Full textAlthough women were rarely taught to read and write in Brittany under the Old Regime, the education of girls was not totally ignored, it was even an importat factor of the Catholic Reform. The development of monasteries in the 17th century particularly helped educational establishmets. The Ursulin nuns who settled in the province were quickly perceived as being the ideal religious teacher because of their special vocation, educating the poor in classes during the day, and even boarding young girls. In fact a large majority of religious congregations and orders usually offered free education and boarding for the very poor. During the Age of enlightenment and parallel to this strong religious model, gradually emerged a movemet of lay women teachers for the young. And also several no-cloistered congregations were started in the 18th century thus promoting education in the rural areas. Teaching under the Old Regime appeared generally like apostolic work more than just giving access to the skills of reading, writing and arithmetic. Moreover it seems that education, far from being an elitist school system, offered a wide variety of schools open to young people from every class of society. Under the Old Regime, the popular opinion about educating girls was very certainly a major obstacle in systematically reaching all the girls to give them an education and to teach them to read and write : the structures existed but the mentality kept the teachers from attaining their objectives. Actually education for girls was limited to the time allotted for religious instruction which proved much too short to acquire even a minimum of reading and writing skills
Picco, Dominique. "Les Demoiselles de Saint-Cyr (1686-1793)." Paris 1, 1999. http://www.theses.fr/1999PA010566.
Full textIt was on madame de Maintenon's advice that king Louis XIV established the maison royale de Saint-Louis in 1686. Located at Saint-Cyr, close to the palace of Versailles, the institution catered for the education of daughters from impoverished noble families. This study aims at writing a part of the history of the pupils of the school from its inception in 1686 to its closing down in 1793. Historians have been hitherto more interested in studying the links between the institution and its founders, or in the courses that were taught, and the 3,000-odd pupils who were boarded there attracted litlle attention, excepted from some 19th- or 20th-century genealogists. Virtually everything remained to be done. Manuscript as well as printed sources kept in the bibliotheque nationale were first used to study the rules edicted by the king about who was to be admitted, how these rules were effectively implemented, and more particularly the selection process and its criteria. Applicants had to be of noble descent and a dossier, called preuves de noblesse, was to be presented to support their claim. The personal details for all the pupils (3,152 names) have been computerized in order to study the geographical origins of the demoiselles. We tried to determine which strata of the 17th- and 18th-century nobility they belonged to, and if the wishes expressed by Louis XIV, that these young girls were to belong to the ancient and military brand of the nobility, with low incomes, had been respected. This work shows what the impact of this institution was and how it varied from one strata of the nobility to another. It will put in broad daylight all these hitherto forgotten young girls, who were each raised and educated there for ahout 10 years, along the lines that were stated by Mme de Maintenon and remained untouched until 1793 - an education they subsequently passed on to their descendants well into the first quarter of the 19th century
Gilles, Florent. "Soumission, révolte, sexualité : l'éducation des jeunes filles de Mme de Lafayette à Sade." Thesis, Reims, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016REIML006/document.
Full textThis thesis deals with how to define the literary report of the nubile young girl breaking into the world and its link to the historical, social and cultural reality in the end of the 17th century and 18th century. How the fictional model of the young girl and the reality interfere in each other? With the help of " gender studies", we will take interest in literature as an active participant of the cultural construction of genres , and in this era as the birth of a kind of feminism. The young girls missing or deliberately incomplete education , appears as a foundation course to the future enslaved condition of woman of this era, to the role given to the feminin gender by society. The word education is to be understood in a larger way: intellectual education, moral education but also sentimental and sexual education. From this perspective, our corpus joins together three types of works, really different works, in order to have an overview on this phenomenon: moral and major works, loose and minor works, and works of female yet successful writers from the 18th century
Vales, Le Guennec Géraldine. "L'enseignement secondaire des jeunes filles à Paris de 1880 à 1938." Paris 5, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004PA05H036.
Full textThe thesis emphasizes two main issues. It is devoted, first, to the specific funding model of secondary education for girls in Paris, and its impact on the nature of the schools themselves. From the application of the Camille Sée law of 21st december 1880 in Paris, oppositions grew between the radical and the autonomist republicans in the Paris City Council and the opportunist republicans of the french government, as to the means of controlling the new institution , and the first five lycées for girls in Paris (Fénelon, Racine, Molière, Lamartine et Victor Hugo) created between 1883 and 1895 were funded soleley by the state. Second, from 1905, a period of mutations began for secondary education for girls, following which studies were reoriented for the preparation of the french baccalaureate. The analysis concentrates on Paris as a sample city in order to examine the issues raisedby the former evolution and explains the reasons leading to the 1924 reform, which assimilated secondary education for boys and girls. From the exemple of the capital city of France, the thesis also discusses the conditions of application of the Léon Bérard reform in parisian lycées for girls, together with the results of the assimilation and the new situation of secondary education for girls

