In The Agency of Empire: Connections and Strategies in French Expansion (1686-1746) Elisabeth Heijmans places directors and their connections at the centre of the developments and operations of French overseas companies. The focus on directors’ decisions and networks challenges the conception of French overseas companies as highly centralized and controlled by the state. Through the cases of companies operating in Pondicherry (Coromandel Coast) and Ouidah (Bight of Benin), Elisabeth Heijmans demonstrates the participation of actors not only in Paris but also in provinces, ports and trading posts in the French expansion. The analysis brings to the fore connections across imperial, cultural and religious boundaries in order to diverge from traditional national narratives of the French early modern empire.

Une histoire de la nouvelle-FranceFrançais et Amérindiens au XVIe siècleEn 1534, Jacques Cartier entreprend une série de trois voyages d'exploration et de colonisation au Canada. À sa suite, les Français investissent dans la pêche à la morue et commercent avec les populations autochtones : ils troquent des chaudrons de cuivre, des haches, des couteaux ou de simples perles de verre contre de précieuses peaux de castor, de loutre et de martre. Avant de pouvoir se parler, Français et Amérindiens échangent des biens qui ont pour eux le charme de la nouveauté et de l'exotisme.C'est en retraçant la circulation de ces objets que Laurier Turgeon, historien et ethnologue, nous fait découvrir l'histoire des premiers contacts franco-amérindiens. En nous racontant la pêche à la morue, le commerce des fourrures ou l'usage du cuivre et de la verroterie en Amérique du Nord, il nous offre un récit entièrement renouvelé de la naissance de la Nouvelle-France. D'une grande originalité, ce livre repose sur un vaste ensemble de sources - imprimées, manuscrites et archéologiques - largement inédites.

The field of ancient Greek ethics is increasingly emerging as a major branch of philosophical enquiry, and students and scholars of ancient philosophy will find this Companion to be a rich and invaluable guide to the themes and movements which characterised the discipline from the Pre-Socratics to the Neo-Platonists. Several chapters are dedicated to the central figures of Plato and Aristotle, and others explore the ethical thought of the Stoics, the Epicureans, the Skeptics, and Plotinus. Further chapters examine important themes that cut across these schools, including virtue and happiness, friendship, elitism, impartiality, and the relationship between ancient eudaimonism and modern morality. Written by leading scholars and drawing on cutting-edge research to illuminate the questions of ancient ethics, the book will provide students and specialists with an indispensable critical overview of the full range of ancient Greek ethics.

En 1626, une première compagnie par actions est formée à l’initiative de Richelieu pour mener la colonisation des Petites Antilles et organiser le trafic transatlantique. Elle repose sur les associés, des proches du cardinal, qui en possèdent le capital et en assurent la direction. En 1635, elle est réorganisée afin de pouvoir satisfaire d’une façon plus efficace les objectifs qui lui ont été fixés par la monarchie, à savoir, conquérir et peupler des terres et favoriser le commerce. Elle prend alors le nom de Compagnie des îles de l’Amérique. Sous sa conduite, les Français déjà établis à Saint-Christophe s’installent à la Guadeloupe et à la Martinique et affichent des prétentions sur la Grenade, Sainte-Croix, Saint- Martin et Saint-Barthélemy. Plusieurs milliers de colons tentent l’aventure en franchissant l’océan à la quête d’un meilleur avenir et de richesses. Les terres sont exploitées pour satisfaire les besoins de la métropole. Quelques grands domaines s’appuyant sur une main-d’œuvre constituée d’esclaves africains développent de nouvelles productions comme le sucre et l’indigo. Mais la Compagnie est bientôt confrontée à de multiples difficultés qui remettent en cause son fonctionnement et ses finalités. Les tensions dans les îles et les faibles retombées de sa politique économique conduisent les associés à cesser progressivement leurs activités à partir de 1649. Sa fin pourtant ne signifie pas l’échec de la colonisation française des Petites Antilles. L’héritage qu’elle lègue va fructifier durant les décennies suivantes et donner naissance au premier empire colonial français.

This two-volume set is devoted to questions of identity and modernity in France and in the French-speaking areas of North and West Africa, the Middle East, the Caribbean, Vietnam, and the Indian Ocean. A variety of scholars address issues of language and nationalism, displacement, exile, and transculturation resulting from the legacy of colonialism. This project is the first to combine theoretically sophisticated literary/interpretive models with historical, sociological, and linguistic approaches.
