    Abstract: Faut-il rappeler qu'au cours de la première année de son pontificat, Grégoire XI fit envoyer par sa chancellerie 15 450 lettres communes, sans compter les lettres secrètes et curiales ? A une échelle moindre, les États nationaux en formation, les compagnies commerciales et financières de Toscane éprouvaient des besoins d'information semblables et cherchaient à améliorer la circulation des nouvelles. Il faut s'interroger aussi sur les modalités de la transmission et sur la vitesse à laquelle les événements, grands ou petits, pouvaient être connus grâce à des courriers, des voyageurs ou des marchands. Plus spontanée, plus diffuse aussi, la rumeur, ce « plus vieux media du monde », pose d'autres problèmes : comment naît-elle ? se propage-t-elle ? quel en est le contenu ? quelle place joue-t-elle dans le jeu politique, et plus largement dans le corps social ? L'étude des réseaux de communication mène ainsi de la rue à l'échoppe, des relais de chevaux mongols aux coursiers des rois et des papes. Elle nous fait parcourir le monde médiéval, de la Chine à l'Égypte, de Rome à Venise et des Balkans à la Catalogne, sans oublier le royaume de France divisé et meurtri par la guerre de Cent Ans.

    Abstract: Les funérailles sont à la fin du Moyen Âge l'une des grandes cérémonies mettant en scène le pouvoir souverain. A l'image du Christ, qui triomphe de la mort par la résurrection, le prince défunt, plus humblement, triomphe de l'oubli par un faste funèbre impressionnant qui marque durablement les mémoires. La présente étude entreprend de le suivre depuis son décès jusqu'à sa dernière demeure, à travers des cérémonies religieuses, chevaleresques et politiques complexes, qui offrent de nombreuses similitudes avec le rituel royal. De multiples questions, objets de débats historiographiques, sont envisagées, comme la signification de l'effigie, simple ou double corps du prince, la place des funérailles dans les cérémonies d'inauguration ou l'intérêt porté au cœur du défunt. En restituant le prince dans sa majesté, les funérailles sont non seulement un rituel essentiel pour comprendre la spiritualité et les mentalités médiévales, mais également l'indice d'une histoire politique subtile, à l'ombre du trône royal.

    Abstract: Votée le 20 septembre 1792, la loi autorisant le divorce, survient dans une période particulièrement agitée de l'histoire de la Révolution : la Monarchie n'est plus crédible, Assemblée et Commune se déchirent à Paris et les frontières du pays sont menacées. Dans une telle situation, la loi peut paraître anachronique. Fut-elle une décision irraisonnée liée aux outrances de l'époque et à la confusion publique engendrée par les circonstances dramatiques ou, au contraire, l'aboutissement d'un long processus ? C'est ce que les premiers chapitres de ce travail essaient d'éclaircir. La deuxième partie de cet ouvrage commence par une sociologie du divorce lyonnais avant de s'aventurer dans le domaine infiniment délicat de la psychologie historique. En résumé, le divorce révèle-t-il un traumatisme conjoncturel ou une crise des structures de la famille d'Ancien Régime ?...

    Abstract: "This edited collection offers a broad reinterpretation of the origins of Canada. Drawing on cutting-edge research in a number of fields, Violence, Order, and Unrest explores the development of British North America from the mid-eighteenth century through the aftermath of Confederation. The chapters cover an ambitious range of topics, from Indigenous culture to municipal politics, public executions to runaway slave advertisements. Cumulatively, this book examines the diversity of Indigenous and colonial experiences across northern North America and provides fresh perspectives on the crucial roles of violence and unrest in attempts to establish British authority in Indigenous territories. Drawing on specific case studies of law and state formation in English and French Canada, Violence, Order, and Unrest considers patterns of settler colonialism across the century before Confederation. The result is a collection that brings together innovative research in different fields to reconsider the ideology, governance, and political culture that underpinned British North America. In the aftermath of Canada 150, Violence, Order, and Unrest offers a timely contribution to current debates over the nature of Canadian culture and history. It demonstrates that we cannot understand Canada today without considering its origins as a colonial project."--

    Abstract: "This book uses a wide range of sources on slavery--early American newspapers, court records, slave owners' journals, abolitionist literature, and the testimony of former slaves collected in autobiographies and in interviews--to argue that enslaved black men were sexually assaulted by both white men and white women. Scholarship has focused on women's exploitation and abuse and has noted that many of our sources similarly emphasize the abuse of women, silencing the stories of men. However, a careful reading of extant sources finds that sexual assault of enslaved men took a wide variety of forms, including outright physical penetrative assault, forced reproduction, sexual coercion and manipulation, and psychic abuse."--Provided by publisher

