Originally published in 1895, the novel reiterates two central themes of Tardivel's writing: the Catholicism of French Canada and its unique social and political implications, and the Quebec-centred need of French Canada for its own separate state. Tardivel wrote this book to help Quebec become 'a new France, whose mission it will be to continue on this American soil the work of Christian civilization that the old France pursued for so many hundreds of years.' Though set in mid-twentieth century, \u003ci\u003ePour la Patrie\u003c\/i\u003e represents Tardivel's vision of his own times. He was a man of his time and of his society, and both as editor of the widely-read newspaper \u003ci\u003eLa Vérité\u003c\/i\u003e and in his many other political writings, his influence on that society was great. If he was more extreme than most of his contemporaries in Quebec, it was more in his politics than his ideology: his underlying notions of religion, society, and the relations of men to each other and to God were in harmony with those of his province, and indeed, as the international circulation of his writing suggests, with the extreme Catholicism - the militantly defensive Catholicism - of his age. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 254\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.58 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 15, 1975\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52645828755763,"sku":"9780802062673","price":61.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/pyseT2kUN39780802062673.webp?v=1762422798","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/for-my-country-pour-la-patrie-an-1895-religious-and-separatist-vision-of-quebec-set-in-the-mid-twentieth-century-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
