22. UW Library - Newsletter: Jane Urquhart Diary Donated To The University Of Waterl Article from the library's newsletter. http://www.lib.uwaterloo.ca/newsletters/ln29no3.html

Library Newsletter, Vol. 29, No. 3, December 1998 Jane Urquhart Diary Donated to the University of Waterloo Library UW President James Downey and author Jane Urquhart (seated) are seen here comparing the original copy of her diary with the presentation facsimile prepared as a part of the preservation process. In commenting on the gift, Susan Saunders Bellingham, Head, Special Collections (standing) said that the diary will be of great interest to both students in literature and women's studies and will also be "a fine complement to the papers of Urquhart's husband, artist Tony Urquhart which are already housed in the Doris Lewis Rare Book Room." Pictured above are two pages from the recently-donated diary of Jane Urquhart. Presentative of the contents of the complete diary, these pages from 1975 feature photos, programs, labels, a telegram, and diary entries. [Click on photos above for larger views.] A series of "title-pages" by Hugh MacKenzie, a marriage license, exotic and colourful wine labels, tiny photographs of French graveyards, restaurant menus, and postcards are among the many fascinating items included in the pages of writer Jane Urquhart's diary. Covering the period from 1974 to 1979a time that Ms. Urquhart describes as preceding her writing careerthe 258-page diary has been donated to the Doris Lewis Rare Book Room at the University of Waterloo Library by Ms. Urquhart, winner of the 1997 Governor General's Award for her novel The Underpainter. Jane Urquhart describes this diarywhich also served as a sketchbook, journal, and trip diaryas her "best one" in that it shows her collaborative work with her husband, artist Tony Urquhart. The many sketches and drawings by Tony Urquhart that are included make this diary not unlike his series of "idea books" which form one of the most important portions of his personal papers and archives, also housed in the Doris Lewis Rare Book Room. The complementary nature of her diary with her husband's series of idea books prompted Ms. Urquhart to feel that this particular volume was well-suited to be added to the existing research collections in the Library. Ms. Urquhart further commented that it was important to her to have a portion of her original materials in the University of Waterloo Library because "Without the UW Library I couldn't have written the books I have . . . . I really feel at home there."

Women's Health Summary The aging and isolated Austin Fraser paints vividly realistic images inspired by his past; he then covers them with a filmy top coat that obfuscates the clarity. His housekeeper thinks he spoils his work with this "style." Son of a privileged mining magnate, he spent his summers on the northern shores of the Great Lakes, and his winters in upstate New York. His model, Sara, opened her life to him, and waited. He took without giving in return. His good friend George, destined to inherit his father's China Hall, is satisfied, it seems, with a meager life in porcelain painting and sellingtrite, cozy images that Austin scorns. They both remember Vivian, a beautiful sophisticate who floated through their lives one summer long ago. Austin has been away in the big city for many years, but he has a hankering to see George again. Vivian reappears and goads Austin to make the journey back in time.

30. Varsity Arts & Culture -- Jane Urquhart: A Portrait Of Success The author talks about her novel, 'The Underpainter', and about being a Canadian writer. http://www.varsity.utoronto.ca/archives/118/dec10/review/Jane.html

Web posted on December 10, 1997 Jane Urquhart: A Portrait of Success By Jess Merber, Varsity Staff “Oh hello, this is Jane Urquhart.” I was expecting her call, but it still caused my hands to shake. After all, this was the author of The Whirlpool in 1986, Changing Heaven in 1990, Away in 1993 and this year’s The Underpainter—not to mention the 1997 Governor-General’s award winner for fiction. And she’s on the telephone. And I’m nervous. Urquhart, however, is not. She sounds relaxed and interested in our conversation; I begin to feel like a guest made at home by a host. I should have suspected as much from Urquhart from her reading at Hart House in support of PEN Canada a few days prior to the call. Along with Margaret Gibson and Nino Ricci, Urquhart read from her recent work, charming the audience with her words and her manner. She warned the audience that the evening of the reading "just might be the time my eyes give out forever" and she was to be excused if she left the podium to retrieve her new eyeglasses. She prefaced her discussion with, "It's another strange one, no question about it." Urquhart was referring to her signature lyrical style and her tendency to write about centuries past, whether it be Niagara Falls in the 19th century, the ghost of Emily Bronte or the incredible story of Irish immigrants in 19th century Ontario. The Underpainter is somewhat of a change for Urquhart, in several respects.

Berlin Verlag, 430 Seiten, ISBN: 3827000823 Ersch. 2001 unter dem Titel "The Stone Carvers" McClelland & Stewart Ltd, Toronto Aus dem kanadischen Englisch Herbst 2002 von Barbara Schaden Die Autorin: Jane Urquhart wurde 1949 in Geraldton, Ontario, geboren, wuchs in Toronto auf und lebt heute wieder in einer Kleinstadt im Südwesten Ontarios. Sie gehört zu den erfolgreichsten kanadischen Schriftstellerinnen der Gegenwart. Weitere Titel : Fort / Übermalungen / Die Bildhauer Als Pfarrer Archangelus Gstirr in der Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts in die kanadischen Wälder kam, um hier den deutschen Auswanderern geistlichen Beistand zu bieten, war von der kleinen Siedlung noch nicht viel zu erkennen. Aber der Gottesmann sah vor dem geistigen Auge bereits eine lebendige, mit Steinkirche, Brauerei und Gasthaus versehene Idylle vor sich, die er auch den Holzfällern vermitteln konnte. Mit seiner Begeisterung und Phantasie trieb er auch die nötigen Mittel aus dem deutschen Mutterland auf, um seine Vorhaben verwirklichen zu können - aber vor allem hatte er gleich zu Beginn Joseph Becker getroffen und in ihm den Mann, der die Kirche mit den notwendigen Heiligenstatuen versehen konnte. Sein begnadetes Schnitztalent und die Gabe der Schneiderkunst, die seine Frau beherrschte, hatte auch Klara, die Enkelin, geerbt. Aber sein wertvolles Schnitzwerkzeug wollte der Großvater dennoch nicht ihr vermachen, sondern ihrem Bruder Tilman.
