according to genre. Traditional narratives (&quot;contes&quot;), popular jokes (&quot;histoires droles&quot;), children&#039;s songs and rhymes, and elements of oral history as well as aspects of traditional singing, music and dance are consecutively considered with sample texts of each genre given and analyzed. Further supporting documents are also presented in the appendices....Because Franco-American culture (and therefore Franco-American folklore and popular culture) is the historical result of successive migrations (from France to what is known today as Canada and, from Canada to New England) this study also takes into account the phenomenon of cultural continuity as well as some aspects of the dynamics of culture change which are viewed here as a process resulting from the conflict having taken and still taking place between two opposing forces: cultural maintenance and assimilation....Most of all, however, this work is a first step into the field of Franco-American oral-traditional genres, popular culture and an homage to ethnic creativity.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[De l&#039;introduction de cet étudiant de France: &quot;Afin d&#039;approcher le sujet, trois méthodes ont été employées. La lecture de documents écrits retracent l&#039;immigration et l&#039;installation de canadiens français dans le Maine. Afin de mieux percevoir ce qui peut définier un franco-américain, l&#039;outil statistique constatera certains critières économiques comme familiaux en 1990. Enfin, différentes rencontres imageront l&#039;environnement d&#039;un franco-américain dans le Maine en cette fin de siiècle....Bien sur, à  travers des traits historiques, on obervera la continuité de quelques formes communautaires encore marquées du seau du XIXième et du début du XXième siiècle. Le rappel historique d&#039;une immigration canadienne francophone est le prélude du phénomiène franco-américain dans les états de Nouvelle-Angleterre. Les lieux d&#039;émigration comme d&#039;immigration sont connus et à  chaque ville dite &quot;française&quot;, on peut déterminer les lieux d&#039;origine des nouveaux arrivants. Qu&#039;il se soit fait à  pied ou en train, le mouvement migratoire amenait ces canadiens francophones à  se regrouper en certaines villes. Des structures communautaires furent crées pour faciliter les conditions de vie des canadiens français dans le Maine....La geographie des franco-américains dans le Maine sera ensuite abordée. On cherchera à  savoir si le phénomiène est uniforme. Pour cela, des outils statistiques apporteront des renseignements sur des différences régionales tant d&#039;un point de vue géographique que sociologique....Enfin, divers aspects de la réalité franco-américaine des années 1990 seront présentés. On essayera de comprendre sur quelles bases les communautés continuent a se maintenir, et si renouvellement il y a.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[British and Canadian Immigration to the United States since 1920 ]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Dissertation on the &quot;invisible immigrants&quot; to the United States from Britain and Canada between the 1920s and 1960s. From the author: &quot;Always among the most numerous groups of immigrants to the United States, until 1969, the British and Canadians seldom claimed the attention of historians, just as they caused little discussion among the American people generally. Sharing a common language and closeness of culture with the Americans, the British and Canadians remained unhyphenated--they were America&#039;s &#039;invisible immigrants.&#039;...A number of important studies on the British immigrant, if not the Canadian, do exist, but they are concerned with the Britons&#039; experiences and their contribution to the American mosaic during America&#039;s &#039;century of immigration,&#039; the one hundred years from 1815 to 1914. The purpose of this study was to extend the record of British and Canadian immigration beyond the statistical reports of government departments since the hiatus of World War I and to present an interpretive commentary on the significance of these two streams of immigration--to the sending countries; to the receiving country; and to a sample of individual immigrants themselves.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Following the Evangeline Trail : Acadian Identity Performance Across Borders ]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;The poem &#039;Evangeline: A Tale of Acadie&#039; by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow published in 1847, has had an impact on people for generations. The success of the poem was felt not only by its readership but also by the Acadian culture that the poem, and its heroine, came to represent. Evangeline, as character and poem, has evolved in meaning and popularity over the centuries and still plays a role in the cultural performance of contemporary Acadians....This study of Acadian cultural identity utilizes a performance approach that looks at cultural identity as a performative accomplishment in daily life. The analysis first enacts a performance historiography of the Acadian Deportation in 1755, Longfellow&#039;s poetic representation of this historical event, and the contemporary context of performing Evangeline in the Acadian diaspora. Next it examines the storytelling performances of narrative interviews with five Acadians. Three of these Acadians still live in the land of Evangeline, in Grand-Pre, Nova Scotia, and the other two live in Maine. Retellings of the story of Evangeline and reflections on the poem and character by each of the participants were analyzed for meanings which form and inform contemporary performances of Acadian cultural identity. The performance methodology allows for meanings to emerge from the embodied Acadian storytelling and to contextualize them in cultural and political spheres....