Philip, Marion. "La sexualité légitime comme privilège. Masculinités parisiennes à l’époque moderne (1600-1750)." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Sorbonne université, 2022. http://www.theses.fr/2022SORUL065.
Full textThe Catholic Reformation in the 17th century is well known for its promotion of the sacrament of marriage. The State also conducted a policy of regulating sexuality and marriage, thereby protecting and asserting paternal authority over the matrimonial destiny of its dependents. This austerity sharply contrasts with the “sexual liberation” of the 18th century, which mainly benefited men. Sexuality would then gradually escape the moral constraints and legitimacy of marriage. These developments shaped men's relationship with sexuality between 1600-1750. This study establishes a clearer chronology for this shift. It mainly relies on Parisian’s Church Court’s archives, which documented the sexuality of Parisians from various social backgrounds: from clerics and lay people, to single and married men. These archives are looked at in correlation to a set of medical, moral and legal texts, pornographic writings, songs, proverbs and iconography. Three lines of inquiry are considered. Firstly, whilst marriage was an attractive ideal in the 17th century, because it gave people access to a legitimate sexuality which did not affect the chances of salvation, we argue that the patriarchal figures (such as father, master and captain) gradually increased their control of it. Secondly, by scrutinising the fragility of conjugal masculinities, we demonstrate how domestic power is indexed to the exercise of exemplary sexual conduct. Finally, the study delves deep into lay and ecclesiastical single men’s relation to illegitimate sexuality, and what it reveals about their relationship to women, but also to other men

Full textBased on a important corpus of prostitutional literature, novels, memories, and police archives, this thesis in history questions tensions and draws links between legitimate and illegitimates sexualities. During the second half of the 19th, the diversity of the practices and discourses about sexuality shows the plurality of prostitution's representations in the social imagination. Along a deep process of transformation of the Parisian society, this diversity also sheds light on the oppositions and confrontations between various social groups wich were trying to establish their conception of prostitution, sexuality, marriage and conjugality. The first part tackles the various paths of the prostitutes and the "femmes galantes", the "demi-monde", the student's sexuality and the rise of abolitionism. It demonstrates that the contestation of arranged marriages and the process of love marriages had transformes illegitimate sexualities before influencing marital and familial strategies. A phenomenon wich explains the multiplication of the "femmes entretenues" (kept women) and "parallel couples". The second part focusses on the evolution of the prostitutional activities with the emergence of Modern Paris. Thus, brothel's decline and prostitution's metamorphosis appear to be less linked to an evolution of the male sexual desire than to the rise of leisure and entertainment spaces to the extroversion of the Bourgeois lifestyle, as a consequence of the changes in the public space

Full textThis thesis aims to go beyond the mere aesthetic appraisal of the classical garden and to establish the link between its creation and philosophical tradition. It examines what is meant by the common phrase "a French style garden" and relates the history of the gardens created in France in the 17th century and that of the terms commonly used by art criticism and history to depict this type of garden. Connecting the art of gardens with the philosophical tradition of the "art of living", it studies how modern art treatises by Olivierde Serres, Cklaude Mollet, Jacques Boyceau de la Barauderie, André Mollet, La Quintinie, Dezallier d'Argenville) were inspired by the works of ancient writers, mainly Latin agronomists, but also differed from them. Then it examines the relations between the art of gardens and the fine arts that it seems to depend on : painting or architecture, through the works of André Félibien and Claude Perrault, as well as the part played in garden creation by the times' scientific knowledge of physics and geometry, in particular perspective modified by Desargues. The thesis outlines a history of the construction of the garden space from Olivier de Serres to Le Nôtre, and its correlation with the interpretation and the use of perspective in the 17th century. Finally the meaning of the garden's whole body is sought in literature, in the novel whose emblem it is : "Le songe de Poliphile" (Poliphile's dream) by Francisco Colonna, of which there is an evocation in La Fontaine's poems, and above all in the descriptions made in mademoiselle de Scudery's work "Clélie- la promenade de Versailles" ( Clelie- the walk in the gardens of Versailles) where imagination has a new role to play. Then a parallel can be drawn between the theatre and the garden, the former as a representation of historical action (Corneille), the latter as a representation of nature's action as it manifests itself in the living body, in particular in Man himself. Cartesian anthropology with its analogical conception of the life of bodies through distinct images provides the ultimate meaning of the garden as a work exemplified by the writings of someone like La Quintinie in the specific domain of plants
Warolin, Christian. "Le cadre de vie professionnel et familial des apothicaires de Paris au XVIIe siècle." Paris 4, 1994. http://www.theses.fr/1993PA040235.
Full textThe status of the joint community of apothecaries and grocers and the professional training of aopthecaries have been examined, as have the conditions under which the profession was exercised : associate contracts, equipment trade, valuation of shop instruments, of scales and weights, of drugs and compositions, and of books. Medicinal pound-weights have been studied. Even though medical concepts and doctrines which oriented medical prescriptions remained influenced by the past, evolution was beginning to take place ; the medical body's keen interest in preparations containing opium and in the development of chemical remedies announced the era of chemical medication. The number of apothecaries and their locations on the map have been determined. Marriage contracts reveal that dynasties were frequent. Testaments bear witness to the religious fervour of apothecaries. House-letting leases, agreements for sales of houses, official reports of appraisals by Paris building trade clerks of court, and even inventories after death, provide indications of the conditions of accommodations. An evaluation of professional resources (shop contents : instruments, drugs and compositions) and of certain domestic resources (objects of value, liquid assets), situated apothecaries among the well-to-do bourgeoisie. In some cases, property resources were considerable. Although apothecaries suffered on account of commercial competition from grocers, they especially suffered from the guardianship exerted by the Faculty of medicine which, in particular, opposed that master apothecaries organise independent pharmaceutical training

