Q1: Spaniards in Texas, therefore, struggled to establish a presence among multiple native
groups who had no need for mission salvation or welfare, no fear of Spanish military force, and
no patience for the lack of Spanish markets or trade fairs (especially in comparison with those
offered by Frenchmen in Louisiana and by Spaniards in New Mexico). The primary power
relations were not European versus Indian, but relations among native peoples. (Intro, Peace
Came in the Form of Woman)
Barr divides her book into THREE parts that take us chronologically through Texas in the 17th
and 18th centuries. Using ONE example from EACH part, how did Spanish/French and native
groups navigate relations with one another in each of these periods? How did gender roles
influence the exercise of diplomacy and conflict?
