Studies devoted to it have so far focused on its invention. This article takes the opposite of these approaches and offers a reflection on two centuries of usage of this writing. The documentary sources are first reviewed. It is then shown that Mi’kmaw writing has always been an attached writing: it was intended to transcribe a small corpus of texts from the Catholic tradition that had to be used, in the context of a specific institution, to learn by heart and recite liturgical discourses.</em>}, number={1}, journal={Acadiensis}, author={Déléage, Pierre}, year={2013}, month={Apr.} }
