Turning Back the Fenians: New Brunswick's Last Colonial Campaign By Robert Dallison 2006 | 132 Pages | ISBN: 0864924615 | EPUB | 4 MB In the early 1860s, Irish immigrants in the United States were eager to help the Fenian brotherhood overthrow the British in Ireland. The American Fenians' mission: to invade British North America and hold it hostage. New Brunswick, with its large Irish population and undefended frontier, was a perfect target. The book tells how, in the spring of 1866, a thousand Fenians massed along the St. Croix River and spread terror among New Brunswickers. When the lieutenant-governor called in British soldiers and a squadron of warships, the Fenians saw that New Brunswick was no longer an easy target, and they turned their efforts against central Canada. The Fenian "attacks" and the demand for home defence fanned the already red-hot political debate, and a year later, in July 1867, New Brunswick joined Confederation.Turning Back the Feniansis volume eight in the New Brunswick Military Heritage Series.

Kert 2005 | 105 Pages | ISBN: 0864924429 | EPUB | 4 MB The word "pirate" conjures up many Hollywood images, butTrimming Yankee Sailsby Faye Kert paints a very different picture.

Jennifer Ballengee, "Trauma and Literature in an Age of Globalization" English | ISBN: 0367520818 | 2021 | 264 pages | PDF | 22 MB While globalization is often associated with economic and social progress, it has also brought new forms of terrorism, permanent states of emergency, demographic displacement, climate change, and other "natural" disasters. Given these contemporary concerns, one might also view the current time as an age of traumatism. Yet what―or how―does the traumatic event mean in an age of global catastrophe? This volume explores trauma theory in an age of globalization by means of the practice of comparative literature. The essays and interviews in this volume ask how literary studies and the literary anticipate, imagine, or theorize the current global climate, especially in an age when the links between violence, amorphous traumatic events, and economic concerns are felt increasingly in everyday experience. Trauma and Literature in an Age of Globalization turns a literary perspective upon the most urgent issues of globalization―problems of borders, language, inequality, and institutionalized violence―and considers from a variety of perspectives how such events impact our lived experience and its representation in language and literature. |