Full textThe aim of this work is to compare two communities living in Vivarais, the Catholics and the Protestants, through their ways of life and their ways of believing. The frame of the study is Vivarais defined as a civilian diocese of the Ancien Regime. However three sites are particularly taken into account : Annonay, Villeneuve-de-Berg and Privas. The period studied includes the 17th and 18th century, more precisely from 1629, the year of the Peace treaty of Alès, to the edict of 1787. The comparison has enabled us to show that the two denominations have many things in common in both ways of believing and ways of life. Several ways of coexistence have been highlighted through the three sites studied : either with a watertight or an open denominational boundary

Full textThe aim of this study is a thorough analysis of a large body of French historiographical works written between 1612 and 1696. Divided into three main stages, the examination of thematic and structural characteristics of seventeenth-century narrative historiography focuses on tragic, romantic and anecdotal traditions. A series of preliminary biographical surveys is intended to collate ascertainable data pertaining to the specific professional strategies involved in historiographical-related careers. Concurrently, critical inquiry devoted to documentary procedures, referential options, epistemological presuppositions and historiological considerations is conducted as a contribution to the understanding of inherent methodological conventions substructing early modern historical narrative genre. In addition to prosopographical and diplomatological areas of investigation, an exploration of emblematic discursive presumptions underlying the deployment of formal and thetic configurations is designed to reveal operative intellectual paradigms. The exhaustive inventory of topological processes and the complete enumeration of salient locutionary features conjointly fulfill the purpose of reconstructing both implicit and recurrent behavioral indications exclusively discernible through collective representational perspectives. Finally, close inspection of the principal phases of contemporaneous literary criticism ranging from tutelary and censorial intervention to scholarly opinion, including publisher's and reader's scrutiny, accredits a reevaluation of prevalent assumptions regarding antecedent historical culture in light of hitherto unutilized source materials

Full textThis thesis is the study of parochial history of the "royans" throughout two centuries. Benefitting from lessons drawn from religious sociology and serial analysis, i describe the history of the ecclesiastical action as well as that of the "chretien quelconque" taking into account the evolution of the faithful's attachment to religion between the 17th and the 18th centuries. The material and moral destruction which could be witnessed up to 1670-1680, which i depict, gave way to an era of reconstruction. Moreover the religious authorities made it a point to recapture the minds of the faithful aiming at imposing unanimity, conversion and adhesion. The aforementioned programme of action seemed to come to fulfilment between 1730 and 1750; the faithful seemed ripe enough. Nevertheless the analysis of their behaviour at the approach of thesacred, enables us to evaluate beyond an apparent conformism the lukewarmness which precedes hostility and anticlericalism, obvious about 1760. The setting of a pre-industrial production undoubtedly contributed to this evolution of the society while the religious fervour remains even after the revolution. We notice the internalization of religion and of religious feelings reveals a change in people's frame of minds. A study of people's religious consciousness in the 19th century should show that the effects of the catholic reform are postponed while religious militantism and political commitment come into conflict
Chappée, Florence. "Annibal Gantez : contribution à la vie musicale en France, au XVIIème siècle." Paris 4, 1994. http://www.theses.fr/1994PA040172.
Full textAnnibal Gantez was born in 1607. He was a priest and a choir master. He owes his fame more to his work “l'entretien des musiciens” (published in Auxerre in 1643) than to his compositions proper. This collection of fifty-seven letters gives an invaluable account about life in choir schools as well as about the personality and culture of a musician living at the time of Louis XIII. The education of choir boys, the rehearsals with the singers and the dealings with superiors are dealt with. A true representative of choir masters travelling to gain experience or to fulfil their ambition, Annibal Gantez was in charge of choir schools in Toulon, Grenoble, le Havre, la Chatre, Aurillac, Avignon, Montauban, Aigues-Mortes, Marseille, Aix-en-Provence, Arles and Paris, before reaching Auxerre. After 1643, it becomes more difficult to trace his where-abouts. Records state he was successively in Carcassonne. Grenoble, Nevers, Arles, Auxerre and that he came to Nancy in 1665. Two polyphonic masses in the homophonic style enable us to link Annibal Gantez to the composers of the end of the sixteenth century and beginning of the seventeenth century

