Professor Emeritus in Memoriam

Edwin Robert Black passed away in Kitchener, Ontario, on December 1, 2023, at the age of 94. 

The following obituary is from the .

Ed was born in 1929 in Toronto and grew up in Long Branch during the Great Depression and the Second World War. His parents were Lily Pearl McKinley (a Bell telephone operator) and Frederick Black (a carpenter). Like his father, Ed was actively engaged in the Boy Scout movement, and eventually became a King鈥檚 Scout, the highest achievement in the scouting world. It gave him a set of skills that were to come in very handy in the years to come. When the Second World War arrived, his father joined the army and the remaining family (which by then included four children) was left with few financial resources. Their resourceful mother who had a positive, cheerful outlook on life, was able to compensate in many ways for the lack of material wealth. Ed, the eldest of the siblings (followed by Earl, Ralph, and Carol) inherited his parents鈥 gregarious personalities, and was very intelligent and inquisitive. He did well in school, participating in clubs and serving as business manager to the Avalanche, the high school yearbook. Always a hard worker, Ed picked up many jobs to help with his family鈥檚 finances, including stints as a ditch digger, ice carrier (for the iceboxes), and truck driver - whatever he could find in those challenging times.  
 
After high school he went on to earn a bachelor鈥檚 degree at the University of Western Ontario. He distinguished himself in his final year by winning a scholarship in journalism. Following graduation, he worked as a newspaper reporter and editor in a number of places, including Queen鈥檚 Park, Montreal, Hamilton, Kapuskasing, and Vancouver.
 
On October 25, 1952, he married Anne Euphemia Cover, marking the beginning of a long, mutually-supportive partnership鈥攐ne that was to last over 70 years. Three children followed: Robert Evan (1953), Catherine Pearl (1955) and Mary Louise (1957), all of whom benefited from the friendly, engaged, and inquisitive natures of both their parents. A parental emphasis on reading, camping, racquet sports, family games, and the encouragement of independent thinking, made for a very enriched upbringing for the children. Family dinners often included an eclectic mix of people from all over the world. After completing graduate work, Ed became a university professor and at Christmas break, Anne always sent Ed to the university to invite for dinner any international students who could not get home for the holiday.
 
Ed would not have become an academic if Anne had not encouraged him to pursue his studies. While still working nights as a journalist for the Vancouver Province, he earned a Master of Arts degree in political science at the University of British Columbia.  After he won a modest scholarship to undertake a PhD at Duke University in North Carolina, the family of five headed off, camping across the country, with all their worldly belongings loaded into trailer hitched behind a little Morris Minor. The trailer broke down somewhere in the prairies so Ed and Anne piled what belongings they could around their three kids in the car and left the rest behind on the side of the road and completed their journey south. In Durham, N.C., the family subsisted on a small stipend. Anne took care of the kids while Ed worked day and night. With almost all their belongings abandoned by the roadside, ever resourceful Ed hammered together functional furniture from fibreboard. He splashed on a dark wood stain as a finishing touch鈥攈is 鈥済o-to鈥 approach for any of the household carpentry jobs in the many decades to follow. He completed his PhD in two years, including the rigorous comprehensive exams, and French and German language requirements. The clean copy of his dissertation was carefully typed by Anne at night after the kids were in bed. That dissertation would serve as the foundation for his well-known book on Canadian federalism: . In years to follow, he and a group of colleagues and friends (including Alan Cairns, Don Smiley, Ron Watts, and Richard Simeon) made notable contributions to the field of Canadian federalism.  After Duke University, Ed began his distinguished academic career in the political science department at the University of British Columbia.
 
He joined Queen鈥檚 University in 1967. He published books and articles on a wide range of subjects, including federalism, Canadian politics, political communications, and public administration. An 18-month leave period allowed him to join the staff of the House of Commons, where, under the leadership of Robert Stanfield, he set up and directed the Research Office of the Official Opposition. Later, as director of Queen鈥檚 School of Public Administration, he set up the Master of Public Administration program for working public servants. A long-time member of McGill-Queen鈥檚 University Press, he also held organizational positions at the Centre for Resource Studies, the Institute for Inter-Governmental Relations, and the Canadian Journal of Political Science. He was president of the Canadian Political Science Association and also served as head of the Department of Political Studies. He retired from Queen鈥檚 in 1994. 
 