&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Status of French Among Youth in a Bilingual American-Canadian Border Community : The Case of Madawaska, Maine ]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Price: &quot;This study examines the status of the French language among young residents of Madawaska, Maine, a US-Canadian border community with a long history of bilingualism and contact with French speakers. This study views language status as having two distinct yet interrelated components: (1) code role, or characteristics associated with the use of a given language or variety, such as attitudes of speakers toward the variety and its use, the proficiency level of speakers, language use patterns, and so forth, and (2) code nature, or the state of the variety in question in terms of syntax, phonology and lexicon. The data, collected by means of four interview tasks, targeted both code role and code nature and sought to determine the general status of French among the younger residents of this community. In addition to the younger subject population, a small adult baseline population was also included in order to compare data across generations, so as to identify not just possible differences in code role, but also in code nature, including the possibility of language loss....The data suggested several trends. First, in terms of code role, young subjects generally reported lower levels of language use, proficiency and exposure to French than did adults. Secondly, not only did high-proficiency young subjects generally report higher scores in these areas than did lower-proficiency subjects, but males tended to score higher than females in this regard. This would suggest that exposure to French, context, language proficiency and gender correlate with language use among this population. Conversely, attitudes do not generally appear to be a salient factor motivating French language use. With regard to code nature, the study found that even the most proficient young speakers demonstrated some important gaps in their grammatical competence, and that the young subject population as a whole exhibited features in their production consistent with language loss. The study concludes that although there are still many individuals with ability in French, the differences between younger and older speakers in terms of both code role and code nature suggest that local French will be lost unless further action is taken to reverse the progress of French language loss among young bilinguals in the community.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Dissertation from the author of &quot;Loyal but French: The Negotiation of Identity by French-Canadian Descendants in the United States.&quot; From the author: &quot;Using Lewiston, Maine, as a community study, this dissertation examines how individuals of French-Canadian descent negotiated their entry into U.S. society from 1860 to 2001. Descriptive statistics compiled from federal manuscript censuses, city directories, and naturalization records provide portraits of the community at different points in time. The French language newspaper of Lewiston and materials from Catholic archives provide much of the literary evidence in this work....This study challenges our understanding of what we call &quot;assimilation.&quot; It suggests that acculturation rather than &quot;assimilation&quot; better describes the process by which ethnic populations join the host society. Historians tend to oversimplify ethnic preservation and acculturation by depicting them as binary opposites. This study argues that, rather than struggling between ethnic retention and acculturation, French-Canadian migrants and their Franco-American descendants in Lewiston pursued them as intertwined goals from the 1870s to the 1950s. It also contends that their Americanization was anything but linear. Lewiston&#039;s francophones challenged, rejected, or redefined some of the norms of the host society, as they renegotiated their identity in the United States. Yet, modeling good citizenship was integral to their interconnected identity as ethnic Americans. The experiences of Lewiston&#039;s French-Canadian descendants challenge contemporary assumptions about the incompatibility of ethnic retention and Americanization.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Rowe: &quot;This paper traces how hegemonic forces create boundaries through the specific examples of the Lebanese and Franco-Americans in Waterville, Maine. These two immigrant groups entered into Waterville after an English-Scottish Protestant majority had already been established in the eighteenth and early nineteenth century. The Franco-American immigration from Quebec extended well over a century and the flow of people out of Canada can generally be studied into two distinct waves. People were constantly coming into Waterville from Quebec, and a small number would return to live in Canada after a time. It is also critical to understand that Franco-Americans were settling all over Maine during this same time span and that it is generally accepted that in the state of Maine today at least forty percent of the state has French-Canadian ancestry. In contrast the Lebanese who came to Waterville came during a very specific time period, from about 1890-1920. Their numbers were smaller and there were very few Lebanese who settled elsewhere in Maine.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Schulz: &quot;French-Canadian immigrants to New England, unlike other ethnic groups in the United States, did not show signs of assimilation into American society until the 1950&#039;s. This thesis examines the history of one French-Canadian community - Sand Hill, in Augusta, Maine. French Canadians came to Augusta in great numbers around the turn of the century to work in the cotton mill. To investigate the retention of French-Canadian identity, French-Canadian immigrants are considered as both an ethnic group and a social class. Evidence drawn from interviews with immigrants and from written accounts shows that economic conditions, such as poverty and lack of education, helped to reinforce French-Canadian isolation from &quot;Yankees&quot; in Augusta. Resistance to assimilation was also promoted by policies and informal practices of two strong local institutions: the French Catholic Church and the textile mill.