The Belles of New England

A presentation by William Moran on his book, "The Belles of New England," as a portion of the 2002 Concord Festival of Authors, Concord, Massachusetts. From C-SPAN: "Mr. Moran discussed his book 'The Belles of New England: The Women of the Textile Mills and the Families Whose Wealth They Wove,' published by Thomas Dunne Books. The book recounts the rise and fall of the New England textile industry of the 19th century. Mr. Moran traces the experiences of the thousands of women who left New England farm towns and the Irish, Canadian and European immigrants who came to work in the textile mills. At a time when women had no political influence, these workers opposed mill owners like the Cabots and Lowells of Boston for fair wages and safer working conditions. Following his remarks, Mr. Moran answered questions from members of the audience."

Nous tenterons aussi d'ordonner les données statistiques disponibles et de les compléter par quelques compilations personnelles."..."En conclusion, nous tacherons de rattacher les sources et les destinations des émigrants canadiens du Québec afin de déterminer un peu plus clairement les axes de l'exode."

La franco-américanie ou le Québec d'en bas

Essai sur certains rélations entre l'émigration québécoise envers les Etats-Unis, la prolétarisation d'une population francophone nord-américaine, et la montée du nationalisme au Quebec à la seconde moitié du XIXe siiècle. Comment la classe ouvriière émigrante dans des collectivités comme Woonsocket, Rhode Island, nous aident à comprendre la franco-américanie et l'histoire du Québec. L'auteur utilise des ressources écrites et orales. De l'auteur: "Par l'exemple de Woonsocket au Rhode Island, l'auteur tente d'illustrer les caractières historiques de cette partie majeure de la diaspora québécoise en Amérique du Nord; preuve de l'immense influence au XIXe siiècle, de la République américaine sur le développement d'un Québec moderne." (résumé) From the author: "...Through the example of Woonsocket in Rhode Island, the author illustrâtes the major elements of Franco-American history. As the most important component of the Québécois diaspora in North America, the New England French populations provide strong evidence, in the nineteenth century, of the enduring influence of the American Republic on the shaping of a modem day Québec" (abstract).

Crossing the 49th Parallel : Migration from Canada to the United States, 1900-1930

A chronicling of movement from English and French Canada to the United States in the first thirty years of the twentieth century. Focused less on American community building than on patterns and means of human migration visible in government records from across the length of the Canadian-American border. An attempt at integrating the often-overlooked Anglo Canadian migration with that of French Canadians, and measuring Canadian emigration both within and beyond boundaries of ethnicity. Observations on instances of "remigration" - the movement to the United States of recent immigrants to Canada - in the time period of concern. From the book jacket: " 'Crossing the 49th Parallel' is the first book to encompass that entire, continent-wide population shift, bringing Canadian migration to the center of both Canadian and U.S. history." "Bruno Ramirez researches the contents of previously unused border records to bring to light the wide variety of local contexts and historical circumstances that led Canadian men, women, and children to cross the border and become key actors in the U.S. economy and society."

The General Textile Strike of 1934 : From Maine to Alabama

An account of 1934's nationwide textile strike in the United States. The trend of unionization that preceded the strike, and the strike's lasting impact on labor and industry in the United States. A specific focus on the impact of this strike in the industrial pockets of the New England states - often overshadowed by the arguably more widespread effect of labor unrest on life and industry in the American South. Includes a case study of Burlington, North Carolina, and the textile mills of Burlington Industries. From University of Missouri Press: "In January 1933, the United Textile Workers of America was in danger of collapse. Its membership was no larger than 15,000; its attempts to organize southern workers had failed disastrously; and it was constantly under attack from rival organizations. Yet, barely eighteen months later, with 300,000 dues-paying members, with newly established or revived branches covering southern cotton textile workers, as well as northern woolen and worsted workers, silk and jacquard weavers, dyers and finishers, even rayon workers, and with locals in 208 cities, towns, and mill villages, UTW was about to embark on what one historian has termed 'the greatest single industrial conflict in the history of American labor.' 'The General Textile Strike of 1934' is the story of that conflict....In 'The General Textile Strike of 1934,' John Salmond tells everyone's story. Looking at the strike from a national and an industrywide perspective, Salmond explains why workers were willing to risk protesting and describes the differences and similarities between southern and northern workers. Setting the strike within a New Deal context and focusing on its impact on the future of labor relations in the industry and on the lives of those who participated in it, 'The General Textile Strike of 1934' fills an important gap in American labor history."

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. Deux lectures différentes d'un même passé..."

L'aême franco-américaine

Un livre majeur d'un défenseur triès passionné de la survivance franco-américaine, et d'un maire ancien de Manchester, New Hamshire. L'auteur de "Catéchisme d'Histoire Franco-Américaine" et "Rois ou Esclaves de la Machine." De l'auteur: "Nous nous proposons de souligner, dans le présent ouvrage, un autre prodige de vitalité française en Amérique, trop inconnu ou méconnu de nos frières de France et du Canada: la survivance française aux Etats-Unis, chez ceux qu'on a justement appelés les Franco-Américains. Dans une premiière partie, nous passerons en revue les faits qui entourent la naissance et le développement de ce groupe franco-américain, dont nous ta?cherons d'analyser l'ame nationale. Une second partie aura pour but de faire ressortir les causes de cette survivance franco-américaine. Au cours de la troisiième partie, nous exposerons en toute sincérité les obstacles qui nous semblent retarder les progriès de ce groupe ethnique et s'opposer le plus directement à la survivance des Franco-Américains."

The Belles of New England : The Women of the Textile Mills and the Families Whose Wealth They Wove

A history of New England women during industrialization, and the lifestyle differences among women of different economic classes. From Thomas Dunne Books: "This is a masterful, definitive, and eloquent look at the enormous cultural and economic impact on America of New England'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's finest families. But the fledgling industry's ever-increasing profits were inextricably bound to the issues of slavery, immigration, and workers' rights....William Moran brings a newsman'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's social development during the period, 'The Belles of New England' casts a new and finer light on this rich tapestry of vast wealth, greed, discrimination, and courage."

Les "Petits Canadas" de la Nouvelle-Angleterre

De l'auteur: "La communauté franco-américaine de Nouvelle-Angleterre, ou «communauté franco», est relativement méconnue en France. L'action qu'elle conduit pour faire reconnaître son identité au sein de la région qui l'accueille offre pourtant un témoignage remarquable de ses capacités de survivance - son « réveil » actuel atteste en outre de la maturité et de l'ouverture de la société américaine d'aujourd'hui qui, apriès avoir perçu comme une menace la présence franco, l'accepte maintenant avec fierté et reconnaissance. Au XXIe siiècle, il y a un avenir pour le fait français en Nouvelle- Angleterre, il y a une place, nous disent aussi les Américains, pour la diversité culturelle au service de la cohésion nationale."

Phonological Variables in a New England French Speech Community

From the author: "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."