    Abstract: "From National Jewish Book Award Winner and author of Israel, a bold reevaluation of the tensions between American and Israeli Jews that reimagines the past, present, and future of Jewish life. Relations between the American Jewish community and Israel are at an all-time nadir. Since Israel's founding seventy years ago, particularly as memory of the Holocaust and of Israel's early vulnerability has receded, the divide has grown only wider. Most explanations pin the blame on Israel's handling of its conflict with the Palestinians, Israel's attitude toward non-Orthodox Judaism, and Israel's dismissive attitude toward American Jews in general. In short, the cause for the rupture is not what Israel is; it's what Israel does. These explanations tell only half the story. We Stand Divided examines the history of the troubled relationship, showing that from the outset, the founders of what are now the world's two largest Jewish communities were responding to different threats and opportunities, and had very different ideas of how to guarantee a Jewish future. With an even hand, Daniel Gordis takes us beyond the headlines and explains how Israel and America have fundamentally different ideas about issues ranging from democracy and history to religion and identity. He argues that as a first step to healing the breach, the two communities must acknowledge and discuss their profound differences and moral commitments. Only then can they forge a path forward, together." --

    Abstract: "Dimensions of Heritage and Memory is a landmark contribution on the politics of the past in Europe today. The book explores the meanings of heritage in a time of crisis, when the past permeates social and political divisions, identity contests and official projects to forge a European community. Providing an overview of the literature and an analysis of the assumptions, values and philosophies embedded within European-level policy, the book explores different dimensions of heritage and memory, from official sites, museums and policy, to party politics, historical re-enactments and the everyday ways in which people use the past to make sense of who they are. The volume explores how different understandings of and attachments to the European past produce different 'Europes' in the present, accounting for today's tense social and political relations. The book also explores formative histories for European identities that are neglected or hidden because of political circumstances and non-official heritage. Contributors consider the meanings of interlocking crises, such as economic fallout, xenophobia and the fragmentation of the EU, for new understandings of Europe's past in the present. Dimensions of Heritage and Memory will be of great interest to researchers, academics and postgraduate students in the fields of heritage and memory studies, museum studies, history, cultural studies, sociology, anthropology and politics. The book will also be interesting to practitioners and cultural heritage policymakers"--

    Abstract: "There are many controversies and chronic misconceptions surrounding the idea of emancipation in the nineteenth-century United States. Much recent scholarship has sought to address these misconceptions ... Reidy further enriches and complicates our understanding of emancipation in the context of the Civil War. Drawing us back to testimonies of participants and contemporary witnesses of the era and synthesizing the perspectives of subsequent observers, Reidy reveals emancipation as a long, messy process, with contingencies that clustered around the categories of time, place, and person ... Reidy's thematic approach allows him to shed new light on the wide-ranging and diverse expressions and experiences of freedom as it came suddenly, slowly, or not at all"--

    Abstract: "Drawing on extensive fieldwork on the internal politics of the Kachin and Karen rebel movements, the book analyses the hidden social dynamics and everyday practices of political violence in Myanmar's war-torn borderlands to present a perspective on one of the world's longest running but least researched armed conflicts."

    Abstract: A revealing look at how the memory of the plague held the poor responsible for epidemic disease in eighteenth-century Britain Britain had no idea that it would not see another plague after the horrors of 1666, and for a century and a half the fear of epidemic disease gripped and shaped British society. Plague doctors had long asserted that the bodies of the poor were especially prone to generating and spreading contagious disease, and British doctors and laypeople alike took those warnings to heart, guiding medical ideas of class throughout the eighteenth century. Dense congregations of the poor-in workhouses, hospitals, slums, courtrooms, markets, and especially prisons-were rendered sites of immense danger in the public imagination, and the fear that small outbreaks might run wild became a profound cultural force. Extensively researched, with a wide body of evidence, this book offers a fascinating look at how class was constructed physiologically and provides a new connection between the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries and the ravages of plague and cholera, respectively

    Abstract: Les hommes des siècles passés étaient-ils plus violents que nous ? On a depuis longtemps postulé que les gens du Moyen Âge et de l'époque moderne avaient eu des comportements brutaux avant d'apprendre à se contenir, à se civiliser, et parvenir à des mœurs enfin dignes à partir du xviiie ou du xixe siècle. L'importance des actes de violence dans les sources judiciaires semblerait le confirmer mais s'agissait-il des indices d'une immoralité générale ou d'actes exceptionnels ? Le travail critique mené dans Brutes ou braves gens ? réexamine les méthodes, critique les sources, apporte des pièces inédites et donne des exemples d'utilisation des sources textuelles et iconographiques, comme les scènes de rixes paysannes qui, correctement interprétées, ne peuvent plus être retenues comme des preuves. L'étude minutieuse d'un procès du début du xviie siècle pour homicide (édité en entier) montre qu'au-delà des apparences d'un acte impulsif commis par une « brute », on peut retrouver les motivations et les circonstances d'une mise à mort préméditée, constater le trouble d'une population pas du tout habituée à de tels crimes et s'interroger sur la violence légale appliquée aux accusés. Livre d'Histoire consacré à la violence et sa mesure du xvie au xviiie siècle, Brutes ou braves gens ? rejoint des débats actuels sur les formes et les chiffres de la criminalité, dont on connaît les enjeux politiques.

