After a masterly and graceful preliminary the learned historian said "I am willing to apply that criterion to Louisiana, considered both physically and historically; I am willing that my native State, which is but a fragrant of what Louisiana formerly was, should stand and fall by that test, and do not fear to approach with her the seat of judgment. I am prepared to show that her history is full of poetry of the highest order, and of the most varied nature. I have studied the subject "con amore," and with such reverential enthusiasm, and I may say with such filial piety, that it has grown upon my heart as well as upon my mind.

  • A Confusion of Institutions: Spanish Law and Practice in a Francophone Colony, Louisiana, 1763-Circa 1798
    THE TULANE EUROPEAN AND CIVIL LAW FORUM VOLUME 31/32 2017 A Confusion of Institutions: Spanish Law and Practice in a Francophone Colony, Louisiana, 1763-circa 1798 Paul E Hoffman* I. INTRODUCTION ..................................................................................... 1 II. THE ECONOMIC SYSTEM AND LOCAL LAW AND ORDER .................... 4 III. SLAVERY ............................................................................................. 13 IV. CONCLUSION ...................................................................................... 20 I. INTRODUCTION French Louisiana had been a thorn in the flank of Spain’s Atlantic Empire from its founding in 1699. Failure to remove that thorn in 1699 and again in 1716, when doing so would have been comparatively easy and Spanish naval forces were positioned to do so, meant that by 1762 the wound had festered, so that the colony had become what La Salle, Iberville, Bienville, and their royal masters had envisioned: a smuggling station through which French goods reached New Spain and Cuba and their goods—dye stuffs and silver mostly—reached France and helped to pay the costs of a colony that consumed more than it produced, at least so 1 far as the French crown’s finances were concerned. * © 2017 Paul E Hoffman. Professor Emeritus of History, Louisiana State University. 1. I have borrowed the “thorn” from ROBERT S. WEDDLE, THE FRENCH THORN: RIVAL EXPLORERS IN THE SPANISH SEA, 1682-1762 (1991); ROBERT S. WEDDLE, CHANGING TIDES: TWILIGHT AND DAWN IN THE SPANISH SEA, 1763-1803 (1995) (carries the story of explorations).

During this period, New Orleans’ vendors labored in the streets of diverse neighborhoods where they did more than sell a vital commodity. As “Nourishing Networks” demonstrates, the food economy provided the disenfranchised—people of color, women, and recent migrants—a means to connect themselves to the public culture of the city, despite legal prohibitions intended to keep them on the margins. Those who were legally marginalized exercised considerable influence over the city’s public culture, shaping both economic and social interactions among urban residents in the public sphere.

  • CAJUNS, CREOLES, PIRATES and PLANTERS Your New Louisiana Ancestors Format Volume 2, Number 33
    CAJUNS, CREOLES, PIRATES AND PLANTERS Your New Louisiana Ancestors Format Volume 2, Number 33 By Damon Veach SLAVE REBELLION: The Greater New Orleans Louis A. Martinet Society, through its President-Elect, Sharrolyn Jackson Miles, is laying the groundwork for an important event. January 2011 will be the Bicentennial of what has been passed down as the German Coast Uprising or Slave Rebellion. This society and other local attorneys and supporters are interested in commemorating the events surrounding the historic 1811 slave uprising which took place at the German Coast which is now part of St. John and St. Charles parishes. The revolt began on January 8, 1811 and was led by Charles Deslondes, a free person of color working as a laborer on the Deslondes plantation. During the insurrection, approximately 200 slaves escaped from their plantations and joined the insurgents as they marched 20 miles downriver toward New Orleans. The rebellion was quashed a couple of days later when a militia of planters led by Colonel Manuel Andry attacked them at Destrehan Plantation. According to reports, 95 slaves were killed in the aftermath including 18 who were tried and executed at the Destrehan Plantation and 11 who were tried and executed in New Orleans. The slaves were executed by decapitation or hanging and the heads of some of the slaves were placed on stakes at plantations as a warning to others. This organization feels that it is very important that Louisianans take the time to remember this historic revolt which has been documented as the largest slave revolt in United States history.
