Book Children in the Middle Ages

Download or read book Children in the Middle Ages written by Danièle Alexandre-Bidon and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What can we know of the children of the Middle Ages? It is commonly thought that children were of little interest to medieval adults for documentation on childhood is supposedly rare and fragmentary. Daniele Alexandre-Bidon and Didier Lett challenge this assumption in this learned and lively book. Drawing from a wide range of sources -- from archaeological finds to romances from miracle accounts to law codes -- they bring together many glimpses of children in order to form a composite picture. By examining the existence of children in various contexts -- wars, epidemics, the famines that mark both the beginning and end of the Middle Ages -- the authors trace an evolution in the perception of childhood. Children in the Middle Ages offers a multifaceted image of medieval childhood in all the countries of present-day Europe and within all levels of medieval society, from the peasant girl who longed to read to the apprentice scribe doodling pictures on the margins of the manuscript he copied to the young duke of berry, whose bedroom was redecorated each year at Easter, going from red to green, the color of spring. The authors consider children not only within the context the family life, but within the supporting structures of the society -- in school, in business, in the monastery, in extened or foster families. They further demonstrate that despite often difficult living conditions, the great majority of children were surrounded with affection.

  • Publisher : Hachette

  • Pages : 280 pages

Download or read book Les enfants au Moyen ge written by Danièle Alexandre-Bidon and published by Hachette. This book was released on 1997 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En mille ans de Moyen Age, le sentiment de l'enfance a évolué et l'enfant a trouvé une place centrale dans la société chrétienne. Ce livre entend donner une image plurielle de l'enfance médiévale : non seulement l'enfance noble ou heureuse, mais aussi celle des plus nombreux, les paysans, les artisans, sans oublier les pauvres et les victimes de la violence adulte. La famille médiévale apparaît sous un jour nouveau : le rôle majeur du père et des aîné(e)s, longtemps sous-estimé au profit de celui de la mère, retrouve sa juste place ; l'adolescence, mal connue jusqu'alors, est prise en considération. Conséquence de la forte mortalité, la famille est fréquemment recomposée : l'enfant grandit souvent avec des beaux-parents, des familles d'accueil remplacent parfois la famille naturelle car la circulation des jeunes est de règle, qu'ils partent au monastère, en apprentissage, au collège ou en voyage... L'histoire de l'enfance sort enfin des langes.

Book Abandoned Children

Download or read book Abandoned Children written by Rachel G. Fuchs and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1984-01-01 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In nineteenth-century France, parents abandoned their children in overwhelming numbers--up to 20 percent of live births in the Parisian area. The infants were left at state-run homes and were then transferred to rural wet nurses and foster parents. Their chances of survival were slim, but with alterations in state policy, economic and medical development, and changing attitudes toward children and the family, their chances had significantly improved by the end of the century. Rachel Fuchs has drawn on newly discovered archival sources and previously untapped documents of the Paris foundling home in order to depict the actual conditions of abandoned children and to reveal the bureaucratic and political response. This study traces the evolution of French social policy from early attempts to limit welfare to later efforts to increase social programs and influence family life. Abandoned Children illuminates in detail the family life of nineteenth-century French poor. It shows how French social policy with respect to abandoned children sought to create an economically useful and politically neutral underclass out of a segment of the population that might otherwise have been an economic drain and a potential political threat.

  • Publisher : University of Ottawa Press
  • Release : 1994
  • ISBN : 2760303632
  • Pages : 302 pages

Download or read book De France en Nouvelle France written by Cornelius J. Jaenen and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spécialiste des élites politiques de la Nouvelle-France, et de leurs origines familiales et sociales, le professeur Jean-Claude Dubé, de l'Université d'Ottawa, s'est fait connaître par l'originalité de ses travaux et son double intérêt pour la France de l'Ancien Régime et la colonie. Conçu dans un perspective large qui est celle de Jean-Claude Dubé lui-même, cet ouvrage est celui d'un groupe d'amis qui, des deux côtés de l'Atlantique, ont voulu lui rendre hommage en lui offrant une série d'études de choix. S'étendant du politique au religieux, ces contributions tantôt neuves, tantôt longuement mûries et parfois provocantes, permettent en même temps d'établir des relations entre les deux sociétés métropolitaine et coloniale.

Book Pluralism in the Middle Ages

Download or read book Pluralism in the Middle Ages written by Ragnhild Johnsrud Zorgati and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-12 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The challenges of cultural and religious diversity that face European and American societies today are not a new phenomenon. People in the Middle Ages lived in pluralistic societies, and they found highly interesting ways of dealing with religious and cultural diversity. While religious and political authorities commanded people to stick to their kind, some people explored the borderland between religious identities. In medieval Iberia, Christians and Muslims challenged the legal authorities’ prohibitions against crossing religious and cultural boundaries when they engaged in mixed marriages between Muslims and Christians or converted from one religion to the other. By examining the topics of conversion and mixed marriages in legal texts of Muslim and Christian origin, Pluralism in the Middle Ages explores the construction of boundaries as well as the reasons explaining such constructions. It demonstrates that the religious and social boundaries were not static, nor were they similarly defined by Islamic and Christian medieval cultures. Moreover, the book argues that Muslims and Christians in medieval Iberia did not constitute clearly separated groups, since various categories of people haunted the boundaries between them: false converts employing taqiya strategy (taking on an outward Christian identity while practicing Islam in secret), those engaged in mixed marriages or interreligious sexual relations (and their children), and converts, whose conversion may be perceived as sincere or insincere, total or partial.