&quot;  Photographs taken by the thesis author of the Edwards textile mill in Augusta available here.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Living Arrangements : Race, Ethnicity and Nationality in the Liberal State ]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;Liberals usually argue that cultural identity can flourish in the private sphere but should not matter in public. This argument is blind to the way liberal institutions affect cultural identity, the prejudices that members of some groups face, and the need for there to be only one or two public languages in most modern states. To fill this gap in liberal theory, I divide cultural groups into three: racial, ethnic and national groups. I explore this gap by looking at four groups: American Jews, the Amish, Black Americans and French Canadians....I argue that liberal citizenship transforms ethnic identity, making it difficult though not impossible to maintain strong ethnic ties in the liberal state. I defend these effects on ethnic identity, though I also argue that there is often too much pressure on ethnics to give up their particular practices. Liberal citizenship, though, has not transformed the identity of the Amish, who maintain their identity through a voluntary radical separation from the rest of society. The Amish treasure hierarchical and patriarchal illiberal values, but liberal toleration means that the liberal state should do little about this. Black Americans also have a distinctive culture, not from voluntary separation, but as a consequence of racism. For Blacks to gain equal citizenship, the liberal state must work to make Black citizenship visible and allow Blacks to bypass the effects of racism. This is contrary to the usual liberal argument of making issues of identity private matters. If Blacks gain liberal citizenship their identity would change considerably, just as liberal citizenship has transformed ethnic identity....Many people claim their cultural identity is tied to a particular language, yet most languages have a hard time surviving in industrialized, liberal states. I explain the conditions that languages need to survive. I contend, paradoxically, that because liberalism transforms ethnic identity, liberalism increases the importance of language to the identity of some. While liberalism and nationalism are usually antagonistic, I sketch out a compromise between language-based nationalism and liberalism. I end the dissertation by pointing out the implications my argument has for educational policy and for liberal theory.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;Although the originally French speaking Franco-American communities of Southbridge, Massachusetts, and Woonsocket, Rhode Island, have much in common historically, language shift toward English has advanced to differing degrees in the two locations. In this dissertation, I explore morphosyntactic variation and the advance of language shift in the two locations using historical documentation, U.S. census figures and sociolinguistic interviews conducted with sixty-nine informants....After comparing and contrasting the sociolinguistic profiles of the two communities, I describe some of the linguistic consequences of the shift from French to English in these traditional Franco-American centers through a quantitative variationist analysis of two morphosyntactic variables. These are auxiliary variation in the passé composé and variation between use of the synthetic and analytic futures. Findings from Southbridge and Woonsocket provide new insight for understanding linguistic change during situations of language decline...&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Migration, Family, and Gender : A Longitudinal Analysis of French-Canadian Immigrants in Lowell, Massachussetts, 1900-1920 ]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Takai: &quot;&#039;Migration, Family, and Gender: A Longitudinal Study of French-Canadian Immigrants in Lowell , Massachusetts , 1900-1920,&#039; explores migration from French Canada to a New England urban centre of the textile industry, Lowell, Massachusetts. During the period under study, both Québec and New England underwent significant socioeconomic transformation. This work analyses the impact of these changes on the process of migration and settlement. It also sheds light on the diverse ways in which French-Canadian men, women, and children responded to new realities in an urban industrial society. In order to investigate these issues, it is necessary to consider this migration as a phenomenon which consisted of a series of processes and not as a linear progression towards inevitable assimilation or Americanization. It is also crucial to emphasize the importance of introducing a gendered perspective in order to recognize the diversity of strategies devised by immigrant men and women as well as the cooperation and tensions they experienced in the process of migration and settlement....This thesis joins recent scholarship in criticizing a perspective that has described all immigrant behaviour as necessarily reflecting one set of culturally predetermined norms and customs. Contrary to the stereotyped image of French Canadians as immobile and fatalistic habitants, evidence from this study shows that they were a highly mobile people for whom migration was a pondered response to the structural changes that were radically reshaping Québec and New England societies. It is argued that the behaviour of Lowell&#039;s French-Canadian immigrants in the early twentieth century did not merely reflect the cultural transplantation of habitant values, but also the attempts of working-class immigrant families to survive and cope with significant socioeconomic transformation occurring to both Québec and New England. The diversity in the recorded patterns of movements on the part of French Canadians is indicative of their strategic autonomy and flexibility in adjusting to new socioeconomic realities....This study also seeks to redress a major gender imbalance in the historical studies of immigrants by devoting considerable attention to women. Not only did women&#039;s lives differ from those of their male counterparts; there was also great variation in the extent to which women assumed financial and domestic tasks. Such diversity, I assert, in the patterns of women&#039;s paid work was defined not only by age or marital status, but also by a combination of factors such as household organization, living arrangements, and the availability of child care. Immigrant families harboured complex interpersonal dynamics where different and, at times, conflicting interests had to be negotiated in not necessarily equal terms, but in accordance to each member&#039;s power and authority within the family and the larger society.