    Abstract: Se situant délibérément dans la longue durée, historiens des textes, spécialistes de l'iconographie, archéologues et anthropologues croisent leurs apports pour redonner vie à l'histoire de l'humanité qui, dénuée de parole, a été si longtemps privée d'histoire. Derrière les clichés qui s'effondrent, se révèle un univers enfantin qui nous paraît à la fois différent et étrangement familier.

    Abstract: Cet ouvrage collectif est la publication des actes de la journée d'étude, organisée le 31 janvier 1992 par l'Équipe de Recherche en Histoire Politique Contemporaine, EHRPC, équipe d'accueil créée en 1991 à l'Université Michel de Montaigne - Bordeaux III mais qui rassemble également des historiens des Universités de Pau et de Limoges ainsi que de l'Institut d'Etudes politiques. Les élites, comprises ici au sens large, soit des élites politiques, économiques et culturelles, sont étudiées principalement dans l'espace du grand Sud-Ouest mais des exemples nationaux et étrangers élargissent le cadre régional. L'étude comparée entre les deux fins de siècles, xixe et xxe siècles, soulève le problème de la permanence ou du renouvellement des élites, de la constitution de viviers et de réseaux. Les auteurs ont pu constater au travers de leurs études très largement prosopographiques que ces deux fins de siècles sont un aboutissement plutôt qu'une rupture. La cause en est la faculté d'adaptation des élites aux structures qui elles peuvent changer. Le modèle opératoire des élites présente bien des permanences dans ces deux fins de siècles.

    Abstract: Ce recueil, réunissant des chercheurs beiges et congolais, témoigne du regain d'intérêt que suscite l'histoire du Congo en Belgique depuis quelques années. Par l'analyse croisée et contradictoire si nécessaire pour rendre compte de la réalité historique des événements survenus entre 1955 et 1960, il souligne les cinquante ans de la publication du manifeste Conscience africaine le 30 juin 1956 ou le 1er juillet 1956. En concentrant l'attention sur l'événement retenu dans la chronologie de la prise de conscience politique des Congolais, on réduit la complexité des courants ayant porté ce texte, comme le montrent à l'envi les contributions réunies ici. Cependant, la commémoration s'accommode difficilement des explications plus conjoncturelles et structurelles qui permettent d'interpréter l'événement dans sa cohérence, avec les contradictions inhérentes au jeu d'échelle géographique et temporel. Que s'est-il donc réellement passe le 30 juin 1956 ? Date symbolique de l'histoire récente du Congo, l'événement a été vécu et interprété de manière très différente. Une réappropriation univoque dans le cadre de la commémoration des cinquante ans ne témoigne pas de cette diversité. II convient dès lors de contextualiser ce « réveil », cette « première manifestation publique » d'une conscience d'appartenir à un groupe social distinct par l'analyse du contexte immédiat et de l'héritage, réel ou suppose, attribué à Conscience africaine.

    Abstract: Si la noblesse, considérée comme un ordre de la société, dotée d'un statut juridique particulier qui est transmissible par le sang, est clairement distinguée en France au xiie siècle, si la composition de ce corps peut être décrite à partir du xive siècle, les lignages ne se perpétuent pas, semble-t-il durant plus de six générations. Sous des attributs prestigieux, durablement définis et reconnus, un incessant mouvement de renouvellement se déroule. L'anoblissement qui fait d'un homme noble, selon l'article du dictionnaire de l'Académie française en 1694, est le principe même qui entretient un corps dont la place est éminente dans la hiérarchie sociale. Il était intéressant d'étudier ce processus à travers les traités théoriques et à travers des ensembles régionaux ou simplement des cas familiaux.

    Abstract: Comme tant d'autres exilés, les républicains espagnols ont quitté leur pays, en 1939, avec l'intention d'y revenir dès sa reconquête. Mais la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale ne leur a pas ouvert les portes du retour. Ils ont dû se persuader que la séparation allait durer. Toute une vie peut-être. Apprendre à vivre sans l'Espagne, et sans eux laisser vivre l'Espagne. Certains sont pourtant rentrés, mettant à profit les amnisties proposées par Franco, mais perdant l'estime de leurs compagnons d'exil. Plus tard d'autres s'en sont tenus à de brefs allers-retours, renouant avec leur famille, leurs paysages, leur enfance. Mais ils ont compris qu'ils ne retrouveraient jamais l'Espagne qu'ils avaient laissée derrière eux, figée comme un arrêt sur image. Une nouvelle génération grandissait, dont la guerre civile n'était plus l'expérience fondatrice. L'exil, c'est peut-être moins la perte d'un territoire que celle du temps : les républicains ont été privés de trente ans de la vie de leur pays. À la fin, ils ont dû s'avouer que leur véritable Espagne était cette image qu'ils avaient emportée et gardée en exil. Ils ont vieilli en France. Après en avoir rêvé si longtemps, ils ont su que le retour était impossible ; pas même souhaitable, peut-être, maintenant qu'un autre pays vivant les a mêlés à sa chair. Souffrances et consolations intimes, que ce livre excelle à faire découvrir, à l'aide de très nombreux témoignages.

