Louise Forsyth</h1>
<p style="margin: 10px 0px; padding: 0px; line-height: 19.5px;"><br>
Le 16 mai dernier, Louise Forsyth est décédée à Calgary, en Alberta. Louise était membre honoraire de la SQET depuis 2021. C’était une grande chercheuse et une mentore admirable, en particulier dans les domaines du théâtre québécois et du théâtre des femmes.
Elle a toujours encouragé la communication et l’échange entre le Québec, le Canada francophone et le Canada anglophone.<br>
<br>
Elle a terminé un doctorat en études françaises en 1966 et a été professeure à l’Université Western (ou University of Western Ontario) à London, en Ontario de 1966 à 1991. De 1991 à 1997, elle a été doyenne aux études supérieures et à la recherche et professeure
titulaire au département d’études françaises à l’Université de la Saskatchewan. À partir de 1997 jusqu’à sa retraite officielle comme professeure émérite en 2003, elle a été professeure titulaire au département de Women’s and Gender Studies de l’Université
de la Saskatchewan. Depuis, Louise était associée de recherche au département d’anglais de l’Université de Calgary.<br>
<br>
Pendant sa longue carrière, elle a donné des cours de théâtre québécois et canadien, notamment un séminaire sur le théâtre de Marie Laberge. Elle a fait paraître une anthologie de traductions de pièces de théâtre de femmes en trois volumes, dont plusieurs de
sa plume. Elle a aussi dirigé un ouvrage collectif sur l’œuvre de Nicole Brossard et a publié de nombreux articles et chapitres de livres sur le théâtre et la littérature d’expression française du Québec et du Canada.<br>
<br>
À l’occasion d’une célébration en son honneur organisée par la SQET en 2021, Sylvain Lavoie et Evelyne de la Chenelière ont préparé une courte vidéo pour leur témoigner leur amitié.<br>
<br>
Merci encore à Louise pour sa grande contribution aux études théâtrales.<br>

<div style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;">I am writing this morning with sad news. Yesterday, I was informed by her family that long-time CATR member, Louise Forsyth,
had passed away quietly in Calgary on May 16th, 2024. Her health began to fail after 2022, and while our last visit in February, 2024 went well, she was clearly very fragile even then.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;">Louise was a force in our field as a prolific scholar, brilliant administrator, and gifted mentor and teacher, especially
in the area of Québec theatre and Women's Studies. She will be very much missed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
