CourseObjectives
Men (but rarely women) on pedestals, darkmemorial halls, museum exhibitions of ‘national’ or ‘natural’history, and jagged ‘trauma’monumentsdot cities around theworld. As the capitalofCanada,Ottawa iscoveredwith a particularly dense layer of commemorativeobjects and sites. In recent decades,Ottawa’smonumentsandmuseumexhibitionshavecomeunder the increasedscrutinyof Indigenousorganizations,the daily press, activist groups and individuals who have identified certainmemorial objects and sites ascolonial,racist,orwhitesupremacist.This year, Themes in the Study of Canada uses monuments, memorials, and museums as a foil for thediscussionandcritiqueofnation-buildingpracticesinCanada.Theaimofthiscourseistofigureouthowandwhymemorialsandmuseumsaresuchcontentioussites,andhowwecanusethediscussionssurroundingthemtobetterunderstandeachcourseparticipant’splaceinlocal,regional,national,andtransnationalsocialandpoliticalconstellations.Assuch,thecoursewillcontextualizememorialswithinshiftingCanadianurbanlandscapes, in relation to Indigenous resistanceand resurgence (specifically territorial acknowledgements),andwithrespecttotransnationalhistoriesoftraumacommemoration.Following the course description, lectures and discussion sessionswill use specificmonuments/memorialsandmuseumexhibitions to consider “Indigenous peoples, literature, language and ethnicity, race, gender,culture and cultural producers, the environment, and international relations.” Each of these (oftenproblematic)categoriesanddesignationsplaysakey role inhowmonumentsareconceived, funded,built,situated in urban landscapes, used/interpreted by visitors, and deployed by interest groups andgovernments.AsyoubegintoentertheworldofMemoryandHeritageStudiesinCanada,thinkaboutthefollowingquestions:Doyouseeyourselfinanyofthetermslistedinthecoursedescriptionabove?Doyouidentifywithagender,ethnicity,orrace?Doyouspeakoneormorelanguages,whicharesomehowtiedtoyour oral histories, literatures, and environments? And finally, do you think that this list appropriatelydescribesthecategoriesthatdefineyourrelationshiptoanationstateortosomesortofphysical,political,or spiritual home? The hope for this term is that the study of places of memory will contribute to anunderstandingofkeypublicdiscussionsinCanadatoday.

Carleton’s suggested acknowledgement sounds like this:“We/IwouldliketoacknowledgetheAlgonquinnationwhosetraditionalanduncededterritorywearegathered upon today.” Acknowledgements serve a number of complex social, political, and legalpurposes;theyaresimultaneouslyrequired,supported,critiqued,andrefusedbyinstitutionsaswellasIndigenousandnon-Indigenous individualsalike. ScholarssuchasChelseaVowel (seearticleassignedfor class 3) have asked if acknowledgements are meaningful when recited in a formulaic way thatcommunicates apathy rather than respect. How can territorial acknowledgements remain sites ofdisruptionratherthancomplicity?PURPOSE:a) topositionyourself inrelationtothe landyou inhabitbeforeyouengage inacritiqueofmonumentsandmuseums;b)tocreateaworkingacknowledgementthatyoumayusewhenpresentinginpublic;andc)tocreatethebasisforachievingthefirstlearningoutcomeofthiscourse:tobeabletoexplain how concepts such as ‘memory,’ ‘heritage,’ ‘space’ and ‘place’ help you understand yourphysicalandsocial/politicalsurroundings.Assignment2-MuseumPanelShortReflectionTASK:PrepareanalternativemuseumpanelforanexhibitfoundinoneofthefournationalmuseumsinOttawa–theNationalGalleryofCanada,theMuseumofNature,theCanadianMuseumofHistory,andtheWarMuseum.SUBMISSION:Aproposalforarevisedpanel/smallexhibitincludingthefollowingmaterials:oneortwooriginalexhibitphotos, transcribedoriginalexhibit texts, your revised texts,a400-600wordcriticalreflection.
