Abstract
Author(s): Vitkus, Daniel | Abstract: Focusing on European colonial rivalry in Florida during the 1560s, including the massacre of French Huguenots there by Spanish forces, the article argues that our understanding of these events and of the texts that record the brief life of Fort Caroline should be situated within a broader network of imperial rivalry and religious conflict that connects Florida to Europe. It looks closely at two first-hand accounts—by Rene Goulaine de Laudonniere and by Nicolas Challeux.
