Book Synopsis Comprendre le XXe siècle français by : Jean-François Sirinelli
Download or read book Comprendre le XXe siècle français written by Jean-François Sirinelli and published by Fayard. This book was released on 2005-09-07 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le parcours d'un historien a son métabolisme propre, qu'il n'est négligeable ni pour l'intéressé ni pour la discipline concernée de reconstituer quand le déroulement d'une trajectoire est déjà suffisamment large pour se prêter à une mise en perspective historiographique dont la comparaison avec d'autres peut être utile et que, parallèlement, le temps qui reste s'est progressivement substitué au temps qui passe et incite à de tels regards personnels dans le rétroviseur, regards dictés non par la possible mélancolie mais par la nécessité de faire le point pour maintenir ou infléchir le cap. Un itinéraire intellectuel n'est non seulement jamais un cap fixé dès le départ, mais, de surcroît, son tracé obéit à des logiques complexes où le hasard le dispute parfois à la nécessité et où les bifur-cations, bien souvent, ne sont pas programmées. C'est l'un des objets de ce livre que d'examiner comment un historien souhaitant, au fil du dernier quart du xxe siècle, réfléchir sur ce siècle tout entier, loin de se contenter de suivre le sillon initial, a dû procéder tout à la fois par élargissement et par glissement. Elargissement chronologique depuis les premiers travaux consacrés à l'entre-deux-guerres et glissement épistémologique, avec le constat, bientôt pleinement assumé, que le croisement des approches culturelle et politique était une piste essentielle pour comprendre et penser le xxe siècle français. J.-F. S.
Book Synopsis Cultural History in France by : Evelyne Cohen
Download or read book Cultural History in France written by Evelyne Cohen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-27 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, which gathers contributions presented at the annual conferences of l'Association pour le développement de l'histoire culturelle (ADHC), questions the subjects and boundaries of cultural history in France – with regard to neighboring approaches such as cultural studies, media studies, and gender studies – to elaborate a "social history of representations." Historians, philosophers and sociologists address a large variety of topics and methodological proposals. Definitions, objects and actors, memories and cultural transfers: this book depicts the major questions that underlie the historical debate at the beginning of the 21st century.
Book Synopsis A Divided Republic by : Emile Chabal
Download or read book A Divided Republic written by Emile Chabal and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-04-02 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an original and sophisticated historical interpretation of contemporary French political culture. Until now, there have been few attempts to understand the political consequences of the profound geopolitical, intellectual and economic changes that France has undergone since the 1970s. However, Emile Chabal's detailed study shows how passionate debates over citizenship, immigration, colonial memory, the reform of the state and the historiography of modern France have galvanised the French elite and created new spaces for discussion and disagreement. Many of these debates have coalesced around two political languages - republicanism and liberalism - both of which structure the historical imagination and the symbolic vocabulary of French political actors. The tension between these two political languages has become the central battleground of contemporary French politics. It is around these two poles that politicians, intellectuals and members of France's vast civil society have tried to negotiate the formidable challenges of ideological uncertainty and a renewed sense of global insecurity.
Book Synopsis La historia cultural by : Philippe Poirrier
Download or read book La historia cultural written by Philippe Poirrier and published by Universitat de València. This book was released on 2015-05-16 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Desde hace dos o tres décadas la historia cultural ocupa un lugar preferente en la escena historiográfica, aunque con desfases cronológicos y distintas modalidades dependiendo de las circunstancias nacionales y, en este sentido, se impone una aproximación comparativa. El presente volumen pretende inscribirse en esta perspectiva, preguntándose por la realidad de un «giro cultural» en la historiografía mundial. Los numerosos colaboradores han aceptado responder a un plan de trabajo en el que, partiendo de la situación historiográfica de cada país, se analicen las modalidades de surgimiento y de estructuración de la historia cultural. La meta buscada no es normativa y contempla un planteamiento que combina el análisis de las obras, las singularidades de las coyunturas historiográficas y la organización de los mercados universitarios.
Book Synopsis The Latest Catastrophe by : Henry Rousso
Download or read book The Latest Catastrophe written by Henry Rousso and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2016-07-06 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The writing of recent history tends to be deeply marked by conflict, by personal and collective struggles rooted in horrific traumas and bitter controversies. Frequently, today’s historians can find themselves researching the same events that they themselves lived through. This book reflects on the concept and practices of what is called “contemporary history,” a history of the present time, and identifies special tensions in the field between knowledge and experience, distance and proximity, and objectivity and subjectivity. Henry Rousso addresses the rise of contemporary history and the relations of present-day societies to their past, especially their legacies of political violence. Focusing on France, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States, he shows that for contemporary historians, the recent past has become a problem to be solved. No longer unfolding as a series of traditions to be respected or a set of knowledge to be transmitted and built upon, history today is treated as a constant act of mourning or memory, an attempt to atone. Historians must also negotiate with strife within this field, as older scholars who may have lived through events clash with younger historians who also claim to understand the experiences. Ultimately, The Latest Catastrophe shows how historians, at times against their will, have themselves become actors in a history still being made.

