Title |
The Dawning of a National Scientific Community in Canada, 1878-1896
|
Abstract |
Includes an examination of the establishment of the Royal Society of Canada, co-founded in 1882 by the Marquis of Lorne, Canada's Governor General, and John William Dawson (1820-1899), Professor of geology and Principal of McGill University. The author outlines how the founding of the Royal Society of Canada and a series of events affecting Canada's scientific community in the last decades of the nineteenth century reflected an emotional, intellectual and institutional commitment to a preferential link to Britain and British imperialism.
