At Memorial University in St. John's, a new generation of faculty saw the province's transformation as a critical moment. Some hoped to solve the challenges of modernization through their rural research. Others hoped to document the island's "traditional" culture before it disappeared. Between them they created the field of "Newfoundland studies."In Observing the Outports, Jeff A.
