S'il est désormais établi que le legs textuel des rencontres coloniales en révèle autant sur les observateurs que sur ce qu'ils observent, le passage de l'acte d'observation à l'acte d'écriture et le devenir des documents produits n'ont pas reçu l'attention qu'ils méritent. C'est ce que proposent les auteurs des neufs études composant cet ouvrage, qui reviennent aux sources archivistiques du discours colonial : les inscriptions d'expression française sur l'Amérique, entre le milieu du XVIIe et la fin du XVIIIe. Cette période peut être considérée comme un laboratoire des représentations françaises de l'Amérique, au moment où s'accélère le projet de découverte et de domination politique et symbolique de la Nouvelle-France, puis des Antilles. Dans les contradictions des textes, dans les brèches du récit colonial, se met progressivement en place un système de représentation plus mouvant et évolutif que le savoir dominé par les volontés institutionnelles, normatives, communautaires. Les auteurs analysent ici les contingences et les imprévus de l'expérience américaine des colonisateurs et de l'écriture de l'Amérique dans ses différentes inscriptions : écrits, cartes, gravures. En étudiant les divers accidents liés au déplacement des textes (pertes, formatage, réécriture, réception), les auteurs montrent comment la sphère de la circulation devient lieu de création du savoir. L'inscription de l'observation consiste à transcrire mais surtout à transformer l'expérience existentielle américaine des observateurs en un événement exemplaire. Elle contribue à constituer une mémoire et un savoir qui prétendent retenir la réalité vécue et la transmettre à des publics différents. Les auteurs de ce volume envisagent ainsi l'inscription comme un phénomène d'intégration. Comment l'Amérique devient-elle partie du monde connu des Européens ? Et, réciproquement, comment l'assimilation de l'Amérique redessine-t-elle les contours de la conscience de soi des observateurs européens ? Tels sont les enjeux de ce livre, qui renouvelle l'approche du discours colonial sur l'Amérique au XVIIIe siècle.

Enlightenment writers, revolutionaries, and even Napoleon discussed and wrote about France's tiny Jewish population at great length. Why was there so much thinking about Jews when they were a minority of less than one percent and had little economic and virtually no political power? In this unusually wide-ranging study of representations of Jews in eighteenth-century France-both by Gentiles and Jews themselves-Ronald Schechter offers fresh perspectives on the Enlightenment and French Revolution, on Jewish history, and on the nature of racism and intolerance. Informed by the latest historical scholarship and by the insights of cultural theory, Obstinate Hebrews is a fascinating tale of cultural appropriation cast in the light of modern society's preoccupation with the "other." Schechter argues that the French paid attention to the Jews because thinking about the Jews helped them reflect on general issues of the day. These included the role of tradition in religion, the perfectibility of human nature, national identity, and the nature of citizenship. In a conclusion comparing and contrasting the "Jewish question" in France with discourses about women, blacks, and Native Americans, Schechter provocatively widens his inquiry, calling for a more historically precise approach to these important questions of difference.
