\n Laura Madokoro, Lori Jones, and Dominique Marshall win SSHRC Grants\n <\/h1>\n \n \n <\/header>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n

The History Department is pleased to announce that three members of our department have been awarded SSHRC grants. Laura Madokoro and Lori Jones have each won a SSHRC Insight Development Grant (February 2025 competition) and Dominique Marshall has won a SSHRC Insight Grant (October 2024 competition).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lori Jones (History)<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>will use the predominant plague tract in premodern Europe \u2013 written by John of Burgundy c. 1365) \u2013 to test a research methodology that blends medical book history, manuscript studies, historical linguistics, and digital humanities. By identifying the textual and social relationships between extant copies of the tract and trace it\u2019s geographic and \u201cepistemic itinerary\u201d between the 14th<\/sup> and 17th<\/sup> centuries, Jones will explore the factors that shaped where medical knowledge travelled and how it was altered as it moved. The project will not only contribute new knowledge about the text, but also about medicine, book trading routes, and knowledge exchange networks across premodern Europe.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Laura Madokoro (History)<\/strong><\/a> will make innovative contributions to pressing discussions about the relationship between empire, displacement, and settler colonialism. When and how do people who have been displaced, as citizens or forced migrants, make claims to settler belonging? Using autoethnography, oral history, and multi-sited archival research, Madokoro will interrogate the processes that led to the internment of Japanese Canadians and German Jews in Canada during the Second World War, placing family histories alongside larger histories of empire, displacement and settlement. In doing so, the project will articulate how negotiating histories of internment and displacement simultaneously reinforce and complicate the ways in which people have laid claim to place and belonging.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dominique Marshall (History)<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0will produce the first monograph of the history of Oxfam in Canada. One of the largest and oldest aid organizations in Canada, Oxfam\u2019s history presents a unique way to understand the apparent contradictions and disjuncture in the thoughts and actions of the Canadian public concerning the Global South as Oxfam staff worked daily to find ways to enact the organization\u2019s commitment to justice and self-government, assistance, and poverty reduction. In addition to the monograph, the project includes building a depository of Oxfam documents at Carleton University and build connections between this collection and other existing collections to facilitate future research on the organization and transnational aid solidarity.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
