Download or read book L Europe la d couverte du monde written by Jean-Pierre Duteil and published by Armand Colin. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Envisagée dans son sens le plus restrictif, la période des Grandes Découvertes ne s'étend que sur trois décennies, de 1492 à 1522. Elle englobe là les trois grands voyages emblématiques : Christophe Colomb vers l'Amérique, Vasco de Gama vers l'Inde, et la première circumnavigation, accomplie par le Portugais Magellan au service de l'Espagne. Mais les débuts de la découverte du monde par les Européens remontent plus loin dans le passé : dès le 13e siècle, missionnaires et marchands s'aventurent sur les pistes caravanières qui traversent l'Eurasie, et au 14e siècle des navigateurs atteignent les Canaries, légendaires " îles fortunées " de l'Antiquité. Au début du 17e siècle, le monde n'a pas été entièrement reconnu, mais les premiers empires coloniaux se sont mis en place, et la géographie, qui décrit désormais quatre continents, se trouve bouleversée. Ce livre s'attache à montrer la liaison entre les découvertes proprement dites et les progrès des conceptions astronomiques, cartographiques et techniques qui les rendent possibles. Il essaie également d'éclairer les premiers rapports entre les Européens et les peuples " découverts ".

Download or read book Montesquieu s The Spirit of the Laws written by and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2024-02-06 with total page 1018 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spirit of the Laws not only systematizes the foundational ideas of “separation of powers” and “balances and checks,” it provides the decisive response to the question of whether power in the nation-state can be limited in the aftermath of the Westphalian settlement of 1648. It describes a civilizational change through which power becomes domesticated, with built-in resistance to attempts to absolutize (or make total) political power. As such, it is the Bible of modern politics, now made more accessible to English readers than it ever has been.
Download or read book L Europe Et Le Monde Colonial Au XVIIIe Si cle written by Luigi Delia and published by Honoré Champion. This book was released on 2013 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Variant les approches et les contextes, les contributions de ce volume étudient les échanges, les rapports de pouvoir et de domination, les médiations et les transformations, les interactions et les transferts culturels entre les États européens et leurs colonies dans les espaces américains et asiatiques à l’âge des Lumières. Le phénomène colonial a, par son caractère protéiforme, conduit à croiser les regards dans un esprit d’interdisciplinarité. Autour de l’idée de représentation sont réunies des enquêtes dont l’interrogation centrale relève souvent d’une scénographie du « colonial » comme origine, lieu et résultat des expressions verbales ou visuelles. Il s’agit d’éclairer ce que peuvent recouvrir ces représentations liées pour la plupart à la question de l’identité. Elles permettent une étude directe – sinon exhaustive – des rapports socio-culturels et juridico-politiques entre centre et périphérie."--BACK COVER.

Download or read book La D couverte de l le Frivole by Gabriel Fran ois Coyer written by Jean-Alexandre Perras and published by MHRA. This book was released on 2022-09-16 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Découverte de l’île Frivole (1751) se présente comme un épisode inédit du Voyage autour du monde de l’amiral anglais George Anson et de son équipage. Le texte décrit leurs aventures sur une île étrange, dont les habitants, nommés Frivolites, sont tout entiers occupés de modes, de coiffures, de romans et de desserts historiés. Cette parodie chatoyante présente un tableau sévère mais enjoué de la France des premières années du siècle de Louis XV. Elle résonne avec les pages les plus critiques de Jean-Jacques Rousseau contre le luxe et la mollesse du siècle, ou celles, ironiques, que Voltaire fit paraître contre ses compatriotes. Elle n’épargne pas non plus les Anglais, alors que l’anglomanie bat son plein. Ce volume constitue la première édition critique bilingue d’un texte qui a fait en son temps beaucoup de bruit, tant en France qu’en Angleterre. La Découverte de l’île Frivole (1751) is presented as a supplement to George Anson’s Voyage Round the World, and recounts the adventures of the English admiral and his crew on a strange island whose inhabitants, the Frivolians, are devoted to fashion, hairstyles, novels, and fancy desserts. This tale is at once both playful and cynical and its biting irony spares neither the reputation of France nor that of England. It resonates with the most critical attacks by Jean-Jacques Rousseau against luxury and refinement, or those of Voltaire against his compatriots. This volume provides the first bilingual critical edition of a text that, in its time, caused a stir both in France and in England.
Download or read book About Europe written by Denis Guénoun and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2013-02-20 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of the universal was born in the lands we now call Europe, yet it is precisely the universal that is Europe's undoing. All European politics is caught in a tension: to assert a European identity is to be open to multiplicity, but this very openness could dissolve Europe as such. This book reflects on Europe and its changing boundaries over the span of twenty centuries. A work of philosophy, it consistently draws on concrete events. From ancient Greece and Rome, to Christianity, to the Reformation, to the national revolutions of the twentieth century, what we today call "Europe" has been a succession of projects in the name of ecclesia or community. Empire, Church, and EU: all have been constructed in contrast to an Oriental "other." The stakes of Europe, then, are as much metaphysical as political. Redefining a series of key concepts such as world, place, transportation, and the common, this book sheds light on Europe as process by engaging with the most significant philosophical debates on the subject, including the work of Marx, Husserl, Heidegger, Patočka, and Nancy.
