Sharing the Past : The Reinvention of History in Canadian Poetry since 1960
Sharing the Past is an unprecedentedly detailed account of the intertwining discourses of Canadian history and creative literature.When social history emerged as its own field of study in the 1960s, it promised new stories that would bring readers away from the elite writing of academics and closer to the everyday experiences of people.Yet, the academy’s continued emphasis on professional distance and objectivity made it difficult for historians to connect with the experiences of those about whom they wrote, and those same emphases made it all but impossible for non-academic experts to be institutionally recognized as historians. Drawing on interviews and new archival materials to construct a history of Canadian poetry written since 1960, Sharing the Past argues that the project of social history has achieved its fullest expression in lyric poetry, a genre in which personal experiences anchor history.Developing this genre since 1960, Canadian poets have provided an inclusive model for a truly social history that indiscriminately shares the right to speak authoritatively of the past.

For the past: Simple past or present perfect?
The choice between simple past and present perfect depends on the specific context and the speaker's intention. Generally, the simple past is used to talk about a specific completed action or event that occurred at a definite time in the past. On the other hand, the present perfect is used to indicate a connection between the past and the present, emphasizing the relevance or impact of the past action on the present moment. So, if the focus is on a completed action with a specific time reference, simple past is more appropriate. If the focus is on the relevance of the past action to the present moment, present perfect is more suitable.

Croydon Past
Croydon was for centuries a small but important market town, set in attractive open countryside and separated from London by poor roads, large commons, the Great North Wood and, probably, by inclination.As the principal town in East Surrey it had large markets and fairs, grants for which were obtained by the archbishops of Canterbury who, as lords of the manor, had their near London residence in the town.Frequent visitors from the 13th century, they entertained many important guests at what, by the 17th century, had become Croydon Palace.Enclosure of the common lands in 1801 paved the way for building development and the town began to expand.By 1809 it was served by two horse-drawn freight railways and a canal, but it was the arrival of steam railways from 1839 that made Croydon an ideal residential area for London commuters.The provision of a good water supply and proper drainage in 1851 made the town one of the healthiest in the country.Housing spread over the farmland at an increasing rate, the population reaching 191,375 by 1921.By this time Croydon’s suburbs were merging with London’s.From the 1960s the town centre was transformed by a major redevelopment scheme which has made Croydon the sixth largest commercial centre in the country.This well-researched and very readable book tells the entire story of the town’s development over the centuries with the aid of original and specially prepared maps and excellent illustrations, many never previously published.It will be warmly welcomed by residents and visitors alike and is a significant contribution to the published history of East Surrey.

Salisbury Past
Salisbury is always symbolised by its cathedral spire and the physical dominance of that magnificent building over the surrounding city is as impressive today as it was in medieval times.The two elements of Salisbury - the cathedral and the city - owe their existence to each other and the relationship between the authorities on opposite sides of the Close wall dominated the early centuries when the new town was developing its independent identity. The shape of the city was laid down in the 13th century and the essence of the planned medieval town with its chequer system can still be easily traced.Growth since then has spread outwards from this original core but the importance of the Market Place still draws both residents and visitors back to the centre. 'Continuity and change' may be a familiar phrase but it summarises Salisbury both architecturally and as a community.A recurring theme is the continued use of old buildings for changed functions.By such gentle adaptations wholesale destruction and rebuilding have been avoided.This important new book traces the development of Salisbury as a market, as an industrial town, as a transport hub, and as a social and service centre. Its authors have very successfully met the challenge of producing a comprehensive, concise and readable volume, generously and intelligently illustrated.It will provide a valuable source of reference and also excite the imagination through its fascinating insights into the lives of past citizens.A splendid synthesis of well-researched facts and entertaining anecdotes, this is local history writing at its best.
