New Trends in Feminine Spirituality The Holy Women of Liege and their Impact.
Hardback, XIV+350 p., 160 x 245 mm. ISBN 9782503507682. The essays in this volume examine not only the beguinage religious life in the southern Low Countries, but also the impact of this movement on later medieval Sweden, England and France, the new modes of influence by women in their religious lives, and the revivals of feminine spirituality. Was there a women's movement in the thirteenth century and is such a question meaningful in its medieval context? Far from being resolved, the issue of whether women had a thirteenth-century renaissance has still decisively to unsettle the periodization of Western European history in twelfth and sixteenth-century humanist renaissances. Herbert Grundmann long ago demonstrated the participation of women in the eremitically-inspired reforming movements of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, and in the production of vernacular literature. Yet it is upon his work that this volume builds, for the diocese of Liege is the key area in this development. It was from Liege that Jacques de Vitry approached the papacy to secure permission for the women of this bishopric of Liege, France and Germany to live together and to promote holiness in each other by mutual example. The seventeen contributors to this volume examine not only the beguine religious life in the southern Low Countries, but also the impact of this movement on later medieval Sweden, England and France, the new modes of influence exerted by women in their religious lives, and the revivals of feminine spirituality in the late medieval West through to contemporary North America. Research does not yet allow for a whole new synthesis, but this volume directs scholars to detailed work on specific localities and persons, with an awareness of the problems and possibilities of wider European comparisons. The contributors are: Jocelyn Wogan-Browne and Marie-Elisabeth Henneau, Anne Blonstein, Else Marie Wiberg Pedersen, Alexandra Barratt, Penny Galloway, Brenda Bolton, Bridget Morris, Marjorie Curry Woods, Carolyne Larrington, Anneke B. Mulder-Bakker, Renate Blumenfeld-Kosinski, Katie Normington, Jane Chance, Ulrike Wiethaus, Luce Irigaray and Antonia Lacey. Languages : English.

rouleaux des morts, monumenta palaeographica medii arvi.
Hardback, 296 p., 103 b/w ill. + 6 colour ill., 30,5 x 44cm ISBN 9782503513645. Du milieu du VIIIe s. a 1536, date de la dissolution des monasteres anglais par Henry VIII, diverses eglises d?Europe occidentale (principalement de Benedictins et de chanoines) eurent coutume de solliciter des prieres pour un/des membre(s) defunt(s) de leur communaute au moyen de brefs ou de rouleaux mortuaires, transmis par des brevigeruli (ou porte-rouleaux). Les brefs mortuaires, reduits souvent a des languettes de parchemin, ecrits en nombre, etaient laisses aux eglises visitees. Quant aux rouleaux mortuaires, ils etaient constitues d?un nombre variable de feuilles de parchemin (le tout pouvant atteindre 30 m de long) ; chacun d?entre eux debutait par un faire-part de deces (ou encyclique) ; a tour de role, les eglises visitees par le porte-rouleau apposaient un accuse de reception (ou titre) ; frequemment, ils etaient opisthographes, c?est a dire ecrits sur les deux faces. L?encyclique peut etre precedee, a partir du XIIIe s., d?une peinture ou de dessins (souvent d?excellente qualite) et suivie, a compter du XIVe s., d?une liste des confraternites conclues par l?eglise expeditrice (sorte de liste-programme pour le porte-rouleau). Si la plupart des brefs mortuaires ont disparu en raison de leur petite taille, les rouleaux des morts ont eux-memes beaucoup souffert au cours des ages, nombre d?entre eux ayant meme ete depeces pour servir de feuilles de garde a des mss. Au total, on ne conserve (en original, par des copies ou des editions anciennes) qu?environ 450 pieces, alors que certainement des milliers ont circule. Les plus anciens originaux connus sont des fragments de la seconde moitie du Xe s. Plusieurs criteres ont prevalu pour le choix des quelque 110 planches presentees. Tout d?abord, bien sur, un critere paleographique, car l?ensemble des ecritures est date et localise avec precision, ou du moins datable avec une fourchette chronologique etroite. On trouvera dans ce volume des ecritures livresques, des mentions avec lettres enclavees (a rapprocher de celles des pages-titres des mss. ou des inscriptions lapidaires) comme des ecritures cursives ou personnelles ; les pieces retenues ont les origines les plus diverses, francaises, anglaises, belges, hollandaises, allemandes, etc. Ensuite, un critere historique : une copie du debut du XIXe s. temoigne de la mise en circulation de rouleaux mortuaires par l?abbaye de Ripoll, malheureusement incendiee peu apres ; ou encore un titre de Noyon montre l?aprete des luttes intercommunautaires a propos des reliques. Egalement, un interet documentaire, comme la charte scellee, tenant lieu de ?« rotulus ?», de l?abbesse de Pielenhofen (Baviere ; 1435). Ou encore, un interet artistique avec la reproduction des magnifiques dessins ornant le debut du rouleau de Lucy de Vere, prieure de Castle Hedingham (Essex ; vers 1230) ou prepares pour le rouleau de John Islip, abbe de Westminster (vers 1532). Dans bien des cas, les itineraires peuvent etre etablis avec une grande precision : une carte retrace celui d?un rouleau mortuaire expedie en 1406 par Saint-Bavon de Gand qui, en 20 mois, recueillit plus de 800 titres d?Amsterdam au nord a Barcelone au sud. Enfin, sont reproduits divers brefs mortuaires, documents a peu pres ignores jusqu?alors. Languages : French, Latin.

