Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Au cours des deux derniers siècles, la Banque de Montréal s’est trouvée au cœur du développement économique et financier du Canada. Publié à l’occasion du bicentenaire de la première banque canadienne, Un destin plus grand que soi puise dans l’iconographie de cette institution financière pour raconter son histoire de ses origines jusqu’à nos jours. Retraçant le passé de la Banque de Montréal grâce à des images d’objets, de ses dirigeants, de documents essentiels et de publicités aujourd’hui tombées dans l’oubli, Laurence B. Mussio illustre son émergence progressive. En dévoilant petit à petit sa perception de sa direction, sa culture, la communauté, ses triomphes et ses difficultés, il offre un aperçu de la personnalité de cette banque, de ses innovations, de ses technologies, de ses projets d’édification de la nation et de son héritage architectural. La mosaïque qui en résulte jette un éclairage unique sur l’expérience vécue par la Banque de Montréal au fil des ans. Si chacun des éléments visuels évoque un épisode particulier aussi divertissant qu’extraordinaire, collectivement, ces objets révèlent une histoire beaucoup plus complète. De la lecture de ce livre se dégage l’image d’une banque qui a façonné l’univers canadien et nord-américain tout en se laissant modeler par lui. À partir d’une gamme incroyablement vaste de documents, Un destin plus grand que soi célèbre l’évolution d’une banque et la manière dont elle a laissé sa marque.

Download or read book History of the Jews in Quebec written by Pierre Anctil and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The presence of Jews in Quebec dates back four centuries. Quebec Jewry, in Montreal in particular, has evolved over time, thanks to successive waves of migration from different regions of the world. The Jews of Quebec belong to a unique society in North America, which they have worked to fashion. The dedication with which they have defended their rights and their extensive achievements in multiple sectors of activity have helped foster diversity in Quebec. This work recounts the different contributions Jews have made over the years, along with the cultural context that encouraged the emergence in Montreal of a Jewish community like no other in North America. This is the first overview of a history that began during the French Regime and continued, through many twists and turns, up to the turn of the twenty-first century.

Download or read book Essays in the History of Canadian Law written by G. Blaine Baker and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1981-01-01 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this volume deal with the legal history of the Province of Quebec, Upper and Lower Canada, and the Province of Canada between the British conquest of 1759 and confederation of the British North America colonies in 1867. The backbone of the modern Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec, this geographic area was unified politically for more than half of the period under consideration. As such, four of the papers are set in the geographic cradle of modern Quebec, four treat nineteenth-century Ontario, and the remaining four deal with the St. Lawrence and Great Lakes watershed as a whole. The authors come from disciplines as diverse as history, socio-legal studies, women's studies, and law. The majority make substantial use of second-language sources in their essays, which shade into intellectual history, social and family history, regulatory history, and political history.

Download or read book Historical Dictionary of the Discovery and Exploration of the Northwest Passage written by Alan Day and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2006-01-03 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Northwest Passage was repeatedly sought for over four centuries. From the first attempt in the late 15th century to Roald Amundsen's famous voyage of 1903-1906 where the feat was first accomplished to expeditions in the late 1940s by the Mounties to discover an even more northern route, author Alan Day covers all aspects of the ongoing quest that excited the imagination of the world. This compendium of explorers, navigators, and expeditions tackles this broad topic with a convenient, but extensive cross-referenced dictionary. A chronology traces the long succession of treks to find the passage, the introduction helps explain what motivated them, and the bibliography provides a means for those wishing to discover more information on this exciting subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dictionaries of national biography are a long-established and significant genre of biographical and historical writing, existing in many forms across the globe. This book brings together practitioners from around the English‑speaking world to reflect on national biographical dictionary projects’ recent cultural journeys, and the challenges presented to them by such developments as the transition to a digital environment, a new alertness to the need to represent diversity, and the rise of transnationalism. Exploring their paths forward, the chapters of this book collectively make a powerful argument for the continued value and importance of large‑scale collaborative biographical dictionary research.

Download or read book From orphan to patriarch written by Edward Roby and published by tredition. This book was released on 2020-12-14 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book researches the origins of an enduring cluster of interrelated North American families first formed in colonial New France in the 17th Century. The narrative tracks the genealogy and history of the families Roberge, Boisvert and Boucher, all prominently found in the author's 11-generation family tree. The investigation delivers circumstantial evidence of mixed ethnogenesis in the formative years of what is now the Canadian province of Quebec. The founding patriarchs most prominently introduced in these pages appear to have been orphans of uncertain origin.

Download or read book Champlain written by Raymonde Litalien and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2004-11-17 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the definitive reference on Champlain and the birth of French America. It discusses not only the beginnings of L'Acadie, its development, and the difficulties of colonization but also looks at France during Champlain's time and analyses how he has been remembered. Lavishly illustrated, Champlain brings together the thirty-two maps attributed to him, reproduced for the first time in colour, as well as illustrations of numerous rare artifacts, documents, and a selection of drawings by Champlain. A tenacious, multitalented individual, Samuel de Champlain was a cartographer, an explorer, and, ultimately, governor of the French colonies in the new world. His extensive writings, largely relating to his voyages, include the only known accounts of the Laurentian colony during the first quarter of the seventeenth century. Contributors include Bernard Allaire, Pauline Arseneault, Bernard Barbiche, Maurice Basque, Alain Beaulieu, Pierre Berthiaume, Gervais Carpin, Jean-Pierre Chrestien, Edward H.
