  • Parish Apostolate: New Opportunities in the Local Church
    IV. PARISH APOSTOLATE: NEW OPPORTUNITIES IN THE LOCAL CHURCH by John E. Rybolt, C.M. Beginning with the original contract establishing the Community, 17 April 1625, Vincentians have worked in parishes. At fIrst they merely assisted diocesan pastors, but with the foundation at Toul in 1635, the fIrst outside of Paris, they assumed local pastorates. Saint Vincent himself had been the pastor of Clichy-Ia-Garenne near Paris (1612-1625), and briefly (1617) of Buenans and Chatillon­ les-Dombes in the diocese of Lyons. Later, as superior general, he accepted eight parish foundations for his community. He did so with some misgiving, however, fearing the abandonment of the country poor. A letter of 1653 presents at least part of his outlook: ., .parishes are not our affair. We have very few, as you know, and those that we have have been given to us against our will, or by our founders or by their lordships the bishops, whom we cannot refuse in order not to be on bad terms with them, and perhaps the one in Brial is the last that we will ever accept, because the further along we go, the more we fmd ourselves embarrassed by such matters. l In the same spirit, the early assemblies of the Community insisted that parishes formed an exception to its usual works. The assembly of 1724 states what other Vincentian documents often said: Parishes should not ordinarily be accepted, but they may be accepted on the rare occasions when the superior general .. , [and] his consul­ tors judge it expedient in the Lord.2 229 Beginnings to 1830 The founding document of the Community's mission in the United States signed by Bishop Louis Dubourg, Fathers Domenico Sicardi and Felix De Andreis, spells out their attitude toward parishes in the new world, an attitude differing in some respects from that of the 1724 assembly.

  • Aboriginal Criminal Justice As Reported by Early French Observers
    — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — “They Punish Murderers, Thieves, Traitors and Sorcerers”: Aboriginal Criminal Justice as Reported by Early French Observers DESMOND H. BROWN* A common theme in the writings of European explorers, historians, and religious emissaries who were among the first to comment on the inhabitants of the western hemisphere was the absence in Aboriginal society of any concept of law. In some cases these early commentators may not have interpreted what they saw correctly, and they used French words with specific legal definitions that were not relevant in the context of the behaviour they attempted to describe. Evidence from their writ- ings, especially those of the Jesuits, shows that there was in fact law among the Native peoples of the northeast, and particularly criminal law, albeit of a different kind and process than French law. In France, with retribution or deterrence as the objective of the judicial system, the individual alone was responsible for his or her actions and suffered punishment accordingly. In contrast, apart from cases of sor- cery or betrayal, which were punishable by death, Aboriginal justice sought to restore social cohesion and harmony among the group by restitution, which was a collective responsibility. L’absence de tout concept de droit dans la société autochtone est un thème récurrent des écrits des explorateurs, historiens et émissaires religieux européens, qui furent parmi les premiers à commenter le mode de vie des habitants de l’hémisphère ouest. Dans certains cas, ces premiers commentateurs ont peut-être mal interprété ce qu’ils ont vu et ils utilisaient des termes français à définition juridique précise ne s’appliquant pas, dans le contexte, au comportement qu’ils tentaient de décrire.

  • Y Establir Nostre Auctorité’: Assertions of Imperial Sovereignty Through Proprietorships and Chartered Companies in New France, 1598-1663
    ‘Y establir nostre auctorité’: Assertions of Imperial Sovereignty through Proprietorships and Chartered Companies in New France, 1598-1663 by Helen Mary Dewar A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Helen Dewar 2012 ‘Y establir nostre auctorité’: Assertions of Imperial Sovereignty through Proprietorships and Chartered Companies in New France, 1598-1663 Helen Dewar Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto 2012 Abstract Current historiography on French empire building in the early modern period rests on a host of unexamined terms, including colony, empire, monopoly, company, and trading privileges. Yet, these terms were anything but fixed, certain or uncomplicated to contemporaries. This dissertation takes as its subject the exercise of authority in New France through proprietorships and companies to get to the political, legal, and ideological heart of French empire building. Organized chronologically, each chapter corresponds to a different constellation of authority, ranging from a proprietorship in which the titleholder subdelegated his trading privileges and administrative authority to two separate parties to a commercial company that managed both jurisdictions. Engaging with cutting-edge international literature on sovereignty, empire formation, and early modern state building, this thesis resituates the story of the colonization of French North America in an Atlantic framework. It relies partly on civil suits that arose in France during the first three decades of the seventeenth century over powers and privileges in New France. This frequent litigation has traditionally been ignored by historians of New France; however, my research suggests that it was an integral part of the process of ii colonization.

