Fulfilling the Name: Catherine Tekakwitha and Marguerite Kanenstenhawi (Eunice Williams)
2011
Overview
[...] while Catherine Tekakwitha was the subject of hagiographies, in the nineteenth century the minister's daughter became a model for \"cautionary\" fictional representations of white savages in nineteenth-century American fiction (Namias 97), including Faith, the younger sister of the heroine of Catherine Maria Sedgwick's Hope Leslie, and Ruth, in lames Fenimore Cooper's The Wept of Wishton-Wish. According to Greer, Catherine Tekakwitha's \"short life happens to be more fully and richly documented than that of any other indigenous person of North or South America in the colonial period,\" yet this documentation, produced by Cholenec and Chauchetière, is \"certainly not transparent\" (Mohawk Saint vii, viii).
