Joseph Groulx
Joseph Groulx (c.1884 – ?), was a Franco-Ontarian storyteller from Tecumseh, Ontario, an area of Southwestern Ontario with a small, French-speaking minority. Claimed significance of Groulx's work In 1940, he reportedly assisted a French-language scholar, Joseph Médard Carrière, in transcribing French stories, which were added to a university folklore database and eventually published in Donald Deschênes and Marcel Bénéteau's ''Contes du Détroit '' (Prise de parole, 2005), which won the Prix Mnémo in 2006. Groulx's stories are said to be particularly significant for the fact that they testify to the survival into the 20th century of a French-language storytelling tradition in the Windsor/Detroit area. Ongoing research efforts into Groulx's work Deschênes and Bénéteau point out, however, that an element of obscurity surrounds the reported work of Groulx with his transcriber Carrière: there was little evidence that Carrière ever spent any significant time in the De ...
