Abstract

This resource is about the most sweeping reform in the history of the French monarchy: the creation of assemblies at all levels of administration. The resistance of lords and office holders exposed their hereditary power over commoners, who sought to throw off their subordination when the crisis of the monarchy offered the opportunity in 1789.

Abstract

This is the first biography of one of the wealthiest and most influential bishops of medieval Europe, who for a period of over thirty years exercised a degree of power over the Plantagenet court second only to that of the king. The career of Peter des Roches and the activities of his fellow aliens are fundamental to an understanding of the process by which England and France developed as two separate kingdoms. As a politician, des Roches cast a shadow across the reigns of both John and Henry III. His biography encompasses the first detailed narrative yet attempted of English political history in the early 1230s and of the civil war of 1233-4. It sheds new light on such issues as the role of aliens in English politics, the reception of Magna Carta, the loss of Normandy, and the constitutional and administrative developments of the reign of Henry III.

Abstract

This important volume presents the first comprehensive history of early modern La Rochelle, a port town whose fractious residents became embroiled in the French Reformations. Opening chapters situate the Rochelais within the geopolitics of an oceanic frontier, where urbanites created a strong, heavily armed civic government, in part because they perceived themselves as isolated civilizing agents surrounded by the savage inhabitants of a lawless environment. Analysis of the city's Reformation proceeds within this context of place and politics, showing how various ranks of the citizenry idiosyncratically adopted the tenets of Calvinism, amalgamating these salvific doctrines with traditional civic rites and values - to the consternation of more orthodox pastors. Juxtaposing serial sources from multiple archives, Robbins shows with innovative detail how local political and religious struggles intermeshed, setting the city and its Reformed congregations on a fatal collision course with the Bourbon monarchy. Concluding chapters examine how great aristocratic families, churchmen, and Catholic magistrates joined in a local Counter-Reformation, remaking urban power politics from the ground up.

Abstract

Consacré à l'architecture des bibliothèques contemporaines, cet ouvrage retrace le parcours historique des modèles d'organisation d'espaces dédiés à la conservation de la mémoire écrite ; il s'interroge sur les schémas actuels de fonctionnement d'une institution vieille de plus de deux mille ans et pourtant en perpétuelle évolution. Partant des premiers rouleaux cachés dans les niches des temples, Aldo De Poli analyse les origines lointaines de l'édifice "bibliothèque". Du Moyen Age à la Renaissance, il nous fait découvrir ces espaces, toujours plus identifiables et mieux conçus, destinés à devenir au fil du temps des institutions ouvertes au public. Il poursuit par l'étude de la bibliothèque comme thème d'architecture civile, quand elle devient une entité autonome avec des caractéristiques architecturales propres et codifiables. Avec le XIXe siècle qui favorise le développement des bibliothèques "nationales", on assiste à la réalisation d'architectures toujours plus complexes, composées de parties différenciées, mais étroitement liées, chacune bénéficiant de nouveautés techniques et spatiales. Les expériences du XXe siècle offrent de précieux repères pour l'histoire de l'architecture moderne : il ne s'agit plus seulement de témoigner de traditions, mais d'exprimer, à travers des propositions singulières, une recherche ouverte ou une poétique d'auteur aisément repérable. Abandonnant le modèle de l'édifice compact, les bibliothèques voient se spécialiser leurs espaces (lecture, consultation, stockage, administration). Les aspects fonctionnels prenant souvent le pas sur les aspects formels et décoratifs, certaines réalisations rappellent des bâtiments de type industriel. Cependant, après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, le respect de l'identité du lieu, du milieu naturel et de la tradition historique s'affirme. A travers de surprenantes inventions d'œuvres d'art total, c'est toute une nouvelle conception de la monumentalité urbaine qui s'exprime.
