Ce mémoire a pour but de documenter et de comprendre le schème d’établissement des Iroquoiens du Saint-Laurent qui ont séjourné sur le site Irving à la fin du Sylvicole supérieur. La recherche a donc été organisée en trois volets. La première interrogation portait sur la compréhension du schème d’établissement à l’échelle du site. Pour atteindre l’objectif, une analyse de l’assemblage culturel du site a été effectuée et l’emplacement du site a été étudié. Le deuxième volet portait sur des relations possibles entre deux villages iroquoiens contemporains de la région, Droulers et Mailhot-Curran, et le site Irving. Des comparaisons morpho-stylistiques de la céramique ont donc été faites entre les trois sites. Finalement, le troisième volet de recherche était d’évaluer le type d’établissement du site Irving. Des comparatifs entre sites iroquoiens du Sylvicole supérieur récent ont donc été effectués. Nous avons répertorié divers types de sites documentés tels que des villages, des hameaux, des hameaux saisonniers et des camps spécialisés. Nous sommes venus à la conclusion que le site Irving est un hameau saisonnier horticole qui était probablement rattaché à un village environnant, possiblement celui de Mailhot-Curran. / The purpose of this thesis is to document and understand the settlements pattern of the St. Lawrence Iroquoians with a particular focus on those living at the Irving site during the Terminal late Woodland period. The research is comprised of three parts. The first research objective was to document the settlement pattern characteristics at the Irving site. In order to achieve this objective, an analysis of the site's cultural materials was carried out in reference to the site’s size and location. The second research topic focused on the possible relationships between two contemporary archaeological villages in the region, Droulers and Mailhot-Curran, and the Irving site, in which a morpho-stylistic comparison of the ceramics was conducted between these three sites. Finally, the third research topic focused on identifying the type of settlement site of the Irving site. Comparisons between Iroquoians sites of the Terminal late Woodland period and Irving were therefore carried out. In exploring various types of sites documented elsewhere, such as villages, hamlets, seasonal hamlets and specialized camps. We came to the conclusion that the Irving site appears to be have been a seasonal horticultural hamlet that was probably associated with a nearby village, possibly Mailhot-Curran.

The central idea of this study is an examination of the transformation of the image of the poet in different generations. My thesis problem is that the poet is dynamic, reflecting both the self-image and reception of society at different times. I collected data from many different sources- the primary sources were memoirs, poetry, short stories, novels and original documents from the Canadian Jewish Congress Archives and by speaking with historians about A.M. Klein, Irving Layton and Leonard Cohen. The secondary sources used were scholarly books about the poets articles from the Canadian Jewish press and documentaries. I used literary analysis for the poetry and I took a social-historical approach in the examination of the poets' relationship to the community and biography. The social historical approach and the literary approach were both used in this study to analyze the succession of Canadian Jewish poets. As an original contribution to the field, this study categorizes the three poets in a succession: Klein is the Jewish poet, Layton is the Canadian Jewish poet and Cohen is the spiritual guru, all reflecting the changing situation for Canadian Jews. I examine the first generation poet in this succession of gifted Canadian Jewish poets, A.M. Klein, the second generation, Irving Layton and the third generation poet, Leonard Cohen. Specifically, I argue that the roles and the reception to these poets have changed in the Jewish press as a result of changing times. As the years progress and the situation for worldwide Jewry becomes more stable with greater tolerance in a multicultural society, the poet moves away from the identification as a Jewish poet. In Klein's generation he is labeled as a Jewish poet. Layton fights the label of a Jewish poet and through controversy and celebrity he is recognized as a Canadian Jewish poet. Leonard Cohen re-defines the category of a Canadian Jewish poet in favor of a spiritual guru. This study provides an overview of the times and the issues that each poet faced in their generation. The first part of each chapter is devoted to a brief biography and an exploration of the way the Jewish community responded to the poets in terms of roles that they wanted them to undertake and the own reception to the poets in the local Jewish press. It is interesting that each poet served a different function in different generations as a response to the needs of the community. The second section of each chapter is an examination of the poets' self-image as depicted in their writing. All of the poets viewed themselves in the same manner, as spokesmen, controversial figures and as modern poets similar to ancient biblical figures. This section includes the ways the poets viewed their relationship with the community and their relationship to Judaism as a way of shaping their self-perception.

The major purpose of this study was to describe and analyze the business and higher education partnership program in one Texas community college. Secondary purposes were to describe and analyze (a) the premise of business and higher education partnerships; (b) the planning, organization, and administrative structure in a selected community college; (c) the educational benefits received by both businesses and their employees who are involved in cooperative partnerships in general and at this community college; (d) the future challenges and opportunities for partnerships at other levels of American higher education; and (e) the needed research to evaluate business and higher education partnerships. The five chapters comprising the study include an introduction, a review of literature, the methods and procedures, a presentation and analysis of data, and the summary, conclusions, interpretation, and recommendations of the study.

Master of Arts / Department of History / David A. Graff / Michael Ramsay / In 1988, Irving Brown received the Medal of Freedom from President Ronald Reagan for playing a crucial role in breaking the hold of international communism over postwar Western Europe. By doing so, he can truly be called one of the architects of Western democracy. Brown also made extraordinary efforts to fight international Communism in French North Africa during the 1950s. This paper seeks to answer the question of why these efforts in North Africa failed, and it will show the limits of American labor‘s international influence during the Cold War, in particular in French North Africa. Irving Brown successfully strengthened anti-Communist unions in Europe, and had the financial backing of the Truman Administration for those projects. However, Brown‘s efforts to build anti-Communist trade unions in Tunisia and Algeria did not have the backing of the U.S. government under the Eisenhower Administration. Instead, the AFL-CIO, with Brown as its representative, attempted to use the non-Communist International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU) to influence the nationalist movements of Tunisia and Algeria through their respective national unions, the Union générale tunisienne du travail (UGTT) and the Union générale des travailleurs algériens (UGTA). Disagreements within the ICFTU severely inhibited Brown‘s effectiveness and prevented him from fully realizing the AFL-CIO‘s policy goals in North Africa. Brown was overly dependent on Tunisia for his operations with the Algeria labor movement, and the ICFTU was incapable of providing adequate support to the Algerians to compete with its Communist rival, the World Federation of Trade Unions. To the extent that independent Tunisia was Western-oriented, Brown was successful in his efforts. However, in the long run, Brown failed as an architect of Western democracy, as Tunisia became a dictatorship with a socialist economy. In Algeria, the state of war forced the UGTA to turn to the Eastern bloc despite Brown‘s personal dedication to North African independence and development. Furthermore, in independence, Algeria‘s government embraced socialism and single party rule.
