Book excerpt: Voici enfin réédité le chef-d'oeuvre de Roger Dion, qui a révolutionné l'approche traditionnelle de l'histoire et de la géographie viticoles. Non, la qualité des vins de France ne tient pas seulement à celle des terroirs, ni à celle des cépages. Elle dépend surtout de la position géographique des vignobles par rapport aux marchés, des goûts et des attentes des clients. Les crus classés de Bordeaux? Ils doivent leur richesse à la stratégie commerciale des Anglais, qui ont cherché dès le Moyen Âge des produits de qualité pour un marché formé de princes et de négociants. Les grandes appellations de Bourgogne? Elles s'expliquent par les exigences de la cour des ducs de Bourgogne à Dijon. Le nez frais et ouvert des Côtes-du-Rhône septentrionales, dominé par de subtiles notes épicées? Il doit son originalité aux attentes de la bourgeoisie lyonnaise. Le succès du Champagne? Il résulte d'une invention anglaise qui a connu une grande vogue dans la haute société britannique et française. À l'inverse, le Languedoc a mis du temps à produire des vins de qualité car la région a connu des difficultés à l'export: ses péniches qui descendaient le Canal du Midi étaient bloquées avant Bordeaux... Pour Roger Dion, le terroir est un " fait social et non géologique ", une construction historique avant toute chose. Une ode amoureuse aux terroirs des vins de France et aux hommes qui les façonnèrent. La référence inégalée pour comprendre la grande aventure des vignobles et du vin français.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Printemps 1919. Il y a un siècle. La France sort à peine d’une guerre dévastatrice qui a profondément bouleversé le pays, saigné sa population, ruiné son économie et durablement affecté ses valeurs. Alors que le pays accueille à Paris la grande conférence de la Paix qui doit asseoir le nouvel ordre international, le président de la République Raymond Poincaré promulgue une loi aussi inédite qu’inattendue, instaurant une reconfiguration complète des vignobles français. Désormais, c’est par une « appellation d’origine » que les producteurs pourront identifier leurs vins en revendiquant devant les tribunaux la délimitation géographique des vignes dont ils sont issus. Cette loi du 6 mai 1919 constitue la matrice du paysage vitivinicole jusqu’à nos jours. En rompant avec les dispositions libérales antérieures, principalement bâties sur les usages du commerce et de la marque, elle donne naissance au modèle, devenu par la suite triomphant, des vins dits de « terroir ». Surprenante et inattendue, cette histoire est celle de l’émergence et de la promotion de la qualité du vin au fil d’un siècle d’histoire. Elle est également celle d’une mise en ordre des vignobles français à travers une définition alors très novatrice et révolutionnaire des vins. Un siècle plus tard, ce retour inédit sur la genèse des vins d’appellations d’origine, devenus « vins de terroir », nous offre les clefs de compréhension d’un système vitivinicole qui s’est depuis imposé à toute l’Europe et a largement concouru au succès des vins français partout dans le monde.
Download or read book An Historical Geography of France written by Xavier de Planhol and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1994-03-17 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this 1994 book, Xavier de Planhol and Paul Claval, two of France's leading scholars in the field, trace the historical geography of their country from its roots in the Roman province of Gaul to the 1990s. They demonstrate how, for centuries, France was little more than an ideological concept, despite its natural physical boundaries and long territorial history. They examine the relatively late development of a more complex territorial geography, involving political, religious, cultural, agricultural and industrial unities and diversities. The conclusion reached is that only in the twentieth century had France achieved a profound territorial unity and only now are the fragmentations of the past being overwritten.
Download or read book The Sober Revolution written by Joseph Bohling and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-12-15 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Burgundy, Bordeaux, Champagne. The names of these and other French regions bring to mind time-honored winemaking practices. Yet the link between wine and place, in French known as terroir, was not a given. In The Sober Revolution, Joseph Bohling inverts our understanding of French wine history by revealing a modern connection between wine and place, one with profound ties to such diverse and sometimes unlikely issues as alcoholism, drunk driving, regional tourism, Algeria’s independence from French rule, and integration into the European Economic Community. In the 1930s, cheap, mass-produced wines from the Languedoc region of southern France and French Algeria dominated French markets. Artisanal wine producers, worried about the impact of these "inferior" products on the reputation of their wines, created a system of regional appellation labeling to reform the industry in their favor by linking quality to the place of origin. At the same time, the loss of Algeria, once the world’s largest wine exporter, forced the industry to rethink wine production. Over several decades, appellation producers were joined by technocrats, public health activists, tourism boosters, and other dynamic economic actors who blamed cheap industrial wine for hindering efforts to modernize France. Today, scholars, food activists, and wine enthusiasts see the appellation system as a counterweight to globalization and industrial food. But, as The Sober Revolution reveals, French efforts to localize wine and integrate into global markets were not antagonistic but instead mutually dependent. The time-honored winemaking practices that we associate with a pastoral vision of traditional France were in fact a strategy deployed by the wine industry to meet the challenges and opportunities of the post-1945 international economy. France’s luxury wine producers were more market savvy than we realize.
Download or read book Common Land Wine and the French Revolution written by Noelle Plack and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-23 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent revisionist history has questioned the degree of social and economic change attributable to the French Revolution. Some historians have also claimed that the Revolution was primarily an urban affair with little relevance to the rural masses. This book tests these ideas by examining the Revolutionary, Napoleonic and Restoration attempts to transform the tenure of communal land in one region of southern France; the department of the Gard. By analysing the results of the legislative attempts to privatize common land, this study highlights how the Revolution's agrarian policy profoundly affected French rural society and the economy. Not only did some members of the rural community, mainly small-holding peasants, increase their land holdings, but certain sectors of agriculture were also transformed; these findings shed light on the growth in viticulture in the south of France before the monocultural revolution of the 1850s. The privatization of common land, alongside the abolition of feudalism and the transformation of judicial institutions, were key aspects of the Revolution in the countryside. This detailed study demonstrates that the legislative process was not a top-down procedure, but an interaction between a state and its citizens. It is an important contribution to the new social history of the French Revolution and will appeal to economic and social historians, as well as historical geographers.

Download or read book The Hundred Years War Volume 1 written by Jonathan Sumption and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 1999-09-29 with total page 676 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What history records as the Hundred Years War was in fact a succession of destructive conflicts, separated by tense intervals of truce and dishonest and impermanent peace treaties, and one of the central events in the history of England and France. It laid the foundations of France's national consciousness, even while destroying the prosperity and political preeminence which France had once enjoyed. It formed the nation's institutions, creating the germ of the absolute state of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In England, it brought intense effort and suffering, a powerful tide of patriotism, great fortune succeeded by bankruptcy, disintegration, and utter defeat. The war also brought turmoil and ruin to neighboring Scotland, Germany, Italy, and Spain.
