Landscapes and Landmarks of Canada
Author: Maeve Conrick
Publisher: Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press
ISBN: 177112203X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 448
Book Description
The image of the “land” is an ongoing trope in conceptions of Canada—from the national anthem and the flag to the symbols on coins—the land and nature remain linked to the Canadian sense of belonging and to the image of the nation abroad. Linguistic landscapes reflect the multi-faceted identities and cultural richness of the nations. Earlier portrayals of the land focused on unspoiled landscape, depicted in the paintings of the Group of Seven, for example. Contemporary notions of identity, belonging, and citizenship are established, contested, and legitimized within sites and institutions of public culture, heritage, and representation that reflect integration with the land, transforming landscape into landmarks. The Highway of Heroes originating at Canadian Forces Base Trenton in Ontario and Grosse Île and the Irish Memorial National Historic Site in Québec are examples of landmarks that transform landscape into a built environment that endeavours to respect the land while using it as a site to commemorate, celebrate, and promote Canadian identity. Similarly in literature and the arts, the creation of the built environment and the interaction among those who share it is a recurrent theme. This collection includes essays by Canadian and international scholars whose engagement with the theme stems from their disciplinary perspectives as well as from their personal and professional experience—rooted, at least partially, in their own sense of national identity and in their relationship to Canada.

Negotiating the Past
Author: Christopher James Taylor
Publisher: McGill Queens Univ
ISBN: 9780773507135
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 246
Book Description
Negotiating the Past is a history of the Canadian federal government's historic parks and sites program. C.J. Taylor traces the progress of the program through its beginning with nationalist organizations in the 1880s, its formal establishment in 1919, and its full bloom in the 1960s. He examines the continuing attempts to establish a policy for the preservation and treatment of federally recognised heritage properties and argues that the program was affected by the dynamic interplay between the heritage movement and its various local componenents, the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada, the National Parks Branch, and elected officials. This process of negotiation, "the politics of historic sites," explains how competing regional, local, racial, and ethnic perspectives on the importance of events in Canadian history determined the selection, interpretation, and development of historic sites.
