The Robarts Lecture series presents the work of distinguished Canadianists honoured for their career-long contributions to their various disciplines. These internationally recognized scholars from areas such as English, History, Political Science, Economics and the Fine Arts provide a synthesis of their original and thought provoking work on the most pertinent issues facing Canada and the world today. Since the inaugural Robarts Lecture by Fernand Oulette on April 22, 1986, fifteen of these lectures were given by holders of the prestigious Robarts Chair in Canadian Studies. Other lectures, the Distinguished Robarts Lecture Series, were presented by holders of Canada Research Chairs at 快播视频. In recent years, the relaunched Annual Robarts Lecture in Canadian Studies and the Visiting Professor in Canadian Studies Talks continue to examine issues in Canadian Studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
