| Summary |
"Based largely on the archival documents left behind by the lay and ecclesiastical leaders who organized the celebrations of Champion and Laval, Ronald Rudin's study describes the complicated process of staging these spectacles. The vast array of leaders - lay and clerical, French- and English-speaking - rarely saw eye to eye about either the form or the goal of commemorative celebration. Accordingly, the tens of thousands who came out to view these affairs witnessed events with numerous messages. An examination of the four spectacles, which took place over a period of thirty years, provides an opportunity to view both changes in the nature of commemorative celebrations across the western world and tensions within Canadian society."--Jacket. |
