In The Lion's Cub, her 2018 Symons Medal address, eminent Canadian historian Margaret MacMillan examines the impact of the First War World on Canadian Confederation. With her characteristic flair and gift for telling detail, Margaret MacMillan shows the paradox of Canada's experience in the First World War. On the one hand, the Great War, as it was originally known, brought Canada closer to nationhood and gave many Canadians a greater sense of identity. On the other hand, the Great War also marked a time when Confederation was shaken and very nearly came apart. Its divisive impact continued to be felt throughout the twentieth century. And can still be felt today, in Canada's national political life, and in the relationship between Quebec and the rest of the country.YetCanada survived, and continues to survive. And Margaret MacMillan concludes thatthisis the great strength of Confederation.The Lion's Cubsuggests Canada's endurance should be recognized for the achievement it is. In a world where political boundaries are often as artificial as Canada's, the ability of our "e;improbable country"e; to survive and prosper may be an example of hope for a wider world.The Symons Medal is one of Canada's most prestigious honours. It is presented annually by the Confederation Centre of the Arts to honour persons who have made an exceptional contribution to Canadian life.Bilingual Edition-Historienne et crivaine canadienne de rputation internationale, Margaret MacMmillan aborde la Premire Guerre mondiale et ses rpercussions paradoxales sur le Canada dans son discours prononc en 2018 lors de la remise de la mdaille Symons et intitulLe lionceau. Avec son style caractristique et son talent inn de narratrice, Margaret MacMillan a rvl le paradoxe saisissant de l'exprience canadienne durant la Premire Guerre mondiale. En effet, si la Grande Guerre, comme on l'appelait l'poque, a sensibilis le Canada l'ide de nation et a confr bon nombre de Canadiens un sentiment accru d'identit, elle a aussi symbolis une poque o la Confdration canadienne fut fortement branle et faillit mme se dsagrger. De plus, les risques de fracture rsultant de la Grande Guerre perdurrent durant tout le XXesicle. Et aujourd'hui encore, ses effets continuent de se faire sentir dans la vie politique nationale canadienne, particulirement dans les relations entre le Qubec et le reste du pays.Pourtant, le Canada a survcu et continue de survivre. Selon Margaret MacMillan, c'est d'ailleurs la plus grande force de la Confdration canadienne. Dans son ouvrage intitulLe lionceau, elle suggre que l'endurance et la rsilience du Canada devraient tre imprativement reconnues leur juste valeur. Dans un monde o les frontires politiques sont souvent aussi artificielles que celles du Canada, la capacit survivre et prosprer de notre pays improbable est un brillant exemple d'espoir pour un monde plus vaste et plus divers.La mdaille Symons est une des rcompenses honorifiques les plus prestigieuses du Canada. Chaque anne, elle est remise par le Centre des arts de la Confdration une personne distingue en reconnaissance de sa contribution exceptionnelle la vie canadienne.dition bilingue

Bach. The essay on Tolkien examines the tendency in literaryhistory to return from irony to myth, as well as the rolethat Tolkien played in Frye's fiction-writing fantasies.In subsequent chapters, Denham explores Frye'spreference for romance and his critique of realism,which run parallel to the views of Oscar Wilde, and theirstrong shared convictions about the centripetal thrustof art, and about criticism being as creative as literature. Frye's appreciation for Whitehead's conceptof interpenetration in Science in the Modern Worldbecame a key feature of Frye's speculations about thehighest reaches of literature and religion. Frye is clearlyindebted to Martin Buber, particularly his influentialmeditation I and Thou. Aristotle, an important influenceupon Frye, was partially filtered through R.S. Craneand his The Languages of Criticism and the Structureof Poetry. Finally, the relationship between Fryeand his Oxford tutor Edmund Blunden are explored,while the last is an essay on Frye and M.H.

Bach sur Frye. Le chapitre sur Tolkien porte sur la tendance en histoire littraire de passer de l'ironie au mythe, mais aussi sur l'ascendant de Tolkien sur la fiction fantaisiste de Frye.Dans les chapitres suivants, Denham explore la prfrence de Frye pour le romantique et sa critique du ralisme, qui trouvent cho chez Oscar Wilde, de mme que leur conviction, partage, de l'importance de l'art, et de la critique comme tant aussi crative que la littrature. L'admiration de Frye pour le concept d'interpntration prsent dans leScience in the Modern Worldde Whitehead est devenue un lment cl des rflexions de Frye sur la porte de la littrature et de la religion.Denham explore aussi le lien entre Frye et Martin Buber, dont la mditationI and Thoul'a beaucoup inspir, et celui entre Frye et R.S.