Full textFrom the remost days, the domination of man by man represents one the fundamental characteristics of the history of humankind. Slavery is part it. Nantes was the capital of the French slave trade which then spred on the whole atlantic coast, specially in La Rochelle, Bordeaux, Saint-Malo, Le Havre, Lorient etc. . . To talk about slaves and slavery in France during the ancien regime period car be surprising and even really amazing. Unlike what we usually believe, west indies and americas were not the only destinations or settling places of black slaves at that time. They come over and stayed in metropolitan France during the French colonial slavery period. Our study will deal with the reactions of French people towards blacks and it will also make out the attitudes and stereotypes that are deeply hidden in french institutions and culture. Besides, we will study the social, political and juridical consequences resulting from the presence of blacks (free and slaves) in France from the XVII century until the collapse the ancien regime

Full textThe subject of this thesis is to study the artistic life in the dioceses of Périgueux and Sarlat during the Ancien Regime, through the production of church furniture, in the context of the Catholic Reformation. It is therefore possible to understand the specific role of every social group in the restoration of the sanctuaries and in the different processes to order pieces of art. The documentation coming from the local archives provides us a lot of information about many artists and craftsmen who worked in the construction of altarpieces and tabernacles during this period, raising questions about the modes of production, structure and functioning of the workshops, but also the professional status of the provincial masters at a time when the concepts of art and craft are taking different ways. On the other hand, the study of the relations with major urban centers around, such as Bordeaux or Toulouse, and the mobility of artists working in Périgord, help us to determine the place of this province in the “artistic geography” of France. The analysis of forms and styles, and their evolution throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, based on a catalog of works preserved in the churches of Dordogne, highlights the influence of engraved models on the local productions. This asks the question of the own ability of creation of these artists and how, on the basis of images and forms used as models, each of them develops its own manner, with a surprising talent for interpretation. Finally, the comparison between productions visible in Périgord and the regions of the south-west and the centre of France, such as Limousin, Auvergne and Quercy, leads to the identification of common characteristics, both in the initiation and development of a “baroque art”, certainly local but whose authors have not ignored the great European art

Full textThe dissertation entitled "women's life through the french painting of eighteenth century" develops three essential parts : the pratical life, the private life and the professional life, and leans on contemporaneous pictural works in order to justify its assertions. It treats in its first part of women's diverse society activities, deals with the salon phenomenon, describes through the example of madame de pompadour the place of the theatre and the fine arts in women's universe (painting, pieces of china), and deals then with the theme of pleasures (games, love). In its second part, the private life of these women is related, the relations between the latter with their children during different periods of existence (feeling, raising, marrying) are evocated and the major social which rests of them is brought to the fore. Moreover it evocates the purely selfish activities to which these women give themselves over (wash, moments of oblivion, minor activities), and insists on the importance of the intimate pleasure. Finally, the third and last part is devoted to the theme of labor, where a very clear distinction is made between degrading tasks with which the majority of the female population is concerned (servants, workers) and rewarding and fulfilling occupations that have the artists, the craftswomen or the teachers. It deals lastly with the oldest profession in the world : the prostitution. To conclude, it notices the extreme diversity of women's life at that time, and insists on the very ambivalent position that they hold in the society
Saupin, Guy. "Nantes au XVIIe siècle : vie politique et société urbaine, 1598-1720." Paris 4, 1992. http://www.theses.fr/1992PA040131.
Full textWith a general assembly of householders, a multiform council of leading citizens and a town council where are staying a mayor and six aldermen, the city of Nantes knows an important municipal life in the seventeenth century. The annual assembly of a few hundred electors with personal vote and the failure of closing plans in 1631 and especially in 1710-1720 give it a great originality. If the open deliberative assemblies disappear towards 1620, the extended councils resist as far as 1720. The officers of the justice court of Nantes and the audit office of Britain have the monopoly of mayor office. From 1598 to 1639, the aldermen mostly come from justice courts, from 1640 to 1668, merchants and men of justice are balanced; from 1669 to 1720, merchants triumph over barristers and attorneys. This evolution is in accordance as well with the change of Nantes trade as the social consequences of the politic problems in the seventeenth century. The reproduction of the ruling class yields to a co-optation trough eligibility rolls. The monarchy respects the self-regulation of the leading citizens. This does not lead to the confiscation of the power by a little minority of old families because the integration of the nouveaux riches and the powerful immigrants is finally very easy. The true dynasties are few, but form a cell fit to give continuity in the municipal administration

