Abstract

In his grotto and garden concepts, Bernard Palissy (1510-1590) developed the veristic "style rustique". It reflects the upheavals that transformed Renaissance Europe, particularly in the fields of religion and science. Juliette Ferdinand addresses all of Palissy's areas of interest, including ceramics, garden art, and natural philosophy. She sheds light on his demand for a reform of science and religion that should be guided by a return to the origins of nature and scripture. Beyond the astonishment that their appearance still arouses in the viewer, it is the complexity and richness of an era that the "rustic figulines" testify to. In seinen Grotten und Gartenkonzepten entwickelte Bernard Palissy (1510-1590) den veristischen "style rustique". In ihm spiegeln sich die Umbrüche wider, die das Europa der Renaissance insbesondere in Religion und Wissenschaft grundlegend verändert haben. Juliette Ferdinand setzt sich mit allen Interessensgebieten von Palissy auseinander, darunter Keramik, Gartenkunst und Naturphilosophie. Sie beleuchtet seine Forderung nach einer Reform von Wissenschaft und Religion, die bestimmt sein sollte von der Rückbesinnung auf die Ursprünge der Natur und der Schriften. Die "rustic figulines", die auch den heutigen Betrachter noch in Staunen versetzen, zeugen von der Komplexität und dem Reichtum einer ganzen Ära.

Abstract

Pierre Naville (1903-1993) fut une figure du surréalisme, puis un militant professionnel, avant d’entamer la rédaction de ses œuvres majeures, et d’acquérir une légitimité scientifique dans le champ de la sociologie. Pour autant, il ne cessa jamais d’être un militant et un écrivain. Cet ouvrage se propose d’analyser une série de rencontres essentielles, réelles et/ou intellectuelles, dans la vie de Naville : rencontre avec André Breton et les surréalistes, avec Léon Trotsky, avec Georges Friedmann, mais aussi avec Paul Thiry d’Holbach ou John Broadus Watson…. Cette démarche permet ainsi de mieux comprendre la position de ce riche héritier en capital social et culturel dans les différents champs du savoir (politique, littéraire et sociologique), et la façon dont il se situe au cœur de réseaux qui se recoupent, se croisent et s’alimentent les uns les autres. Ce livre offre donc, outre une archéologie des savoirs, des pratiques et des affinités de Pierre Naville, une contribution à la connaissance de la construction, du fonctionnement et de l’imbrication de ces réseaux eux-mêmes : réseaux familiaux, réseaux militants, réseaux intellectuels, réseaux professionnels.

Abstract

In May 1790, the French National Assembly renounced wars of conquest. Two years later, France declared war on Austria and invaded Belgium and the Rhineland, claiming it was to spread the benefits of the Revolution. Soon, however, military and economic crises drove a shift in the nature of France's war effort. What started as a war for liberty became a war for conquest, one that brought devastating exploitation to the Rhineland. It was during this time that French foreign policy became influenced by the idea of attaining the natural frontiers - the Alps, the Pyrenees, and, most significantly, the Rhine. Although often portrayed as a diplomatic tradition of the French monarchy, Jordan R. Hayworth shows how the natural frontiers policy was born during the Revolution. In addition, he examines the intense and consequential debates that arose over the policy, which caused much confusion in the war and helped to undermine France's democratic experiment.

Abstract

From their crystallisation in the late fifth century to their ultimate decline in the eighth, the Merovingian kingdoms were a product of a vibrant Mediterranean society with both a cultural past and a dynamic and ongoing dialogue between the member communities. By bringing together the scholarship of historians, archaeologists, art historians, and manuscript researchers, this volume examines the Merovingian world's Mediterranean connections. The Franks' cultural horizons spanned not only the Latin-speaking world, but also the Byzantine Empire, northern Europe, Sassanid Persia, and, after the seventh century, a quickly ascendant Islamic culture. Traces of a constant movement of people and cultural artefacts through this world are ubiquitous. As simultaneous consumers, adapters, and disseminators of culture, the degree to which the Merovingian kingdoms were thought to engage with their neighbours is re-evaluated as this volume analyses written accounts, archaeological findings and artefacts to provide new perspectives on Merovingian wide-ranging relations.

Abstract

Exploring the myriad efforts to strengthen colonial empire that unfolded in response to France's imperial crisis in the second half of the eighteenth century, Pernille Røge examines how political economists, colonial administrators, planters, and entrepreneurs shaped the recalibration of empire in the Americas and in Africa alongside the intensification of the French Caribbean plantation complex. Emphasising the intellectual contributions of the Economistes (also known as the Physiocrats) to formulate a new colonial doctrine, the book highlights the advent of an imperial discourse of commercial liberalisation, free labour, agricultural development, and civilisation. With her careful documentation of the reciprocal impacts of economic ideas, colonial policy and practices, Røge also details key connections between Ancien Régime colonial innovation and the French Revolution's republican imperial agenda. The result is a novel perspective on the struggles to reinvent colonial empire in the final decades of the Ancien Régime and its influences on the French Revolution and beyond.

Abstract

This timely study sheds new light on debates about humour and identity in France, and is the first book about humour and identity in France to be published in either English or French that analyses both debates about Charlie Hebdo and standup comedy. It examines humour, freedom of expression, and social cohesion in France during a crucial time in France's recent history punctuated by the Charlie Hebdo attacks of January 2015. It evaluates the state of French society and attitudes to humour in France in the aftermath of the events of January 2015. This book argues that debates surrounding Charlie Hebdo, although significant, only provide part of the picture when it comes to understanding humour and multiculturalism in France. This monograph fills significant gaps in French and international media coverage and academic writing, which has generally failed to adequately examine the broader picture that emerges when one examines career trajectories of notable contemporary French comedians. By addressing this failing, this book provides a more complete picture of humour, identity, and Republican values in France. By focusing primarily on contemporary comedians in France, this book explores competing uses of French Republican discourse in debates about humour, offensiveness, and freedom of expression. Ultimately, it argues that studying humour and identity in France often reveals a sense of national unease within the Republic at a time of considerable turmoil.

Abstract

French feminism was central to the theory and culture of Second Wave feminism as an international movement, and 1975 was a key year for the women's movement in France. Through a critical review of the politics, activism and cultural creativity of that moment, from the perspective of both preceding and subsequent 'waves' of feminism, this book evaluates the legacies of 1975, and their strengths and limitations as new questions and new conjunctures have come into play. Edited and written by an international group of feminist scholars, it offers both a critical re-evaluation of a vital moment in women's cultural history, and a new analysis of the relationship between second wave agendas and contemporary feminist politics and culture.
