Title
The Spice of Popery : Converging Christianities on an Early American Frontier
Description
Exploration of Maine's religious culture and various religious identities in the 17th and early 18th centuries. A study of religious eclecticism in the New England/New France borderland that complicates conventional notions of Christian orthodoxy, or of various Protestant and Catholic peoples and ways of living, in a corner of North America during the Colonial Period. The region's interactions between European Protestant settlers, Wabanaki, and French Catholics; the interplay of their various powers and religious varieties; the birth of hybrid borderland cultures; the solidification of religious identities. Particular emphasis on Catholic/Protestant conflicts in this time period and region. Illustrated with maps, portraits, and black and white photographs. Based on the 2006 dissertation of a similar title.
