Warring Sovereignties explores the battle between religious and non-secular cultures for control of the university in the 1960s. Canon law, with particular emphasis on Oblate norms, was a clear expression of Catholic sovereignty in the university. While this sovereignty conditioned Oblate governance choices, the Government of Ontario became increasingly keen on reforming the University of Ottawa into a non-denominational corporation.Government pressure was coupled with shifting cultural expectations of the university's social role, while an increasingly lay professorate helped put pressure on the Oblates from within. These twin pressures for removing religious control irked the Oblates, who put up stiff resistance, betraying their reticence to the liberalization of higher education. While the government valued social policy, the Oblates focused on educating individuals.Although the Oblates ultimately lost, history is as relevant as ever, and this book comes at a time when social planning is becoming increasingly prevalent within universities.Published in English.

A young Canadian marches over the Pyrenees and enters into history by joining the International Brigades-men and women from around the world who volunteered to fight against fascism in the Spanish Civil War. This new edition of Ted Allan's novel, This Time a Better Earth, reintroduces readers to the electrifying milieu of the Spanish Civil War and Madrid, which for a short time in the 1930s became the epicentre of a global struggle between democracy and fascism. This Time a Better Earth, first published in 1939, tells the story of Canadian Bob Curtis from the time of his arrival in Spain and the idealism and trials of the international volunteers. Allan's novel achieves the distinction of being both a work of considerable literary and historical significance and a real page-turner.This is the first installment of a series of titles to be published in the Canadian Literature Collection under the Canada and the Spanish Civil War banner. This is a large-scale project devoted to the recovery and presentation of Canadian cultural production about the Spanish Civil War (spanishcivilwar.ca), directed by Bart Vautour and Emily Robins Sharpe.

In The Lion's Cub, her 2018 Symons Medal address, eminent Canadian historian Margaret MacMillan examines the impact of the First War World on Canadian Confederation. With her characteristic flair and gift for telling detail, Margaret MacMillan shows the paradox of Canada's experience in the First World War. On the one hand, the Great War, as it was originally known, brought Canada closer to nationhood and gave many Canadians a greater sense of identity. On the other hand, the Great War also marked a time when Confederation was shaken and very nearly came apart. Its divisive impact continued to be felt throughout the twentieth century. And can still be felt today, in Canada's national political life, and in the relationship between Quebec and the rest of the country.YetCanada survived, and continues to survive. And Margaret MacMillan concludes thatthisis the great strength of Confederation.The Lion's Cubsuggests Canada's endurance should be recognized for the achievement it is. In a world where political boundaries are often as artificial as Canada's, the ability of our "e;improbable country"e; to survive and prosper may be an example of hope for a wider world.The Symons Medal is one of Canada's most prestigious honours. It is presented annually by the Confederation Centre of the Arts to honour persons who have made an exceptional contribution to Canadian life.Bilingual Edition-Historienne et crivaine canadienne de rputation internationale, Margaret MacMmillan aborde la Premire Guerre mondiale et ses rpercussions paradoxales sur le Canada dans son discours prononc en 2018 lors de la remise de la mdaille Symons et intitulLe lionceau. Avec son style caractristique et son talent inn de narratrice, Margaret MacMillan a rvl le paradoxe saisissant de l'exprience canadienne durant la Premire Guerre mondiale. En effet, si la Grande Guerre, comme on l'appelait l'poque, a sensibilis le Canada l'ide de nation et a confr bon nombre de Canadiens un sentiment accru d'identit, elle a aussi symbolis une poque o la Confdration canadienne fut fortement branle et faillit mme se dsagrger. De plus, les risques de fracture rsultant de la Grande Guerre perdurrent durant tout le XXesicle. Et aujourd'hui encore, ses effets continuent de se faire sentir dans la vie politique nationale canadienne, particulirement dans les relations entre le Qubec et le reste du pays.Pourtant, le Canada a survcu et continue de survivre. Selon Margaret MacMillan, c'est d'ailleurs la plus grande force de la Confdration canadienne. Dans son ouvrage intitulLe lionceau, elle suggre que l'endurance et la rsilience du Canada devraient tre imprativement reconnues leur juste valeur. Dans un monde o les frontires politiques sont souvent aussi artificielles que celles du Canada, la capacit survivre et prosprer de notre pays improbable est un brillant exemple d'espoir pour un monde plus vaste et plus divers.La mdaille Symons est une des rcompenses honorifiques les plus prestigieuses du Canada. Chaque anne, elle est remise par le Centre des arts de la Confdration une personne distingue en reconnaissance de sa contribution exceptionnelle la vie canadienne.dition bilingue
