Graeme Patterson questions conventional understanding of the thought of Innis and McLuhan and the relationship between their work.Historians have generally considered communications an area distinct from (and irrelevant to) their own. Harold Innis is usually regarded as having moved from the field of Canadian history in his early work to non-Canadian history and communications. The distinction, Patterson suggests, is false; both the early and the late work of Innis are in the field of communications and, indeed, so is the study of history itself.Using nineteenth-century Upper Canadian political history as a focus, Patterson applies communications theory to such familiar subjects as the Family Compact, responsible government, and the rebellion of 1837, and shows how Canadian opinion was generated and shaped by media of communication. Both Innis and McLuhan held that the technologies of writing and printing conditioned and structured human consciousness, resulting in 'literal mindedness.' Using that insight, Patterson explores the thinking of nineteenth- and twentieth-century writers of Canadian history, including Donald Creighton, J.M.S. Careless, and Chester Martin.In his challenge to long-standing views, Patterson offers a new way of understanding the work of two key thinkers, and new ways to think about communications theory, Canadian history, historiography, and history as a discipline. 606 $aHistoriography 606 $aInformation theory in historiography 606 $aHISTORY / Historiography$2bisacsh 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aHistoriography. 615 0$aInformation theory in historiography. 615 7$aHISTORY / Historiography. 676 $a302.23 700 $aPatterson$b Graeme H.$f1934-$0949712 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462452703321 996 $aHistory and communications$92146614 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01493nam 2200385 a 450 001 9910701382603321 005 20120109095210.0 035 $a(CKB)5470000002417238 035 $a(OCoLC)771916700 035 $a(EXLCZ)995470000002417238 100 $a20120109d2011 ua 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurbn||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aSeismological research$b[electronic resource] $eSeismic Research Station : agreement between the United States of America and the Republic of Korea; signed at Seoul, December 22, 2006, with appendices 210 1$a[Washington, D.C.] :$cU.S. Dept. of State,$d[2011?] 215 $a1 online resource (26 unnumbered pages) 225 1 $aTreaties and other international acts series ;$v06-1227 300 $aTitle from title screen (viewed on Jan. 9, 2012). 517 $aSeismological research 606 $aSeismology$xResearch$xLaw and legislation$zUnited States 606 $aSeismology$xResearch$xLaw and legislation$zKorea (South) 606 $aSeismological stations$zKorea (South)$zWo?nju-si 615 0$aSeismology$xResearch$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aSeismology$xResearch$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aSeismological stations 712 02$aUnited States.$bDepartment of State. 801 0$bGPO 801 1$bGPO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910701382603321 996 $aSeismological research$93531759 997 $aUNINA
