Yvan Lamonde (30 March 1944 – 26 August 2025) was a Canadian academic and historian. He was a professor at McGill University specializing in Quebec literature.

Life and career

Born in Saint-Tite on 30 March 1944, Lamonde graduated from the Université de Montréal and the Université Laval. He extensively studied the sociography of Quebec, believing that the Quebec identity was based more on the liberal tradition of North America than on French culture and Roman Catholicism, as evidenced in his books Histoire sociale des idées au Québec and Brève histoire des idées au Québec. In 2008, he published an autobiography titled Historien et citoyen: navigations au long cours in collaboration with Claude Corbo. He was a member of the Académie des lettres du Québec, the Royal Society of Canada, and the Société des Dix [fr]. His works can be found at the McGill University Archives.

Lamonde died on 26 August 2025, at the age of 81.