Download or read book Mnemosyne and Mars written by Manuel Bragança and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-01-13 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume will be of interest to everyone seeking to understand the relationship between war as an historical narrative and its representation in the arts and in culture, notably in literature, film, theatre and music. More specifically, it will be of the greatest interest to undergraduates, postgraduates, researchers and academics in a wide range of disciplines, including literary studies, film and drama studies, music, and history. The Introduction, by Jay Winter, sets the context, particularly with reference to the First World War, while the Conclusion summarises the significance of the research undertaken and its value for future research. This book will also have an impact on writers, publishers and organizers of exhibitions, museums, memorial sites and monuments whose influence in the field of war and memory has been increasing steadily in recent years. The imminent celebrations and commemorations pertaining to the Great War, beginning in 2014, together with the imminence of the seventieth anniversary of the end of the Second World War in 2015, will provide additional stimuli to public attention in this area over the next few years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2005, following the death of two youths of African origin, France erupted in a wave of violent protest. More than 10,000 automobiles were burned or stoned, hundreds of public buildings were vandalized or burned to the ground, and hundreds of people were injured. Charles Tshimanga, Didier Gondola, Peter J. Bloom, and a group of international scholars seek to understand the causes and consequences of these momentous events, while examining how the concept of Frenchness has been reshaped by the African diaspora in France and the colonial legacy.
Book Synopsis Why There Is No Poststructuralism in France by : Johannes Angermuller
Download or read book Why There Is No Poststructuralism in France written by Johannes Angermuller and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-08 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: French thinkers such as Lacan and Derrida are often labelled as representatives of 'poststructuralism' in the Anglophone world. However in France, where their work originated, such a category has never gained currency; this group of theorists were never perceived as a coherent intellectual group or movement. Outlining the institutional contexts, affinities, and rivalries of, among others, Althusser, Lacan, Barthes, Foucault, Derrida and Kristeva, Why There is No Poststructuralism in France insightfully traces the evolution of the French intellectual field after the war and Poststructuralism as a phenomenon. By critically embracing Bourdieu's concept of intellectual field, Angermuller places French Theory both in the specific material conditions of its production and the social and historical contexts of its reception, accounting for a particularly creative moment in French intellectual life which continues to inform the theoretical imaginary of our time.

Book Synopsis Les "XXe siècle" français by : Ludivine Bantigny
Download or read book Les "XXe siècle" français written by Ludivine Bantigny and published by Ellipses Marketing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le XXe siècle aura été marqué par des événements et des changements d'une intensité que la France n'avait pas connue depuis longtemps. D'abord dominée par la guerre ou le péril de la guerre, de part en part traversée par les conflits mondiaux et coloniaux, de la " Grande Guerre " à la guerre d'Algérie, l'histoire récente de la France paraît à présent pacifiée. Elle s'inscrit désormais dans une perspective européenne, dont la construction, cependant, se révèle parfois difficile. Cette histoire d'un siècle se décline, fondamentalement, au pluriel. Par-delà l'originalité de la vie politique française, la société, les moeurs, les pratiques culturelles se sont profondément modifiées. Pareilles mutations, radicales, incitent à parler des " XXe siècle " français. Soucieux de s'adresser à un public d'étudiants découvrant ou redécouvrant cette période, l'ouvrage décrit et explique les grands bouleversements qui ont émaillé ce siècle, en variant les échelles et en prenant la mesure des évolutions à court, moyen et long terme. Il aborde les principales problématiques et les débats qui marquent l'écriture de l'histoire contemporaine aujourd'hui. La bibliographie est aussi une invitation à découvrir les renouvellements actuels de l'historiographie.

Book Synopsis French Liberalism and Imperialism in the Age of Napoleon III by : Miquel de la Rosa
Download or read book French Liberalism and Imperialism in the Age of Napoleon III written by Miquel de la Rosa and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-02-25 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the interplay between liberalism and imperialism in Second Empire France. By examining the political dimension of imperial expansion and the power of words in shaping public opinion, it sheds light on the ways in which liberal ideas developed in the nineteenth century. In contrast to Britain, French imperialism in the third quarter of the nineteenth century was fostered by a Bonapartist regime that liberals needed to fight in order to build their own political brand. The author argues that the 1860s were not so much a period of ‘liberal empire’ in France as has traditionally been suggested, since liberals were in fact more conveyers of political change rather than supporters of the regime. To demonstrate how French liberals succeeded in configuring an alternative political option, the book explores their attitudes to the expanding colonial empire of Napoleon III in the 1850s and 60s through the analysis of parliamentary debates, the press and published texts. Providing three in-depth case studies on Bonapartist expansion projects in Algeria, Cochinchina and Mexico, the book provides new insights on the foundations of the liberal position on imperialism, and the intellectual outlooks and belief systems that informed these views. Analysing discourses and ideas, as opposed to facts and policies, this book presents a new perspective on the nature of the French Second Empire and illustrates how this shaped a specific liberal political culture in France.
Book Synopsis The Oxford Handbook of Modern French Philosophy by :
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Modern French Philosophy written by and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024-06-25 with total page 769 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: French philosophy is an internationally celebrated national philosophical tradition, and this Oxford Handbook offers a comprehensive approach to its history since 1800. The Handbook features essays written by renowned international specialists, illuminating key movements and positions, themes and thinkers in nineteenth-, twentieth- and even twenty-first-century French philosophy. The volume takes into account developments in recent historical scholarship by broadening the notion of Modern French Philosophy in two ways. Whereas recent approaches in the field have often ignored early nineteenth-century developments, this volume offers comprehensive treatment of French thought of this period in order to grasp better later developments. Moreover, the volume extends the canon at the other end of the period of Modern French Philosophy by including work on philosophers who have come to prominence only in the last ten or twenty years. The volume takes 'French philosophy' in a broad sense to include all philosophy carried out in France over the last 200 years, and it illuminates the institutional and cultural background of this national philosophical tradition in such a way as to provide a fuller and more comprehensive understanding of its unity and of its more famous moments in the twentieth century.
