Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage monumental, conçu par les meilleurs spécialistes sous la direction de Jean-Marie Moeglin, propose la description complète d'un conflit séculaire qui structura l'histoire de deux nations, la France et la Grande-Bretagne, entre le XIVe et le XVe siècles. Cet ouvrage monumental, conçu par les meilleurs spécialistes français et étrangers sous la direction de Jean-Marie Moeglin, offre le tableau le plus complet qui soit d'un conflit séculaire qui structura l'histoire de deux nations, la France et l'Angleterre, entre le XIVe et le XVe siècle. La guerre de Cent Ans a longtemps souffert d'une conception historiographique ancienne et étriquée ; on l'a décrite comme une suite plus ou moins erratique de batailles ; on y a vu de manière anachronique le choc de deux sortes d'impérialismes, un affrontement pour la prépondérance de deux États-nations avant la lettre, la France et l'Angleterre. Il y fallait une révision d'ensemble. C'est ici chose faite. Ce Dictionnaire donne une vision nouvelle de la guerre de Cent Ans, née d'une rivalité entre deux rois dont l'un réclamait une couronne que l'autre se serait appropriée sans droit. Autour de cette querelle s'agrégeait une multitude d'autres affrontements locaux. Cette logique a fait de la guerre de Cent Ans un épisode dans lequel les liens personnels, les affaires d'honneur blessé et de réclamations obstinées de terres et de droits, les haines recuites transmises de génération en génération occupaient le devant de la scène. L'ouvrage montre comment des conflits périphériques se greffant sur le conflit central entre deux rois puissants et la nécessité de leur donner une légitimation politique ont amené les royaumes de France et d'Angleterre à se transformer en États administrativement organisés, militarisés et dotés d'une idéologie cohérente au sein de laquelle l'obéissance au roi légitime devenait une vertu première. Scientifiquement rigoureux, ce Dictionnaire propose, au-delà du mythe qu'elle a suscité, une histoire totale de la guerre de Cent Ans, devenue partie intégrante de notre imaginaire national.

Download or read book Prisoners of War in the Hundred Years War written by Rémy Ambühl and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-01-17 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The status of prisoners of war was firmly rooted in the practice of ransoming in the Middle Ages. By the opening stages of the Hundred Years War, ransoming had become widespread among the knightly community, and the crown had already begun to exercise tighter control over the practice of war. This led to tensions between public and private interests over ransoms and prisoners of war. Historians have long emphasised the significance of the French and English crowns' interference in the issue of prisoners of war, but this original and stimulating study questions whether they have been too influenced by the state-centred nature of most surviving sources. Based on extensive archival research, this book tests customs, laws and theory against the individual experiences of captors and prisoners during the Hundred Years War, to evoke their world in all its complexity.

Download or read book Playing the Middle Ages written by Robert Houghton and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-08-24 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Middle Ages have provided rich source material for physical and digital games from Dungeons and Dragons to Assassin's Creed. This volume addresses the many ways in which different formats and genre of games represent the period. It considers the restrictions placed on these representations by the mechanical and gameplay requirements of the medium and by audience expectations of these products and the period, highlighting innovative attempts to overcome these limitations through game design and play. Playing the Middle Ages considers a number of important and timely issues within the field including: one, the connection between medieval games and political nationalistic rhetoric; two, trends in the presentation of religion, warfare and other aspects of medieval society and their connection to modern culture; three, the problematic representations of race; and four, the place of gender and sexuality within these games and the broader gaming community. The book draws on the experience of a wide-ranging and international group of academics across disciplines and from games designers. Through this combination of expertise, it provides a unique perspective on the representation of the Middle Ages in modern games and drives key discussions in the fields of history and game design.

Download or read book The Hundred Years War Vol 5 written by Jonathan Sumption and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2023-08-29 with total page 837 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The eagerly anticipated final volume in Jonathan Sumption's prize-winning history of the Hundred Years War, 'one of the great historical undertakings of our age' (Dan Jones, Sunday Times). Triumph and Illusion is the final volume of Jonathan Sumption's epic history of the Hundred Years War. It tells the story of the collapse of the English dream of conquest, from the opening years of the reign of Henry VI, when the battles of Cravant and Verneuil consolidated their control of most of northern France, to the loss of all of England's continental dominions except Calais thirty years later. This sudden reversal of fortune was a seminal event in the history of the two principal nation-states of western Europe. It brought to an end four centuries of the English dynasty's presence in France, separating two countries whose fates had once been closely intertwined. It created a new sense of national identity in both countries. The legacy of these events would influence their divergent prospects for centuries to come. Behind the clash of arms stood some of the most remarkable personalities of the age: the Duke of Bedford, the English Regent who ruled much of France from Paris and Rouen; Charles VII of France, underrated in both countries, who patiently rebuilt his kingdom after the disasters of his early years; the captains who populate the pages of Shakespeare - Fastolf, Montagu, Talbot, Dunois and, above all, the extraordinary figure of Joan of Arc, who changed the course of the war in a few weeks at the age of seventeen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Origin and Development of the Moral Ideas is a book by а philosopher Edvard Westermarck. It is one of his main works and a monumental classics study in its field. At the beginning of this book, Westermarck asks why different cultures have different moral views. To answer this question, he decided to acquire first-hand knowledge of the folklore of a non-European people. Thus, he spent four years in Morocco collecting anthropological data, familiarizing himself with the native way of thinking, and understanding local customs. In the result he concluded, he concluded that there is a close connection between moral opinions and religious beliefs.
