To mark his life and career, the Canadian Historical Association hosted a round table at its 2017 annual meeting which provided the basis for the short essays in this "Life in History" section dedicated to Cook. Donald Wright uses Barker Fairley's portrait of a young Ramsay Cook as a starting point to consider his career and its animating themes. As an undergraduate at the University of Toronto in the late 1960s, Greg Kealey studied with Cook; a few years later, he and Cook discovered a shared interest in the radical Toronto journalist Phillips Thompson, also known as Jimuel Briggs. One of "Ramsay's girls," Franca Iacovetta remembers a generous doctoral thesis supervisor who took an active interest in not only her scholarship but the scholarship of a number of feminist historians. Strictly speaking, Adele Perry was not Cook's doctoral student, but as a graduate student at York University, she appreciated his capacious understanding of Canadian history and his intellectual commitment to historical analysis unhooked from the yoke of nationalism. Robert Fraser was neither Cook's student nor his university colleague, but he worked closely with him at the Dictionary of Canadian Biography (dcb) and came to admire his leadership and his commitment to scholarship during a difficult moment in the dcb's history. Ramsay Cook (1931–2016) était un historien et un ami estimé dont les travaux et les directions de thèses ont aidé une nouvelle génération d'historiens à réécrire l'histoire du Canada. Pour souligner sa vie et sa carrière, la Société historique du Canada a organisé une table-ronde durant son assemblée annuelle en 2017, de laquelle ont émergé ces courts essais publiés dans cet encart « Life in History », consacré à Cook. Donald Wright utilise le portrait d'un jeune Ramsay Cook de Barker Fairley comme point de départ pour réfléchir sur sa carrière et ses thèmes dynamiques. Comme étudiant à l'Université de Toronto à la fin des années 1960, Greg Kealey a étudié avec Cook. Quelques années plus tard, ils ont découvert un intérêt en commun dans le journaliste radical de Toronto, Phillips Thompson, aussi connu sous le nom de Jimuel Briggs. Une des « Ramsay's Girls », Franca Iacovetta se souvient un généreux directeur de thèse qui s'intéressait vivement non seulement à ses propres recherches, mais aussi aux recherches de plusieurs historiennes féministes. À proprement parler, Adele Perry n'était pas une étudiante sous la supervision de Cook, mais en tant qu'étudiante de troisième cycle à l'Université York, elle appréciait sa vaste compréhension de l'histoire canadienne ainsi que son engagement intellectuel pour l'analyse historique libre du joug du nationalisme. Robert Fraser n'était ni un étudiant de Cook ni son collègue universitaire, mais il a travaillé étroitement avec lui au Dictionnaire biographique du Canada (dbc), ce qui l'a mené à admirer ses qualités des meneurs et son engagement pour la recherche, à un moment difficile dans l'histoire du dbc. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Canadian Historical Review is the property of University of Toronto Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