At his retirement party, all the guests turned up wearing bowties, to honour his unique sartorial style. Former colleagues, staff, and students remarked on his rigorous, energetic, and accomplished leadership, as well as his exemplary approach to teaching, research, and administration鈥攁n approach they said instilled in them a desire to strive for their very best.  His eclectic interests included both setting up and maintaining the first computers in the political science department. Students were loyal, devoted, and very appreciative, although often intimidated by his daunting (sometimes terrifying) ability at intellectual jousting.  Many have commented on being on the sharp point of one of his ripostes. They made sure they were well-prepared for class! Nevertheless, he was a highly sought-after graduate student advisor.
 
Ed was an outstanding mentor to his students, colleagues, children and so many others. He was honest, wise, fair, patient and kind, typically giving others the benefit of the doubt, including those students and junior instructors who tried the patience of many of his colleagues. A pacifist and a progressive, Ed believed strongly in good governance, and a tolerant, just society. Well ahead of his time, in 1972 he published a paper advocating for guaranteed annual minimum income for all Canadians.
 
After retirement, Ed travelled West to spend a few years helping to launch the University of Northern British Columbia, then settled in Kitchener-Waterloo, where for a brief time he served as an adjunct professor in the University of Waterloo's Political Science department and on the editorial board of the Canadian Journal of Political Science.
 
In the three decades that followed, he contributed his considerable energies to various community causes, winning a number of 鈥渙utstanding volunteer鈥 awards. He rarely attended the award ceremonies; he preferred to engage in numerous other activities that occupied his busy mind. In his words he 鈥溾 fiddled a lot helping seniors with their computers, organized district senior summer games and terrorized others on area golf courses.鈥 And that was only a fraction of his diverse pursuits, which also included being a lifelong supporter of the local symphony. During retirement, he and Anne were able to pursue their passion for travel, appreciating different cultures and traditions in many parts of the world.
 
A few months before he passed away, his devoted wife, Anne, died. They cared for, and took care of, each other until the end. Ed is survived by his sister Carol Simone Kay, his three children, Robert Black (Cathy), Catherine Cook (William), Mary Louise Kattides (Evangelos), seven grandchildren, John (Lisa), Catherine (Paul), William (Beyza), Christina (Joel), Mary Alexandra (Brandon), David, and Christine (Conor), and five great-grandchildren, Benjamin, William, Nathan, William, and Jack.

Political Studies

Professor Emeritus in Memoriam

John Alexander Wilson Gunn, a world-renowned scholar in 17th and 18th-century political thought, died March 7, 2023, in Kingston. Known professionally as J.A.W. Gunn, he was called Jock by family and friends. Jock is survived by his partner Mary Jane; children James and Andrea (Manuel); and brother Ted (Louise).

Jock was born in Quebec City in 1937. He earned an honours B.A. in politics and history from 成人大片 in 1959; an M.A. in political economy from the University of Toronto in 1961; and a D. Phil. from Nuffield College, University of Oxford, in 1966.

Jock joined the Queen鈥檚 Political and Economic Science department in 1960 as a lecturer while still completing his graduate studies. His professors at Queen鈥檚, John Meisel and Alec Corry, had recognized their former student鈥檚 spark of brilliance, and wanted to bring him back to Kingston. After Jock completed his doctoral studies, he returned to Queen鈥檚 to support the nascent Department of Political Studies under the direction of Meisel, who later wrote in his memoirs:

In Jock Gunn, we recruited a peerless scholar whose extensive command of the literature and commitment to a lofty ideal of a university added a significant dimension to what we had to offer.

Jock鈥檚 doctoral thesis (directed by John Plamenatz) was later published as Politics and the Public Interest in the Seventeenth Century (1969). In 1971, he published Factions No More: Attitudes to Party in Government and Opposition in Eighteenth-Century England.

