鈥淲hen it鈥檚 over, you鈥檒l wish it weren鈥檛. You will also feel better about being alive. Do yourself a favour, don't miss this one!鈥� - John Leonard

鈥淭he extraordinary, internationally embraced "Yi Yi," directed by the late Taiwanese master Edward Yang, follows a middle-class family in Taipei over the course of one year, beginning with a wedding and ending with a funeral. Whether chronicling middle-aged father NJ鈥檚 tentative flirtations with an old flame or precocious young son Yang-Yang鈥檚 attempts at capturing reality with his beloved camera, the filmmaker deftly imbues every gorgeous frame with a compassionate clarity. Warm, sprawling, and dazzling, this intimate epic is one of the undisputed masterworks of the twenty-first century鈥�-The Criterion Collection

As part of our ongoing 50th Anniversary observances, the Robertson Library is pleased to celebrate the centrepiece of our University Archives and Special Collections, the Prince Edward Island Collection, with a guest lecture from The Reverend Edward Rix, one of the foremost independent collectors of Island books and ephemera. A proud Islander, with deep family roots in West Prince, Father Rix studied at the University of King鈥檚 College in Halifax, the University of Toronto鈥檚 Wycliffe College, and Dalhousie University in Halifax. It was during his university days that he began to turn his passion for books into a successful venture as an independent bookseller and collector, learning from some of Canada鈥檚 leading rare and antiquarian book dealers. Since 2001, he has served as Priest in Charge of the Parish of All Saints Episcopal Church in Wynnewood, a western suburb of Philadelphia, where he has continued to build a remarkable personal library, including some 2000 titles relating to Prince Edward Island, with exemplary collections of the works of Basil King and Milton Acorn as particular highlights.

Please join us at the Library on Thursday, November 6 at 7 pm to hear Father Rix share highlights from his PEI collecting adventures, and how the careers of many Island authors in the 1800s and 1900s underscored the observation of Island essayist Sir Andrew Macphail 鈥� another writer well-represented in Rix鈥檚 collection 鈥� that our Province鈥檚 chief export for many years was, 鈥渂rains.鈥� Special selections from his library and from our own PEI Collection will be displayed at the talk. All are welcome, and admission is free, but donations to the ongoing fundraising campaign will be gratefully received. Light refreshments will be served.

Title of the Thesis:  "Assessing Coastal Erosion Under Climate Change:  A Case Study of Prince Edward Island"

Coastal erosion, exacerbated by climate change, threatens global communities. Traditional vulnerability assessments often underestimate climate-induced dynamic oceanic processes. This research addresses this gap by developing a process-based framework to quantify the role of extreme waves, using Prince Edward Island's vulnerable coastline as a case study. Analysis of Hurricane Fiona (2022) demonstrated the capacity of single storms to cause catastrophic land loss far exceeding long-term averages. Furthermore, correlation with multi-decadal wave data confirmed that the frequency of extreme wave events instead of average wave heights is the primary erosion driver. Future climate projections under intensified scenarios reveal a non-linear relationship, where increased extreme storm disproportionately amplifies wave heights and the corresponding potential coastline retreat, while critically shortening recovery periods. This work advocates a paradigm shift toward dynamic, process-based vulnerability assessments to guide mitigation and enhance coastal resilience globally.