Full textA history of our national education viewed from down below, carried out from the institution's own archives. How are accepted the instructions issued by the ministry of education and the educational district when delivered at the lycee: Camille See act, Berard reform, charge exemption from scholarly costs, Capelle reform? What is the part of autonomy, sometimes of ignoring instructions? Four periods in this monograph of a century-old lycee of the 9th district: - the time of young ladies, 1891-1914, that of the diploma, of passionate feminism and social work (workroom and holiday camps). Enrolment- for a fee -is from children of the district middle-class - jewish, protestant and militant agnostic families - but, contrary to instructions, "eagles" are induced to enter the university, while "goslings" study part-time and, with their mothers, spend the afternoon on social life. - The time of graduates - 1914-1954- with enrolment from the suburdan middle-class. In the thirties the lycee turns out around a hundred graduates every year. An entrance examination to the lower form makes registration dependent on merit, not only on social status. The second war is a black period, owing to to the large number of jewish girls: deportations, "yellow star", hidden children, exclusion of teachers. - the time of effervescence and dissent - may '68, guiot affair, the "files", movement against the debre act, etc. . . - creates a hotbed of protest and intense creativity, resulting in a fracture among the adults, teaching staff and parents. - The time of ebbing of perischolar pedagogic activities and political activism after 1980, despite ups and downs : the opening to boys remains incomplete, the college (lower forms) becomes socially more elitist than the lycee, suburban enrolment disappears. The lycee is seeking for a new breath

Full textThe ardent reflections of the Age of Enlightenment writers leads them to an awareness of the decline in the moral standards of their contemporary society and thence to an inquiring look at the educational system. They are particularly concerned with the education of girls, the future mothers who would be bringing up and educating the men of the new generation. On the fringe of the debate, women authors are also grappling with a problem they are especially concerned about and they realize that the novel is a tremendously effective means of expressing their criticisms, theories and ideals dashed hopes, unfulfilled dreams and grievances towards men and society whose treatment of women is so unfair. Their reflections on education, on the role and place of women in society, are vigorously supported by such philosophers and theorists as Saint François de Sales, Fénelon, Mme de Maintenon, Mme de Lambert and, later on, by Rousseau and other philosophers who find food for thought during the enriching discussions that take place in the salons the Age of Enlightenment women writers so competently hold. The heroines of their tales, short stories and novels are nurtured on the principles of the classical ideal but, little by little, to these embodiments of Christian virtues tinged with stoicism, they introduce weakness that make them more human. Throughout the century and beyond many will be renowned for their herosim and determination : they are active and energetic, fight successfully against adversity and courageously take their lives in hand. Towards the end of the century, women authors are pondering over the ethics of duty and demand a more humane moral doctrine in society. Marriage is a choice theme that enables them to expose their vision of love and serves as a framework for their criticisms of a society in which young girls are considered as objects and women as second-rate citizens without rights or belongings in adversity. However, the novelists' feminism remains ambiguous and timid. The authors are subjected to the rules of etiquette and public opinion that is imbued with Christian morality and will later be disappointed by the Revolution and its promises to their sex ; they dream of more social equality, calm relationships between man and wife and of respect for themselves. Their feminism, their defence against male misconduct, rely on feminine solidarity which is the distinctive hallmark of the fictional literature of the Age of Enlightenment