Classics in the Medieval and Renaissance Classroom. The Role of Ancient Texts in the Arts Curriculum as Revealed by Surviving Manuscripts and Early Printed Books
Hardback, approx. X+455 pages ., 2 b/w ill., 156 x 234 mm. ISBN 9782503527543. Medievalists and Renaissance specialists contribute to this compelling volume examining how and why the classics of Greek and Latin culture were taught in various Western European curricula (including in England, Scotland, France, Germany, and Italy) from the tenth to the sixteenth centuries. By analysing some of the commentaries, glosses, and paraphrases of these classics that were deployed in medieval and Renaissance classrooms, and by offering greater insight into premodern pedagogic practice, the chapters here emphasize the 'pragmatic' aspects of humanist study. The volume proposes that the classics continued to be studied in the medieval and Renaissance periods not simply for their cultural or 'ornamental' value, but also for utilitarian reasons, for 'life lessons'. Because the volume goes beyond analysing the educational manuals surviving from the premodern period and attempts to elucidate the teaching methodology of the premodern period, it provides a nuanced insight into the formation of the premodern individual. The volume will therefore be of great interest to scholars and students interested in medieval and Renaissance history in general, as well as those interested in the history of educational theory and practice, or in the premodern reception of classical literature.

Old Georgian Palimpsest Codex Vindobonensis georgicus 2
Hardback, XXXVI+323 p., 7 colour ill., 30,5 x 44. ISBN 9782503517131. The present work, starting volume of the new Series Ibero-Caucasica, contains a complete edition of the Old Georgian texts in Asomtavruli script that are preserved in the lower layer of the famous palimpsest Codex Vindobonensis georgicus no. 2 of the Austrian National Library, Vienna. Based on a thorough analysis with the spectral imaging method provided by the MuSiS imaging system, more than 95% of the original content has been deciphered and restored. Of the 13 original manuscripts written in Asomtavruli script, six pertain to the so-called "Khanmeti" period of the Old Georgian tradition extending from the beginning of Georgian literacy in the 5th roughly to the 8th century A.D. The Khanmeti texts range from fragments of early translations of the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke), parts of the Old Testament (Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, Esdras), and the Protevangelium of James to legends of Saints (Cyprianus and Justina, Christina). The post-Khanmeti texts (dating roughly from the 9th-10th centuries) comprise fragments of a Lectionary (lectures from Exodus, Isaiah, the Gospel and the 3rd letter of John, and Acts of Apostles), Old Testament texts (I and II Chronicles), and several homiletic texts (Epiphanius of Cyprus on Measures and Weights, Gregor of Nyssa on the Build of Man a.o.). In the edition, all texts are represented both in a diplomatic transliteration (in Asomtavruli script) and a plain transcription (in modern Mkhedruli script), together with digitally enhanced images of the pages concerned. Additionally, the text passages are contrasted line by line with the most relevant parallels (Old Georgian, Greek, Armenian, Syriac, Latin). The contents of the texts are summarized in several consolidated indexes. Languages : English.