    Abstract: Cet ouvrage analyse le devenir d'un « imaginaire raciologique », c'est-à-dire des représentations fondées sur l'idée de l'existence de « races » humaines - ces représentations qui se sont développées, dans le cadre d'une anthropologie classificatoire, au cours du xixe siècle, selon une pensée de type polygéniste, avec les implications racistes qu'elle a pu véhiculer ou légitimer. Cet imaginaire raciologique n'est pas sans contradiction : il postule parfois aussi bien une fixité des « races » qu'une peur qu'elles ne se mélangent. Mais dans un cas comme dans l'autre s'établissent des hiérarchies, mises au service de différents discours de domination et d'exclusion. La spécificité de l'approche comparatiste développée ici consiste à s'interroger sur la diffusion, en France, de ces discours raciologiques, mais aussi sur leurs réinterprétations (souvent mises au service d'un discours nationaliste), au xxe siècle, dans l'espace soviétique et russe, que ce soit dans la littérature ou dans des corpus de type anthropologique, sociologique, politique ou philosophique.

    Abstract: "One of the fundamental questions of Middle Eastern, and Lebanese studies in particular, is the history of the relationship between the Druze community and the state in modern Lebanon. Arguing that the Druze community has been politically alienated from the Lebanese state, this book explores the historical and political origins of this alienation. The Druze Community and the Lebanese State contends that the origins of this alienation lie in the state's national ideology, its political confessional system, and the Druze's historical background during the medieval period. Moreover, this book examines the extent to which the Druze's attitude vis-à-vis the Lebanese state has been influenced by their historical rivalry with the Maronites. Particular emphasis is placed on the political and ideological practices adopted by the Druze leadership and intelligentsia as they dealt with the changes taking place in their community's political status following the political settlements of 1920 and 1943 (the establishment of Greater Lebanon and the National Pact, respectively). A welcome addition to existing literature on Lebanon, this book will be an essential reference tool for students and researchers with an interest in nationalism, identity and Middle East Politics more broadly"..

    Abstract: Material Encounters and Indigenous Transformations in the Early Colonial Americas brings together 15 case studies focusing on the early colonial history and archaeology of indigenous cultural persistence and change in the Caribbean and its surrounding mainland(s) after AD 1492. With a special emphasis on material culture and by foregrounding indigenous agency in shaping the diverse outcomes of colonial encounters, this volume offers new perspectives on early modern cultural interactions in the first regions of the ‘New World’ that were impacted by European colonization. The volume contributors specifically investigate how foreign goods were differentially employed, adopted, and valued across time, space, and scale, and what implications such material encounters had for indigenous social, political, and economic structures.

    Abstract: "Want. Disease. Ignorance. Squalor. Idleness. Taken together, these comprise the 'giant evils' expressed in the Social Question--first raised in mid-nineteenth-century Europe to diagnose the crises produced by the emergence of the industrial society. Due to a globalized switch to neoliberalism in the final quarter of the twentieth century, the Social Question has made a worldwide comeback. The Social Question in the Twenty-First Century maps out the linked crises across regions and countries and identifies the renewed and intensified social question as a labor issue above all. The volume includes discussions from every corner of the globe, focusing on American exceptionalism, Chinese repression, Indian exclusion, South African colonialism, democratic transitions in Eastern Europe, and other phenomena. The effects of capitalism dominating the world, the impact of the scarcity of waged work, and the acknowledgment of how the dispossessed poor bear the brunt of the crisis are all evaluated in this carefully curated volume. Both thorough and thoughtful, the book serves as collective effort to revive and reposition the Social Question, reconstructing its meaning and its politics in the world today." - Provided by publisher

    Abstract: "The Way of the Barbarians examines a critical period in the development of conceptions of Chinese identity and of foreignness. After tracing thought about culture, customs, ritual, and ethnicity to BCE classical texts, Shao-yun Yang focuses on the meaning and boundaries of Chineseness during the Tang (618-907 CE) and Song (960-1276 CE) dynasties. This period is widely seen as a watershed during which Chinese society was transformed in fundamental ways by population growth, commercialization, urbanization, technological advances, the decline of the long-dominant 'great clan' elite, and the rise of a new literati elite via the greatly expanded civil service examination system. Accompanying shifts occurred in how the Chinese defined themselves as a people and understood their relationship to the rest of the world. Previous scholarship has postulated a ninth-century shift from a spirit of cosmopolitanism--which identified foreign peoples as 'barbarians' who were morally and culturally inferior but who could become Chinese through a 'civilizing' process of acculturation--to one of ostracism. Another view identifies a twelfth-century shift from a traditional notion of culturalism to a new Chinese nationalism, which considered foreigners to be immutably and dangerously 'other' and called for their exclusion from the Chinese world, by force if necessary. This carefully argued intellectual history challenges previous thinking regarding the balance between culture, nation, and race in premodern Chinese identity and engages with ongoing debates over the applicability and relevance of the concept of ethnicity to premodern China"--