Full textThe Congregation of the Holy Name of Jesus, object of this study, was born in 1800 in Toulouse. Its existence over the years provides a page of the history of French CAtholicism, through this community of teaching Sisters meeting the diverse governements between 1800 and 1950. In addition, the story of the Holy Name of Jesus provides a page of the history of the instruction of girls in the 19Th and 20th centuries : living through years from 1900 to 1905, the evolution of french society and of the Church, obliged the sisters to reconsider their teaching, which, until that time, was a softened form of the teaching given to the boys. For the Holy Name of Jesus, affilated to the Dominican Order in 1888, it was a question not only of pursuing the taste entrusted to it by the Church, but also of finding its place in a Society which was more and more hostile to religious orders. This study, then, hopes first to be an illustration of what a congregation is between 1800 and 1950, from both the outside - How do the Sisters live? How are they greeted?- and the inside - How do the Sisters see theirs life? What motives incline their enter in couvent? What are theirs goals?- Second, that work leads to a question : why were some congregations victorious in passing through the upsets of the two last centuries why so many others did not survive them? Through the history of the Holy name of Jesus we have endeavored to provide a response : beyong secondary exterior factors, the perenity of a religieous institute first depends on the spirit which animates its members

Full textHistorians agree that Reformation brought deep modifications to the life of women in the XVIth century, but they are divided on the nature and the signification of these changes. Our research, which has focused on many texts of the XVIth century – treaties, notices, letters, biblical commentaries, sermons – and in particular on those written by the leaders of the evangelical movement in Strasbourg, leads us to think that the influence of Reformation was beneficial for the everyday life as well as for the spiritual vocation of women in Strasbourg: these women were able to take advantage of the ideas of Reformation and at the same time to use evangelical arguments to define leading roles for themselves

Full textThe Relations des Jésuites de la Nouvelle-France (1632-1672), written accounts of Jesuit missionaries' work in the seventeenth century, offer a unique perspective on the interaction between the finest contemporary language professors and the Amerindian populations of present-day Canada. This thesis analyzes the uncommon pedagogical relationship that this encounter yielded and whose references are found in the Ration studiorum, a didactic masterpiece that has been forgotten until now by historians and specialists of language and culture didactism. Through analysis of the body of these texts we bear witness to the techniques devised by the jesuits to learn the language and the culture of the Amerindian 'other" as a preliminary to their pedagogocal philosophy of communication. .

Full textThe purpose of this thesis is to study the education of young girls within a class of society which extolled them as the very paragons of their sex. The analysis of the principles of this education and its material organization, as well as of the intellectual and ethical moulding of the "damsel" and her training at social life draws from a variety of sources - such as written works or documents which are specific expressions of women and the feminine world (letters, conversations, memories, memoirs, records, newspapers): texts inspired by religion or the church (convent rules, statutes and constitutions, converses, counsels and advice); works aiming more especially at some form of education (plays, tales, novels, gazettes, charades). . . In short the whole study tends to demonstrate how the permanence of a grand design purporting to bring up and train the "damsel" in such ways as to eventually establish and maintain her as a model or mythical mirror of the ideal feminity was insured throughout a long period of French history running from the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries

Full textEssay on political and educational unknown literature at the beginning of the seventeenth century, in France. By confrontation of theoretical treatises and the diary of Jean Héroard, physician of the young son of Henri the fourth, we can see what is the thought of the education of the prince. Influenced by middle ages treatises, and also by Erasmus and Machiavelli, the authors of the beginning of the seventeenth century try to define relations between politics and moralities
Pascal, Catherine. "La tradition des Femmes Illustres aux XVIème et XVIIème siècles." Montpellier 3, 2001. http://www.theses.fr/2001MON30020.
Full textStemming from the tradition inaugurated by Boccace, the theme of "Illustrious Women" and the anthologies gathering exemplary "biographies" enjoy a growing success during the XVIth century to reach a peak in the first and particularly brilliant years of Ann of Austria's regency until the eve of the Fronde, while a distinct increase of women's prestige can be noticed in the social and political fields. Against the current of a traditionally misogynous doxy and literature which, resting upon a collection of ideas, beliefs and myths inherited from Antiquity and the Middle Ages, considered woman as an inferior, despicale "animal", that could even be dangerous for the family and for society, these elitist writings, based upon an aristocratic ideology, but nevertheless finding a wide audience, exalt the exceptional virtues of a relatively restricted number of scrupulously chosen women whose merit was consecrated by History or by the Bible. At the time of the social Counter-Reformation, some authors, religious for the most part, put forward these women as examples or models of secular saintliness to the female members of a nobility which has to be reconciled with piety. After studying the development of the discourse on the "Illustrious" in the world which created it, this work without neglecting their edifying value, first of all tries to examine the anthologies of the "corpus" on a serial and narrative point of view, by focusing on the analysis of the complex relations woven between the narrative and the image. Then, it makes an inventory of the different forms of women's heroism, by putting back the issue in the more general debate on the rivalry of the various types of glory, opposing a secular moral code -that of the World- to a religious one -that of God. Finally, it tries to assess the effects of this kind of literature on the female readership to which it is specifically destined

