A NOTE ON THE AUTHOR

D.-C. BÉLANGER was born in Longueuil, Quebec, and educated at Marianopolis College, the Université de Montréal (B.A. 1998, M.A. 2000) and McGill University (Ph. D. in progress). He is the co-founder and co-editor of Mens: Revue d'histoire intellectuelle de l'Amérique française, a scholarly journal devoted to the intellectual history of Quebec and French America. His research fields include Canadian intellectual and Catholic history, Franco-American studies and the history of Canadian-American relations. He managed to combine these subjects in his M.A. thesis entitled Lionel Groulx et la Franco-Américanie (Université de Montréal, 2000, vii-184 pages). Currently a graduate fellow of the McGill Institute for the Study of Canada, his Ph. D. dissertation will focus on anti-Americanism in Canadian thought (1900-1939).
