Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the history of the Seigniorial Tenure in Lower Canada, a unique landholding system granting vast tracts of land to individuals known as Seigniors during the French colonial period. The author meticulously examines original land titles and decrees to present a detailed analysis of the system's evolution and its impact on landownership in the region. Through a close reading of these documents, the author challenges traditional interpretations of the Seigniorial Tenure, arguing that Seigniors were not mere trustees bound to concede land at low rents but were in fact proprietors with extensive rights over their domains. This book sheds new light on the complex relationship between landownership, power, and society in early Canada and offers a fresh perspective on the historical development of property rights in North America.

In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
