Student Activism, Mental Health, and English-Canadian Universities in the 1960s
Student mental health services were created at many American universities during the interwar years in association with the mental hygiene movement of that era. In Canada, psychologists and psychiatrists became focused on the well-being of schoolchildren during this period, but services for university students were minimal or non-existent at most institutions until well after the Second World War. Influenced by American trends and in tune with ri…
Breast Cancer and the Language of Risk, 1750-1950
The language of risk, in relation to disease, is usually viewed as having developed in the post-war era, but in fact it has a much longer history. Focusing on the period from the mid-eighteenth century to the mid-twentieth century, this article examines evolving beliefs about what makes women vulnerable to breast cancer and traces the history of certain 'risk factors', such as the presence of benign breast disease, the experience of injury to the…

During the ninete…

Niagara Falls, the Thou…
Romanticism, Modernity, and the Evolution of Tourism on the Niagara Frontier, 1790–1850
LINKING THE WORD 'ROMANTIC' with Niagara may bring to mind images of heart-shaped jacuzzis and other staples of the honeymoon motel suite. Romanticism in its much broader definition, however, is the subject of this article. By examining the birth of mass-sightseeing at Niagara during the early nineteenth century, I hope to show that the romantic movement, which still influences us greatly in the 'postromantic' age, supplied the cultural foundatio…
