This paper focuses on the socio-political ideas conveyed by Pax Romana in the Province of Quebec. Although this organization presented itself as a simple base of exchange between Catholics, the Federation of Fribourg did not limit itself to planning very general meetings in various places and promote an abstract dialogue between nations : it also disseminated a specific ideology. It offered a conceptual framework and a certain political orientation to those who participated in its activities. By revisiting its ideological background and identifying who were its most important promoters, this paper underlines the forms of exchange that structured Pax Romana from the inside and, by the same token, helps to locate its members on a particular map of the Catholic intellectual world from 1930 to 1950.

Louis Veuillot, well-known among the ultramontane journalistic circle, was also a recognized writer. In colleges, his texts were included into the curriculum of colleges and also in activities outside classrooms. This paper studies the integration of Veuillot's works in literary and religious education for three periods, 1840-1871,1910-1930 and 1950-1970. Whereas Veuillot was not a part of the curriculum in the nineteenth century, the beginning of the twentieth century was the golden age of Veuillot's distribution in colleges, especially during the centennial celebrations in 1913. In these years, the writer became an example for young people, yet the 1950's spelled the end of his teaching. Nevertheless, during a few decades, Louis Veuillot was part of the literary culture among college students. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Digital publishing is still in its infancy, but it is useful to relate what might be called the prologue to the history of digital publishing in French in Quebec. This article presents the actors who have contributed, and continue to contribute, to the transition from print to digital culture in Quebec. It offers a panoramic view of this transition in the various publishing genres from newspapers and magazines, to journals, books, theses, dictionaries, bibliographical databases, and legal texts. A typology of the actors working in these different genres emerges, comprising publisher, aggregator (general or specialist), distributor, production technician, retailer, and librarian. The builders of Quebec's digital publishing milieu are acknowledged through brief descriptions of their projects and enterprises. Many of them have displayed a notable capacity to engage in the development of new models for the production and diffusion of culture and research. The quality of their products, services, and expertise has been recognized several times over through international partnerships and co-operative ventures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes L'Entraide missionnaire from the perspective of its networks which became international over the course of the 1960s. This internationalization was most visible in the collaborations established with Third world theologians and practitioners. From 1968 onwards, L'Entraide radically changed its worldview, taking sides with the poor and marginalized. Notions like consciousness-raising, dialogue, inculturation, and liberation were at the heart of the organization's activities hundreds of Québécois committed to sociopolitical change and community organizations attended. Thus, L'Entraide acted as a catalyst for Québécois to become familiar with different schools of thought and practices, but also to integrate these new ways of thinking collectively about the contemporary world.

The article discusses French-Canadian newspaper coverage of the Dieppe Raid, an Allied World War II operation in Dieppe, France on August 19, 1942 which involved predominately Canadian forces. It comments on the focus of coverage on the French-Canadian regiment les Fusiliers Mont-Royal, and how this focus shaped the myth in Québec that French-Canadian forces were the primary victims. The author considers Canadian World War II propaganda and reflects on themes of strategy, heroism, and loss in newspaper coverage.

Like the text books they complement, dictionaries are widely used tools in schools. This article examines which dictionaries were authorised for use in schools from 1880 to 1960 by the Department of Public Instruction, the definitive authority for education in Quebec in the absence of a government department, and what use was made of them. During the period examined in this study, dictionaries had to receive endorsement, in the same manner as all text books for francophone public schools, from the Catholic Committee of the Council of Public Instruction, which was comprised half of Catholic bishops from Quebec and the other half from the Catholic laity. Text books and dictionaries were subjected to the meticulous and critical examination of the clerical authorities, who had the text modified or removed illustrations that did not seem to conform to orthodoxy in their eyes before granting their approval. Even though other dictionaries were circulating in Quebec, notably those of the publishers Mame, Quillet-Flammarion, and Hatier, it is the Larousse dictionary, particularly the Dictionnaire complet de la langue française with Canadian supplement, that dominated the period and that made the Montreal publisher Beauchemin its fortune. This study shows that the imported French book could only be distributed in Quebec and in Canada as long as the content met the moral standards of the Catholic Committee of the Council of Public Instruction.
