This was the result of migrants of various kinds fl ooding into their area and of conflict exploding over resources in a time of political upheaval and drought. Missionaries of the London Missionary S ociety\, often recently arrived themselves and frequently ill-informed\, s ent back to their home societies long personal diaries as well as more off icial reports that referenced these processes. Such sources are among the few remaining written records from this time and place. What can these pap ers reveal about the complex dynamics of the period? How should we read th e papers of missionaries\, both inadvertent witnesses to violent transform ation and important participants?\n\nLight Refreshments Served.\n\n \n DTSTART:20251008T190000Z DTEND:20251008T210000Z LOCATION:Room 116\, Peterson Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0E6\, 3460 rue McTavish SUMMARY:IOWC Speaker Series: Elizabeth Elbourne URL:/history/channels/event/iowc-speaker-series-elizab eth-elbourne-367657 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
