Title |
Families, Lovers, and Their Letters : Italian Postwar Migration to Canada
|
Abstract |
The author examines the impact of migration experienced by immigrants to Canada and loved ones in Italy through the lens of personal correspondence. She focuses on the three decades immediately following the Second World War when the largest migration of Italians to Canada took place. Through a detailed content analysis of over 400 private letters belonging to six families, the author examines how kin and lovers in Canada and Italy negotiated their separation as a result of migration. Most of the migrants examined immigrated to Montreal.
