This loss resonated with the French, who had dealt with smaller epidemics in France and were also mourning their absent communities through a nostalgia for home. Blum traces how ghosts provided transgenerational and transcultural links that guided understanding rather than encouraging violence. Ghost Brothers insightfully examines the process of this colonial interdependent alliance between Native and European worlds.AcculturationCanadaHistory17th centuryFrench-CanadiansSocial conditions17th centuryIndians of North AmericaFirst contact with other peoplesIndians of North AmericaForeign influencesSpiritualismCanadaHistoryCanadaHistoryTo 1763 (New France)CanadaSocial conditionsTo 1763AcculturationHistoryFrench-CanadiansSocial conditionsIndians of North AmericaFirst contact with other peoples.Indians of North AmericaForeign influences.SpiritualismHistory.971.01/6Blum Rony1820234MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910971336603321Ghost brothers4382067UNINA
