Le Monde: The origins of the US: How the Puritan Pilgrim Fathers 'made their place in history'
Agnès Delahaye's book examines the myths surrounding America's founding, focusing on the Pilgrim Fathers, who sought religious freedom in the New World. Their journey was influenced by England's colonial ambitions, particularly in contrast to the Catholic Spanish empire.
The rivalry between England and Spain during the 16th-century wars of religion spurred England's colonial efforts. Figures like Richard Hakluyt advocated for Protestant colonization as a moral counter to Spanish conquests, promoting the idea of sending non-conformists to establish a new society.