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Le résumé de Tremblay: &quot;Dans cette these de doctorat, nous explorons le concept de communauté, lequel appartient à  la sociologie mais qui est d&#039;un grand intéret pour les géographes par sa dimension spatiale plutot méconnue.  Ce que nous cherchons  à  mieux connaitre c&#039;est le role des lieux dans la vie quotidienne des membres d&#039;une communauté en banlieue....Dans un premier temps, nous montrons la pertinence d&#039;utliser l&#039;approche sociogéographique pour étudier la communauté. Ensuite, nous traitons de concept de communauté et des multiples mutations qu&#039;il a connues depuis une centaine d&#039;années. Cette partie de la these permet également à  constater que, comme le propose le géographe R.J. Johnston (1993), il y a un rapprochement entre le concept d&#039;espace social de la geographe Anne Buttimer et celui de communauté....Dans la seconde moitié de notre these, nous appliquons notre réflexion à  une étude de cas, c&#039;est- à -dire l&#039;espace canadien-francais en ballieue de Miami, que nous appelons ici &quot;Floribec&quot;. A partir d&#039;observations de terrain, réunies dans un chapitre qui offre une vision de l&#039;extérieur de la géographie de Floribec, nous nous posons les questions suivantes. Quels sont les institutions et les lieux structurants floribécois et quel role jouent-ils dans leur vie quotidienne de cette communauté? Aussi, comment Floribec est-elle organisée spatialement? Par la suite nous devoilons une vision de l&#039;intérieur de la géographie de Floribec et ce, à  partir des résultats d&#039;une enquete réalisée aupres de commercants floribécois....Cette étude de cas permet non seulement de révéler l&#039;organisation spatiale de Floribec, mais aussi de suggérer qu&#039;une communauté se structure à  partir d&#039;un ensemble de lieux structurants dont certains éloignées, qui lui donnent sa cohérence, et d&#039;ou la communauté tire son identité.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;In the first part of the dissertation, we analyze the institutions which traditionally favored bilingualism: the family, the parochial school, the Catholic parish, the social environment, the media and other organisms such as mutual benefit societies and social clubs. The second part deals with images of French language and culture. These chapters treat of the non-linguistic make-up of Franco-American culture, the way Franco-Americans perceive their ethnic tongue and their attitudes towards it, and the written and oral French mastery of our population. In the final part of the analysis, we examine how Franco-American ethnic identity is defined by the individuals questioned and their views on the future of French language and culture in New England.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Also featured, in abridged form, in the Massachusetts Review (see &#039;Journal Articles&#039;). From the author: &quot;This thesis introduces the concept of imaginative colonization in postcolonial literary and cultural studies, which has a particular relevance to the literatures of North America. It argues that the postcolonial experiences of the former colonies of England and France in the Americas, particularly the United States and French Canada, have been primarily conditioned by their relations to each other and not by their relations to the former colonizing power. Imaginative colonization occurs when one former colony, using the means of the cross-border narrative and/or the postmodern recuperation of history, reimagines another not as an autonomous cultural entity, but as a feature of its own history, language, ideology, and even cartography. Focusing especially on Henry Thoreau&#039;s travelogue, &#039;A Yankee in Canada&#039; (1866) and Jacques Poulin&#039;s postmodern novel, &#039;Volkswagen Blues&#039; (1984), but taking into account the entire history of French Canadian-American relations, this thesis establishes that the practice of imaginative colonization in North American literatures is parallel but nonsynchronous: both American and French Canadian literature go through the same developmental stages of decolonization and postcolonial imaginative colonization, even though they do so in different centuries. The examples presented also indicate that imaginative colonization blurs the established dividing lines between works of fact and fiction and that it occurs in both French and English.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

