Book excerpt: Le Moyen Age, on l'oublie parfois, a une histoire. On ne trouvera point ici le tableau de civilisations saisies à leur apogée, dans leur essence, mais le récit des lents cheminements, des crises, des ruptures, des progrès et des échecs, des genèses et des aboutissements qui constituent la durée d'une époque. Civilisations, au pluriel, et pas seulement l'occidentale. L'Islam et Byzance, ces nouveaux mondes, y dialoguent avec l'Europe de l'Ouest : l'histoire médiévale est faite de leurs contacts, de leurs échanges et de leurs luttes, des flux et des reflux de leurs successives prédominances. Les conditions matérielles de la vie quotidienne, l'économie et la société, les structures politiques ou familiales, la sensibilité religieuse, l'activité intellectuelle et les créations artistiques sont présentées dans ce livre, non comme des domaines séparés dans des chapitres bien clos, mais dans leurs interférences et leurs influences réciproques. Une synthèse, donc. Mais pas un discours dont l'idéologie ou une théorie dominante assurerait l'unité factice et qui évacuerait la singularité des événements. La diversité des auteurs entretient le pluralisme des points de vue, la pluralité des éclairages, même si le fil conducteur est fermement tenu par le meneur de jeu. Chemin faisant, plus d'un lieu commun sur le Moyen Age vole en éclats. C'est qu'il ne s'agit pas de vérifier le bien-fondé d'une doctrine préconçue, mais de participer au travail de l'historien, de discuter avec lui des problèmes qu'il pose, qu'il essaie de résoudre, bref d'assister à l'histoire en train de se faire.

Download or read book Les racines de l Europe written by Michel Rouche and published by Fayard. This book was released on 2003-11-26 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vouloir dépeindre toutes les sociétés qui parsemaient l’ancien Empire romain d’Occident, en y ajoutant l’Irlande et la Scandinavie qui ne virent jamais un seul légionnaire, depuis l’invasion des Lombards en 568 jusqu’à celle des Vikings à la fin du ixe siècle relève du tour de force. Cet ouvrage analyse donc la juxtaposition de sociétés païennes encore tribales à côté ou dans des sociétés chrétiennes avec ou sans Etat. Le rapport du religieux au social et du politique au social permet d’expliquer qu’à travers quatre siècles ces sociétés ont été continuellement en mouvement, connaissant, ici, des phases de progrès, là, des phases de régression. Il fallait ainsi faire le tour de ces sociétés avant d’en venir au royaume des Francs en sa première création sociale, celle des Mérovingiens, puis en son second essai, celui des Carolingiens, qui s’est voulu un retour à la Rome antique et à son empire. Ainsi passe-t-on insensiblement, d’une unité perdue, par des différences prononcées telles que l’échec espagnol, la réussite lombarde, la difficile affirmation anglo-saxonne, la supériorité navale scandinave, pour aboutir à ce pôle carolingien. Il attire à lui, par sa synthèse originale et ses liens sociaux, romains, germaniques et chrétiens, toutes les autres sociétés. Une chrétienté sacrale fera naître les racines de l’Europe. Comment y est-elle parvenue ?

Book excerpt: Dans l'histoire de l'Europe, le Moyen Âge (ou période médiévale) a duré du Ve au XVe siècle. Cela a commencé avec la chute de l'empire romain d'Occident et a fusionné avec la Renaissance et l'âge de la découverte. Le Moyen Âge est la période médiane des trois divisions traditionnelles de l’histoire occidentale: l’antiquité classique, la période médiévale et la période moderne. Au cours de cette longue période de mille ans, il y a eu toutes sortes d'événements et de processus très différents les uns des autres, différenciés temporellement et géographiquement, répondant à la fois à des influences mutuelles avec d'autres civilisations et espaces et à des dynamiques internes. Nombre d'entre eux avaient une grande projection sur l'avenir, entre autres ceux qui ont jeté les bases du développement de l'expansion européenne ultérieure et du développement d'agents sociaux qui ont développé une société essentiellement rurale mais ont assisté à la naissance d'une vie urbaine naissante. et une bourgeoisie qui finira par développer le capitalisme.
Download or read book Why Europe written by Michael Mitterauer and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-07-15 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why did capitalism and colonialism arise in Europe and not elsewhere? Why were parliamentarian and democratic forms of government founded there? What factors led to Europe’s unique position in shaping the world? Thoroughly researched and persuasively argued, Why Europe? tackles these classic questions with illuminating results. Michael Mitterauer traces the roots of Europe’s singularity to the medieval era, specifically to developments in agriculture. While most historians have located the beginning of Europe’s special path in the rise of state power in the modern era, Mitterauer establishes its origins in rye and oats. These new crops played a decisive role in remaking the European family, he contends, spurring the rise of individualism and softening the constraints of patriarchy. Mitterauer reaches these conclusions by comparing Europe with other cultures, especially China and the Islamic world, while surveying the most important characteristics of European society as they took shape from the decline of the Roman empire to the invention of the printing press. Along the way, Why Europe? offers up a dazzling series of novel hypotheses to explain the unique evolution of European culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The exploits of Marco Polo and Eric the Red are well-known today, but less-known are the many other explorers of the time and the extent of medieval European contact with other continents. Between 1000 and 1500, world trade and travel flourished as never before as Europe looked for new worlds to explore and conquer. This detailed introductory survey draws on a large and controversial body of evidence to chart the medieval European tradition of expansion, exploring its roots in Classical ideas of the world and tracing its influence on the famous voyages of the Renaissance. Phillips also provides fascinating discussion of the myths and hoaxes surrounding medieval exploration.
