Paperback. Condizione: New. Before the Davie Crockets, the Daniel Boones and Jim Bridgers, the French had pushed far west and north establishing trade and kin networks across the continent. They founded settlements that would become great cities such as Detroit, Saint Louis, and New Orleans, but their history has been largely buried or relegated to local lore or confined to Quebec. In this seminal work, Foxcurran, Bouchard, and Malette Scrutinize primary sources and uncover the alliances, organic links and métissage, or mixing, between early French settlers and voyageurs and the indigenous nations. It began with the founding of New France by Samuel de Champlain in the early 1600s and continued well into the 19th century long after France was no longer a force in North America. The authors' keen and accessible story telling, combined with vintage maps, forgotten documents (such as the little known writings of Alexis de Tocqueville), and old photos or paintings propel the account of the peoples engendered and still thriving, their French lingua franca, and their ways of life back into the heart of the narrative of North American history where they belong. Songs Upon the Rivers also challenges historical orthodoxies regarding the Canadien Métis. These descendants of the French with mixed ancestry developed a hybrid culture with close kinship ties with indigenous peoples across the continent. They kept their French songs and language, which effectively made French the lingua franca of the American and Canadian West well into the 19th century.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Les francophones du Canada furent les premiers Euro-Américains à explorer et à s'installer durablement dans la majeure partie du territoire qui allait devenir le Pacifique nord-ouest. De ce fait, ils ont peu à peu disparu du récit national moderne du Canada. Parallèlement, ils ne furent jamais réintégrés dans l'historiographie des États-Unis, où on les considérait comme des intrus étrangers dans une histoire supposément américaine, vouée à s'effacer avec le déclin du commerce des fourrures et la fixation de la frontière internationale entre les deux pays.En réalité, ils avaient entre-temps tissé des liens familiaux avec une proportion importante des Premières Nations situées entre les Appalaches, telles que les Iroquois, Abénaquis, Delaware et Shawnee, et le Pacifique, y compris dans le tiers nord de la Californie, les Chinooks, les Salish de la côte et les Têtes-Plates. Aujourd'hui, une grande partie de leurs descendants s'identifie comme membres de ces nations autochtones, qu'ils se reconnaissent ou non également comme Métis.Selon les régions gagnées par l'expansion américaine, ce processus prit des formes variées. La question de l'Orégon offre un aperçu de la dernière phase de cette histoire : celle du Pacifique nord-ouest.Tout comme dans d'autres régions plus à l'est, la majorité des premiers colons sédentaires de la région du nord-ouest du Pacifique, vivant des deux côtés du 49e parallèle, se définissaient eux-mêmes comme ¿Canadiens¿. Ils pouvaient être employés par diverses compagnies ou diriger leurs propres entreprises, comme des compagnies de transport fluvial où ils étaient bateliers, par exemple. Ils agirent comme forgerons, commerçants, aux scieries, à l'exploration, en meunerie, comme trappeur, en agriculture et à l'élevage, et finalement, au sein d'entreprises indépendantes, ils participaient à la chasse et à la traite des fourrures. À cette époque, tous les Canadiens parlaient français et étaient de confession catholique. Même les Écossais, leurs patrons protestants, devaient parler français pour se faire comprendre.Ce livre offre aux intéressés une page peu connue de l'histoire du Canada et des États-Unis, celle où le français était la seule langue de travail de la région et était aussi parlé à la maison avec les langues autochtones locales et le jargon commercial : le Chinook. …