Full textBetween 1686 and 1719, Madame de Maintenon composed two series of short aducational plays entitled respectively "Conversations" and "Proverbs". Initially written for the Demoiselles of Saint-Cyr, i. E. , for an aristocratic public, these dramatic dialogues were conceived for the moral education of female boarding school students. Eventually, they were also used as practical exercises to improve politeness. A new literary style is thus created, the educational theatre, greatly followed in the next century. This type of plays issued from pre-existing literary forms, were inspired by civility used in the polite upper class society during the second part of the seventeenth century. The Maintenonian theatre play appropriates these models and adapts them to its pedagogical project : it institutes the child as its main character and as its privileged addressee

Full textMixed-sex education in France's public secondary schools begins with the presence of girls in boys' institutions in the early 1920s. The practice of mixing sexes in schools developed over the 20th century, and was imposed belatedly in 1976 with the decrees of application of the Haby reform. Before this law, this ''pedagogical revolution'' was applied silently through administrative circulars authorising what was termed coeducation in collèges and lycées for boys. An historical perspective on the evolution of ''coeducation'' requires the examination of the intersection of discourses and practices to unveil the challenges of mixing sexes and the evolving representations related to it. Based on the methods of social and gender history, this dissertation offers new light on the democratisation of secondary education in the 20th century. Through the application of diverse scales of analysis, the dissertation demonstrates how students and families, specialists of education and managers in public administration perceived and experienced the putting into practice of this new way of organising schooling. The mapping of coeducational establishments functioning in the metropolitan space from the 1930s to the mid-1950s offers insights into the location of these schools at a time when the separating of the sexes is still the norm. Adopting a chronological approach, the first section of the research reveals how the experience of coeducation began during the period between the two world wars. Through the analysis of discourses of the period, the second section examines the different perspectives and points of views expressed on the topic of coeducation and the resistance it encountered in different layers of society. Finally, the third section analyzes how the organisation of mixed-sex education evolved from the end of World War II until the mid-1970s. It shows that until the Haby reform, mixed-sex education was used pragmatically, as a tool to address the schooage population's growth. The history of mixed-sex education in public secondary schools is not only the history of girls' education; it is also the history of the socially determined relationship between the two sexes. It is the history of students, boys and girls, instructed in the same places, with the same educational programmes, which beyond the ''shared base'' of primary education, opened opportunities in secondary education as well as in higher education

Full textFrançois De La Mothe Le Vayer, a learned libertine in the XVII century was the of King Louis XIV’s private tutor. At first sight, the political part of our libertine – Richelieu’s protégé and the Sun-King’s private tutor – may seem contradictory with the idea of an educational precursor. Nevertheless, reading attentively Le Vayer’s works reveals, beyond his large culture of the Ancients, a critical thinking not deprived of any meaning within our present time. Libertines as precursors can be seen from two angles. First, by the setting up of the “economical governance” which is a distinctive feature of the way the Ancients ruled, we will point at the way François De La Mothe Le Vayer brings a secularized governing pattern to the foreground of politics by initiating the separation of pastoral governance from regal power. Secondly, by the means our libertine uses to highlight another vision of education of the self, separate from institutional forms and from educative conversion. Since the beginning of Christianity, the aim of education and converting institutes is to prepare souls to entering the expectation of a salvation which political order will then administer. Facing this, the libertine view of education establishes a break : an emancipating education. Putting into practice the theory of education of the self, how can La Mothe Le Vayer still be our contemporary? How can he enlighten us about the present state of things regarding the part of education as a lever for the political question?

