The Agency of Empire: Connections and Strategies in French Overseas Expansion (1686-1746): European Expansion and Indigenous Response, cartea 32
Autor Elisabeth Heijmansen Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 noi 2019
Through the cases of companies operating in Pondicherry (Coromandel Coast) and Ouidah (Bight of Benin), Elisabeth Heijmans demonstrates the participation of actors not only in Paris but also in provinces, ports and trading posts in the French expansion. The analysis brings to the fore connections across imperial, cultural and religious boundaries in order to diverge from traditional national narratives of the French early modern empire.
