Download or read book Harvest of Souls written by Carole Blackburn and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2004 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1632 Jesuit missionary Paul Le Jeune, newly arrived at the fort of Quebec, wrote the first of the Relations to his superior in Paris, initiating a series of biannual mission reports that came to be known as the Jesuit Relations. In Harvest of Souls Carole Blackburn presents a contemporary interpretation of the 1632-1650 Relations, arguing that they are colonizing texts in which the Jesuits use language, imagery, and forms of knowledge to legitimize relations of inequality with the Huron and Montagnais. By combining textual analysis with an ethnographic study of the Jesuits Blackburn is able to reveal the gap between the domineering language of the Relations and the limited authority that the Jesuits were able to exercise over Native people, who actively challenged much of what the Jesuits tried to do and say. She highlights the struggle between the Jesuits and Natives over the meaning of Christianity. The Jesuits' attempted to convey their Christian message through Native languages and cultural idioms. Blackburn shows that this resulted in the displacement of much of the content of the message and demonstrates that the Native people's acts of resistance took up and transformed aspects of the Jesuits' teachings in ways that subverted their authority.
Download or read book Musical Canada written by John Beckwith and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1988-12-15 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The foremost historian of Canadian music and musical life, Helmut Kallmann is the inspiration for this volume. Its twenty-three contributions, written by prominent composers and writers representing many different regions and both national languages, present a cross-section of current work in historical research, bibliography, analysis, criticism, and creative composition. Among the subjects covered are bibliographical and historian research on recent musical findings from New France and on early musical activities in various Canadian cities and regions; critical appraisals of Canadian composers and performers; and surveys of Canadian musical organizations and their programs. Four short compositions have been written especially for the volume. The title is drawn from two early Canadian musical periodicals, the English-language Musical Canada and the French-language Le Canada musical. As those journals did for their time, so this volume provides a contemporary overview of Canadian music and music scholarship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cette oeuvre classique présente de manière profonde et pieuse les mérites éminents de la fondatrice de l'Ordre de la Visitation-Sainte-Marie, une nouvelle histoire de sainte Jeanne de Chantal. Nous nous sommes attaché à la faire connattre surtout dans sa vie intime. Nous citons beaucoup ses lettres dont nous avons dll retoucher légerement quelques passages trop diffus. Sainte Chantal ne prévoyait pas qu'une grande parti e de sa correspondance serait conservée; ét, si elle l'ellt prévu, il est probable qu'elle n'aurait écrit que dans le cas de la plus stricte nécessité. Ses lettres sont simples, naives, écrites au courant de la plume, et disent tout son creur. Le seul moyen de la faire bien juger était donc d'en reproduire plusieurs en les rattachant aux circonstances qui les ont inspirées, c'est ce que nous avons fait. Nous pouvons avoir la consolation de faire ainsi mieux comprendre celle qui, sans y prétendre, sut se faire admirer, vénérer et chérir de tous ceux à qui il fut donné de la connaîttre pendant sa vie!

Download or read book Religion Society and Politics in France Since 1789 written by Frank Tallett and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1991-01-01 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been carefully planned to give a coherent account of the impact of religion in France over the last two hundred years. Most books in English dealing with the subject are now dated, and in any case concentrate on institutional questions of church-state relations rather than on the wider influence of religion throughout France. These essays summarise recent French research and provide a concise up-to-date introduction to the history of modern French Catholicism.