Catherine of Siena The Creation of a Cult
Hardback, approx. X+353 p., 30 b/w ill., 2 b/w line art, 156 x 234 mm. ISBN 9782503544151. Focusing on the critical case of Catherine of Siena (d. 1380), the essays in this volume consider the role of texts, translations and images in various media in constructing and disseminating the cult of a saint in the late Middle Ages. How does one construct a saint and promote a cult beyond the immediate community in which he or she lived? Italian mendicants had accumulated a good deal of experience in dealing with this politically explosive question. The posthumous description of the life of Francis of Assisi (d. 1226) written by the Master General of the order, Bonaventure (d. 1274), could be regarded as paradigmatic in this regard. A similarly massive intervention in the production and diffusion of a cult can be observed in the case of the Dominican tertiary, Catherine of Siena (d. 1380), who in many respects (e.g. the imitation of Christ and her stigmatization) ?competed? with Francis of Assisi. Raymund of Capua (d. 1399), the Master General of the order, established the foundation for the dissemination of the cult by writing the authoritative life, but it was only the following generation that succeeded in establishing and disseminating the cult on a broad basis by means of copies, adaptations, and translations. The question of how to make a cult, which stands at the center of this volume, thus presents itself in terms of the challenge of rewriting a legend for different audiences. The various contributions consider the role, not only of texts in many different vernaculars (Czech, English, French, German, and Italian), but also of images, whether separately or in connection with one another.

St Katherine of Alexandria Texts and Contexts in Western Medieval Europe
Hardback, XIV+257 p., 15 b/w ill., 160 x 245 mm. ISBN 9782503512907. This volume contains an interdisciplinary collection of essays on St Katherine of Alexandria and her followers. St Katherine of Alexandria was one of the most popular saints in Medieval Europe. This book constitutes the first interdisciplinary collection of essays to explore her cult and the range of meanings which St Katherine embodied for her devotees. The essays between them consider a wide range of evidence, from visual representations (wall paintings, manuscript illuminations, stained glass, and seals), to literary texts (lives of the saint, prayers, hymns, devotional manuscripts, and breviaries) as well as documentary evidence (wills, chronicles, ecclesiastical records and antiquarian writings) and the physical remains of churches and chapels dedicated to St Katherine. These sources are interpreted as part of wider manifestations of devotion to the saint in England, France, Italy, Spain, Sweden and Wales. The authors approach the cult from varying disciplinary and methodological perspectives, but all seek to uncover the various religious, social and cultural messages contained within the different versions of St Katherine which these particular texts and contexts offer. The volume as a whole therefore sheds light not only on devotion to St Katherine, but also on a much wider range of issues and ideologies governing the lives of her devotees and the societies in which they lived. Languages : English.

