Traditional scholarship on post-Roman western culture has tended to examine the ethnic identities of Goths, Franks, and similar groups while neglecting the Romans themselves, in part because modern scholars have viewed the concept of being Roman as one denoting primarily a cultural or legal affiliation. As this book demonstrates, however, early medieval 'Romanness' also encompassed a sense of belonging to an ethnic group, which allowed Romans in Iberia and Gaul to adopt Gothic or Frankish identities in a more nuanced manner than has been previously acknowledged in the literature.

One of the most striking features of late medieval and early modern German was the countless feuds carried out by nobles. A constant threat to law and order, these feuds have commonly been regarded as a manifestation of the decline - economic and otherwise - of the nobility. This study shows that the nobility was not in crisis at this time. Nor were feuds merely banditry by another name. Rather, they were the result of an interplay between two fundamental processes: princely state-building, and social stratification among the nobility. Offering a new paradigm for understanding the German nobility, this book argues that the development of the state made proximity to princes the single most decisive factor in determining the fortune of a family. The result was a violent competition among the nobility over resources which were crucial to the princes. Feuds played a central role in this struggle that eventually led to the formation of an elite of noble families on whose power and wealth the princely state depended.

La construction de bâtiments réalisée en plastic reçoit aujourd'hui un attrait de plus en plus grand auprès des constructeurs et du public. Suite aux premières expériences des années 1940, le plastic est devenu courrant, principalement en raison de son côté transparent ou translucide. De grands architectes issus de l'actuelle avant-garde en ont un usage fréquent. Le présent ouvragde tente de démontrer que ce matériau "éphémère" est entré dans les habitudes constructives et fait partie de la liste des matériaux proposés actuellement en raison des possibilités esthétiques et techniques qu'il offre.
