At the turn of the twentieth-century, when the power of the church in Quebec was starting to decline, the Roman de la Terre became a literary phenomenon unique to Quebec. Before the Quiet Revolution, which began sometime in the 1930s and ended in the 1960s, provincial parish values and the dominant influence of the Quebec church on all areas of life was coming to an end. Alarmed at the impending cultural and ideological changes, Quebec's elite and religious leaders attempted to use the Roman de la Terre as a propaganda tool to slow these changes, if not reverse the tide, by reviving the image of the conquest of the land and the myth of the "habitant."Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a At the turn of the twentieth-century, when the power of the church in Quebec was starting to decline, the Roman de la Terre became a literary phenomenon unique to Quebec. Before the Quiet Revolution, which began sometime in the 1930s and ended in the 1960s, provincial parish values and the dominant influence of the Quebec church on all areas of life was coming to an end. Alarmed at the impending cultural and ideological changes, Quebec's elite and religious leaders attempted to use the Roman de la Terre as a propaganda tool to slow these changes, if not reverse the tide, by reviving the image of the conquest of the land and the myth of the "habitant."
520 $a Rather than treat only the general social break from the Church during the post-war period, as critics have generally done, this work examines how the persuasive power of the Quebec church worked to maintain its influence up to the second half of the nineteenth century and how doctrinal views were filtered by both compliant and oppositional authors of the Roman de la Terre. With this literary genre, some of Quebec's elite and religious leaders attempted to resurrect the conquest of the land and the myth of the simple but fulfilling life of the "habitant" who lived harmoniously as god's steward farming the sacred land according the divine order given in Genesis 3 and theorized in Saint Augustine's City of God. This dissertation principally studies three key novels, La Terre Paternelle by Patrice Lacombe, Maria Chapdelaine by Louis Hemon and Trente Arpents by Ringuet, that expound this ill-fated ideology and ultimately reflect its demise.
520 $a The failure of the Roman de la Terre as a genre implies a halt in the progression of the elite's plan for resettling the northern territories and foreshadows the imminent secularization of Quebec's society, culminating in the Quiet Revolution. Contrary to the Quebec church's initial assessment, the Quebecers were inexorably destined to share the wealth of industrial success rather than perpetuate the divine order on the ancestral land.
520 $a A few decades after the Quiet Revolution, the "Roman de la Terre" was resurrected by the female author Arlette Cousture who wrote a series of novels later adapted for television. The distinct difference between these new novels and the original "Roman de la Terre" is that the novel of the land originally intended for theocratic propaganda metamorphosed itself into a secular genre, free at last of catholic ideology, thereby planting the seed for a new multi-faceted form of literature. The Roman de la Terre has outlived its original purpose and became a hardy perennial in the form of the pastoral genre.
