The last imperial war in colonial North America (1754–1763) intensified the French and British battle for American Indian souls. Mid-eighteenth-century French Jesuits established an approach to missionary linguistics that was the opposite of the English. In François Picquet’s Mohawk mission and Pierre Maillard’s Mi’kmaq mission, linguistic knowledge became a medium of authority and military control. Knowledge of indigenous words and symbols secured native allegiance to France and established an indigenous Catholicism as a lasting mark of France’s imperial presence in the New World. |
