Gli scritti dei missionari in Nouvelle-France: un cambiamento di paradigma
Keywords:
missionari, Contro-Riforma, letteratura Nouvelle-FranceAbstract
Grazie a una serie di recenti riletture, influenzate da un cambiamento di prospettiva che privilegia la relazione e l’interazione allo studio del singolo oggetto, i testi dei missionari cattolici in Canada possono essere considerati come testimonianza di un’esperienza coloniale ed umana che fu caratterizzata dal meticciato e dall’ibridazione e che modificò in maniera essenziale lo sviluppo della nostra civiltà.
The missionaries’ writings in Nouvelle-France: a paradigm shift
The texts of the Catholic missionaries in Canada are an extraordinary anthropological, historical, but above all literary testimony of the Europeans’ meeting with the otherness represented by the natives of the New World. The new readings, introduced in the essays devoted to the Nouvelle-France, allow us to consider this corpus as a testimony of a colonial and human experience that was characterized by miscegenation and hybridity and which fundamentally modified, in an essential way, the development of our civilization.
