Harold B茅rub茅聽- Associate member of the axis "Digital culture, art, literature, and performance"

Project title : "Lire la ville 脿 travers ses journaux : Montr茅al et sa presse 脿 grand tirage (1884-1929)"

The project's main goal is to better understand the close relationships聽between the wide-circulation press and the urban environment by exploring the case of Montreal from the mid-1980s to the end of the 1990s. More specifically, the objective聽is to understand how the city 芦 makes 禄 newspapers 鈥撀� by allowing the existence of the wide-circulation press 鈥� and the way in which newspapers 芦 make 禄 the city 鈥� particularly by staging it in their stories. To this end, they will closely study the role of newspapers as whole urban institutions (as businesses and as material realities in the urban fabric); as actors in the major political debates that agitate the urban society; as vectors through which the city's neighborhoods' influential representations and its metropolitan ambitions are constructed; and, finally, as a source of practical information for the citizen who聽wishes to find himself in the "urban jungle", in these evolving industrial metropolises聽that characterize the studied period of time.聽

Mary Anne Poutanen (PI) and Sherry Olson (collaborator) are the recipients of an [2020-2024] for $73,946. Their project, 鈥淧ublic Houses and Hidden Networks of Sociability in Mid-19^th-Century Montreal,鈥� focuses on the networks of sociability of women who operated public houses 鈥� from the modest corner tavern to the top-of-the-line hotel 鈥� between 1840 and 1860, a period of political and social upheaval. The fine capillaries of communication and exchange were critical to relations of trust in which trade, social behaviour, and politics were grounded. Poutanen鈥檚 analysis of their marriages and residential moves will uncover half-hidden strategies that families employed in time of need and disclose networks of collaboration, and, among their children, a net upward social mobility. Olson鈥檚 contribution centres on methods for making 鈥榲isible鈥� these social networks and evaluating the interdependence of households.

Julie Ravary-Pilon - BMO Postdoctoral Fellow聽2019-2020

The study day 脡tat des lieux sur la recherche et l'enseignement du cin茅ma qu茅b茅cois intends to measure drastic and underground change that have modelled the political and social media landscape of cinema in Quebec since the turn of the last millenium.

This activity will engage in a dialogue between twenty specialists of Quebecois cinema working in varied institutions (in Quebec, in Canada, in the United States and internationally).

The event is articulated around four reflection axes - "research", "teaching", "archives", "publications." The first three will take the form of thematic roundtables, where each intervenor will be called upon to present challenges encountered during its research and its teachings. For the publications axis, a networking evening centered on editorial issues of knowledge diffusion will also be organized on the eve of study day.