    Abstract: "Aux XVIIe- et XVIIIe siècles, les désordres conjugaux sont présents dans la littérature, le théâtre, l'iconographie, les écrits religieux, la production juridique ou encore les expressions populaires. La fameuse "dispute pour la culotte" marque l'imaginaire collectif français : qui, de l'homme ou de la femme, dirige réellement la vie conjugale et la famille ? Partant de cette interrogation, cet ouvrage dépasse les représentations pour se confronter aux pratiques. En effet, de la lecture des archives de près d'un millier de procès en séparations de biens ou de corps ou de divorce, surgissent les émotions, les souffrances et les bonheurs, l'impuissance, les rumeurs, les menaces, les défaillances ou les duperies qui émaillent les vies conjugales brisées. Si ces désordres ont déjà fait l'objet d'études pour les élites, les grandes villes ou la période suivante, c'est une plongée au coeur du quotidien des Françaises et des Français "ordinaires", du peuple du royaume, depuis le début du règne de Louis XIII jusqu'aux conséquences de la loi révolutionnaire de 1792 autorisant le divorce, qui est proposée ici par l'auteur, documents à l'appui."--Page 4 of cover

    Abstract: Encore au XIXe et au XVe siècle, la croisade garde une vivacité étonnante dans la mémoire des hommes et dans leurs projets. Naturellement, la noblesse se révèle le groupe social le mieux disposé à son égard : le combat contre les infidèles est devenu un ornement chevaleresque. Les romans s'emplissent du récit des exploits de Charlemagne et de Godefroi de Bouillon, les ordres militaires conservent un prestige bien supérieur à ce qu'on écrit parfois, et les nobles de tout l'Occident s'en vont sur les frontières de la chrétienté, en Prusse ou en péninsule Ibérique, éprouver leur valeur face aux ennemis de la Croix. Faute de pouvoir embrasser le phénomène dans toute l'étendue de sa géographie, nous avons fait le choix de ne traiter, dans ce volume, que de la France, de la Bourgogne et de la Bohême. Pour les contemporains, la France, et plus encore son souverain, sont naturellement associés à l'idée de croisade, qu'il s'agisse de la récupération de la Terre sainte ou de la défense de la chrétienté contre les Ottomans. Aux côtés de la France, la Bourgogne tient un rang privilégié car, profitant de la faiblesse de leurs voisins, ses ducs ont opéré une translatio qui leur a permis de se présenter comme les plus aptes à relever le défi turc. Enfin, la Bohême mérite une attention toute particulière. Dans les années 1420, les nobles hussites se trouvent dans la situation inédite de devoir défendre par les armes leurs choix religieux et de conduire une guerre qu'ils jugent sainte face aux croisés mandatés par l'autorité pontificale. Confrontés à l'hostilité du pape, sans subir directement le péril musulman, ils ne tournent pourtant pas le dos à la chrétienté latine et manifestent, au contraire, le désir de prendre leur part de sa défense. En Bohême se trouvent ainsi noués beaucoup des enjeux qui sous-tendent le problème des conflits interconfessionnels en Europe à la fin du Moyen Âge.

    Abstract: "Delusional States is the first in-depth study of state-making and social change in Gilgit-Baltistan, a Shia-majority region of Sunni-dominated Pakistan and a contested border area that forms part of disputed Kashmir. For over seven decades, the territorial conflict over Kashmir has locked India and Pakistan in brutal wars and hate-centred nationalisms. The book illuminates how within this story of hate lie other stories -- of love and betrayal, loyalty and suspicion, beauty and terror -- that help us grasp how the Kashmir conflict is affectively structured and experienced on the ground. Placing these emotions at the centre of its analysis, the book rethinks the state-citizen relation in deeply felt and intimate terms, offering a multi-layered ethnographic understanding of power and subjection in contemporary Pakistan"--

    Abstract: La question des rapports entre les sexes et de la définition des rôles sexués est assez familière aux spécialistes de l'Antiquité. Néanmoins le renouvellement théorique apporté par la notion de genre incite l'équipe Phéacie, qui réunit des chercheurs et des enseignants-chercheurs spécialistes de l'Antiquité grecque et romaine, à proposer un premier bilan des problèmes que leur pose l'usage de cette catégorie. La variété des sources étudiées, épigraphiques, papyrologiques, archéologiques, littéraires, témoigne de l'ampleur que peut prendre un tel questionnement historique susceptible de renouveler radicalement la lecture de tel ou tel document supposé bien connu. Par ailleurs, les cadres normatifs observables dans les sociétés antiques, une fois mis au jour, paraissent sujets à bien des gauchissements, voire des transgressions. Ceux-ci rendent compte, à leur tour, de la dynamique des identités de genre qu'on ne saurait réduire à deux contenus, le masculin et le féminin. Néanmoins cette polarité reste un ordonnancement politiquement utile, permettant de hiérarchiser les individus et les comportements, et, exceptionnellement, de valoriser des caractéristiques socialement associées à un sexe ou un autre, tels l'obéissance pour les filles de leurs pères et le courage physique pour les fils de la cité.

