Abstract

"This book uses oral history methodology to record stories of people who experienced the brunt of racist forced removals in the city of Cape Town, South Africa. Through life stories and community case studies, it traces the human impact of this disruptive, often violent feature of apartheid's social engineering. The impact of displacement is not simply the product of a racist and ethnocentric vision, but also the myriad of experiences of place, people, and communities, which are sustained in the present through remembering and imagining"

Abstract

The rise of the Capetian dynasty across the long thirteenth century, which rested in part on the family's perceived sanctity, is a story most often told through the actions of male figures, from Louis IX's metamorphosis into "Saint Louis" to Philip IV's attacks on Pope Boniface VIII. In Courting Sanctity, Sean L. Field argues that, in fact, holy women were central to the Capetian's self-presentation as being uniquely favored by God. Tracing the shifting relationship between holy women and the French royal court, he shows that the roles and influence of these women were questioned and reshaped under Philip III and increasingly assumed to pose physical, spiritual, and political threats by the time of Philip IV's death. Field's narrative highlights six holy women. The saintly reputations of Isabelle of France and Douceline of Digne helped to crystalize the Capetians' claims of divine favor by 1260. In the 1270s, the French court faced a crisis that centered on the testimony of Elizabeth of Spalbeek, a visionary holy woman from the Low Countries. After 1300, the arrests and interrogations of Paupertas of Metz, Margueronne of Bellevillette, and Marguerite Porete served to bolster Philip IV's crusades against the dangers supposedly threatening the kingdom of France. Courting Sanctity thus reassesses key turning points in the ascent of the "most Christian" Capetian court through examinations of the lives and images of the holy women that the court sanctified or defamed.

Abstract

De la bataille de Bouvines en 1214 à la mort de Philippe le Bel un siècle plus tard, le pouvoir capétien connut un essor irrésistible, appuyé sur une idéologie inspirée par le christianisme: le «très chrétien» roi de France était présenté comme bénéficiaire privilégié de la faveur divine, la France, comme Terre sainte et les Français, comme peuple élu. Des croisades du saint roi Louis au conflit avec le pape Boniface VIII, le récit de cette période où l’Église et le pouvoir royal s’imbriquent et s’affrontent est traditionnellement dominé par un point de vue très masculin.Pourtant, au cours de ce long XIIIe siècle, des saintes femmes furent liées, de gré ou de force, à la dynastie capétienne qui n’hésita pas à s’en servir pour asseoir sa légitimité en renforçant sa sacralité et sa prédestination à la sainteté. Sean L. Field retrace les fastes et les déboires de ces mulieres sanctae qui surent inspirer une crainte matinée de fascination : Isabelle de France, Douceline de Digne, Élisabeth de Spalbeek, Paupertas de Metz, Margueronne de Bellevillette et Marguerite Porete. L’analyse de leurs actions, racontées par elles-mêmes ou par d’autres, met au jour un modèle de sainteté royale à la française, tout en dévoilant le rapport ambivalent que la cour entretint avec le sacré et ses incarnations féminines. -- Quatrième de couverture
