Abstract:Cet article explore le lien entre l'émigration et les épidémies de choléra à Halifax entre 1832 et 1866. Les pressions associées à la migration en provenance des îles Britanniques ainsi que la menace et l'existence de maladies transmissibles telles que le choléra révèlent la vulnérabilité et les contraintes ressenties en tant que ville portuaire coloniale située au bord de l'Atlantique Nord. Cet article présente les difficultés et les tensions évidentes suscitées par la gestion des émigrants, dont beaucoup se rendaient à un territoire au-delà de la Nouvelle-Écosse. Non seulement elle aide à comprendre l'histoire des mesures de gestion du choléra à Halifax, mais aussi elle procure une perspective unique sur les grandes difficultés de la vie coloniale au 19e siècle.Abstract:This article explores the relationship between emigration and outbreaks of cholera in Halifax between 1832 and 1866.

摘要:本文探讨了1832年至1866年间哈利法克斯的移民与霍乱爆发之间的联系。来自不列颠群岛的移民带来的压力,以及霍乱等传染病的威胁和存在,表明了作为北大西洋沿岸的殖民港口城市所感受到的脆弱性和限制。这篇文章讨论了管理移民的明显困难和紧张,其中许多人前往新斯科舍以外的领土。它不仅有助于了解哈利法克斯霍乱管理措施的历史,而且还提供了一个独特的视角,了解19世纪殖民生活的巨大困难。摘要:本文探讨了1832年至1866年间哈利法克斯cholera的移民与爆发之间的关系。与英属群岛移民有关的压力,以及霍乱等传染性疾病的威胁和现实,揭示了北大西洋外的一个殖民港口城镇的脆弱性和污名。这篇presents the斗争and managing移民看似紧张的心情,many of which were bound for领土beyond Nova Scotia谅解,and造就not only to the historical of how,霍乱was with in Halifax but also provides a独特的视角可以谅解(the greater殖民19th-century人生的斗争中。