Full textSince the early twentieth century, the interest of the French aristocracy in the musical life has ceased to hold the attention of music historians. But the historiography on the subject based mainly on research around a personality or clamped between chronological boundaries close. Our project was different because it was to be a comprehensive look at more than two centuries of family history of the princes of Conti, and question their taste and artistic practices. We have tried to highlight, from literary sources, musical and pictorial material that provided this broad summary, the continued interest of these princes malcontents for visual art but also for dance, theater and music, the arts, which were likely to meet the requirement imposed by their magnificence row to establish their legitimacy, but also to satisfy their passion and curiosity. Inspired by the monarchical model, the patronage of Conti participated in the movement for emancipation of progressive elites from Versailles to Paris and helps to qualify the traditionally assumed dichotomy between these two poles of creation. Beyond the family environment is thus the evolution of musical patronage of the aristocracy in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries it has been allowed to approach. Let us hope that this study will arise and disappear artistic heritage family can contribute to a better definition of "climate sensitivity" and would better understand the place occupied by music and the arts in the elite culture in the modern era

Full textAs a "Ground study" of the Catholic Reformation, the present work intents to illustrate the process of cultural and religious transformation within the 469 parishes and chapels belonging to the dioceses of Upper Brittany (Haute-Bretagne), i. E. Rennes, Dol and Saint-Malo, from the middle of 15th to the beginning of the 18th century. The first part covers the parishes of Haute-Bretagne during a long 16th centuy. We first will outline the way parishes are being administered, and then try to understand at what degree the Church constitutes the Parish's centre ; finally we contemplate the clerical framing, the will to undertake reforms and appearing of new problems. The second part is dedicated to the main century of Catholic Reformation, i. E. The 17th century. The implementation of this movement is based both on the episcopal impetus and the reforming within the clergy, but furthermore on the admnistration of the fabriques. The ambition of extending christianisation is characterised by the action of devout elites, the preaching of the clergy, the Missions as well as by the development of worship brotherhoods. Besides, transformations related to the Sacral space, and the worship's magnificence bear witness of the links between liturgy and the pastoral influence. The third part is about the achievements and limits of the reforming action, both as to faiths and practices. We first aim to elucidate the matter of the transformation of the practices and inner conversions, and then illustrate changes and continuities in the field of devotion. Finally, the mutation and resistance of the Ancient World testify of the strategies' reality and success, but also the resistances and remains

It is in fact divided into two different parts belonging to two great rural countries in Haute-Normandie : the Pays de Caux and the Pays de Bray. The organization of the community will be studied, showing the coherence and divisions in the XVII-XVIIIth centuries. Our reflexion will focus on the type of economic development not only based on agricultural resources but on various complementary activities created by these small communities. They are integrated into a complex system of relationship including several levels. Finally, the outlines of the social structure will be highlighted

Full textEarly modern medicine conceived female's temperament as cold and wet, imperfect and morbid. Women were ill all along their life, hysteria, nymphomania, pregnancies, labour, curse, prolapsus This gendered etiology has been the ambiguous subject of many treatises on Diseases of the women. This Corpus offers a valuable field of investigation to analyze the way in which the categories of healthy and unhealthy have been constituted as categories of power. This conception of the female body as a pathogenic body justified a natural inequality between the two sexes. Naturalists used the gender domination as a general pattern: Indians or slaves are perceived as having an effeminate and weak temperament. The temperament became a tool for naturalization and racialization of social relations. The concern with health and the fear of depopulation urged the physicians to define a concept of feminine health fit to promote the model of a healthy and vigorous woman, mother of the children of a strong Nation. The mother became the feminine type of health, opposed to the figures of a mutant or "degenerated" femininity, the hysteric, the sutler-woman, the "mannish woman", the prostitute or the african slave. The takeover of birth world allowed the authorities to discard midwives and nurses. In the colonies, this new management of reproduction was crucial for the plantocratic system: the wives transmit their vigorous temperament to theirs children along with their milk, despite of any climate influence. Their function was to guaranty the inthe integrity of national characters and the superiority of whites over blacks. They thus became a pattern and a weapon for the regeneration of the Nation

Maral, Alexandre. "La chapelle royale de Versailles sous Louis XIV : architecture, institutions, liturgie." Paris 4, 1997. http://www.theses.fr/1997PA040041.
Full textFive chapels succeeded each other between 1661 and 1715. The chapel built in 1672, whose decoration was mainly due to Le Brun, was the most remarkable of the first three, whose existence was nevertheless very short. The chapel built in 1682, designed to be temporary, lasted in fact until 1710. Its internal decoration can be easily reconstituted. The last chapel, consecrated in 1710, was planned and built over a period of twenty years, and to the boldness of its architectural style it adds an amazing richness in its deeply symbolical iconography. The services of the chapel royal of Versailles were ensured by two groups of ecclesiastics: the king's household officers and, after the installation of the court at Versailles in 1682, the priests of the mission, also known as lazarists. Each of these institutions carried out precise functions, which have been rediscovered thanks to the sources coming from the officers of the king's household and the regulations of the chapel. It is through this latter document as well as the contemporary chronicles that the everyday life of the chapel can be reconstituted. The liturgical ceremonies, during which music was given a very important place, were numerous and varied. The fathers of the mission performed them with an immutable regularity, while the ecclesiastical officers of the king's household followed the movements of the court. Besides the ordinary masses and offices, which were identical to those performed in parish churches throughout the kingdom, some ceremonies in the presence of the king and his family took place in the chapel at Versailles. These particularly included princely baptisms and weddings, feasts of the order of the saint-esprit, bishops’ oaths and cardinals' receptions. In other respects, the almost sacerdotal function of the most Christian king was expressed by some rites which attributed an episcopal role to the king, like those of the aspersion of holy water, the kissing of the gospels and of the corporal, the incensing, the celebrant's bows. All these elements enable us to establish a coherent understanding of the king's religion in the context of the daily life of the French court at Versailles

