Title
French Ethnic Literature and Culture in an American City : Holyoke, Massachusetts
Description
From the author: "This study examines the French literary and cultural life of French Canadians in New England with emphasis on Holyoke, Massachusetts, between 1869 and 1940. At the turn of the century French Canadians became known as Franco-Americans; they tried to maintain their native language and traditions as American citizens in a New England urban industrial setting....Holyoke's history and its unique character are considered in terms of their effects on the French Canadian settlers....We will attempt to examine Holyoke's French cultural and literary life in the framework of French Canadian life in New England through a general consideration of the French Canadian immigration, the role of the parish, the schools, the family, and societies."
