Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book traces the first 50 years of the Ursuline Convent in Quebec, from its founding in 1639 amidst the hardships of early colonial life through the trials and triumphs of its first half-century. The author draws upon the writings of Mother Marie Guyart of the Incarnation, the conven…t's founder, and other primary sources to chronicle the Ursulines' efforts to establish a school for the education of Indigenous girls, their charitable work among the colonists, and their role in the broader context of 17th-century French colonial society. The book offers a rich and nuanced account of the complex relationship between the Ursulines and the Indigenous peoples they sought to serve, exploring the challenges and rewards of intercultural exchange and the ways in which the convent became a vital part of both Indigenous and colonial communities. Through its examination of the Ursulines' experiences, the book ultimately sheds light on the broader themes of religious mission, cultural encounter, and the role of women in shaping the social and cultural landscape of early North America.
