Corporal punishment is often seen as a litmus test for a society's degree of civilization. Its licit use purports to separate modernity from premodernity, enlightened from barbaric cultures. As Geltner argues, however, neither did the infliction of bodily pain typify earlier societies nor did it vanish from penal theory, policy, or practice. Far from displaying a steady decline that accelerated with the Enlightenment, physical punishment was contested throughout Antiquity and the Middle Ages, its application expanding and contracting under diverse pressures. Moreover, despite the integration of penal incarceration into criminal justice systems since the nineteenth century, modern nation states and colonial regimes increased rather than limited the use of corporal punishment. Flogging Others thus challenges a common understanding of modernization and Western identity and underscores earlier civilizations' nuanced approaches to punishment, deviance, and the human body. Today as in the past, corporal punishment thrives due to its capacity to define otherness efficiently and unambiguously, either as a measure acting upon a deviant's body or as a practice that epitomizes - in the eyes of external observers - a culture's backwardness.

"The modern prison is commonly thought to be the fruit of an Enlightenment penology that stressed man's ability to reform his soul. The Medieval Prison challenges this view by tracing the institution's emergence to a much earlier period beginning in the late thirteenth century, and in doing so provides a unique view of medieval prison life." "G. Geltner carefully reconstructs life inside the walls of prisons in medieval Venice, Florence, Bologna, and elsewhere in Europe. He argues that many enduring features of the modern prison - including administration, finance, and the classification of inmates - were already developed by the end of the fourteenth century, and that incarceration as a formal punishment was far more widespread in this period than is often realized. Geltner likewise shows that inmates in medieval prisons, unlike their modern counterparts, enjoyed frequent contact with society at large. The prison typically stood in the heart of the medieval city, and inmates were not locked away but, rather, subjected to a more coercive version of ordinary life. Geltner explores every facet of this remarkable prison experience - from the terror of an inmate's arrest to the moment of his release, escape, or death - and the ways it was viewed by contemporary observers." "The Medieval Prison rewrites penal history and reveals that medieval society did not have a "persecuting mentality" but in fact was more nuanced in defining and dealing with its marginal elements than is commonly recognized."--BOOK JACKET.

William Chester Jordan’s scholarship has demonstrated the complexity of negotiating power at both the center and margins of medieval society, taking us into the inner chambers of medieval power structures where kings, churchmen and courtiers dwell to the margins of society inhabited by disenfranchised peoples such as Jews, women and the poor. Center and Periphery: Studies on Power in the Medieval World in Honor of William Chester Jordan, edited by Katherine L. Jansen, G. Geltner and Anne E. Lester, honors Professor Jordan by taking up these themes and expanding them from France into Spain, Italy, the Lowlands, and the Mediterranean. The volume highlights how Jordan’s work inspired and influenced a generation of medievalists working in North America and Europe today.

Dès le Moyen Âge, le claustrum et le carcer, le cloître et la prison, ont été associés. Exaltant l’ascèse monastique, Bernard de Clairvaux, pour ne citer que lui, comparait déjà le monastère à une prison ouverte, où seule la crainte de Dieu retenait les moines. Aujourd’hui, les liens entre cloître et prison sont encore perceptibles dans le site exceptionnel de Clairvaux, ancienne abbaye cistercienne fondée au xiie siècle et transformée en centre pénitentiaire au xixe siècle. Dans les années 1960-1970, penseurs des institutions répressives et historiens du monachisme ont âprement polémiqué sur l’analogie entre cloître et prison. Afin de dépasser les apories de ces controverses et de renouer les fils du dialogue interrompu entre historiens du cloître et historiens de la prison, cet ouvrage propose une histoire commune des deux enfermements. Il explore les conceptions et les valeurs associées à l’enfermement, les particularités de la vie en milieu clos, la sociologie des groupes exposés à l’enfermement, dans l’ensemble de l’Europe, de l’Espagne à la Saxe et de l’Angleterre à l’Italie, entre le vie et le xviiie siècle. Faisant appel aux meilleurs spécialistes internationaux de ces questions, il privilégie les vues synthétiques plutôt que les études de cas. Il dessine enfin les renouvellements historiographiques intervenus depuis quatre décennies dans les domaines de l’histoire du droit, de l’histoire sociale et de l’histoire religieuse.