This study follows Daniel Francoeur, Plante&#039;s principal recurring character and fictional counterpart, on a journey of self-discovery in five novels that are representative of the three decades of Plante&#039;s career and illustrative of experiences located in both the native and foreign environments of his fictional world. In these five novels: The Family, The Woods, The Country, The Foreigner, and The Accident, Plante maps a terrain that extends in time and space from the insular French Canadian, Catholic parish in Providence where Daniel Francoeur grows up to the cities of Europe where he spends his late adolescence.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Role of Fr. Jean-Baptiste Proulx in the Danielson Affair and in the Manitoba School Question]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;The thesis is an examination of the role of Fr. Jean-Baptiste Proulx as an intermediary for the French-Canadian laity at St. James&#039; Church in Danielson, Connecticut in the parish discord known as the Danielson Affair, and as a secret ambassador of Prime Minister Wilfred Laurier for negotiations with Pope Leo XIII in order to settle the Manitoba School Question in 1896. The thesis re-examines the histories that have been written about Fr. Proulx&#039;s role in both historical events, and the histories that are examined are the book and dissertation by Sr. Dolores Liptak, European Immigrants and the Catholic Church in Connecticut, 1870-1920, and Robert Rumilly&#039;s Histoire des Franco-Américains and volumes eight and nine of his series, Histoire de la Province du Québec. ... The sources that are used to re-examine the histories are sources that Robert Rumilly used, such as the Papers of Fr. Proulx that are held by the National Archives of Quebec at Montreal, as well as Fr. Proulx&#039;s own account as an intermediary in the Danielson Affair, entitled: &quot;Journal of My Steps and Walks in the Diocese of Hartford on the Subject of Danielson by the Reverend J.B. Proulx, Parish Priest of St. Lin.&quot; Also used are several contemporary newspapers in Connecticut, as well as three French-language newspapers that were published in Montreal and in Southern New England. In the analysis of the Danielson Affair and the Manitoba School Question, the thesis examines the development of several documents in light of either historical event. ... Also, the thesis analyzes two speeches from the Eleventh Convention of the Canadiens-Américains du Connecticut that was held in September 1896, and how they became two documents about the Danielson Affair that were forwarded to Fr. Proulx while he was in Rome. Other documents that are examined are the decision of the Connecticut Supreme Court of Errors on the contested election of lay trustees at St. James&#039; Church in Danielson, known as &#039;State ex rel. George Barry vs. Eli Getty and James Reynolds,&#039; and the response by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Hartford to the said decision that changed the state laws for the incorporation of Catholic parishes, &#039;An Act concerning the Organization of Roman Catholic Churches&#039; in 1903.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Becoming Holy in Early Canada : Performance and the Making of Holy Persons in Society and Culture]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;In this dissertation, I analyze how local religious figures became holy and the social functions they played, in order to better understand the connections between religion and colonialism and the shaping of faith communities over time. The study covers a broad time period from the early days of French settlement in Canada to the late nineteenth century. The focus falls on New France and the holy persons associated with the early years of settlement when religion and colonization were intimately connected. It was only towards the end of the nineteenth century that these figures were put forward for official recognition by the church in canonization causes, and consequently I conclude the study with an examination of the processes and resulting documents that contributed to the transformation of local holy persons into saints. Throughout the study, I concentrate on the place holy persons occupied in local society both during life and after death as intercessors for the faithful, the meanings they held and presented to their audiences, and the ways they performed the traditions of sanctity. Rituals of holiness were a form of communication. Holy persons and audiences interacted with and influenced one another to create a saint that was efficacious and effective. While faith communities developed around local, family and community networks, hagiographic texts described the lives, deaths and intercessions of select individuals and spread cults of belief. Between performances of holiness and the inscription of holy lives into texts, local saints were made who responded to the needs of their faith communities and became important parts of local religious, social, and cultural life.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;In the province of Alberta, the recent phenomenon of French-speaking newcomers, who are multicultural, multiracial, multiethnic and multifaith, is putting into question the concept of a collective Francophone identity in Canada. On the one hand, the notion of a collective Francophone identity has been evolving for several decades. On the other, changing demographics are challenging the already elusive concept of Francophone identity across Canada, thus making the notion increasingly difficult to define. The question therefore remains: who is Francophone in Canada?...As a Francophone teacher-researcher in a minority setting, I am particularly drawn to explore how Grade 7 students perceive and construct the francophonie and their Francophone identity as lived in Alberta. Specifically, I consider how stories of history, memory, language and geography explore the lived experience of Francophones in Alberta, especially during an era of increasing pluralism...&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Bonsoir le maiêtre et la maiêtresse: le roêle de la Guiannée dans le maintien des communautés franco-américaines de Sainte-Genevieève et de la Prairie du Rocher]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;This dissertation explores the cultural identity of two Franco-American communities in the Mid-West [United States] to identify traits that continue to persist despite language loss due to prejudice and persecution. In this dissertation, I argue that cultural identity does continue in spite of language loss and that when language loss does occur, other identity traits, such as festivals and traditional celebrations take on a more profound and visible role in order to maintain this cultural identity.<br />
<br />
