HIST 494 - Quebec and Canada since 1867

(3 credits)
Prerequisite: One of the following: HIST 111, HIST 112, HIST 131, HIST 132, HIST 221, HIST 222; or consent of instructor
This course examines the love-hate relationship that emerged between French Canada and English Canada in the years between Confederation and the 1995 referendum on separatism in Quebec. How did francophones and anglophones negotiate coexistence within Canada in these years? What are the main sources of separatist feeling in French Quebec? Themes that will be examined include the economic dominance of English Canada over French Canada, the transformation of Quebecois nationalism, and the importance of language protection to French-Canadian culture. May be taken for graduate-level credit.
