In the past few years, there has been a proliferation of studies questioning in a new way the genealogy of historical knowledge in Quebec and its conditions of elaboration. This observation is to be made in view, notably, of the production of a fairly significant number of Master's degrees, PhDs and research projects which have contributed to making historiography a renewed and more autonomous and diversified field of investigation. These researches open up new working areas ranging from epistemology and intellectual history to history-memory relationships and the history of women, and to the analysis of school textbooks or the historiographical treatment of specific objects. That is to say that twenty years after the numerous debates on « revisionism » triggered by Ronald Rudin, Quebec would experience something like a new « historiographical moment » whose outlines, still difficult to define, would benefit from being clarified and made explicit. This article aims to offer a first inventory of this new moment by analysing a body of new historiographical studies published over the past thirteen years. It also raises, impliciitely, the question of the relative autonomy of a Quebec historiographical « field » under construction.

ABSTRACTParallax historiography refers to the way that early cinema comes into focus from the perspective of the end of the 20th century. This essay examines the parallels between the first decade of cinema and the diversification of visual media in the 1980s and 90s, similarities which have been theorized by the feminist film scholars Miriam Hansen, Anne Friedberg and Giuliana Bruno. These theorists have argued that the public spheres of these two periods solicit a very different form of spectatorship than that theorized by "apparatus theory." The diversity of media and of viewing positions, as well as the various architectures of reception, suggest a model of modernity and a gaze that offers a space for female spectatorship. This essay summarizes and collates these theories, foregrounding their value as a historiography of early cinema.

In this study, the author examines the nature of the relationships entertained by Acadian historians of the last few decades with Québec historiography, and tries to understand the timely evolution of those relationships. The relationships maintained with the historiography from Québec are examined from the perspective of two cohorts of Acadian historians, the first one mainly active in the 70s and the 80s, the second one in the 80s and 90s. The author attempts, in this article, to examine the space occupied by the historian production and the diverse historical sources from Quebec, in the works of Acadian historians of the last decades, while comparing with other possible sources of influence. Fourteen key texts issued from the Acadian historiography of the last decades were retained for analysis, to measure the weight and the presence of different scholarly, historical or archival references.