Medieval Translator. Traduire au Moyen Age
Paperback, XXV+466 p., 2 b/w ill., 150 x 230 mm. ISBN 9782503525358. Fundamental to all translation work, the concept of 'displacement' allows one to take into account the multiple successive states inhering in a single text, and to interpret these variations. Translation is, in effect, a form of transfer; more specifically, it involves a movement from one context to another, be it national, social, political, historical, linguistic or religious. The texts examined here illustrate, each in their unique way, the relationship between contextual change and audience. They are also the product of subtle interactions between a variety of elements, the result of which is a 'reinvention' of their respective roles and uses over time. For example, a text intending to entertain may also have educational outcomes; a book of local miracles may attract pilgrims and contribute to the economic life of a monastery; a text and its translations may at some point be appropriated for polemical purposes, while a library of translated texts founded on humanist principals may also serve political ends. Furthermore, each successive adaptation and its accompanying annotations impacts upon the tonality of a text. While this diversity of meanings may inspire some (such as the medieval poet Marie de France), it moreover raises a number of important and difficult questions for the modern translator. How, for example, does one translate the 'harmonics' underlying a series of mystical puns? The 'solution' usually involves a compromise that both enhances and undermines the translated text. This volume presents a selection of twenty-eight papers delivered at the Seventh International Conference dedicated to The Theory and Practice of Translation in the Middle Ages, which took place at the University of Paris III - Nouvelle Sorbonne in July 2004. The period covered by the texts and their translations extends from antiquity to the present day. The literary and critical breadth of these papers, as well as the rigorous interrogation of the modern translation theory, illustrates the remarkable vitality and diversity of current scholarship in this field. Au coeur de toute activite de traduction, le concept de deplacement permet de rendre compte des multiples etats successifs d'un meme texte et d'en interpreter les variations. Toute traduction est en effet une translation, c'est-a-dire un changement d'environnement, que ce dernier soit national, social, politique, historique, linguistique ou ecclesial. Les textes examines ici temoignent chacun a sa maniere des transformations qu'ils ont subies lorsque, changeant de langue, de style ou d'epoque, ils ont change de destinataires. La dynamique qui les traverse se nourrit de subtils cotoiements : un desir legitime de divertir peut fort bien s'accommoder d'une intention didactique ; un recueil de miracles locaux peut attirer des pelerins, contribuant ainsi a la vie economique d'un monastere ; un texte et ses traductions peuvent devenir l'objet d'utilisations polemiques ; se constituer en humaniste une bibliotheque de traductions peut aussi servir un dessein politique. Par ailleurs les transpositions successives et leurs gloses, comme en musique, entrainent des changements de tonalite. Ce 'surplus' de sens qu'encourage Marie de France pourra cependant se heurter a des resistances : comment par exemple preserver d'une langue a l'autre toutes les harmoniques que libere un enchainement de jeux de mots mystiques ... Ainsi l'inevitable compromis qui s'imposera au traducteur sera souvent le choix d'un enrichissement double d'une deperdition. Ce volume presente une selection des communications entendues lors du septieme colloque international consacre a la theorie et la pratique de la traduction des textes au Moyen Age qui s'est tenu a l'Universite de Paris III- Sorbonne Nouvelle en juillet 2004. La periode couverte par ces textes et leurs traductions s'etend de l'Antiquite jusqu'a nos jours. Ce sont au total vingt-huit etudes qui sont ici proposees. La richesse des domaines abordes, la haute technicite des analyses, de meme que la place faite aux questionnements de la traductologie moderne illustrent la remarquable vitalite des etudes actuelles relatives aux multiples aspects de la traduction des textes medievaux. Languages : English, French.

George Eliot and the Discourses of Medievalism
Hardback, X+210 p., 160 x 240 mm. ISBN 9782503507736. In George Eliot's last two novels, Middlemarch (1871-72) and Daniel Deronda (1876), she abandons the realism she had explored and articulated so carefully, most famously in Adam Bede, 'a faithful account of men and things', for an unprecedented return to 'cloud-borne angels, [...] prophets, sibyls, and heroic warriors'. This study addresses Eliot's exploitation of Victorian medievalism by considering the way in which she utilizes the discourses of medievalism, both for their potential for subversiveness and their potential for mediation, to affirm that change is possible socially, culturally, and politically, in her modern contemporary world. The various medieval discourses are revealed as interstices within what initially appears to be a continuation of the realism of her earlier novels. They permit political and cultural readings of a different, and often unexpected, kind to the realist bourgeois values of novels like Adam Bede, and to a lesser extent, Felix Holt. These political and cultural readings reveal a more determined, more obvious feminist and socialist polemic in her two last and possibly greatest novels. Languages : English.

Translating the Sagas Two Hundred Years of Challenge and Response
Hardback, X+221 p., 160 x 240 mm. ISBN 9782503507729. Few speakers of English have ever been able to read the Icelandic sagas in the original language, and published saga translations have played a major role in shaping attitudes towards Viking Age Scandinavia and the great literary achievements of medieval Iceland in the English-speaking world. This book is the first publication to provide an extended examination of the history and development of Icelandic saga translations into English from their beginnings in the eighteenth century to today. It explores reasons for undertaking saga translation, and the challenges confronting translators. Chapters are devoted to the pioneering saga translations, the later Victorian and Edwardian eras, the often-neglected period of the two World Wars and their aftermath, and the upsurge of saga translation in the second half of the twentieth century. The contributions of individual translators and teams are reviewed, from James Johnstone in the 1780s through major Victorians such as Samuel Laing, George Webbe Dasent, and William Morris, distinguished twentieth century figures such as Lee M. Hollander, Gwyn Jones, Magnus Magnusson and Hermann Palsson, and George Johnston, and the great co-operative project which produced The Complete Sagas of Icelanders at the century?s end. The book concludes with saga translation facing interesting new possibilities and challenges, not least those generated by information technology. Languages : English.

