Publié le mercredi 12 mai 2010

Résumé

The Catholic Church is a particularly valuable topic for pursuing an internationalized approach to the history of the United States. French Catholicism has played an important but largely neglected role in the history of the United States because so many of the sources are in French, and because of the dispersion of the archives on both sides of the Atlantic. The rich French sources on religious history found in American archives (including those at the University of Notre Dame) remain underexplored by scholars from either France or the United States. The goals of this colloquium include facilitating conversation among scholars studying the intersection of French and American Catholicism from colonial times through the twentieth century, and identifying fruitful areas for further research.