    Abstract: "This collection forges new ground in the discussion of aristocratic and royal women, their relationships with their objects, and medieval geography. It explores how women's geographic and familial networks spread well beyond the borders that defined men's sense of region and how the movement of their belongings can reveal essential information about how women navigated these often-disparate spaces. Beginning in early medieval Scandinavia, ranging from Byzantium to Rus', and multiple lands in Western Europe up to 1500, the essays span a great spatio-temporal range. Moreover, the types of objects extend from traditionally studied works like manuscripts and sculpture, to liturgical and secular ceremonial instruments, icons, and articles of personal adornment, such as textiles and jewelry, even including shoes"--

    Abstract: "Although Canadian women’s history is now nearly forty years old, no volume exists that reflects explicitly upon the field’s evolution and assesses its historiographical context. This retrospective is not merely summative; the essays in this collection are analytical engagements with the current state of the field, which draw on its rich past to generate new knowledge and propose innovative avenues for inquiry. The dual purposes of this collection are to contemplate the field’s past and to contribute productively to its future. These thirteen original essays are written by scholars at all career stages. The diversity of these authors’ perspectives illustrates the contributions that Canadian scholarship has had in international dialogues about women’s and gender history and that it continues to be a vibrant area of research. The collection includes chapters about the principal sub-fields in Canadian women’s and gender history, including specialized chapters on Québecois, Indigenous, Black, and immigrant women’s histories, religious history, labour history, war and society, history of sexuality, the history of reproductive labour and reproductive justice, two essays on the history of feminism that, taken together, cover the period from 1850 to the present, and a thematic essay on the colonial period."--

    Abstract: "The riveting, little-known story of Mary Mildred Williams--a slave girl who looked 'white'--whose photograph transformed the abolitionist movement. When a decades-long court battle resulted in her family's freedom in 1855, seven-year-old Mary Mildred Williams unexpectedly became the face of American slavery. During a sold-out abolitionist lecture series, Senator Charles Sumner paraded Mary in front of rapt audiences as evidence that slavery knew no bounds. Weaving together long-overlooked primary sources and arresting images, including the daguerreotype that turned Mary into the poster child of a movement, Jessie Morgan-Owens investigates tangled generations of sexual enslavement and the fraught politics that led Mary to Sumner. She restores Mary's story to history and uncovers a dramatic narrative of travels along the Underground Railroad, relationships tested by oppression, and the struggles of life after emancipation. The result is an exposé of the thorny racial politics of the abolitionist movement and the pervasive colorism that dictated where white sympathy lay--one that sheds light on a shameful legacy that still affects us profoundly today"--

    Abstract: There is no single volume that encompasses an integrated social and cultural history of the Sámi people from the Nordic countries and northwestern Russia. Neil Kent's book fills this lacuna. In the first instance, he considers how the Sámi homeland is defined: its geography, climate, and early contact with other peoples. He then moves on to its early chronicles and the onset of colonisation, which changed Sámi life profoundly over the last millennium. Thereafter, the nature of Sámi ethnicity is examined, in the context of the peoples among whom the Sámi increasingly lived, as well as the growing intrusions of the states who claimed sovereignty over them. The Soviet gulag, the Lapland War and increasing urbanisation all impacted upon Sámi life. Religion, too, played an important role from pre-historic times, with their pantheon of gods and sacred sites, to their Christianisation. In the late twentieth century there has been an increasing symbiosis of ancient Sámi spiritual practice with Christianity. Recently the intrusions of the logging and nuclear industries, as well as tourism have come to redefine Sámi society and culture. Even the meaning of who exactly is a Sámi is scrutinised, at a time when some intermarry and yet return to Sámi, where their children maintain their Sámi identity

    Abstract: "This ground-breaking volume explores a series of inter-related key themes in Saharan archaeology and history. Migration and identity formation can both be approached from the perspective of funerary archaeology, using the combined evidence of burial structures, specific rites and funerary material culture, and integrated methods of skeletal analysis including morphometrics, palaeopathology and isotopes. Burial traditions from various parts of the Sahara are compared and contrasted with those of the Nile Valley, the Maghreb and West Africa. Several chapters deal with the related evidence of human migration derived from linguistic study. The volume presents the state of the field of funerary archaeology in the Sahara and its neighbouring regions and sets the agenda for future research on mobility, migration and identity. It will be a seminal reference point for Mediterranean and African archaeologists, historians and anthropologists as well as archaeologists interested in burial and migration more broadly"...

    Abstract: "Despite competing with much larger imperialist neighbors in Southeast Asia, the Kingdom of Thailand--or Siam, as it was formerly known--has succeeded in transforming itself into a rival modern nation-state over the last two centuries. Recent historiography has placed progress--or lack thereof--toward Western-style liberal democracy at the center of Thailand's narrative, but that view underestimates the importance of the colonial context. In particular, a long-standing relationship with China and the existence of a large and important Chinese diaspora within Thailand have shaped development at every stage. As the emerging nation struggled against colonial forces in Southeast Asia, ethnic Chinese entrepreneurs were neither a colonial force against whom Thainess was identified, nor had they been able to fully assimilate into Thai society. Wasana Wongsurawat demonstrates that the Kingdom of Thailand's transformation into a modern nation-state required the creation of a national identity that justified not only the hegemonic rule of monarchy but also the involvement of the ethnic Chinese entrepreneurial class upon whom it depended. Her revisionist view traces the evolution of this codependent relationship through the twentieth century, as Thailand struggled against colonial forces in Southeast Asia, found itself an ally of Japan in World War II, and reconsidered its relationship with China in the postwar era"--

The social identity studied in this work focuses primarily on how Mississippians thought of their place within a national context, whether as Americans, Confederates, or both.

