Описание: Fort Niagara is located twelve miles downriver from the world-renowned Niagara Falls, yet few visitors to either site know this was once Iroquois territory and claimed by France. This volume summarizes the fascinating span of North American history when New France was established during the sixteenth century in present-day Canada, explored, and expanded to the Niagara River - a strategic water and portage route connected to the Great Lakes. Chronologically the authors dramatically trace how the Iroquois gained the Niagara River, and how they kept this lucrative trade route for themselves long after the French became established fur traders in the Great Lakes. The Iroquois continued to control the Niagara River as the French built the short-lived Forts Conti (1669), Denonville (1687/1688), and finally Fort Niagara (1726-1759). Fort Niagara: The Key to the Inland Oceans and the French Movement to Dominate North America incorporates actions and political changes elsewhere that influenced the French and Iroquois at Niagara, especially during the French and Indian War, which ended the French Occupation of Fort Niagara and set the stage for the Iroquois to lose their long-held Niagara River territory.

Описание: El presente libro cierra una serie de tres volumenes encaminados a profundizar en distintos aspectos de la narrativa espanola memorialista. Si bien en los dos primeros haciamos hincapie en los rasgos formales y tecnicas narrativas empleadas para abordar este asunto, este ultimo volumen se imprime desde una mayor dimension de analisis politico y moral. Cabe preguntarse, dada esta perspectiva, como puede la literatura influir en la realidad e incluso transformarla, o hasta donde pueden llegar el escritor y el critico mediante el ejercicio responsable de su profesion. Se trata sin duda de preguntas de dificil respuesta. En las paginas que contiene este volumen intentamos dar respuesta a esas preguntas a traves de una serie de articulos inclinados sobre temas como la memoria transnacional, memoria y etica, exilio y memoria o la memoria como un deber inalinable en aquellas sociedades con pasado conflictivo.
