"En 1675, en pleine guerre de Hollande, la France de Louis XIV est frappée par une des principales secousses rebellionnaires de l'Ancien Régime, restée célèbre sous le nom de « révolte du papier timbré ». De Bordeaux à Quimper, un front intérieur surgit, mais c'est en fait toute une partie de la France qui bruit et conteste, de Toulouse à Besançon et de Grenoble à Paris. À la cour, l'inquiétude est réelle car l'éclat de la récente conquête de la Franche-Comté ne peut masquer les difficultés militaires que la mort de Turenne vient symboliser au cœur de l'été. Dans le même temps, la crainte d'un débarquement hollandais sur la côte Atlantique, susceptible de menacer Rochefort et Brest, oblige les autorités à agir avec fermeté et souplesse, particulièrement en Basse-Bretagne où émerge une nouvelle « guerre paysanne » : la « révolte des Bonnets rouges ». Grâce à l'utilisation d'archives peu connues jusque-là, il est aujourd'hui possible de revenir sur cette grande crise politique, et de tenter de comprendre comment une modeste émeute bordelaise contre la taxe sur la vaisselle d'étain est devenue une des plus grandes révoltes antifiscales de l'Ancien Régime, et, au-delà, un élément phare de la mémoire et de l'identité bretonne. Il apparaît également possible de revenir sur le processus de sortie de crise, qui découvre un État-Louis XIV plus souple et plus pragmatique que l'image de brutalité unilatérale qui est souvent retenue. Des notaires bordelais aux paysans de Cornouaille, des magistrats du parlement de Rennes aux bateliers de la Garonne, des obscurs comploteurs aux ministres Louvois et Colbert, sans oublier espions, soldats et autres serviteurs du roi, cet essai d'histoire événementielle cherche à arracher cette crise à sa mémoire flamboyante, et, loin des images trop simples, entend essayer de la replacer dans le contexte français et européen."

Since the Mexican Revolution of 1910-1920, Mexico's rebellious peasant has become a subject not only of history but of literature, film, and paintings. With his sombrero, his machete, and his rifle, he marches or rides through countless Hollywood or Mexican films, killing brutal overseers, hacienda owners, corrupt officials, and federal soldiers. Some of Mexico's greatest painters, such as Diego Rivera, have portrayed him as one of the motive forces of Mexican history. Was this in fact the case? Or are we dealing with a legend forged in the aftermath of the Revolution and applied to the Revolution itself and to earlier periods of Mexican history? This is one of the main questions discussed by the international group of scholars whose work is gathered in this volume. They address the subject of agrarian revolts in Mexico from the pre-Columbian period through the twentieth century. The volume offers a unique perspective not only on Mexican riots, rebellions, and revolutions through time but also on Mexican social movements in contrast to those in the rest of Latin America.The contributors to the volume are Ulises Beltran, Raymond Buve, John Coatsworth, Romana Falcon, John M. Hart, Evelyn Hu-DeHart, Friedrich Katz, William K. Meyers, Enrique Montalvo Ortega, Herbert J. Nickel, Leticia Reina, William Taylor, Hans Werner Tobler, John Tutino, Arturo Warman, and Eric Van Young.Originally published in 1988.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.

This book offers a comprehensive approach to the study of the political history of the Renaissance: its analysis of government is embedded in the context of geography and social conflict. Instead of the usual institutional history, it examines the Florentine state from the mountainous periphery - a periphery both of geography and class - where Florence met its most strenuous opposition to territorial incorporation. Yet, far from being acted upon, Florence's highlanders were instrumental in changing the attitudes of the Florentine ruling class: the city began to see its own self-interest as intertwined with that of its region and the welfare of its rural subjects at the beginning of the fifteenth century. Contemporaries either remained silent or purposely obscured the reasons for this change, which rested on widespread and successful peasant uprisings across the mountainous periphery of the Florentine state, hitherto unrecorded by historians.

La Jacquerie française de 1358 et la révolte des paysans anglais de 1381 ont durablement marqué les mémoires, révélant une aspiration manifeste dès le Moyen Âge : le désir de libération des masses populaires. Du Nord au Midi de l’Europe, la paysannerie s’est engagée dans des luttes ouvertes contre les pouvoirs en place, contre les princes et les seigneurs. Mais ces combats ont été parfois plus feutrés et la résistance à l’autorité s’est souvent exprimée par la voie de la justice ou de l’arbitrage. Comprendre les causes et les enjeux de ces résistances à l’autorité constitue un chantier historiographique en plein renouveau. Les pistes explorées dans cet ouvrage mettent en lumière le rôle sociopolitique de la noblesse, le poids des redevances seigneuriales, l’oppression des officiers locaux, l’essor de la fiscalité étatique, la genèse de l’État moderne et l’impact de la Réforme - permettant d’appréhender les mobilisations populaires dans leur diversité.