    Abstract: In this history of the social and human sciences in Mexico and the United States, Karin Alejandra Rosemblatt reveals intricate connections among the development of science, the concept of race, and policies toward indigenous peoples. Focusing on the anthropologists, sociologists, biologists, physicians, and other experts who collaborated across borders from the Mexican Revolution through World War II, Rosemblatt traces how intellectuals on both sides of the Rio Grande forged shared networks in which they discussed indigenous peoples and other ethnic minorities.

    Abstract: "A History of Catalan Folk Literature is the fruit of a collaborative effort between fifteen researchers from various universities and research centres who have joined forces to create a broader study of Catalan folk literature that addresses the Catalan linguistic and cultural territories in their entirety. Since the thirteenth century, Catalan culture has created a rich and abundant literary legacy, and since the mid-nineteenth century this has been complemented by a tradition of folklore studies that remains very much alive today. Within this comparatively recent discipline, folk literature has played a particularly important role. The book presents the evolution of Catalan folk literature studies in each of the areas that make up the Catalan linguistic and cultural territories referred to above. The period considered stretches from the mid-nineteenth century, when the beginnings of a scientific interest in folklore emerged across Europe, to the present day"--

    Abstract: How authors rendered Dakhota philosophy by literary means to encode ethical and political connectedness and sovereign life within a settler surveillance state Translated Nation examines literary works and oral histories by Dakhota intellectuals from the aftermath of the 1862 U.S.-Dakota War to the present day, highlighting creative Dakhota responses to violences of the settler colonial state. Christopher Pexa argues that the assimilation era of federal U.S. law and policy was far from an idle one for the Dakhota people, but rather involved remaking the Oyate (the Oceti sakowi? Oyate or People of the Seven Council Fires) through the encrypting of Dakhota political and relational norms in plain view of settler audiences. From Nicholas Black Elk to Charles Alexander Eastman to Ella Cara Deloria, Pexa analyzes well-known writers from a tribally centered perspective that highlights their contributions to Dakhota/Lakhota philosophy and politics. He explores how these authors, as well as oral histories from the Spirit Lake Dakhota Nation, invoke thiospaye (extended family or kinship) ethics to critique U.S. legal translations of Dakhota relations and politics into liberal molds of heteronormativity, individualism, property, and citizenship. He examines how Dakhota intellectuals remained part of their social frameworks even while negotiating the possibilities and violence of settler colonial framings, ideologies, and social forms. Bringing together oral and written as well as past and present literatures, Translated Nation expands our sense of literary archives and political agency and demonstrates how Dakhota peoplehood not only emerges over time but in everyday places, activities, and stories. It provides a distinctive view of the hidden vibrancy of a historical period that is often tied only to Indigenous survival.

    Abstract: Depuis les années 1960, la contribution de J.-M. Pesez a été déterminante dans la définition des méthodes et des buts de l'archéologie médiévale en France. Initiateur des grandes enquêtes lancées autour de la question des désertions des habitats ruraux dans le courant du Moyen Age, il est une autorité en ce qui concerne le village et la civilisation matérielle médiévale. Il a présidé durant de nombreuses années le Conseil Supérieur de l'Archéologie. Au moment de son départ à la retraite, ses élèves et ses amis ont souhaité constituer un recueil thématique d'articles, et le lui offrir en hommage. Le volume est divisé en trois sections, qui correspondent aux trois axes des travaux et de renseignement de Jean-Marie Pesez : la maison (techniques de construction, distribution de l'espace, fonction de ses éléments), les habitants et les objets (technique de formation et de conservation), le finage (constitution du paysage, utilisation des terroirs) sont tour à tour abordes dans ce recueil qui présente un état de la recherche sur ces questions.

    Abstract: In this expansive and engaging narrative William Acree guides readers through the deep history of popular entertainment before turning to circus culture and rural dramas that celebrated the countryside on stage. More than just riveting social experiences, these dramas were among the region's most dominant attractions on the eve of the twentieth century. Staging Frontiers further explores the profound impacts this phenomenon had on the ways people interacted and on the broader culture that influenced the region. This new, modern popular culture revolved around entertainment and related products, yet it was also central to making sense of social class, ethnic identity, and race as demographic and economic transformations were reshaping everyday experiences in this rapidly urbanizing region