&quot;In 2006 and 2007, I observed the Guiannée (La Guiannée) of Sainte Genevieve, Missouri, and of Prairie du Rocher, Illinois, to understand how these two communities continue to express the culture of their French heritage. The Guiannée became the center of my research into understanding the maintenance of the Franco-American identity. This celebration continues each year on New Year&#039;s Eve and it is sung in French by members of the community who do not speak, read, or write in French, except in some cases for identifying places, people, or other celebrations.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Southern Seduction : Canadian and American Snowbirds in Florida Since 1945]]></dcterms:title>
    <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:title><![CDATA[Family, Kinship and Community Formation on the Canadian-American Border : Madawaska, 1785-1842]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;The Madawaska settlement, on the Upper St. John Valley in Northern Maine and North West New Brunswick was started in 1785 by a group of Acadian and French-Canadian families for New Brunswick, and a group of French Canadians from the St. Lawrence Valley. They were subsequently joined by other migrants from French Canada. The settlers lived off subsistence farming till 1824, when lumbercamps opened in the region. They were isolated as no road connected the Upper St. John Valley with other settled region until the 1830s. The only means of communication between Madawaska and the outside world was through the St. John and Madawaska Rivers and through portages to the St. Lawrence. This study examines the interaction between family, kinship networks and the process of community formation over the first sixty years of this settlement. It is based primarily on quantitative sources: parish registers, censuses, land records, but also uses existing traditional evidence. Consequently, it extensively uses quantitative and demographic techniques.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

J&#039;y analyse non pas la réception de ce mouvement au Québec lors de son émergence dans les années 1950, mais bien sa réappropriation postérieure. II faut pour lire ce corpus québécois contemporain une connaissance sans faille de celui de la Beat Generation et des travaux sur le mouvement et ses écrivains. Dans cette optique, je trace d&#039;entrée de jeu les grandes lignes de l&#039;histoire personnelle et de l&#039;approche littéraire des principaux auteurs de la Beat Generation, qui n&#039;ont jamais rédige de manifeste. Par la suite, je prociède a une analyse du corpus québécois a partir de thièmes privilégies du mouvement, d&#039;inscriptions textuelles, de citations et de références explicites ou masquées dans des noms de personnages ou de lieux. J&#039;établis aussi les filiations entre les personnages d&#039;un corpus et de l&#039;autre. Il s&#039;agit donc, toujours en restant prés des textes, d&#039;analyser la présence « Beat» au sein du corpus québécois.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <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[Dissertation analyzing the social dynamics of an Ontario &quot;pulp and paper town&quot; with significant French- and English-heritage populations. 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[Thesis in sociology highlighting Franco American women  in the preservation of ethnic heritage and language. Based on a variety of case studies conducted by the author in 1980s New England.  From the author: &quot;The primary purpose of this dissertation was to explore questions related to the processes of ethnic persistence and, secondarily, to understand the role of women in these processes. The procedure for this investigation was to conduct a case study of an ethnic women&#039;s organization, La Federation Feminine Franco-Americaine (Fede). This case study of the Fede utilized field work techniques, in-depth interviews and the analysis of archival materials. The objectives of this case study were in brief: (1) to delineate the maintenance activities involved in ethnic persistence; (2) to determine the importance of ethnicity to ethnic group members actively involved in its maintenance; (3) to assess the role of ethnic women in these processes, in order to develop a grounded theory of ethnic persistence.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[A review of Béatrice Craig&#039;s &quot;Backwoods Consumers and Homespun Capitalists: The Rise of a Market Culture in Eastern Canada&quot; (University of Toronto Press, 2007). From Bittermann, provided by Project MUSE: &quot;Backwoods Consumers and Homespun Capitalists examines the history of rural life in the Madawaska region of the Upper Saint John River Valley from early non-Indigenous settlement in the 1780s to the closing years of the third quarter of the nineteenth century. Thus, although the title suggests otherwise, it is a story that unfolds primarily within the history of British North America and the United States rather than the new Canadian nation-state. Although cast in large part as an exploration of questions raised by a literature concerning the presence or absence of capitalism in rural North America, Craig&#039;s study offers valuable insights to those who have little patience with the transition debate and who believe that wading into that quagmire simply generates more mud(dle).&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

Much of the hubbub surrounding this bill was created by its opponents who cited, among other things, its imposition on freedom of linguistic choice, or its strangulation of a parent&#039;s choice of the language in which one&#039;s child might be schooled. 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>

    <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[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[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>

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 the authors: &quot;Virtually unique to the upper St. John Valley of Maine, the Madawaska twin barn is a large structure consisting of two parallel sections joined to form an &quot;H.&quot; Although the form has its origin in a restricted barn building tradition of nineteenth century Québec, oral history research and detailed survey suggest that the barn is not the product of direct diffusion. 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: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>

