Abstract

Le marché des matières premières n’a jusqu’alors pas fait l’objet d’une réflexion approfondie de la part des historiens et des archéologues, alors que ces produits jouaient un rôle important dans l’économie des sociétés anciennes. Surtout, l’étude comparative des conditions de circulation et des modalités d’échange, nécessaire pour mieux cerner les modes sociaux d’organisation des marchés, n’a jamais été entreprise à l’échelle du bassin méditerranéen et pour une ample séquence chronologique, de l’Antiquité romaine au Moyen Âge tardif. C’est une telle étude qu’ambitionne de réaliser le volume. Il considère les lieux d’échange et de stockage, la circulation des matières premières (produits naturels bruts : pierres et roches décoratives, terres, laine, bois, argile, etc., ou produits issus d’une première phase de traitement : alun, métaux, terres cuites architecturales, etc.) et les acteurs des échanges.

Abstract

Indira Gandhi, Golda Meir, and Margaret Thatcher were all described at various times as the "only man" in their respective cabinets - a reference to their tough, controlling behaviour. What explains this type of leadership style? In Women in Power, Blema Steinberg describes the role that personality traits played in shaping the ways in which these three women governed. For each of her subjects, Steinberg provides a personality profile based on biographical information, an analysis of the patterns that comprise the personality profile using psychodynamic insights, and an examination of the relationship between personality and leadership style through an exploration of various aspects of political life - motivation, relations with the cabinet, the caucus, the opposition, the media, and the public. By bringing together some of the best work in psychological leadership studies and conventional personality assessments, Women in Power makes a significant contribution to the study of political leadership and the advancement of personality-in-leadership modelling.

Abstract

The meaning that people attribute to things necessarily derives from human transactions and motivations, particularly from how those things are used and circulated. The contributors to this volume examine how things are sold and traded in a variety of social and cultural settings, both present and past. Focusing on culturally defined aspects of exchange and socially regulated processes of circulation, the essays illuminate the ways in which people find value in things and things give value to social relations. By looking at things as if they lead social lives, the authors provide a new way to understand how value is externalized and sought after. They discuss a wide range of goods - from oriental carpets to human relics - to reveal both that the underlying logic of everyday economic life is not so far removed from that which explains the circulation of exotica, and that the distinction between contemporary economics and simpler, more distant ones is less obvious than has been thought. As the editor argues in his introduction, beneath the seeming infinitude of human wants, and the apparent multiplicity of material forms, there in fact lie complex, but specific, social and political mechanisms that regulate taste, trade, and desire. Containing contributions from American and British social anthropologists and historians, the volume bridges the disciplines of social history, cultural anthropology, and economics, and marks a major step in our understanding of the cultural basis of economic life and the sociology of culture. It will appeal to anthropologists, social historians, economists, archaeologists, and historians of art.

Abstract

Of the 10,000 Indians forced across the Mississippi into eastern Kansas before the middle of the 19th century, a few have managed to walk the thin line between resistance to white culture and absorption into it. Herring, an archivist with the National Archive and Records Administration, tells the story of those who are still Indians, and still in Kansas.

Abstract

Les textes ne naissent pas tout armés dans leur indépassable perfection, mais sont le produit d’une genèse. À preuve l’abondance des fonds manuscrits du XIXe et du XXe siècle, dont l’exploitation a permis le développement de la critique génétique. Peut-on élargir le champ de celle-ci et généraliser sa méthodologie et ses concepts en franchissant la frontière chronologique du XIXe siècle ? Ce volume entreprend une première exploration sur quelques cas singuliers du XVIIe et du XVIIIe siècle. Le XVIIe siècle voit naître la littérature au sens moderne du terme. Et c’est au XVIIIe siècle que s’élaborent progressivement les notions juridiques d’auteur et de propriété intellectuelle d’un objet immatériel qui est le texte. De fait, certains dossiers manuscrits de ces époques charnières apparaissent au généticien comme familiers. Mais des éléments hétérogènes viennent troubler la netteté de cette première image : rareté des documents génétiques conservés, abondance des florilèges et des compilations, porosité de la frontière entre manuscrit et imprimé, écriture à plusieurs mains relevant d’un contexte de sociabilité sans équivalent pour l’époque moderne. Cette tension entre l’ « ancien » et le « contemporain » dont le XVIIe et le XVIIIe siècle portent témoignage nous rappelle que la genèse des œuvres doit être appréhendée dans la longue durée. Beau défi pour la critique génétique !

Abstract

Paulson retrieves an aesthetics that had strong support during the eighteenth century but has been obscured both by the more dominant academic discourse of Shaftesbury (and later Sir Joshua Reynolds) and by current trends in art and literary history. Arguing that the two traditions comprised not only painterly but also literary theory and practice, Paulson explores the innovations of Henry Fielding, John Cleland, Laurence Sterne, and Oliver Goldsmith, which followed and complemented the practice in the visual arts of Hogarth and his followers. In The Beautiful, Novel, and Strange Ronald Paulson fills a lacuna in studies of aesthetics at its point of origin in England in the 1700s. He shows how aesthetics took off not only from British empiricism but also from such forms of religious heterodoxy as deism. The third earl of Shaftesbury, the founder of aesthetics, replaced the Christian God of rewards and punishments with beauty - worship of God, with a taste for a work of art. William Hogarth, reacting against Shaftesbury's "disinterestedness," replaced his Platonic abstractions with an aesthetics centered on the human body, gendered female, and based on an epistemology of curiosity, pursuit, and seduction. Paulson shows Hogarth creating, first in practice and then in theory, a middle area between the Beautiful and the Sublime by adapting Joseph Addison's category (in the Spectator) of the Novel, Uncommon, and Strange.
