The Centre for Canadian Studies in partnership with the St. Catharines Public Library presents their third Canada Talks event featuring Professor Gregory Betts.
“Unerasing Ourselves: St. Catharines, Canadian Literature, and the Past”
Wednesday February 25 starting at 6:15 p.m.
Central Library, Mills Room, Downtown St. Catharines
This talk attends to the troubling question: what becomes of the nation when we decolonize, when we really take our conflicts head on? By looking at the history and counter-history of St. Catharines, we can start to imagine a strategy of reading Canada through its conflicts, without erasing any, while highlighting the various efforts to erase evidence of conflict. “Unerasing Ourselves” traces out a series of remarkable, improbably, and fascinating links between such authors are Frederick Douglas, John Richardson, Thomas D’Arcy McGee, and Harriet Tubman, amongst others. Provocatively, I argue that we must reconsider erasure as a central dynamic of the Canadian Social contract. For the sake of the future, it is time to think more consciously of the messy conflicts shaping this land.
We are pleased to share that Professor Elizabeth Sauer will be speaking at the Centre for Medieval and Renaissance Speaker Series on Monday, October 27th!