Life and Works of Tolomeo Fiadoni (Ptolemy of Lucca)
Hardback, XVIII+276 p., 2 b/w ill., 156 x 234 mm. ISBN 9782503529233. Tolomeo Fiadoni (1236-1327) was one of the most remarkable of medieval writers. Living to almost one hundred years of age, Tolomeo bore witness to some of the most important events of the period. He studied and travelled with Thomas Aquinas and was elected Dominican prior in Lucca and Florence. He attended the saintly Pope Celestine V during Celestine's doomed reign, lived at the papal court in Avignon, served in the households of two cardinals, and associated with the infamous Pope John XXII. At the age of eighty, Tolomeo was appointed bishop of Torcello in the Venetian Lagoon, where his superior, the Patriarch of Grado, subsequently excommunicated and jailed him. Tolomeo is known today for his major contribution to republican political thought, most notably his continuation of Thomas Aquinas's only political treatise. However, he also wrote treatises on imperial and ecclesiastical power, a commentary on the six days of creation, a massive Church history, and a European history from 1063 onward. Drawn from all known surviving sources, The Life and Works of Tolomeo Fiadoni is the first full-length study of Tolomeo's life. It discusses each of his works, and addresses numerous problems of authorship and dating. Its companion volume, The Worldview and Thought of Tolomeo Fiadoni (Ptolemy of Lucca), provides an in-depth analysis of Tolomeo's beliefs and thought. Languages : English, Latin.

Worldview and Thought of Tolomeo Fiadoni (Ptolemy of Lucca)
Hardback, XVIII+276 p., 1 b/w ill., 156 x 234 mm. ISBN 9782503529264. Tolomeo Fiadoni (1236-1327) was one of the most important political theorists and historians of the Middle Ages. He was central to developing a theory for the practices of Northern Italian republicanism and was hostile to kingship, portraying it as despotic and inappropriate for virtuous and freedom-loving people. He was the first writer to compare Aristotle's examples of Greek mixed constitutions - Sparta, Crete, and Carthage - with the Roman Republic, the ancient Hebrew polity, the Church, and medieval communes, yet he remained a staunch defender of the absolute secular and spiritual monarchy of the pope. Blythe explores various tensions in Tolomeo's work that are often overlooked in scholarly treatments of him, and which derive from cultural preconceptions and the diverse influences on him: Aristotle, Augustine, apologists for papal power, his life in the Dominican Order, his educational experience with Thomas Aquinas, and his social position as a member of Northern Italy's ruling class. These factors exerted contradictory influences on Tolomeo and led him to a sometimes unsuccessful intellectual struggle for consistency. This book is the first full-length study of Tolomeo's thought and it gives full consideration not only to the political writings for which he is most known, but also to his historical and exegetical works. It is the companion to The Life and Works of Tolomeo Fiadoni (Ptolemy of Lucca). Languages : English, Latin.

Las inscripciones funerarias hebraicas medievales de Espana Tome I
Hardback, II+234 p., 30,5 x 44. ISBN 9782503512617. Le corpus des inscriptions funeraires de la peninsule iberique s'est etoffe depuis les editions de M. Schwab (1907) et F. Cantera Burgos - J.M. Vallicrosa (1956). Cependant l'ensemble conserve est remarquablement restreint si l'on considere l'importance de la population juive dans la peninsule iberique durant les dix siecles du Moyen Age (jusqu'aux expulsions de 1492 et 1496) : il ne compte que 221 pierres. L'introduction rappelle la documentation sur les necropoles juives et etudie l'evolution morphologique des pierres. Le catalogue des inscriptions est particulierement detaille : la notice commence par replacer chaque pierre dans son contexte archeologique et historique. Vient ensuite une description materielle et paleographique la plus complete possible. Le texte hebreu est suivi de sa traduction, puis de l'analyse et de la discussion du texte ligne a ligne, et d'une bibliographie generale. La photographie de la pierre et de l'inscription (accompagnee d'une echelle) aura une qualite suffisante pour que l'ecriture sur pierre complete desormais la documentation de la paleographie hebraique medievale, en lui apportant des exemples bien situes dans le temps et le lieu. Languages : French.

