| Zusammenfassung: | "Colonial Canada changed enormously between the 1760s and the 1860s, the Conquest and Confederation, but the idea of civilization seen to guide those transformations changed still more. A cosmopolitan and optimistic theory of history was written into the founding Canadian constitution as a check on state violence, only to be reversed and undone over the next century. Civilization was hegemony, a contradictory theory of unrestrained power and restraints on that power. Occupying a middle ground between British and American hegemonies, all the different peoples living in Canada felt those contradictions very sharply. Both Britain and America came to despair of bending Canada violently to their will, and new forms of hegemony, a greater reckoning with soft power, emerged in the wake of those failures. E.A. Heaman shows that the view from colonial Canada matters for intellectual and political history. Canada posed serious challenges to the Scottish Enlightenment, the Pax Britannia, American manifest destiny, and the emerging model of the nation state. David Hume's theory of history shaped the Canadian imaginary, in constitutional documents, much-thumbed histories, and a certain liberal-conservative political and financial orientation. But as settlers flooded across the continent, cosmopolitanism became chauvinism, and the idea of civilization was put to accomplishing plunder and predation on a transcontinental scale. Case studies show crucial moments of conceptual reversal, some broadly representative and some unique to Canada. Dissecting the Seven Years' War, domestic relations, the fiscal military state, liberal reform, social statistics, democracy, constitutionalism, and scholarly history, Heaman shows how key British and Canadian public figures grappled with the growing gap between theory and practice. By historicizing the concept of civilization, this book connects Enlightenment ideals and anti-colonialism, shown in contest with colonialism in Canada before Confederation."-- |

A cosmopolitan and optimistic theory of history was written into the founding Canadian constitution as a check on state violence, only to be reversed and undone over the next century. Civilization was hegemony, a contradictory theory of unrestrained power and restraints on that power. Occupying a middle ground between British and American hegemonies, all the different peoples living in Canada felt those contradictions very sharply. Both Britain and America came to despair of bending Canada violently to their will, and new forms of hegemony, a greater reckoning with soft power, emerged in the wake of those failures. E.A. Heaman shows that the view from colonial Canada matters for intellectual and political history. Canada posed serious challenges to the Scottish Enlightenment, the Pax Britannia, American manifest destiny, and the emerging model of the nation state. David Hume's theory of history shaped the Canadian imaginary, in constitutional documents, much-thumbed histories, and a certain liberal-conservative political and financial orientation. But as settlers flooded across the continent, cosmopolitanism became chauvinism, and the idea of civilization was put to accomplishing plunder and predation on a transcontinental scale. Case studies show crucial moments of conceptual reversal, some broadly representative and some unique to Canada. Dissecting the Seven Years' War, domestic relations, the fiscal military state, liberal reform, social statistics, democracy, constitutionalism, and scholarly history, Heaman shows how key British and Canadian public figures grappled with the growing gap between theory and practice. By historicizing the concept of civilization, this book connects Enlightenment ideals and anti-colonialism, shown in contest with colonialism in Canada before Confederation."--</subfield><subfield code="c">Provided by publisher.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Canada</subfield><subfield code="x">Civilization</subfield><subfield code="y">19th century.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Great Britain</subfield><subfield code="x">Colonies</subfield><subfield code="z">America.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85056660</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Civilization, Modern</subfield><subfield code="y">19th century.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85026472</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Enlightenment.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85044032</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Canada</subfield><subfield code="x">Civilisation</subfield><subfield code="y">19e siècle.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Grande-Bretagne</subfield><subfield code="x">Colonies</subfield><subfield code="z">Amérique.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Civilisation</subfield><subfield code="y">19e siècle.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Siècle des Lumières.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Enlightenment (18th-century western movement)</subfield><subfield code="2">aat</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">HISTORY / Modern / 19th Century.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">British colonies</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Civilization</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Civilization, Modern</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Enlightenment</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">America</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Canada</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJkMHVW4rfVXPrhVP4VwG3</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="648" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">1800-1899</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Bagot Report.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Daniel Wilson.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">David Hume.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">History.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">John Macdonald.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Joseph-Charles Tache.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Lord Durham.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">colonial Canada.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">conservatism.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">gender.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">intellectual.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">liberalism.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">race.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">settler colonialism.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">social.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Heaman, E.

Macdonald and Confederation -- History's Civilization: Daniel Wilson and the End of History. "Colonial Canada changed enormously between the 1760s and the 1860s, the Conquest and Confederation, but the idea of civilization seen to guide those transformations changed still more. A cosmopolitan and optimistic theory of history was written into the founding Canadian constitution as a check on state violence, only to be reversed and undone over the next century. Civilization was hegemony, a contradictory theory of unrestrained power and restraints on that power. Occupying a middle ground between British and American hegemonies, all the different peoples living in Canada felt those contradictions very sharply. Both Britain and America came to despair of bending Canada violently to their will, and new forms of hegemony, a greater reckoning with soft power, emerged in the wake of those failures. E.A. Heaman shows that the view from colonial Canada matters for intellectual and political history. Canada posed serious challenges to the Scottish Enlightenment, the Pax Britannia, American manifest destiny, and the emerging model of the nation state. David Hume's theory of history shaped the Canadian imaginary, in constitutional documents, much-thumbed histories, and a certain liberal-conservative political and financial orientation. But as settlers flooded across the continent, cosmopolitanism became chauvinism, and the idea of civilization was put to accomplishing plunder and predation on a transcontinental scale. Case studies show crucial moments of conceptual reversal, some broadly representative and some unique to Canada. Dissecting the Seven Years' War, domestic relations, the fiscal military state, liberal reform, social statistics, democracy, constitutionalism, and scholarly history, Heaman shows how key British and Canadian public figures grappled with the growing gap between theory and practice. By historicizing the concept of civilization, this book connects Enlightenment ideals and anti-colonialism, shown in contest with colonialism in Canada before Confederation."-- Provided by publisher.
