Publisher's Synopsis
The Rise of Ecclesiastical Control in Quebec, written by Walter Alexander Riddell and published in 1916, is a historical account of the increasing influence of the Catholic Church in Quebec during the 19th century. The book explores the social, political, and economic factors that contributed to the rise of the Church's power in Quebec, and examines the impact that this had on the province's society and culture. Riddell's analysis covers a range of topics, including the role of the Church in education, the relationship between the Church and the state, and the impact of the Church's teachings on Quebecois identity. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Quebec, the Catholic Church, or the cultural and political dynamics of Canada's francophone communities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
