Editors’ Foreword

This issue of the Canadian Catholic Historical Association’s journal features papers presented at the 2002 annual meeting of its English Section at the University of Toronto in May 2002, but includes as well papers from previous meetings and other papers submitted apart from these meetings. Papers presented at the 2002 meeting at the University of Toronto, but not printed here for various reasons (either not presented with a view to publication, not offered to the editors, put over until a subsequent issue, or published elsewhere), are listed separately on page 6.

The editing of an academic journal requires, of course, the cooperation of quite a number of people who are willing to give of their energy and expertise in the cause of research and scholarship. We are pleased to acknowledge the assistance of all who assisted the editors this year. We are especially grateful to our authors for submitting their manuscripts, and for responding so graciously, effectively, and promptly to the suggestions for revision provided by our assessors and the editors. Our anonymous assessors have earned the gratitude of both the editors and our authors for their critical and helpful comments on all the papers that we sent to them. We would also like to acknowledge the support and advice of our Editorial Board. Finally, both the journal and the Association are most grateful to the Secretary General of the Canadian Catholic Historical Association, Fr. Edward Jackman, O.P., for generous financial support and encouragement.
