Le Monde Amérindien Au Miroir Des 'Lettres Édifiantes Et Curieuses'

En savoir plus sur le livre

The book delves into the rich social and cultural tapestry of the New World as depicted in the Jesuit missionaries' letters from 1702 to 1776. It examines how these writings aimed to bolster faith, secure royal support, and counter criticisms of the Jesuit order. Adrien Paschoud's thematic and rhetorical analysis highlights the Jesuits' attempts to understand and convey their experiences within an exotic culture. He also addresses the letters' reception in 18th-century France, exploring the interplay between knowledge, power, and the representation of the 'Other' amidst rising secularism.
