“…After two years that included several gatherings, community café consultations, as well as a photovoice project, the City of Th ompson asked us to conduct a Point-in-Time (PiT) Homeless Count that would provide much-needed statistics to the city. Th is research added to and complemented the more qualitative community-based research that we had carried out (M. M. Bonnycastle, Simpkins, Bonnycastle, & Matiasek, 2015). Both universities coordinated two PiT homelessness counts and, after the authors of this article left from Th ompson, a third PiT homelessness count was conducted.…”

The focus of this article is to share and refl ect on our collaborative teaching, research, and community engagement experiences in the context of the Provincial North. We believe the university has a critical role to play in collaborative participatory research. This is particularly crucial when working in remote and northern communities in Canada that have been impacted by colonization and systemic issues such as racism and economic dependency on natural resource exploitation where prices fl uctuate due to international demand. We will describe our experiences and methods of teaching, learning, and community engagement through which students, faculty, and community members engaged in community based participatory research (CBPR). The focus of this work was on the inclusion of community voices in order to share local knowledge and make decisions about future development. In this article we fi rst describe the geographical and socio-economic context of Northern Manitoba, Canada, and the City of Thompson. We then describe the methods used (appreciative inquiry, community café consultations, photovoice, participatory mapping) to include the voices of northern female students, as well as those experiencing homelessness, in order to be included in decisions about future initiatives and programs. We conclude with refl ections on our experiences of the processes of using CBPR and on its potential contribution to sustainable development (Hall & Tandon, 2017), the importance of university-community engagement, and the contributions that can also potentially extend to communities across the Provincial North.

“…16 Like Wright, he claims his letters originated as familiar letters 'for the private use of an individual', but since no introduction to astronomy of its sort was available to the general reader, he 'was induced to make them public'. 17 The letter form, Bonnycastle states, allows him to write in a sufficiently accessible style for a popular readership, 'to make free use of the labours of preceding Writers' without necessarily acknowledging the debt, and in particular to include 'frequent allusions to the Poets […] intended as an agreeable relief to minds unaccustomed to the regular deduction of facts by mathematical reasoning'. 18 Somewhat surprisingly, then, at the beginning of Letter I, the 'master' complains that the epistolary mode of instruction requested by their correspondent is 'less favourable to improvement' than the preferred 'personal intercourse', which is, however, rendered impossible by their 'different situations and engagements'.…”

Astronomy, a paradigmatic observational discipline of early modern ‘science’, relied on epistolary communication for coordinating practitioners across the world, publishing discoveries and theories, and seeking their confirmation from other virtuosi. Epistolary form ‘travelled’ from an individual exchange between scholars, via the print publication of such letters for the benefit of a wider readership, to the framing of bespoke isagogic textbooks. This article explores the affordances of Restoration printed astronomical letters, contrasting their performance of familiarity between sender and recipient with the public nature of the communication. By reference to letters published in the Philosophical Transactions, individual print letters, and letter‐books, including Christiaan Huygens's Cosmotheoros, the article shows how each type utilizes the familiar and the formal aspects of the letter form differently. The print letter emerges as a form uniquely suited for performing individual authority and fashioning an expert community, as well as communicating expert knowledge to non‐specialists.
