De Weil: "A? travers le cas mal connu des Franco-Américains, ces Canadiens français catholiques qui quittièrent le Québec pour la Nouvelle-Angleterre à partir des années 1860, l'Auteur entend montrer la place de la religion dans l'expérience ethnique de la transplantation. Apriès avoir rappelé la situation québécoise et le poids d'une Église catholique, romaine, conservatrice et nationaliste, vouée à la cause de la préservation d'une société catholique, française et rurale, il montre que, transplantée en Nouvelle Angleterre, cette religion ethnique eut néanmoins une fonction et conservatrice et modernisatrice..." -
The French Parish and Survivance in Nineteenth-Century New England
The role of the Roman Catholic parish in the development and preservation of French-Canadian immigrant communities in New England. From the author: "...this discussion of the religious aspects of [French-Canadian] immigration will be centered upon the parish, and upon the three-fold concept of preservation of religion, language, and customs which is contained for French Canadians in the word 'survivance.' The first half of the century, which might be called the dark ages of the French Canadians in New England, will be passed over rather rapidly, in order to do fuller justice to the more significant mission period from 1850 to 1868, and to the period of expansion and conflict from 1869 to 1900."Tags Ashuelot NH, Berlin NH, Biddeford ME, Boston MA, Brookfield NH, Burlington VT, Central Falls RI, Colebrook NH, Community: Customs and Social Life, Fall River MA, Fitchburg MA, Gardner MA, Government and Politics, Grafton MA, Haverhill MA, Holyoke MA, Labor History, Lawrence MA, Lewiston ME, Littleton NH, Lowell MA, Lynn MA, Madawaska ME, Maine, Manchester NH, Mills and Mill Work, Montréal QC, Nashua NH, New Braintree MA, New England, New Hampshire, Nonfiction, Nonfiction -- History -- Religion, North Adams MA, Oxford NH, Pawtucket RI, Pittsfield MA, Providence RI, Putnam CT, Québec, Religion, Rhode Island, Rochester NH, Rutland VT, Salem MA, Southbridge MA, Spencer MA, Springfield MA, St. Albans VT, Suncook NH, Swanton VT, Taunton MA, Van Buren ME, Vermont, Warren NH, Waterbury CT, Waterville ME, Willimantic CT, Winooski VT, Woonsocket RI, Worcester MA -

Présence visible et invisible de la langue française dans la littérature franco-américaine contemporaine
Pris de Glottopol, la revue de sociolinguistique en ligne: "Présence invisible dans le champ des littératures francophone et ethnique américaines, la littérature franco-américaine de la Nouvelle-Angleterre, qu'elle s'exprime en français ou en anglais, est la gardienne d'une mémoire francophone, d'un patrimoine culturel et linguistique qui réfute l'oubli. Peggy Pacini analyse la place de la langue française dans quelques romans franco-américains, qui y apparaît sous différentes formes (discours métissé, forme dialectale, français littéraire) et y occupe diverses fonctions (incise, dialogue, narration, monologue). L'image de la langue française dans ces romans permet de mieux comprendre, selon l'auteure, cette dialectique du bon et du mauvais français qui est sûrement à l'origine de la disparition de cette langue au sein de cette communauté."..."Triès peu répertoriée, la littérature franco-américaine de la Nouvelle-Angleterre est devenue une présence invisible dans le champ des littératures francophone mais aussi ethnique américaine. Néanmoins, qu'elle s'exprime en français ou en anglais, elle est la gardienne d'une mémoire francophone, d'un patrimoine culturel et linguistique qui réfute l'oubli. Il sera donc question d'analyser la place de la langue française dans ces romans, quelle que soit la forme qu'elle prenne (discours métissé, forme dialectale, français littéraire) et la fonction qu'elle occupe (incise, dialogue, narration, monologue). Pour cela, il faudra recontextualiser l'évolution de cette langue dans ce contexte nord-américain particulier et son rapport à l'idéologie de la survivance telle qu'elle était véhiculée par le clergé canadien français. De la même façon, l'image de la langue française dans ces romans permet de mieux comprendre cette dialectique du bon et du mauvais français qui est sûrement à l'origine de la disparition de cette langue au sein de cette communauté." -
Resisting the Melting Pot : The Long Term Impact of Maintaining Identity for Franco-Americans in New England
From MacKinnon and Parent - Department of Economics, McGill University: "In this paper, we look at the emigration of approximately 1 million French-Canadians who moved to the United States, with the bulk of the migration occurring between the end of the Civil War and 1930 and with most settling in neighboring New England. What makes this episode particularly interesting is the fact that the French-Canadian immigrants exerted considerable efforts to maintain their language and to replicate their home century institutions, most notably the schooling system, in their new country. This explicit resistance to assimilation generated considerable attention and concern in the U.S. over many years.... We look at the convergence in the educational attainment of French Canadian immigrants across generations relative to native English-speaking New Englanders and to other immigrants....Additionally, we show that military service was a very important factor contributing to the assimilation process through a variety of related channels, namely educational attainment, language assimilation, marrying outside the ethnic group, and moving out of New England. Finally, when we compare Franco-Americans to French-speaking Canadians of the same generations, it is clear that Franco-Americans substantially upgraded their educational attainment relative to what it would have been if they had not emigrated."Tags Acculturation and Assimilation, Business and Economics, Canada, Demography, Education, Emigration and Immigration, Ethnicity and Collective Identity, Fall River MA, Holyoke MA, Language and Linguistics, Mexico, New England, Nonfiction, Nonfiction -- Education, Nonfiction -- Immigration, Nonfiction -- Social Sciences, Québec, Religion, United States, War -

