"Canada's brand of nationalism celebrates diversity--so long as it doesn't challenge the unity, authority, or legitimacy of the state. Caitlin Gordon-Walker explores this tension between unity and diversity in three nationally recognized museums, institutions that must make judgments about what counts as "too different" in order to celebrate who we are as a people and nation through exhibits, programs, and design. Although the contradictions that lie at the heart of multicultural nationalism have the potential to constrain political engagement and dialogue, the sensory feasts on display in Canada's museums provide a space for citizens to both question and renegotiate the limits of their national vision."--

Conceived as a showcase for Britain's burgeoning manufacturing industries and the exotic products of its Empire, the Great Exhibition at the Crystal Palace was Britain's first truly national spectacle. This text examines the story of how the exhibition came into being; the key characters who made it happen (from Prince Albert, who was credited with the idea, to Thomas Cook, whose cheap railway trips ensured its accessibility to all); and the tales behind the exhibitors and exhibits themselves, from the Koh-i-noor diamond to the more quirky inventions on display, such as a bed that physically ejected its occupant in the morning. One quarter of the British population had visited the exhibition by its close. This is the story of how it fired the imagination of the era.

World's fairs have changed the global modern landscape, joining nations while also promoting nationalism and, at times, imperialist agendas. This thesis examines two prominent world exhibitions, the Paris 1867 Exposition Universelle and the St. Louis 1904 Louisiana Purchase International Exposition, and it investigates the methodology each nation deployed to portray its identity through the representation of its own and other cultures. Particularly in their commemorations of colonial endeavors, each fair presented a national identity that reveals a particular ideology through exhibition classification systems. In particular, as I will show, the Paris Exposition focused on industry and the St. Louis Fair emphasized race. As this thesis will demonstrate, the 1867 Exposition Universelle and the Louisiana Purchase International Exposition are the best examples of the use of nationalism and "othering" in the form of exhibitions.^As I will show, we can sum up these fairs in two very different ways, each of which reflects a different set of national priorities from cities that were attempting to present their respective nations as the most progressive of their time. Specifically, the French Exposition collected and surveyed machinery and consumer goods to display their nation as technologically progressive. By contrast, the United States presented their national pride through the celebration of their imperialistic endeavors, exhibiting Native Americans as well as non-western races deemed inferior by the U.S. Technological innovation was the most significant for France, whereas for the U.S., the St. Louis Fair provided the opportunity to further the ideology of Manifest Destiny and other racist ideas. The display of culture and progress at the Paris Exposition served as a paradigm for the St. Louis Fair; the display of French nationalism was superseded by the display of race at St. Louis.^The structure and display of national pride at the 1867 Exposition developed and increased with each subsequent world's fair, leading to the imperial display of race at the St. Louis Fair.
