Book Description
Nationalist movements in Scotland and Quebec are enjoying a resurgence. Hierarchies of Belonging explores the construction of national identity and nationalism and its effect on how citizens of Scotland and Quebec understand their relationship to the nation and the state. Ailsa Henderson analyses each nation's linguistic, racial, cultural, economic, and political diversity within a historical and contemporary context. Challenging the assumption that nationalism in Scotland can be characterized as "civic" in contrast to an "ethnic" model in Quebec, Henderson adopts a more complex model of national identity that distinguishes between nationalistic rhetoric, which is invariably civic in form, and public understandings of belonging, which tend to rely on ethnic markers. In Hierarchies of Belonging she demonstrates that nationalist rhetoric and a sense of belonging affect how citizens feel about the state, the nation, and each other. ... Read more

Book Description
Few studies of imposed social change and minority education have considered the effects of nationalist and self-initiated social change on schooling. This book explores the impact of 20 years of such efforts. Following an overview and analysis of the historical, socio-economic and political forces which have shaped Quebecois cultural identity and their educational system, the author presents an ethnographic case study of two secondary schools and the surrounding community in a predominantly French-speaking, lower-middle-class district of Montreal. The focus is on how socio-economic and educational changes have affected the classroom behavior, perceptions, and aspirations of Quebecois students-particularly in the light of the subtle yet persistant gap in school achievement between English and French-speaking students. ...

Book Description
In his 1963 debut essay for the militant Quebec journal, Patri pris,André Brochu invoked the figure of the sixteenth century skeptic Michel de Montaigne in the name of what Ralph Waldo Emerson, responding to the same over a century early, had called, "an original relation to the universe"--"Écrire," wrote Brochu, "c'est redéfinir la relation originelle do l'homme à l'univers, c'est, comm émagnifquement Montaigne, 'faire l'homme'…" By tracing the idealism of 19th century American and 20th century Quebec writers back to Montaigne and his rejection of Aristotelian and Scholastic reason, The Renaissance of Impasse offers an alternate history to that found in much (Post) Romantic criticism, wherein modern skepticism tens to be identified with, and so in a sense confined to, the project of Enlightenment reason Rey works from Thomas Carlyle, Emerson and Herman Melville to Huber Aquin, Réjean Ducharme and Victory-Lévy Beasulieu serve to define and to refine the sense of an impasse--peronal, cultural, spiritual, historica,l and political--which accompanies the "modern" drive to renaissance. ...