  • The Makers of Canada: Champlain
    The Makers Of Canada: Champlain By N.-E. Dionne The Makers Of Canada: Champlain CHAPTER I CHAMPLAIN'S FIRST VOYAGE TO AMERICA SAMUEL CHAMPLAIN, the issue of the marriage of Antoine Champlain and Marguerite Le Roy, was born at Brouage, now Hiers Brouage, a small village in the province of Saintonge, France, in the year 1570, or according to the Biographie Saintongeoise in 1567. His parents belonged to the Catholic religion, as their first names would seem to indicate. When quite young Samuel Champlain was entrusted to the care of the parish priest, who imparted to him the elements of education and instilled his mind with religious principles. His youth appears to have glided quietly away, spent for the most part with his family, and in assisting his father, who was a mariner, in his wanderings upon the sea. The knowledge thus obtained was of great service to him, for after a while he became not only conversant with the life of a mariner, but also with the science of geography and of astronomy. When Samuel Champlain was about twenty years of age, he tendered his services to Marshal d'Aumont, one of the chief commanders of the Catholic army in its expedition against the Huguenots. When the League had done its work and the army was disbanded in 1598, Champlain returned to Brouage, and sought a favourable opportunity to advance his fortune in a manner more agreeable, if possible, to his tastes, and more compatible with his abilities. In the meantime Champlain did not remain idle, for he resolved to find the means of making a voyage to Spain in order "to acquire and cultivate acquaintance, and make a true report to His Majesty (Henry IV) of the particularities which could not be known to any Frenchmen, for the reason that they have not free access there." He left Blavet at the beginning of the month of August, and ten days after he arrived near Cape Finisterre.

  • THE JESUIT MISSION to CANADA and the FRENCH WARS of RELIGION, 1540-1635 Dissertation P
    “POOR SAVAGES AND CHURLISH HERETICS”: THE JESUIT MISSION TO CANADA AND THE FRENCH WARS OF RELIGION, 1540-1635 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Joseph R. Wachtel, M.A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Professor Alan Gallay, Adviser Professor Dale K. Van Kley Professor John L. Brooke Copyright by Joseph R. Wachtel 2013 Abstract My dissertation connects the Jesuit missions in Canada to the global Jesuit missionary project in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries by exploring the impact of French religious politics on the organizing of the first Canadian mission, established at Port Royal, Acadia, in 1611. After the Wars of Religion, Gallican Catholics blamed the Society for the violence between French Catholics and Protestants, portraying Jesuits as underhanded usurpers of royal authority in the name of the Pope—even accusing the priests of advocating regicide. As a result, both Port Royal’s settlers and its proprietor, Jean de Poutrincourt, never trusted the missionaries, and the mission collapsed within two years. After Virginia pirates destroyed Port Royal, Poutrincourt drew upon popular anti- Jesuit stereotypes to blame the Jesuits for conspiring with the English. Father Pierre Biard, one of the missionaries, responded with his 1616 Relation de la Nouvelle France, which described Port Royal’s Indians and narrated the Jesuits’ adventures in North America, but served primarily as a defense of their enterprise. Religio-political infighting profoundly influenced the interaction between Indians and Europeans in the earliest years of Canadian settlement.

ESelon Champlain, elle remontait aux années 1570, donc sensi- bleïnept à la même époque où les marchands français commencèrent à fréquenter la vallée du Saint-Laurent sur une base régulière pour la traite des fourrures 3. il semble d'ailleurs que le contrôle de l'axe straté­ gique formé par le Saint-Laurent ait été l'un des enjeux moteurs de ce conflit, les Iroquois cherchant probablement à s'implanter dans cette région pour avoir un contact direct avec les marchands européens. Au début du XVIIe siècle, la préférence des Français pour l'alliance Çlvec les Algonquins et les Montagnais s'imposait comme un choix logi­ que: ces deux nations avaient de nombreux contacts commerciaux avec les nations amérindiennes du nord et elles étaient alliées aux Hu­ rons de la baie Georgienne, dont le réseau commercial étendait ses ra­ mifications à un large secteur des Grands Lacs. C'est Champlain qui, le premier, donna une forme concrète à cette préférence en participant à 54 des raids contre les Iroquois aux côtés des Algonquins, des Montagnais 4 et des Hurons. il le fit à trois reprises, en 1609, 1610 et 1615 • Les historiens ont longtemps cru que ces actions militaires avaient transformé les Iroquois en «ennemis irréductibles 5» de la colonie fran­ çaise et engagé la Nouvelle-France dans une guerre longue, cruelle et meurtrière.

SLAWSON During the ante-bellum period and the era of Reconstruction, the religious life of black Christians in New Orleans cast in sharp relief the general experience of their urban counterparts throughout the South, namely, the tendency toward separate Protestant churches for blacks versus the nearly universal practice of integration in Catholic ones. New Orleans highlights this contrast because there the demography of black denominationalism was reversed. In the South, the majority of black Christians, slave and free, belonged to the various Protestant denominations; only a handful belonged to the Catholic body. In the Crescent City, however, the majority of blacks were Catholics, while the minority were Protestants. Black Catholics in New Orleans at- tended racially mixed churches down through the first decade of the twentieth century.