A brief historical essay commenting on the wide and various publication of French language periodicals (dailies and other newspapers) in New England and Quebec during the period of great cross-border migration, between 1860 and 1930.

Histoire d'un reêve brisé? : Les Canadiens français aux états-Unis
De Septentrion: "Au début du XXe siiècle, priès de la moitié de la population d'origine canadienne-française vivait à l'extérieur du Québec, en Nouvelle-Angleterre pour la plupart. Cette saignée démographique aurait pu contribuer à l'établissement d'une société francophone vigoureuse et dynamique aux États-Unis. Mais, au milieu des années 1970, le dominicain Thomas-Marie Landry signera l'acte de déciès de ce rêve pieux tandis que les élites franco-américaines considéreront cette tentative comme un échec. Toutefois, pour ceux qui ont choisi de s'installer aux États-Unis d'abord et avant tout pour améliorer leur sort et celui de leurs enfants, l'anglicisation et l'assimilation apparaissent non comme un échec, mais comme une réussite. Ils voient dans leur histoire une heureuse évolution qui a fait d'eux des Américains d'origine canadienne-française.

One Piece in the Great American Mosaic : The Franco-Americans of New England
Essay written in 1976, "in the spirit of the [United States'] Bicentennial," recognizing the Franco Americans as a distinct and significant ethnic group in American history.

The French-Canadian Experience in New England and the Photographs of Ulrich Bourgeois
An essay on how photographer Ulrich Bourgeois captured the French Canadian ways of living that persisted and developed individually in early 20th-century Franco America. How Bourgeois, knowingly or not, worked to preserve a period of Franco American history otherwise obscure and absent from much of the contemporary collective memory. Says Schwartzwald, Bourgeois' Massachusetts and New Hampshire photos "reflect both the perceptions of those in the Franco-American community on their way to becoming owners of larger businesses and professionals, as well as Bourgeois' own experience of community as unity and homogeneity rather than as disparity and tension." -

Tool of Acculturation, Outil de Survivance : Education of French Canadians in Holyoke, Massachusetts, 1880-1920
From Fliss: "Motivated to ensure 'la survivance,' 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' 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...." -

Revolution : The Coming of F.A.R.O.G., 1970-1972
From the author: "In 1970 a group of Franco-Americans at the University of Maine, Orono, began meeting to discuss the creation of a new Franco-American ethnic identity. By the end of 1972, the succeeded in establishing a formal Franco-American program. They succeeded for several reasons. Like some Franco-Americans of their time, they felt acutely the loss of their ethnic group's former ties to a proud French-Canadian heritage.
