Conférence de Eric Thierry - "Samuel de Champlain à Brouage (1580-1630)

Descriptif

Samuel de Champlain's pious and assertive wife, Hélène Boullé. Married as a child to Samuel de Champlain, Hélène Boullé was quick to rebel. The harshness of her stay in New France reveals her to herself.

Now a widow, she handled life's trials with nobility, before devoting herself fully to her long-held faith.
