About this course

History Major Standing.This Study and Writing Course follows French Jesuit missionaries in their voyages around North America in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Our topic will be less the Jesuits themselves than the world they encountered--and wrote about, in great detail, in a set of sources known as the Jesuit Relations. The Relations tell us not just about Jesuits, but about the Indians they attempted to convert, about French and English colonial societies, and about the North American environment. Students will use these rich sources to conduct their own original research.