Full textIn the Limousin, from 1660 to 1789, catholic Reform took off gently, in the devotional habits of the faithful. The demanding training, in the tradition of Saint Sulpice, of priests in the seminaries of Limoges (from 1660) and Tulle (from 1697) could easily have led to the rapid domination of the Church and a possible split with the population. This did not, however, happen. On the contrary, while puttting forward claims for the exceptional nature fo priesthood and maintaining a distance from the faithful, the Limousin clergy managed to pass on a renewed faith to a largely illiterate population, without causing the slightest religious breach. So it was that hope preached from the pulpit, in terms of possible salvation for all. In the same way, parish ground was only modified slightly, and mostly with the agreement of parishioners. The same was true of devotional practices during processions and in the life of brotherhoods. The Church favoured a community expression of belief, under the leadership of the clergy, without rejecting traditional practices, unless these were perceived as directyl harmful. The practices were simply given their proper place in the hierarchy of intercession to God. In the Limousin, from the second half of the 17th century until the Revolution, the church, then, made the choice of fitting its pastoral scheme into the framework of a society strongly influenced by collective references or commitments

Full textThe traditional image of Poitiers in the 17th century is that of a declining town. Unable to integrate into the largest commercial networks of the kingdom, fixed in the old urban model, kept low in the hierarchy of monarchic authority, it presents a contrasting picture with the usually prestigious role of the provincial capital during the Renaissance. The period which begins in the 1620s (a peaceful time after the ultimate death throes of the Ligue) and ends in the early years of the 18th century (after the last generation of urban magistrates who lived through the apogee of the reign of Louis XIV had disappeared) is more a period of change than decline. The social hierarchy is locally dominated by an elite composed of officiers moyens, university masters and clergymen. The members of the Bureau des finances, the presidial courts, the regent doctors and the canons, also form the majority of the municipality council. This group has its coherence in a system of values founded on the notion of dignity. This can be seen in the speeches given at official celebrations, in the very ceremonies of the assemblies, and negatively, in satirical writings. The devotional gestures, the establishment of private libraries, the publication of books and the different forms of social mores are the numerous and varied cultural practices which build the social identity of the elite. There are several changes during the century. By integrating the new rules imposed by the reinforcement of the monarchic authority and the Catholic reconquest of the Council of Trente, the group that dominates the city gives away a certain cohesion within to maintain its social supremacy

The four sexual deviations that form the object of this study are: solicitation by clerics, bigamy, sodomy, and bestiality. We studied the basis for repression before the beginning of the sixteenth century and the reasons why sodomy was entrusted to the inquisition. After the distribution of repression among four legally distinct offenses (seduction by priests, double marriage, homosexual practices, sodomy of women, zoophilia), we consider the sociological aspects of these human groups to fix the real aims of the holy office. In a second part, we study the activity of the tribunal in the proceedings and in the sentences and penalties inflicted upon such sexual offenses. The repercussion of this repression on the attitude of men, witnesses, and the whole society. In a third part, we analize in a positive way the contents of the relaciones de causas in order to establish a map of the distribution of marginal sexuality in town and in the country, and to insist on the importance of language. Finally we try to characterize the manifestations of exploitation of young men and the phenomenon of substitution in zoophilia. The last aspect concerned the link beween violence and the sexual behaviors

