Personnel–Angélique Site
This site is the result of the work put in by many people from various horizons. Denyse Beaugrand-Champagne, historian, and Léon Robichaud, of the Department of History and Political Science of the Université de Sherbrooke, have developed the site content. Ms. Beaugrand-Champagne transcribed the documents and Mr. Robichaud saw to their inclusion in the database. Alan M. Stewart proofread the transcriptions of historical documents while Marie Gagnon revised modern texts written in French. "Interpretations" were written by Denyse Beaugrand-Champagne, Dorothy W. Williams, Marquise Lepage and Monique Dauphin. Claire Beaugrand-Champagne photographed archival documents. Illustrations of Angélique are original artwork by Annie Beaugrand-Champagne.
Suzanne O'Connor translated the documents from French to English, and Rose-Anne
Chabot edited the translated texts.
The 3-D reconstitution of the town of Montréal was adapted by Léon Robichaud
and Mathieu Bilodeau from the environment modelled in 1992 by the Canadian
Centre for Architecture in collaboration with the Centre for Landscape Research
of the University of Toronto. Kim Petit provided additional research for the
reconstitution.
Design
The Website was designed by Don Craig of Hot House Marketing, Victoria. The colours were inspired by the manuscript paper. Angélique's portrait is original artwork by Annie Beaugrand-Champagne. The building in flames is taken from a painting of the fire of the Parliament of Canada in 1849, attributed to Joseph Légaré, and preserved at the McCord Museum. The wax seal of the Juridiction royale de Montréal was photographed off a document preserved at Bibliothèque et Archives nationales du Québec. The drawing at the bottom of each page was adapted from the plan of the canal along rue Saint-Paul in 1734, also preserved at BANQ. All these graphic elements are used with permission. The soundtrack for the introductory animation was created by Justin R. Durban, http://www.edgen.com/. The sound of the fire comes from the http://psychic3d.free.fr/ sound gallery.
