Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Sonja Boons heritage is complicated. Although she has lived in Canada for more than 30 years, she was born in the UK to a Surinamese mother and a Dutch father. An invitation to join a family tree project inspired a journey to the heart of the histories that have shaped her identity, as she sought to answer two questions that have dogged her over the years: Where does she belong? And who does she belong to? Boons archival researchin Suriname, the Netherlands, the UK, and Canadabrings her opportunities to reflect on the possibilities and limitations of the archives themselves, the tangliness of oceanic migration, histories, the meaning of legacy, music, love, freedom, memory, ruin, and imagination. Ultimately, she reflected on the relevance of our past to understanding our present. Deeply informed by archival research and current scholarship, but written as a reflective and intimate memoir, What the Oceans Remember addresses current issues in migration, identity, belonging, and history through an interrogation of race, ethnicity, gender, archives and memory. More importantly, it addresses the relevance of our past to understanding our present. It shows the multiplicity of identities and origins that can shape the way we understand our histories and our own selves. Deeply informed by archival research and current scholarship, but written as a reflective and intimate memoir, What the Oceans Remember addresses current issues in migration, identity, belonging, and history through an interrogation of race, ethnicity, gender, archives and memory.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Drawing on one of Newfoundland and Labrador's richest archival treasures, the letters written to J.R. Smallwood (in the Archives and Special Collections Division, QEII Library, Memorial University), Dear Mr. Smallwood considers the lives and stories of everyday Newfoundlanders and Labradorians as they navigated what was arguably the biggest political transition of their lifetimes: the entry of the former dominion of Newfoundland into confederation with Canada in 1949. With over 30 contributors, this collaborative project brings together archival materials, scholarly essays, autobiographical reflections, and poetic and visual responses to compliment existing narratives about Confederation. Dear Mr. Smallwood is based on extensive archival research; however, our interest does not lie with Confederation as an historical event. Rather, as life writing scholars, we are interested in the relationship between Confederation and life narrative. Drawing specifically on the thousands of letters written to Smallwood between 1948 and 1951, we consider how Newfoundlanders and Labradorians represented themselves and made meaning of their lives; that is, we focus on the stories they told about themselves and this rapidly changing place they called home. As unique expressions of people's hopes, dreams, discontents, and desires, the letters open a window onto Newfoundlanders and Labradorians as political agents. In their letters, these correspondents both articulated their current living situations and imagined their futures, looking for ways to improve their own lives, and those of their communities. Taken together, the letters are a vital but until now, virtually untapped source towards imagining a collective political autobiography of Newfoundland and Labrador. Drawing on thousands of letters written as Newfoundland joined Canada, this work unveils the heartfelt voices of everyday citizens amid sweeping political change. By blending archival documents, reflective essays, and creative responses, it exposes how people reimagined their lives and shaped a collective future. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: New. In the second half of the eighteenth century, celebrated Swiss physician Samuel Auguste Tissot (1728-1797) received over 1,200 medical consultation letters from across Europe and beyond. Written by individuals seeking respite from a range of ailments, these letters offer valuable insight into the nature of physical suffering. Plaintive, desperate, querulous, fearful, frustrated, and sometimes arrogant and self-interested in tone, the letters to Tissot not only express the struggle of individuals to understand the body and its workings, but also reveal the close connections between embodiment and politics. Through the process of writing letters to describe their ailments, the correspondents created textual versions of themselves, articulating identities shaped by their physical experiences. Using these identities and experiences as examples, Sonja Boon argues that the complaints voiced in the letters were intimately linked to broader social and political discourses of citizenship in the late eighteenth century, a period beset with concerns about depopulation, moral depravity, and corporeal excess, and organized around intricate rules of propriety. Contributing to the fields of literary criticism, history, gender and sexuality studies, and history of medicine, Telling the Flesh establishes a compelling argument about the connections between health, politics, and identity.