Nota Bene Reading Classics and Writing Melodies in the Early Middle Ages
Paperback, XV+362 p., 14 b/w ill., 16 x 25. ISBN 9782503525341. Nota Bene explores a little-known juxtaposition of verbal text and musical notation in the Middle Ages. This particular intersection deserves attention from those interested in music, the reception of classical Latin literature, the history of education, and the development of punctuation. Between the late tenth century and the late twelfth century, the musical notation known as neumes was provided in dozens of manuscripts for, among other texts, a number of Horace's Odes as well as for sections of epics by Lucan, Statius, and Vergil. These materials constitute a paradoxical corpus of "classical poems in plainchant" that complicates our views of both how students learned Latin and what was being sung in an era most often associated with Gregorian chant. The book wrestles first with the literary-historical puzzle of why certain passages and not others were "neumed" and later with the ethnomusicological riddles of how, where, when, and by whom the passages were sung. Languages : English, Latin.

manuscrits en ecriture beneventaine de la Bibliotheque capitulaire de Benevent Tome II: manuscrits 19-23, 25-31, 33-40, 42, 44, 66, 68 et fragments. Formulaires liturgiques.Tome III: Formulaires liturgiques ( offices ). Tables et index
Hardback, 1572 pages ., incl. 66 ill., 160 x 240 mm. ISBN 9782503506425. La derniere partie des Manuscrits en ecriture beneventaine de la Bibliotheque Capitulaire de Benevent porte sur vingt-quatre volumes. Ce sont, outre une bible, un florilege patristique et l'obituaire d'une confrerie beneventaine, des manuscrits liturgiques-missels, granduels-tropaires-sequentiaires,evangeliaires, livres de chapitre ( contenant, outre un martyrologe et la Regula Benedicti, l'un des tables de comput et un homeliaire, l' autre un necrologe, des textes canoniques et un rituel de profession ), brevaires, antiphonaire, ordinaire de l'office et recueil factice de libelli-manuscrits qui, par la multiplicite de leurs pieces, offrent a l'analyse des difficultes particulieres. Desireux de fournir au lecteur un instrument de travail qui lui permette, non seulement de comparer les manuscrits entre eux, mais de les confronter directement, sans devoir recourir a des repertoires ou a des editions, avec des manuscrits conserves dans d'autres bibliotheques, les auteurs se sont attaches a reproduire, par l'incipit de leurs elements, la totalite de leurs formulaires; ce procede evite les repetitions: l'analyse des manuscrits, dont le contenu se recouvre en partie, peut ainsi se borner a celle de organisation, leurs pieces etant reproduites dans les formulaires, et leur sequence indiquee en apparat. L'introduction, apres avoir recense les vestiges qu'ils ont conserves de l'ancien rite beneventain, dont ils sont, par deux surtout de leurs graduels-tropaires, les principaux temoins, complete l'histoire de la bibliotheque esquissee dans le tome I; elle ajoute trois manuscrits a la liste des manuscrits disperes depuis l'inventaire de Luigi Theuli ( 1447 ), et fournit des precisions supplementaires sur la date, l'origine ou la provenance de plusieurs de ceux qu'elle possede encore. Languages : French.

J. McClellan III, F. Regourd
Colonial Machine. French Science and Overseas Expansion in the Old Regime
Hardback, 696 p., 34 b/w ill. + 2 colour ill., 155 x 240 mm. ISBN 9782503532608. The rise of modern science and European colonial and imperial expansion are indisputably two defining elements of modern world history. James E. McClellan III and Francois Regourd explore these two world-historical forces and their interactions in this comprehensive and in-depth history of the French case in the Old Regime presented here for the first time. The case is key because no other state matched Old-Regime France as a center for organized science and because contemporary France closely rivaled Britain as a colonial power, as well as leading all other nations in commodity production and participating in the slave trade. Based on extensive archival research and vast primary and secondary literatures and sharply reframing the historiography of the field, this landmark volume traces the development and significance for early-modern history of the Colonial Machine of Old-Regime France, an unparalleled agglomeration of institutions geared to the success of the French colonial enterprise, including the Royal Navy, the Academie Royale des Sciences, the Jardin du Roi, and a host of related specialist institutions working together at home and overseas. Mainly supported by the French state, the Colonial Machine reveals itself through its actions from the time of Colbert and Louis XIV as it grappled with fundamental problems facing contemporary European colonialism: cartography and navigation; medical care of sailors, colonists, and slaves; and applied botany and commodity production. Historians of globalization and European overseas expansion, of Old-Regime France, and of science in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries will henceforth take this stimulating volume as a necessary starting point for further reflection and research. Languages : French, English.
