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 -

The Franco-Americans of New England : Dreams and Realities
English translation of Yves Roby's "Les Franco-Américains de la Nouvelle-Angleterre: Reêves et réalités" - a comprehensive historical text on French Canada's immigrants to New England and their development of a Franco American identity. Covers the period from 1840 (or near the beginning of en masse Canadian emigration) to 1976. One of the most exhaustive texts on Franco Americans to date, Roby's work focuses its attention largely on "la survivance" and the prevailing, evolving attitudes toward it in New England. Roby writes, "This work will attempt to describe the conceptions that the French-Canadian emigrants in New England and their descendants have of themselves." From McGill-Queen's University Press: "Between 1840 and 1930, approximately 900,000 people left Quebec for the United States, with the number of French-Canadian colonies in New England's industrial cities growing rapidly. The first generation of immigrants, who considered themselves French Canadians living in the United States, lived outside of American society as much as possible and sought to recreate their lost motherland. Their children's situation was different, however, since they did not see themselves as a community creating a distinct society on American soil.... What became of these millions of immigrant descendants?... Roby seeks to explain the genesis and evolution of this group and raises insightful questions regarding not only the Franco-Americans but also the integration of ethnocultural groups into Canadian society and the future of North American Francophonies."Tags Adams MA, Bedford NH, Berlin NH, Beverly MA, Boston MA, Bristol CT, Burlington VT, Business and Economics, Cambridge MA, Central Falls RI, Champlain NY, Chelsea MA, Chicopee MA, Community: Customs and Social Life, Criticism and Review, Danielson CT, Emigration and Immigration, Ethnicity and Collective Identity, Farming and Agriculture, Forestry, Gardner MA, Gloucester MA, Haverhill MA, Language and Linguistics, Ludlow MA, Lynn MA, Maine, Massachusetts, Meriden CT, Nashua NH, New England, New Hampshire, Newton MA, Nonfiction, Nonfiction -- History -- General, North Adams MA, North Brookfield MA, Ogdensburg NY, Pittsfield MA, Plattsburgh NY, Portland ME, Prince Edward Island, Providence RI, Putnam CT, Québec, Religion, Rhode Island, Salem MA, Southbridge MA, Spencer MA, Springfield MA, St. Albans VT, Suncook NH, Vermont, Waltham MA, Ware MA, Warwick RI, Waterbury CT, Westerly RI, Willimantic CT -
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.

The French-Canadian Outlook : A Brief Account of the Unknown North Americans
Historical survey of French Canada and its people from the 16th century to the end of World War II. Wade illustrates political and military history, emphasizing the conflicts within a singular French-and-British Canada and ending his text, in the culmination of its title, with some thoughts on the "Quebec problem." From Wade's preface to the original edition of the text: "The present work, which is an epitome of a more detailed and fully documented study still in progress ["The French Canadians, 1760-1945" (Toronto, 1955)], is an attempt to present for the general reader the significant facts about French Canada, so far as they could be uncovered by disinterested and objective investigation, without recourse to the wishful thinking that in the past has made the standard English and French histories of Canada so dissimilar as to suggest that they were histories of two different countries. It is my hope that this book will serve to dispel some of the misunderstandings between English and French North Americans."Tags Business and Economics, Canada, Ethnicity and Collective Identity, Exploration and Colonization, France, Government and Politics, Great Britain, Language and Linguistics, Maine, New Brunswick, New England, Nonfiction, Nonfiction -- French in North America, Nonfiction -- History -- General, Québec, Religion, St. Albans VT, St. Lawrence River Valley, United States, War -

Franco-Americans in Vermont : A Civil Rights Perspective
From the members of the Vermont Advisory Committee: "The report presents an historic overview of the French-Canadian presence in Vermont over the past 300 years, a discussion of the size of the State's Franco-American population, and the different definitions and techniques used in identifying Franco-Americans. In the chapter on Status, data are presented which demonstrate statistical disparities between Franco-Americans and the Anglo population in education and employment. Societal attitudes reflected in scholarly works and in fiction are surveyed as well. Franco-Americans have been the victims of anti-Catholic, anti-foreign sentiment in the past, and of negative stereotyping in much of the 20th century. To determine whether these attitudes result in actions (discrimination), which in turn result in the observed disparities, is a formidable process, requiring additional historical research and analyses of educational and employment practices. Through this report, the advisory committee hopes to identify directions for future study."Tags Burlington VT, Business and Economics, Demography, Emigration and Immigration, Ethnicity and Collective Identity, Exploration and Colonization, Government and Politics, Greenville NH, Labor History, Middlebury VT, Mills and Mill Work, Montpelier VT, New Hampshire, Nonfiction, Nonfiction -- Demography, Québec, Religion, Social History, St. Albans VT, Swanton VT, Vermont, Winooski VT -

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 Need for Bilingual Education in the Schools of Vermont
Argument toward implementing a bilingual education program in the public schools of the state of Vermont. Written in the context of the 1968 United States congressional discussions about funding bilingual education in general, and the scope of languages to which congress would propose attention. Uses Vermont as a case study in language demographics. Presents the author's collection of data concerning Vermont language usage, geographic distribution of children with limited English-speaking ability, and other factors pertinent to the federal legislation in question. While the dissertation engages bilingual education as a national phenomenon involving many languages other than English, the specific case of Vermont orientates the author toward the language realities of that state, the bulk of non-English speakers being represented in populations of French-speaking Franco Americans there. Contains an overview of scholarship on bilingualism.Tags Acculturation and Assimilation, Albany VT, Alburg VT, Bakersfield VT, Barnet VT, Barre VT, Barton VT, Bennington VT, Berkshire VT, Brandon VT, Brattleboro VT, Brighton VT, Brownington VT, Burlington VT, Canaan VT, Charleston VT, Charlotte VT, Clarendon VT, Colchester VT, Coventry VT, Demography, Derby VT, Eden VT, Education, Enosburg Falls VT, Essex VT, Ethnicity and Collective Identity, Fair Haven VT, Fairfax VT, Ferrisburgh VT, Franklin VT, Georgia VT, Government and Politics, Hanover NH, Hardwick VT, Highgate VT, Holland VT, Hyde Park VT, Irasburg VT, Jay VT, Jericho VT, Language and Linguistics, Lowell VT, Lyndon VT, Manchester VT, Middlebury VT, Middlesex VT, Milton VT, Montgomery VT, Montpelier VT, Morristown VT, New Haven VT, Newbury VT, Newport VT, Nonfiction, Nonfiction -- Education, Nonfiction -- Government and Politics, Nonfiction -- Language and Linguistics, Norton VT, Orange VT, Orleans County VT, Pownal VT, Proctor VT, Putney VT, Richford VT, Richmond VT, Rockingham VT, Rutland VT, Shelburne VT, Sheldon VT, South Burlington VT, Springfield VT, St. Albans VT, St. Johnsbury VT, Stowe VT, Sutton VT, Swanton VT, Troy VT, Vergennes VT, Vermont, Walden VT, West Rutland VT, Westfield VT, Westford VT, Westminster VT, Whiting VT, Williamstown VT, Wilmington VT, Windsor VT, Wolcott VT -
