Abstract
PERFORMED in London throughout the spring of 1704, John Dennis’s Liberty Asserted is based on events that occurred in Canada half a decade earlier during King Williams War.1 This note identifies an unnoted source for this new world drama’s dramatis personae, indexing, in the process, the international roots of the play’s nationalist vision and the curious cosmopolitanism of early eighteenth-century English drama. Significant English and Anglo-American literary studies scholarship on Liberty Asserted has appeared over the last half century. Scholars, though, have yet to observe that Dennis found two of his prominent characters’ names in a French travelogue published in London in 1703. The two names, Sakia and Okima, come from an Algonquin dictionary, which Louis Armand Baron de Lahontan appended to the first volume of New Voyages to North America.2 Sakia, according to Lahontan, means ‘Love’, and Okima means ‘leader or captain’ in Algonquin (New Voyages, 274). While Dennis does not appear to have disclosed this name information, he provides a hint. He introduces his preface with the point, ‘I thought fit to premise for the sake of those who have never read either Hennepin or Lahontan’ (Select Writings, II, 94). Dennis also records his change of Agnie, a French word for Mohawk (according to Lahontan), to Angie, ‘for the sake of better sound’. His prefatory comments do not identify the playwright’s source for his character names nor do they explain his decision to use these words for those names. They do, however, indicate a reason for Dennis’s decision: he sought to create accuracy but not at the expense of fostering English civic investment.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