Events of recent years, including the successes and failures of the Quiet Revolution and the results of the 1980 referendum, lend credence to this view. Today Québec remains both of and apart from the North American continent, home to a web of kin that has been spun to even the most distant corners.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author:&quot; &#039;Les Canadiens Français de la Nouvelle-Angleterre&#039; (1891) by the French Jesuit Edouard Hamon is representative of Quebec imperialist thought. Hamon envisioned a peaceful conquest of New England by a surplus French-Canadian population, capable of resisting Americanization, laboring in the mills, and farming the countryside. Hamon suggested bonds between established Quebec churches and churches in northern New England. He favored a sovereign nation formed out of Quebec and Franco-American New England. Hamon&#039;s work was warmly received by French Canadians and Franco-Americans, although it awakened nativist suspicion in the United States.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;The migration of one million French Canadians from Québec to the United States between 1840 and 1940 was different from the migrations of other ethnic groups. 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>

From the text: &quot;More than ever it struck me as to just how elitist French Canada&#039;s historiography has been and to a large degree remains. The constitutional, nationalist, neo-nationalist, and ideological schools have all been recycling the same elitist hash: in essence a Whig interpretation from the loser&#039;s perspective. Rouillard&#039;s emigrants, however, were the survivors in the grand tradition of la survivance. Personal interests came first...&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

La notion d&#039;origine française est relativement floue, mais la répartition selon les Etats met en valeur les deux principales zones de peuplement franco-américains: la Louisiane et la Nouvelle-Angleterre. La répartition des francophones ressemble à  celle des franco-américains, mais de surcroît, elle révièle l&#039;existence de quelques îlots de francophonie, dans les zones d&#039;immigration contemporaine.

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;The U.S. state of Vermont is often portrayed as a place where &#039;race&#039; is of little significance, yet notions of whiteness are central to how the state has been represented and represents itself. A critical analysis of historical and contemporary economies of representation examines how Vermont has been imagined as one of the last remaining spaces of authentic Yankee whiteness while more recently becoming an imagined homeland for particular brands of white liberal politics and social practice in the United States. Narratives of white Vermont identity have often explicitly drawn on oppositions to other forms of whiteness, particularly those associated with the U.S. South, in constructing an image of a comparatively racially benign Yankee whiteness. Recent right-wing discourses have explicitly attempted to construct Vermont whiteness as outside the American mainstream (not least through its discursive association with gay and lesbian sexualities), suggesting a need for geographical work on the (re)configuration of whiteness to reconsider where &#039;normal&#039; American whiteness is imagined to reside. The examination of the case of Vermont highlights the need for future geographical research to attend to continuities between various territorialized constructions of whiteness as well as contestations within whiteness.&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>

From the text: &quot;The ways in which these women and girls perceived the options available to them as migrants in New England cities, and took full advantage of them, suggest that for many Québécois migrant women in the decades around 1900, the United States indeed represented a land of opportunity and possibility&quot; (p. 56).]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Waldron explores the impacts of immigration on French Canadian norms of gender, labor, and social practice. She uses the examples of Lewiston, Maine, and Worcester, Massachusetts, and the different economies therein to ultimately observe the impact of a certain migration on the traditions (oppressive or otherwise) of a people. From the text: &quot;My argument is twofold: on one hand, for male leaders in these migrant communities, perpetuating traditional ideas about men&#039;s and women&#039;s contributions to family and society was part of an effort to retain, on a communal level, their distinct identity as a Catholic people of French Canadian ancestry. In contrast, for female migrants, the decision to support traditional gender norms was a more complicated one; many migrant women and their American-born daughters advocated perpetuation of traditional Quebecois understandings of gender not only as a means of defining their place in American society, as Catholic women of French Canadian ancestry, but also to obtain and maintain the benefits and status within the home that these ideals afforded them in the United States.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[An examination of industrial labor through the lenses of ethnicity and gender in 19th-century Cohoes, New York. From the text: &quot;This essay intends to examine the ways in which the cultural experience of the predominantly immigrant working class might have distorted their view of their social conditions and impaired their ability to focus on the origins of their oppression. Consequently, working-class violence, rather than being directed at the manufacturer, was directed at the ranks of the unemployed ready to claim their jobs. In this way, the working class did not engage in aggressive violence to win a social revolution so much as it fought defensive struggles to protect its modest gains.