Covering a period of 200 years and beginning in 1611, the works were written annually and appeared in print beginning in 1632.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOriginally written in French, Latin, and Italian, The Jesuit Relations were reports from Jesuit missionaries in the field that were sent to their superiors to update them as to the missionaries’ progress in the conversion of various Native American tribes. Constructed as narratives, the original reports of the Jesuit missionaries were subsequently transcribed and altered several times before their publication, first by the Jesuit overseer in New France and then by the Jesuit governing body in France. The Relations gradually became more focused on the general public as its readers, in terms of a marketing tool to procure new settlers for the colonies, while simultaneously trying to gain the capital to continue the missions in New France.\"--Wikipedia\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"VolumesOfValue","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47101249814768,"sku":"2940149429240","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940149429240_p0.jpg?v=1763716796","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940149429240","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
