Editor’s note: This forum originated as one of the colloquy series organized and moderated by Dennis Moore of Florida State University for the biennial conferences of the Society of Early Americanists. The colloquy on Cristobal Silva’s book was planned in conjunction with the editors of the William and Mary Quarterly and was held at the most recent SEA in Savannah, Georgia, in February 2013. Essays based on these presentations, and Silva’s response to them, inspired the second round of comments.
