Title |
'Contre tous les youpins du monde' : la ville de Québec au temps de l’antisémitisme (1890–1914)
|
Abstract |
In 1912, Charles Maurras mentioned in the right-wing Parisian publication l’Action française “the importance of anti-Semitism in Quebec City.” The author notes that as a city founded on a strong ethno-linguistic duality, Quebec City’s character changed considerably at the turn of the twentieth century. He outlines how industrialization, immigration, the predominant conception of the nation-state and the magisterium of the Catholic Church upset a city that seemed to be experiencing a difficult transition. Ridden with anxiety, a conservative Francophone elite began attacking the city's vulnerable Jewish minority on a daily basis. The author explains that a noisy anti-Semitism took shape, regularly feeding a chimerical representation of the Jew which, by the effect of imbalance between reality and the imaginary, between truth and lies, generated nocuous tensions.