While still a student, Jock worked with Frontier College, supporting that organization鈥檚 goal to bring literacy and the love of reading to adult learners. As a professor, Jock challenged his students to read deeply, think critically, and write clearly and sensibly. In his classroom, Jock never relied on notes: in his lectures, he spoke both spontaneously and eloquently on political ideas and ideals. His classes were designed to spark intellectual curiosity and to help his students utilize existing - or develop new - skills in comprehension, inquiry, and analysis. In addition to his undergraduate teaching, Jock supervised 14 doctoral students. Many of his students, both undergraduate and graduate, kept in touch with him decades after they graduated. Some of his best students went on to become writers, journalists, diplomats, lawyers, policymakers, and teachers; Jock followed each of their career paths with interest.

Between 1975 and 1983, Jock served as head of the Department of Political Studies at Queen鈥檚. There, he was one of three editors of the first two volumes of the letters of Benjamin Disraeli (1982). Jock鈥檚 next book, Beyond Liberty and Property: The Process of Self-Recognition in Eighteenth-Century Political Thought, was published in 1983. This work, drawing upon a variety of primary sources, from newspapers and political pamphlets to parliamentary debates, sermons, and private correspondence, offered a bold new approach to the understanding of the public mind and political ideas in Britain. That year, Jock was elected to the Royal Society of Canada in recognition of his remarkable contributions to the social sciences.

Later turning to the study of French political ideas, Jock published Queen of the World: Opinion in the Public Life of France from the Renaissance to the Revolution in 1995. The same year, succeeding his colleague John Meisel, he was appointed by the Queen鈥檚 Board of Trustees the Sir Edward Peacock Professor of Political Studies, a position that honours outstanding contribution to the field of political studies. His citation noted that Jock was 鈥渙ne of the department鈥檚 most distinguished academics over the past three decades. His international reputation in political thought has brought credit both to the department and the university.鈥 Jock allocated a portion of the funds associated with the Peacock Chair to purchase items for the British Political Pamphlets Collection at the Queen鈥檚 University Library. He also contributed his expertise in recommending notable and rare acquisitions for the library.

Jock retired officially from Queen鈥檚 in 2002 but, for several years and due to popular demand, came back to teach undergraduate courses. His last book, When the French Tried to Be British: Party, Opposition, and the Quest for Civil Disagreement 1814 - 1848, was published in 2009.

Jock鈥檚 family thanks those who supported him in his last months, notably the staff at Cataraqui Heights Retirement Residence; St. Elizabeth鈥檚 Nursing Services; Home and Community Care Support Services; and Dr. Marie Colantonio.

Donations in Jock鈥檚 memory may be made to Queen鈥檚 University to be directed to the , or to a charity of your choice.

A reception in Jock鈥檚 memory was held on March 25, 2023 at James Reid Funeral Home in Kingston.

A professor at Queen鈥檚 University beginning in 1949, John Meisel (b. 1923) was a pioneer in research on political behavior in Canada, writing widely on political parties, elections, Quebec politics, broadcasting, and culture policy. Throughout his career, he has led the broader scholarly community, serving as the founding editor of both the Canadian Journal of Political Science and the International Political Science Review, as well as the president of the Royal Society of Canada.

Professor Meisel was also a public intellectual, contributing to public debates over major controversies. During the political battles over the constitution, he worked hard at maintaining intellectual linkages between Quebec and the rest of Canada. A strong supporter of Canadian culture and the arts, he was appointed as chair of the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC), overseeing the introduction of pay TV in the country. His contributions to Canada were recognized in 1989 when he was made an officer of the Order of Canada, and again in 1999, when he was promoted to Companion, the highest grade in the Order.

Charming, engaging, optimistic, enthusiastic: John remains all of these things. As a member of the Queen鈥檚 community, John was all of these and more.

He was a wonderful teacher, inspiring generations of students to engage in political and cultural life. As department head, he recruited stellar new faculty, helping to build the department into one of the strongest in the country. He was an enthusiastic mentor, supporting his younger colleagues and drawing them into national and international networks. Long retired but still renowned on campus, John remains a symbol of the best of the Queen鈥檚 tradition.

To learn more about John, we highly recommend his 2012 memoir, (Wintergreen Studios Press).
