- George_Ramsay_Cook abstract "George Ramsay Cook, OC, FRSC (born November 28, 1931 in Alameda, Saskatchewan), is a Canadian historian and general editor of the Dictionary of Canadian Biography. He was professor of history at York University for 25 years until 1996. Through his championing of so-called "limited identities", Cook contributed to the rise of the New Social History, which uses "class, gender and ethnicity" as its three main categories of analysis. Cook's conception of "limited identities" was famously formulated in an article in the International Journal in 1967, Canada's centenary year, reviewing the state of contemporary scholarship on Canadian nationalism: After six new books on the great Canadian problem — our lack ofunity and identity — are we getting any nearer the source of the problem?Undoubtedly something is achieved: if nothing else one can wonder if thesearch is worth the effort. Certainly we should continue to try to understandourselves; an unexamined nation is not worth living in. But itmay be that the frame of reference is wrong. Perhaps instead of constantlydeploring our lack of identity, we should attempt to understandand explain the regional, ethnic and class identities that we do have. Itmight just be that it is in these limited identities that "Canadianism" isfound, and that except for our over-heated nationalist intellectuals,Canadians find this situation quite satisfactory.During his teaching career, Cook supervised the work of many prominent social historians such as Franca Iacovetta.In 1997, the Ramsay Cook Research Scholarship was established at York University to honour his contribution to the field of history.He publicly supported Pierre Elliott Trudeau in his attempt to gain the leadership of the Liberal Party of Canada in 1968.He is married to Eleanor Cook, an English professor at the University of Toronto".
