Abstract

In 1959, W. J. Gage published The Development of Education in Canada by C. E. Phillips. Prior to this event, the average Canadian student of educational history seemed destined for W. S. Gilbert's little list in that he so often studied "all centuries but this, and every country but his own." After the appearance of Phillips' book, however, student historical attention sometimes took a more introspective turn, thanks to scholars like F. Henry Johnson and Louis-Philippe Audet whose subsequent provincial and national interpretations built productively on the Phillips theme of Canadian unity in diversity.
