Papists in a Protestant World: the Catholic Anglo-Atlantic in the Seventeenth Century
PAPISTS IN A PROTESTANT WORLD: THE CATHOLIC ANGLO-ATLANTIC IN THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History By Shona Helen Johnston, M.Phil. Washington, DC May 11, 2011 Copyright 2011 by Shona Helen Johnston All Rights Reserved ii PAPISTS IN A PROTESTANT WORLD: THE CATHOLIC ANGLO-ATLANTIC IN THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY Shona Helen Johnston, M.Phil. Thesis Advisor: Alison F. Games, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Scholars of English expansion have rightly located the roots of the English Atlantic world in the turmoil and transitions of the seventeenth century, but they have too often concentrated on the narrow and premature definition of early modern England as a Protestant nation and empire. While the seventeenth-century Anglo-Atlantic remained predominantly populated and ruled by Protestants, it was not a Protestant empire. This dissertation focuses on identifying individual Catholic inhabitants—broadly envisioned to encompass migrants from the British Isles, other European settlers, enslaved Africans, and American converts—to shed light on the diverse religious constitution of the English Atlantic world. It asks what happened to those migrants and settlers who contradicted the dominant religious and political identity of England and English global expansion and seeks to better understand how England and the English colonies became a Protestant world over the course of the seventeenth century. Five thematic chapters stitch together evidence from a range of interdisciplinary sources —from narrative accounts to colonial records and archaeological evidence—to recover and reconstruct the lived experience of Catholic inhabitants of the English colonies. -
