KAVANAGH-LAVERENDRYE GRADUATE FELLOWSHIP

Research Fields historical studies (see eligibility for other fields)
Categories Social Sciences and Humanities

Eligibility The Martin Kavanagh-Pierre Gaultier LaVerendrye Fellowship at St. Paul's College was established in 1987 by Mr. Martin Kavanagh to continue study and research into the life, times, and influence of LaVerendrye, the great explorer of the Canadian West. Mr. Kavanagh believed that LaVerendrye deserves a greater place in the history of Western Canada than is sometimes acknowledged. He spent much of his time and efforts researching and writing about LaVerendrye, his colleagues, and his times.

In the coming year the Kavanagh-LaVerendrye Fellowship will provide $3,000 for work on the life and times of LaVerendrye. It is not restricted to historical studies, but may include historical geography, demographics, economics, political studies, anthropology, linguistics, the Church in Western Canada, music, Native Peoples and languages, cultural studies, and any other disciplines that might advance the objectives of the fellowship.

Value $3,000
Currency Canadian
