Documents de Jean-Charles Magnan

Cette série comprend, outre des notes biographiques sur la carrière de Jean-Charles Magnan et sa tentative de se faire élire comme député de Portneuf aux élections fédérales de 1945, des écrits, une correspondance générale, c'est-à-dire une correspondance composée de lettres reçues et expédiées, ainsi que des dossiers se rapportant à l'enseignement agricole. Les discours, conférences, causeries, préfaces et articles de Magnan portent bien sûr sur l'agriculture, mais plus précisément sur le drainage des terres (1913), la Société d'agriculture du comté de Portneuf (1920), le Service des agronomes du ministère de l'Agriculture (1932), le Service de l'enseignement agricole (1937) et le premier Congrès de l'enseignement agricole (1937). Nous y trouvons aussi des textes de souvenirs, lesquels incluent sa candidature aux élections fédérales de 1945 dans le comté de Portneuf, ses voyages en France, à Haïti et aux Antilles (1925-1935) tout comme ses critiques sur la fonction publique québécoise (1941). La correspondance, qui s'étend de 1910 à 1982, est composée de lettres provenant des membres de sa famille (son père Charles-Joseph, son oncle Hormisdas Magnan, Omer Héroux); d'échanges avec des collègues agronomes, d'hommes politiques et dirigeants des ministères (dont les Premiers ministres Lomer Gouin, Adélard Godbout et Maurice Duplessis); de lettres de responsables d'écoles d'agriculture ou de l'enseignement agricole à travers la Province. Une large partie de cette correspondance a été regroupée, par ailleurs, par groupe de destinataires ou par événement: des lettres reçues et adressées à des institutions françaises telle l'Académie d'agriculture de France, le Comité de l'école paysanne, la Société d'astronomie de Paris (1949-1952); des lettres reçues d'Haïtiens et expédiées au sujet de la publication de son livre intitulé HAÏTI et d'une Exposition internationale agricole à Port-au-Prince (1949-1952); une correspondance dite «personnelle» avec l'étranger qui se rapporte surtout à des questions d'enseignement agricole. Les pièces épistolaires comptent plusieurs correspondants desquels font partie Georges Bouchard, Lionel Groulx, Félix-Antoine Savard, Louis-Philippe Roy, Bona Dussault, Maurice Proulx, Claude-Henri Grignon, Paul Comtois, J.-A Marsan, William Henry Moore, René Pomerleau, Mgr Camille Roy, l'abbé Maurice Tessier et Mgr Louis-Adolphe Paquet. Les dossiers qui témoignent des innombrables activités de Jean-Charles Magnan en ce qui concerne l'enseignement agricole, contiennent des coupures de presse, des articles, des rapports, des études, des mémoires au gouvernement via des comités d'étude et d'enquête. Ces documents, produits au cours des années 1926 à 1960, sont de Jean-Charles Magnan, alors que ceux de la période postérieure, soit de 1961 à 1977, lui sont présentés ou adressés pour ses commentaires. Ces derniers concernent, entre autres, l'École régionale d'agriculture de Saint-Casimir (Portneuf), l'École d'agriculture de Sainte-Croix de Lotbinière, le syndicalisme agricole, l'Institut de technologie agricole de La Pocatière, les concours agricoles, le Cercle des jeunes agriculteurs. La série comprend aussi des documents iconographiques concernant Magnan et ses activités dans le domaine agricole. Nous y trouvons des portraits de Magnan, des groupes et diverses activités à Oka, à Saint-Casimir et dans le comté de Portneuf principalement. Sa carrière d'enseignant et d'agronome est aussi bien illustrée dans les jardins scolaires, avec les Jeunesses rurales, lors de congrès de l'enseignement agricole ou d'agronomes, d'expositions et en Haïti. D'autres documents témoignent des décorations reçues par Magnan, ainsi que des photos de divers personnages et groupes en diverses occasions. Quelques clichés illustrent des écoles d'agriculture et, enfin, plusieurs documents sont des portraits d'agronomes et autres personnalités liées au monde agricole, documents qui furent utilisés par Magnan pour ses publications. Parmi eux, s'y trouvent, entre autres, Georges Maheux, René Pomerleau, Albert Rioux, Paul Couture, le Cardinal Rodrigue Villeneuve, Félix-Antoine Savard. Notons que les documents sont contenus dans douze dossiers. Certains des termes rattachés ont été extraits de descriptions à des niveaux inférieurs apparaissant dans l'instrument de recherche