Full textA pioneer of New France because he was involved in Jean de Poutrincourt's attempt at colonizing Acadia from 1606 to 1615, Marc Lescarbot was also a "study man" of the first half of the XVIIth century, that is to say a Christian humanist on whom the memory of the wars of religions had left its mark, a man eager to take part in France's regeneration. This Vervins-born man, who became a lawyer at the Paris parliament, who even crossed the Atlantic to live in the new world in 1606 and 1607, and who braved the treacherous Swiss alps to be at the service of a French ambassador from 1611 to 1616, expressed his fears and hopes, not only in his harangues delivered at Vervins on the occasion of the franco-spanish peace signed in 1598, or in his poetical picture of Switzerland, a traditional ally of the French sovereign, or in his epic poems in praise of Louis XIII, who had defeated the English on the isle of Ré and subdued the inhabitants of la Rochelle, but also in his written pieces about New France, which he saw as a land of plenty and opportunity. He believed that the nostalgia in which he shared with his learned contemporaries, for the golden age, happiness and Acadian peace under the benevolent rule of shepherd-kings could allow him to draw up a viable colonial project. His New France was in fact nothing but a literary fiction that could appeal to some people but that was bound to remain a utopia. It did not even attract the king's attention and aroused the suspicion of the citizens of the "republic of the letters". So far, only literature historians have been interested in Marc Lescarbot, above all Québec and Acadian ones, who placed him in their literary pantheons in the 1960s. However historians who study mentalities can find in all his works a particularly rich expression of the fears and dreams of the French intellectuals of the first XVIIth century

Full textThis study suggests a reflection on the intellectual conditions that prepared the artistic blossoming of the "golden age" in lorraine at the beginning of the 17th century. To understand the originality of the cultural history in lorraine on the threshold of the classical era, we have chosen to give prominence to different expressions of symbolic imagery and thinking. Various sources have been used : documents from the archives, literary texts, iconographic documents, emblem books. This enables firstly to grasp the political imagery of the duchy of lorraine, an independant state gradually asserting its specificity between france and empire. The second part deals with the intellectual, ethical and spiritual aspects of humanism and to the propositions put forward by the renewed catholic church. Eventually, the third part presents three main moments of emblematics in lorraine : engraver pierre woeiriot's work, the activity of the humanistic circle in metz (jean-jacques boissard), and the religious emblems engraved by jacques callot

Full textThis essay focuses on the analysis of the life and the achievement of Henri II de Bourbon, Prince de Condé, as an example of nobiliary behaviour in the 17th century. The case of the Prince de Condé provides a great and inventive opportunity since this character had a great impact on the political history of the 17th century. Leader of the Party of the Fronde long before time, chief of the rebels, he then became, thanks to timeliness and cleverness, one of the pillars of absolutism. The story of his life provides the historian with an interesting example of nobiliary behaviour in front of the growing absolute power. Torn between his duty to revolt, imposed by his status and the upholding of his privileges, the obligation to adapt himself to changes implied by the evolution of any living society, the Prince de Condé found a suitable compromise. It allowed him to find his place back to the top of the State and to establish his power and his fortune

Full textThis work is about the pratice of th consolation letter in France during the first half of the seventeenth century. It is based on a comparative approach. The letter's composition follows the model of the Antiquity. The representations used by the writers draw a parallel between Early Modern France and Ancient Republican Rome. Letter is analyzed as a specific discourse and as a place of ancient Roman civilization "survival" (A. Warburg). The reconstitution of the practice that induces it and references to Antiquity it contains bring to the fore the caracteristics of the consolation letter's writing. Two hypothesis are checked in order to explain the obvious ubiquity of the Roman model : the first on concerns the historical transmission of the ancient inheritance which makes available such reference, the second on concerns the analogy existing between two social structures which makes its appropriation possible in the Early Modern society with some displacements of this model. Those alterations are made visible in the study of Roman consolation that ends this work

Full textThis thesis investigates a number of pictorial decorations with literary subject in French aristocratic houses during the period from the reign of Henry IV to the beginning of the regency of Anne of Austria, especially during the 1620's and 1630·s. Critical literature has shown the important reference to the literature in pictorial patronage of Henry IV and Marie de 'Medici: from the Franciade to the Ethiopiques, from the Jérusalem Dclivercd, to the Pastor Fido. In a larger part, those subjects enjoyed a great fortune also in aristocratic patronage of crown ministers as weil as of some rebel "frondeur". During the same years, with the publication of Honoré dUrfé's .Astrée, Cervantes ' Don Quixote and many others, the novel began to impose itself as autonomous genre, to becorne an important instrument of representation but also a way of training and reflection on society and culture of modern Europe. Indeed as the epic heroes. who appeared in painting but even on stage - as protagonists of court ballets, tragedies and tragicomedies - were increasingly read and interprete in a "novel' light. So, figurative arts were involved - in their way - to this development, which is one of the nodal points of our cultural history. Starting from the specific case sets a literary subject, the ultirnate goals of this work are the analysis of the different cornmands, the different way to "read" these "histories" and to translate them in images, and the relationships between artistic patronage. literarv patronage and, in general, the links between culture and painting

The Town Council becomes an actor of the religious life, slowly first, then quickly when during the Thirty Years’ War and the reign of Louis XIV, this administration is alone in front of representants of kings of France

