Abstract

T.B. Rogers nous entretient d une ballade terre-neuvienne “The Southern Cross”, laquelle fut inspirée par la disparition d un célèbre navire-chasseur de phoque en avril 1914. Il compare donc le texte de la chanson aux comptes-rendes qu en ont fait les journaux de l'époque pour montrer son exactitude et ses sources probables et ainsi démontrer comment la signification de la chanson est enrichi par sa façon d incorporer coutumes et dialecte terre-neuvien.
