La vraisemblance historique dans le roman Nicolas Perrot de Georges Boucher de BouchervilleTremblay, Étienne 10 1900 (has links)
Nicolas Perrot ou les coureurs des bois sous la domination française (1889) est un roman qui évoque la vie d’un coureur de bois à l’époque de la Nouvelle-France (autour de 1669). L’auteur George Boucher de Boucherville est bien connu pour son roman Une de perdue, deux de trouvées, mais le roman à l’étude dans ce mémoire a longtemps été oublié avant d’avoir été édité pour la première fois en un seul volume en 1996. Comme devant tout roman historique, le lecteur doit se questionner sur le rapport que l’auteur entretient avec la vérité historique. Ce mémoire se penche sur l’authenticité des informations qui se trouvent dans le roman. L’analyse se base sur une recherche sur l’œuvre, son auteur, le contexte littéraire et les deux époques pertinentes (Nouvelle-France et Québec du XIXe siècle). Ces mises en contexte conduisent à l’analyse du roman (appuyée par l’ethnologie récente) qui permet de conclure que Boucherville s’éloigne à plusieurs égards des portraits caricaturaux des coureurs de bois et des Autochtones qui sont monnaie courante à son époque. / Nicolas Perrot ou les coureurs des bois sous la domination française (1889) is a novel about the life of a coureur de bois (french fur trader) during the New France era (around 1669). The author Georges Boucher de Boucherville is well known for his novel Une de perdue, deux de trouvées, but the work studied here has been long forgotten before it was first published in a single tome in 1996. As with every historical novel, readers have to inquire into the relationship the author has with historical truths. This master’s thesis focuses on the authenticity of the information contained in the novel. The analysis is based on research on the author and his work, the literary context and the two relevant periods (New France and nineteenth-century Quebec). Following these inquiries, we analyse the novel (guided by modern day ethnology) and come to the conclusion that Boucherville’s work deviates from the clichés usually associated with coureurs de bois and indigenous people.

Claiming the land : Indians, goldseekers, and the rush to British ColumbiaMarshall, Daniel Patrick 05 1900 (has links)
During the Fraser River gold rush of 1858, over 30,000 goldseekers invaded the Aboriginal
lands of southern British Columbia, setting off Native-White conflicts similar to the Indian Wars of
the American Pacific Northwest. Prior to the establishment of the Colony of British Columbia, 19
November 1858, British sovereignty was marginal and the Fraser gold fields clearly an extension of
the American West. The Native world was not defined by the 49th parallel, nor the kind of violence
that crossed the international border with the expansion of the California mining frontier. These
goldseekers, in prosecuting military-like campaigns, engaged in significant battles with First Nations,
broke the back of full-scale Native resistance in both southern British Columbia and eastern
Washington State, and brokered Treaties of Peace on foreign soil. The very roots of Native
sovereignty, rights and unrest, current in the province today, may be traced to the 1858 gold rush.
This dissertation maintains that British Columbia's 'founding' event has not been explored
due to the transboundary nature of the subject. It has little or no presence in Canadian historiography
as presently written. The year 1858 represents a period of exceptional flux and population mobility
within an ill-defined space. I argue that the key to the Fraser Rush is to be found south of the border:
in geographic space (the Pacific Slope) and in place (California mining frontier). It examines the three
principal cultures that inhabited the middle ground of the gold fields, those of the Fur Trade
(Hudson's Bay Company and Native), Californian, and British world views. The year 1858
represents a power struggle on the frontier: a struggle of local Indian power, the entrance of an
overwhelming outsiders' power, transplanted locally and directed largely from California, and
regional and long-distance British power. It is a clash of two "frontier" creations: that of "California
culture" and "fur trade culture" that not only produced violence but the formal inauguration of
colonialism, Indian reserves, and ultimately the expansion of Canada to the Pacific Slope.
