| Title |
The Remembrance of Irish Famine Migrants in the Fever Sheds of Montreal
|
| Abstract |
The author notes that there was "substantial evidence of cultural conflict, ethno-religious tension and especially anxiety about proselytization occurring in the fever sheds of Montreal in 1847." Using the archives of Montreal’s Grey Nuns, he examines how the remembrance of Famine Irish migrants in the city’s fever sheds -- contested cultural spaces -- was sublimated from various forms of ethno-religious, social, and political tension into a global legacy not of conflict but of accommodation.