Full textHermit leaves the world for meeting God. This fact that accompanied the Church all the long of her history. In Champagne and Lorraine, eremitical life appears especially dynamic at three times : end of 5th century to end of 7th century, end of 10th to 12th century and end of 16th to end of 17th century. This last era is the golden age of the movement. Reasons of revival of eremitical life in the second half of 16th century are manies. Books praise of solitude. The success of spiritual currents (dévotio moderna and spanish spirituality) favorable to solitude is real. Climate factors favour the movement. Wars of Religion, the League lead to the desire to leave a world of violence. The state of regular clergy plays a part too. Send to the pastoral or not yet reformed, it is not satisfactory for peoples who search solitude, all the more that monastic rules are for some peoples a too rigid framework. Finally, some hermits have an aura and arouse vacations.In the 17th and in the beginning of the 18th century, literatur and arts spread a positiv picture of hermit. But it’s mean an old or faraway hermit. The contemporary hermit is criticized. The first is an independent spirit out of place in an order society. So, supervision of hermits in the first decades of the 17th century is made by diocesan congregations at Langres (1623) and Toul (1655 and 1676).The 410 hermitages listed in Lorraine and Champagne at the beginning of the 18th century show the success of eremitical life. But the result is not homogenous in the space. eremitical life is principally present ant active in dioceses of Toul, Metz and Langres. Dioceses of Verdun, Reims and above Châlons and Troyes are clearly less concerned. Here play regional idiosyncrasies : importance of protestantism and jansenism in these dioceses create a spiritual competition unfavorable to eremitical life and the personality of the bishop, when he’s in disfavor about hermits, as Le Tellier at Reims, take a big importance.The study of hermitages in sacred geography shake the myth of hermitage faraway of all. The hermit, often born in lower or middle social classes, has a career sometime complex (widowerhood, poverty). His spirituality is often the same of Christian people but sometime exceptional and he is seeing as a saint.The 1670 decade is the beginning of a time disfavor to hermits. The bishops of Reims then Metz and Verdun forget hermits in their dioceses. The Age of Enlightenment makes fun of hermits in their woods. Nevertheless their quality is proved. Eremitical life declines at the 18th century and miss practically behind the French Revolution. Hermits are expelled and hermitages sold. Some hermits exist at the XIXth century. Often, the hermitage is broken after the death of the last hermit. Only the chapel remains. Eremitical life miss physically but literature and art perpetuate an imaginary hermit

Full textThe modern city is a membership community, offering its members a set of rights. Focused on the determinants of segregation in old regime Marseilles, this thesis considers the political and legal means by which the citadinity is built. In a conflicting political configuration, observing the definition of legitimate and illegitimate citizens highlights the nonlinear evolution of shared sovereignty between the many competent juridictions in the city. After thinking on the consequences of the "édit d'affranchissement du port' (1669) in terms of administration of urban citizenship, the purpose is organized around two major mobilisations of the new traders' power against the presence of foreigners in the city, during the first half-century of Louis XIV's reign. These cases concern successively a small community of jewish merchants from Livorno and Nice (1670- 1682), and the various groups that make up the people of the king's galleys : slaves, convicts, convicts' wive, released convicts, soldiers (1680-1710). Concentrated on indigenous systems of justification and contextualization, our study seeks to account for the complex issues which govern protection as well as the expulsion of foreign groups in Marseilles. It is also to consider the power relations involved in these controversies, and subtle rebalancing following the mobilizations. Then appears a map of the many membership's operators who collectively participate in perpetual redefinition of margins of the political community

Full textThis research deals with literacy in the exercise of political power, from an individual, Antoine Godeau (1605 -1672). Its uniqueness resides-in its historiographical approach. While Godeau has already been studied in the biographical angle, the current analysis focuses on the social usage of writing. In addition, part of the corpus examined consists of spiritual writings which are often confined to the religious field, by researchers in history and literature, including those with an approach on the social usage of writings. The issue of this thesis is the analysis of writing practices' adaptation to spaces in the exercise of political power by individuals seeking social advancement through their writing's skills in seventeenth-century France. While most authors of that period tried to be in the center of political and literary powers, Godeau had to move to the periphery of France, in a bishopric of Provence. The hypothesis is that the examination of the relationship between the center and margins of an individual following the reverse path most commonly taken by men of letters will lead to generate more complex configurations. In the first part, writing practices of Godeau while he was working close to the central power are examined. In the second part, the man of letters and his writing activities are studied while he incarnated himself the central government, as bishop of Grasse and Vence. Finally, in the third part, Godeau's writings are studied from the periphery of the realm, in his relationships with central and local authorities

Full textThe musical life of the Sainte Chapelle in Paris during the 16th and 17th centuries has not been reassessed since the work of Michel Brenet (1910). The exploitation of sources, development of liturgical studies and advances in musicological research allow for a renewal of our understanding of this church and its music. By founding the Palace chapel, Louis IX established the clergy of the Sainte Chapelle. While monarchy and court abandon this church for the chapel royal, Francis I establishes a correlation between the musical and ecclesiastical staff of the Sainte Chapelle. This interdependence, maintained by the Chapter, results under Louis XIV in an assembly constituted of a majority of musicians. This thesis, based on the systematic study of primary sources, focuses on the clergy and musical activity. A particularity of the Sainte Chapelle is thus revealed: the interdependence of ecclesiastical status and appointment as a musician

