"Jews and French Quebecers" recounts a saga of intense interest
for the whole of Canada, let alone societies elsewhere. This work,
now translated into English, represents the viewpoints of two
friends from differing cultural and religious traditions. One is a
French Quebecer and a Christian; the other is Jewish and also calls
Quebec his home. Both men are bilingual.
Jacques Langlais and David Rome examine the merging -- through
alterations of close co-operation and socio-political clashes -- of
two Quebec ethno-cultural communities: one French, already rooted
in the land of Quebec and its religio-cultural tradition; the
other, Jewish, migrating from Europe through the last two
centuries, equally rooted in its Jewish-Yiddish tradition.
In Quebec both communities have learned to build and live
together as well as to share their respective cultural heritages.
This remarkable experience, two hundred years of intercultural
co-vivance, in a world fraught with ethnic tensions serves as a
model for both Canada and other countries.
