UCLA Faculty on Tour

Professor Sara Melzer
Department of European Languages & Transcultural Studies divider

Professor Sara E. Melzer, a faculty member for over 35 years, specialized in early modern France, having published four books and multiple articles on this period. Most recently, she has focused France’s colonial relationship with Canada, studying the reciprocal dynamic between colonizer and colonized. Her latest book centered on a “hidden” history in which the French church and state promoted interracial marriages between American Indians and the French. Although this history was “hidden” in France, it was well-known in Canada. She explores how this colonial policy impacted both France and Canada. Her research has been supported by the American Council of Learned Societies, the National Endowment for the Humanities, and the UCLA Academic Senate. She has traveled widely in France and Canada.
