| Summary | "Histoire du Canada depuis sa découverte jusqu'à nos jours. Tome I" by F.-X. Garneau is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This work provides a detailed examination of Canadian history from its discovery to Garneau's contemporary time, focusing on the complex interplay between different cultures, colonization, and the evolving political landscape. The author aims to document the foundations of Canadian society, highlighting significant events and figures in its history. The opening of the work begins with insights into the historiographic landscape surrounding Canada, critiquing earlier accounts for their lack of depth and reliance on travelers' narratives rather than solid historical evidence. Garneau reflects on the scarcity of thorough historical literature about Canada before his time, noting the significant contributions of early Jesuit historians like Charlevoix while critiquing their religious bias. He establishes his intent to create a more comprehensive and analytical history of Canada, which will encompass not just the territory itself but also its colonial relationships and socio-political developments, ultimately preparing the reader for an extensive chronological exploration of Canadian history.