    Abstract: "Dress became a testing ground for masculine ideals in Renaissance Italy. With the establishment of the ducal regime in Florence in 1530, there was increasing debate about how to be a nobleman. Was fashionable clothing a sign of magnificence or a source of mockery? Was the graceful courtier virile or effeminate? How could a man dress for court without bankrupting himself? This book explores the whole story of clothing, from the tailor's workshop to spectacular court festivities, to show how the male nobility in one of Italy's main textile production centres used their appearances to project social, sexual, and professional identities. Sixteenth-century male fashion is often associated with swagger and ostentation but this book shows that Florentine clothing reflected manhood at a much deeper level, communicating a very Italian spectrum of male virtues and vices, from honour, courage, and restraint to luxury and excess. Situating dress at the heart of identity formation, Currie traces these codes through an array of sources, including unpublished archival records, surviving garments, portraiture, poetry, and personal correspondence between the Medici and their courtiers. Addressing important themes such as gender, politics, and consumption, Fashion and Masculinity in Renaissance Florence sheds fresh light on the sartorial culture of the Florentine court and Italy as a whole"...

    Note: "Within the field of ancient bilingualism, Sicily represents a unique terrain for analysis as a result of its incredibly rich linguistic history, in which 'colonial' languages belonging to branches as diverse as Italic (Oscan and Latin), Greek and Semitic (Phoenician) interacted with the languages of the natives (the elusive Sicel, Sicanian and Elymian). The result of this ancient melting-pot was a culture characterised by 'postcolonial' features such as ethnic hybridity, multilingualism and artistic and literary experimentation. While Greek soon emerged as the leading language, dominating official communication and literature, epigraphic sources and indirect evidence show that the minority languages held their ground down to the fifth century BCE, and in some cases beyond. The first two parts of the volume discuss these languages and their interaction with Greek, while the third part focuses on the sociolinguistic revolution brought about by the arrival of the Romans"-- Provided by publisher. , Includes bibliographical references and index

    Abstract: An ethnography of the Mongolian capital city of Ulaanbaatar during the nation's transition from socialism to a market-based economic system. Urban Hunters is an ethnography of the Mongolian capital city, Ulaanbaatar, during the nation's transition from socialism to a market-based economic system. Following the Soviet Union's collapse in 1991, Mongolia entered a period of economic chaos characterized by wild inflation, disappearing banks, and closing farms, factories, and schools. During this time of widespread poverty, a generation of young adults came of age. In exploring the social, cultural, and existential ramifications of a transition that has become permanent and acquired a logic of its own, Lars Hojer and Morten Axel Pedersen present a new theorization of social agency in postsocialist as well as postcolonial contexts

    Abstract: "This ground-breaking volume explores a series of inter-related key themes in Saharan archaeology and history. Migration and identity formation can both be approached from the perspective of funerary archaeology, using the combined evidence of burial structures, specific rites and funerary material culture, and integrated methods of skeletal analysis including morphometrics, palaeopathology and isotopes. Burial traditions from various parts of the Sahara are compared and contrasted with those of the Nile Valley, the Maghreb and West Africa. Several chapters deal with the related evidence of human migration derived from linguistic study. The volume presents the state of the field of funerary archaeology in the Sahara and its neighbouring regions and sets the agenda for future research on mobility, migration and identity. It will be a seminal reference point for Mediterranean and African archaeologists, historians and anthropologists as well as archaeologists interested in burial and migration more broadly"...

    Abstract: ""Eleanora "Lady Day" Fagan, better known as Billie Holiday, played a primary role in the development of American jazz culture and in African American history. Devoted to the enduring jazz icon, covering many aspects of her career, image and legacy, these essays range from musical and vocal analyses, to critical assessments of film depictions of the singer, to analysis of the social movements and protests addressed by her signature songs, including her impact on contemporary movements such as #BlackLivesMatter. More than a century after her birth, Billie Holiday's abiding relevance and impact is a testament to the power of musical protest. This collection pays tribute to her creativity, bravery and lasting legacy."--

    Abstract: "Since 1824, Bahians have marked independence with a popular festival that contrasts sharply with the official commemoration of Brazil's independence on 7 September. The Dois de Julho (2 July) festival celebrates the day the Portuguese troops were expelled from Salvador in 1823, the culmination of a year-long war that gave independence a radical meaning in Bahia. Bahia's Independence traces the history of the Dois de Julho festival in Salvador, the Brazilian state's capital, from 1824 to 1900. Hendrik Kraay discusses how the festival draws on elements of saints' processions, carnivals, and civic ritual in the use of such distinctive features as the indigenist symbols of independence called the caboclos and the massive procession into the city that re-enacts the patriots' victorious entry in 1823. Providing a social history of celebration, Kraay explains how Bahians of all classes, from slaves to members of the elite, placed their stamp on the festivities and claimed recognition and citizenship through participation. Analyzing debates published in newspapers--about appropriate forms of commemoration and the nature of Bahia's relationship to Brazil--as well as theatrical and poetic representations of the festival, this volume unravels how Dois de Julho celebrations became so integral to Bahia's self-representation and to its politics. The first history of this unique festival's origins, Bahia's Independence reveals how enthusiastic celebrations allowed an active and engaged citizenry to express their identity as both Bahians and Brazilians and to seek to create the nation they desired.