&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[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[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>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Nimbus Publishing: &quot;The first work devoted exclusively to the Acadians of Nova Scotia, this book presents a thorough study of Acadian history from the earliest days of French settlement to present-day Acadian communities. Ross and Deveau draw on original seventeenth century texts, as well as up-to-date sources. The examine the history of the expulsion - the Grand Derangement - that began in 1755, and trace the return of the Acadians and their resettlement in seven areas of the province. The authors highlight the distinct features that have developed within these different regions of Nova Scotia, and discuss the choices and challenges faced by Acadians today: linguistic assimilation and preservation of a distinct culture against pressures from the mainstream culture.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

And throughout this volume, striking for its fidelity to place and time and atmosphere, the author has never for a moment lost sight of that irreplaceable thing - the human dimension.&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>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the author: &quot;In New England, as elsewhere in the United States, colleges and universities offer degrees in languages, but few make courses in the history of those languages mandatory. Aside from the usual MA theses and Ph.d. dissertations - almost all of them stiffly written attempts to isolate academically &#039;workable&#039; and degree-granting minutia - there is very little in print for the students of language that attempts to explain how contemporary languages in America have been and continue to be affected by their rubbing of elbows....<br />
&#039;Mutt Contay Saw&#039; is about French and what has happened to it in New England. But it&#039;s also about English. It&#039;s entirely in English, even the French pronunciations are rendered in English. There&#039;s a brief history tracing the development of English.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <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>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[A history of New England women during industrialization, and the lifestyle differences among women of different economic classes.  From Thomas Dunne Books: &quot;This is a masterful, definitive, and eloquent look at the enormous cultural and economic impact on America of New England&#039;s textile mills. The author, an award-winning CBS producer, traces the history of American textile manufacturing back to the ingenuity of Francis Cabot Lodge. The early mills were an experiment in benevolent enlightened social responsibility on the part of the wealthy owners, who belonged to many of Boston&#039;s finest families. But the fledgling industry&#039;s ever-increasing profits were inextricably bound to the issues of slavery, immigration, and workers&#039; rights....William Moran brings a newsman&#039;s eye for the telling detail to this fascinating saga that is equally compelling when dealing with rags and when dealing with riches. In part a microcosm of America&#039;s social development during the period, &#039;The Belles of New England&#039; casts a new and finer light on this rich tapestry of vast wealth, greed, discrimination, and courage.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

The rise and fall of Amoskeag, in photos. A volume in the broad-ranging &quot;Images of America&quot; series of books. Previously published under the title &quot;A World Within a World.&quot; From Arcadia Publishing: &quot;This fascinating and moving book brings to life the industrial and immigrant experience which gave birth to Manchester in the nineteenth century and continued to shape the city&#039;s destiny well into the twentieth century. More than a hundred years ago, thousands of immigrants from Europe and Canada were drawn to the mills of Manchester by the promise of a better life. In stirring photographs and text, &#039;Manchester: The Mill and the Immigrant Experience&#039; examines the aspirations, the struggles, and the everyday adventures of Manchester&#039;s immigrant families. Reaffirming the power of photography to move and inform us, &#039;Manchester: The Mills and the Immigrant Experience&#039; creates a vivid picture of life during nearly a century of rapid industrial change. We join the bustle of Elm and Hanover Streets in the 1880s, witness children working at the mighty Amoskeag Manufacturing Company, enter a Greek coffeehouse in the early 1900s, get caught up in the bitter labor strikes of the 1920s, and meet unusual local figures such as the Hermit of Mosquito Pond.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Paper on Franco American values and cultural patterns as visible in the people of Vermont. The importance of recognizing such patterns and morals for health and social service providers. Included in Occasional Paper Number Six, in a series produced by the Center for Research on Vermont, University of Vermont. Originally presented as, &quot;The French-Canadians of Vermont: Cultural Implications for Health and Social Services Providers,&quot; at a meeting sponsored by the University of Vermont Department of Psychology, November, 1981. From Woolfson: &quot;Though a number of Franco-Vermonters do not display visible trappings of their French-Canadian heritage, many still share, as do other ethnic groups, inherited cultural patterns and values. This paper examines some of these patterns and values with an eye to describing their importance for health and social services providers in particular. There has been considerable interest in the special social and cultural patterns of the French-Vermonters as an ethnic group, especially the roles that family members play in interviews and other health and social services contexts.&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[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>
