  • Political Strength. Other Aspects and Circumstances, Such As the Iroquois Defeat by the French (1696-1701), the Decline of the F
    567 political strength. Other aspects and circumstances, such as the Iroquois defeat by the French (1696-1701), the decline of the fur trade, the population decline of the Iroquois simultaneous to the swell of the colonists’ numbers, and finally, the fissioning of the Confederacy after 1777, all lended to the decline of sovereignty and loss of diplomatic leverage. It was after all the seventeenth-century sovereignty of the Iroquois that initially bred the respect in this relationship, not vice-versa. Perhaps not unlike Thucydides then, Morito has overemphasized individual actions at the expense of greater historical forces. Even so, his middle two chapters have earned him a place in the forum of these discussions. Timothy D. Willig Indiana University South Bend MOTSCH, Andreas, and Grégoire HOLTZ — Éditer la Nouvelle-France. Quebec City: Presses de l’Université Laval, 2011. Pp. 256. Historians of pre-1760 Canada quote excerpts from such writers as Samuel de Champlain, Gabriel Sagard, Pierre-Esprit Radisson, or Joseph-François Lafitau as evidence to support a particular interpretation of the past. These writers were witnesses to some of the events they describe and that fact gives them authority. Historians are aware that partisanship, such as that created by the Franciscan-Jesuit rivalry, or the self-promotion of Jean-Louis Hennepin and Louis-Armand de Lahontan led to distortions and invented discoveries. Plagiarism, hearsay information, and invented dialogues with Amerindians – such as those in Chrestien Le Clercq’s book Nouvelle Relation de la Gaspésie – are common features of these early accounts. Human History and Natural History had not yet been separated from one another and so all that was curious and strange in North America’s plants and animals was reported along with observations on the customs and costumes of the native peoples.

  • Inhabiting New France: Bodies, Environment and the Sacred, C.1632-C.1700
    Inhabiting New France: Bodies, Environment and the Sacred, c.1632-c.1700 Robin Macdonald PhD University of York History September 2015 2 Abstract The historiography of colonial and ‘religious’ encounters in New France has tended to focus on encounters between human beings, between ‘colonisers’ and ‘colonised’ or ‘natives’ and ‘newcomers’. This thesis will focus on encounters between people and environment. Drawing on recent anthropology, notably the work of Tim Ingold, it will argue that whilst bodies shaped environment, environment also could shape bodies – and their associated religious practices. Through the examination of a broad variety of source materials – in particular, the Jesuit Relations – this thesis will explore the myriad ways in which the sacred was created and experienced between c.1632 and c.1700. Beginning with the ocean crossing to New France – an area largely unexplored in the historiographical literature – it will argue that right from the outset of a missionary’s journey, his or her practices were shaped by encounters with both humans and non-humans, by weather or the stormy Ocean Sea. Reciprocally, it will argue, missionary bodies and practices could shape these environments. Moving next to the mission terrain, it will analyse a variety spaces – both environmental and imaginary – tracing the slow build up of belief through habitual practices. Finally, it will chart the movement of missionaries and missionary correspondence from New France back to France. It was not only missionaries, it will argue, who could experience
