Résumé
"Histoire du Canada depuis sa découverte jusqu'à nos jours. Tome II" by F.-X. Garneau is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The book details the history of Canada from its discovery through various significant events leading up to the time of its writing. This volume specifically begins to chronicle the development and struggles of English colonies in contrast to Canadian society, emphasizing political and religious persecutions that played crucial roles in the formation of these colonies. The opening of this work introduces the English colonies established in North America, focusing on the intertwined histories of Canada and its English counterparts. It highlights the challenges faced by these colonies, particularly during the late 17th century, including the effects of religious intolerance in England that spurred emigration. It discusses the growing populations and trade practices in the English colonies against the backdrop of conflicts with Indigenous populations and French colonization efforts. The narrative outlines major settlements, social dynamics, governance structures, and the differing motivations of the early settlers, setting the stage for the eventual geopolitical tensions that would arise between the English and French colonies.
