Soft cover. Condición: Fine. Revised Edition, Paperback Printing. Louis Riel believed that in 1875 he hadreceived a divine commission authorizing him to save the Metis and reform the Catholic Church. He was a prophet, inspired by the Holy Spirit, and the Metis were the new chosen people. A new branch of the Catholic Church would be founded in North America, with its first Holy See in Montreal and its second in Riel's birthplace of St Vital. When Riel expressed these views in 1876, he was committed to a lunatic asylum. After his release, he suppressed his ideas for several years, only to reveal them again to his metis followers during the North-West Rebellion. The Rebellion thus became as much a religious as a political movement; to the end of his life Riel believed himself a prophet, and he went to his death thinking that he, like Christ, would be resurrected on the third day . . .

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good+. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. First Edition; Second Printing. DJ shows very light shelf wear with 2 small tears on back top, lightly sun-faded on spine.; A bright, solid book. Dust jacket in Mylar jacket protector.; Large 8vo 9" - 10" tall; 216 pages; "Early writers about Louis Riel have noted his religious beliefs but have not taken them seriously. They have usually dismissed Riel's attempt to found a new religion as the symptom of a deranged mind. Thomas Flanagan takes Riel's religion seriously and analyses it using categories developed in the literature about millenarian movements. He shows that Riel's religion, far from being simply individual madness, is typical of the nativistic and millenarian movements described by one author as the 'religions of the oppressed.'This is also a biography, tracing Riel's thinking on religious subjects from his childhood to the end of his life and paying particular attention to events in his life that influenced his thinking. This developmental approach is necessary because Riel's ideas changed frequently; he never arrived at a fixed 'system.'The research is based on primary sources throughout. Much new documentation has become available over the past thirty years. Flanagan also re-interprets well-known documents. While this revised edition does not alter the fundamentals of his interpretation, it improves the historical backdrop against which it is presented through use of a wealth of new primary sources. Flanagan has updated his citings of Riel's manuscripts to current sources.". …

Louis David Riel was a Canadian politician, a founder of the province of Manitoba, and leader of the Métis people of the Canadian prairies. He led two resistance movements (Red River Rebellion of 1869-1870 and the North-West Rebellion of 1885. It ended in his arrest, trial, and execution on a charge of high treason) against the Canadian government and its first post-Confederation Prime Minister, Sir John A. Macdonald.