Full textFranche-Comte went through significant changes in the seventeenth century. During the “10 Years War”, a local episode which was part of the “30 Years War”, it lost half its population, expanding subsequently through immigration from France, Savoy and Lorraine. At the beginning of the century it was an autonomous State under Hapsburg rule, but in 1654 Besancon lost its status as a “free town” and its right of a seat in Parliament. In 1678 Franche-Comté was re-united with France under the Treaty of Nijmegen. The abolition of the States of the province destabilized the institutions favouring absolutism. The Metropolitan Chapter lost the privilege of electing its Archbishop, this responsibility passing to Louis XIV in 1698. After the Council of Trent, the reform of the clergy and the followers increased and was carried away by a religious impulse. 1665 saw the founding of the Seminary of Besancon, a decisive moment because the following year the Archbishop called for primary schools to be opened in every village. Parish priests, who were to teach their flock, were selected by competition and were to be trained to carry out these duties

Full textUsually, the seventeenth century is considered as a time of romanisation of dioceses liturgy, following the model of Roman works that were reformed at the end of the 16th century by the pope Pie V (Roman breviary is printed in 1568). However, one has to come to the conclusion that each diocese keeps a certain margin especially concerning the conservation of particular uses if they had been in use for two hundred years, as scheduled by the bull Quod a Nobis.This study choses to show the consequences of the Roman reform on the identity and the worship of diocese through the prism of diocesan liturgic calendars and the books that contain them. Foremost, the chosen method consists in entering one hundred and thirty-five calendars, printed between 1570 and 1680 by seventy dioceses, in a data base and questionning them in series.More particularly, the calendars are the object in the early seventeenth century of deep reforms, in their structure as well as in their content. Hence, the Roman calendar and the saints services contained in the Breviary have not been adopted in the same way in all the dioceses of the French relm. It is then possible to build a cartography of the different degrees of adoption of the Roman model and identify spaces. In the same way, every diocese didn't mention as many particular uses as the others, especially in regard to the number of their own saints.Finally, these particular worships can be shared by several dioceses, defining new spaces of devotion to specific saints, on the French scale

The second part analyses the relation between the "conferences du bureau d'adresse", and modernity using their sources of knowledge and their intellectual forms of exchange which they put to work and diffu sed. The third part apprehends these sources of knowledge from an apistemological point of view and highlights the original way the members of this academy, all issued from a cultivated fring of french society, were situated in relatio n to the scientific and philosophic revolution that was taking place at that time and aims to evaluate the extent of their participation.

Full textDuring the feasts of Christmas and the Epiphany, the French southern choirmasters composed the music of Christmas in French, more rarely in Occitan, sung by soloists, chorus and accompanied by a more or less enriched instrumental staff. The poems put in music told various episodes of the birth of the Christ, sometimes mixed with other religious themes. The denomination «noël à grand chœur» used on two musical sources is the one which describes best the repertoire and its major characteristic, the presence of a chorus. This study entails us in diverse roads and sometimes little marked out: the religious and spiritual music in French, the music in province, music chapels and their re-creation in XIXth century, the music of the brotherhoods and the corporate associations. At the beginning of this research, about ten pieces of music were known; today it is a set of more than 91 anonymous pieces of music and 198 pieces of music of 55 composers from 1692 till 1852. The thesis investigates the poetic corpus in its various components: sources (in particular the printed libretti), texts and their construction, the music (when this one is preserved), the role of the repertoire in the liturgy, without forgetting the context which saw starting and developing such a practice, capitular choir of the South of France, brotherhoods and corporate associations

Full textThe ancien régime's seigneurial jurisdictions have been much criticized. But studying the organisation and the activities of three seigneurial courts of the La Vallière's duchy-peerage (Château-la-Vallière, Saint-Christophe and Marçon) between 1667 and 1790, shows that this institution could prove to be efficient, quick, not very expensive, and offer quite a few advantages to the ordinary man. Thanks to their extented powers, those courts interfered in many areas of the social and economic life, making them in that way useful to the people. If they guaranteed the Lords the payment of their rights and the seigneurie's upkeep, they were first and foremost at the inhabitants community's service. Major bodies of the country's social regulation, they took part in the public service of justice and of the police, as did the royal courts. Between the end of 17th and the end of the 18th centuries the expenses generated by the acts of the seigneurial courts of La Vallière's duchy-peerage increased a great deal and yet their global activity decresased much at the same time. However, at the eve of Revolution the courts under study were not on the wane. They kept and maybe developped their activity in the voluntary justice area. What's more, the last ten or twenty years of the ancien régime were marked by a new lease of life of the contentious and criminal activities