Full textDuring the 17th and 18th centuries, there were regular performances given by Parisian Colleges, the ten belonging to Paris University, and the one held by the Jesuits (College de Clermont, later College Louis-le-Grand), with variable pomp and success, in which music and dance took a significant role. This thesis studies musical practices and dances as part of these performances. A complete catalog of the performances and the preserved sources along with a reconstruction of musical fragments gives an image of the artistic life in these pedagogical institutions in particular and in the Parisian theatrical context of the period. The specific conditions for these performances, the numerous publications (programmes, commentaries, manuscripts, posters, etc.), the actors and their professional environment have been studied. The ballet, with its continuity and prestige, is the subject of the 2nd part of this work. Since the mid-17th century, it holds an important and polemic position within the theatrical performance. The particularities of the college ballet and its century-long evolution are analyzed. The Parisian College Scene appears as a place of multiple assimilations, with actors, chorographic and musical practices from various origins and styles

Full textIn the 16th and 17th centuries, Plautus and Terence were regarded as the masters of the Latin language, and above all as the masters of comedy. They were, however, judged and rated according to a very specific concept, not always consistent with their own comedies. The two authors enjoyed a preconceived and undisputed status which, however, maintained them inside a vague image. In order to cast light on their status in the 17th century, this thesis examines their place in curriculums and theatre practice in schools, within different teaching contexts. Their presence in the art of translation is reviewed, as the French versions of Plautus and Terence that punctuate the 16th and 17th centuries contributed not only to the emergence of a theory of translation, but also to a reflection on dramatic art and to the birth of the “comédie française”. The thesis then looks at what those two playwrights represent and what it might have meant to be considered their worthy successor. Finally, an investigation of how Molière managed, in the eyes of his peers and successors, to combine and surpass the qualities of Plautus and Terence to even take their place as a standard is undertaken. With the thesis, it is intended to make a new contribution to the 17th century, through this analysis of the multiple issues related to the two Latin playwrights
Lejuste, Jean-Marc. "Novices et noviciats en Lorraine du XVIe au XVIIIe siècle." Thesis, Lyon, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019LYSE2066.
Full textDuring the modern era, the three Lorraine dioceses Metz, Toul and Verdun saw a very strong establishment of religious orders. This monastic force of Lorraine, inherited from the Middle Ages and the protection of the ducal family, concerns all the major European religious families and has enabled the emergence of reforms (such as that of the Benedictines of Saint-Vanne for example) or the creation of congregations that lasted well beyond the Revolution. We thought it was interesting to study this Monastic permanence of Lorraine from the perspective of novice and novitiate in order to try to understand if there is a specificity specific to these territories. Thanks to an impressive archival wealth, a database of more than 13,000 novices, both men and women, has been established for all religious orders where vows of religion are pronounced and established in the Lorraine dioceses. These data have opened the way to reflect on the birth of vocation, on the procedures for admission within the regulars, the recruitment rates and, more generally, the training of novices. So, our study develops on five themes following both the chronology of the novitiate and its major themes. The first is about the appearance of vocation and the contexts that allow it to flourish or not. Family impacts are very opposite. It is both an incentive factor that can go as far as forced vocation in specific contexts, and a factor of opposition, prompting candidates to seek parades to follow their life plan. In addition to the family, other actors are involved such as religious, books or significant events. The second theme develops the question of postulation with the choice of the religious order, the selection of candidates and the first teachings, a postulation that culminates in the ceremony of taking clothes with its symbolism. The third theme focuses on the influence of money with two issues. The first relates to the cost of the novitiate (pension, purchases of clothes, accessories necessary for engagement...) and the second on the socio-economic profile of the Lorraine candidates with the differences encountered from one order to order, from one sex to another. The fourth reflection questions the geography of the novitiate and the profiles of recruitment according to religious orders and centuries. Finally, the last is entirely devoted to the training of novices with their place within the monastic institution, learning according to gender and orders, the masters and mistresses of novices and the problems faced by novices until the ceremony of the profession that transforms the novice into a religious.This research has established, among other conclusions, that the novice is a character continually confronted with choices (enter or not in religion, choice of order, leave or stay ...) marked by contradictory influences of the family, of the order ... He is a complex and rich character because he allows us to understand the mechanisms that govern the voluntary or voluntary choice of a life devoted to God. This thesis helped to identify a recruitment profile marked by a chaotic 16th century followed by a spectacular upturn that was abruptly interrupted by the Thirty Years' Warbetween 1630 and 1650, before a slow ascent to the first third of the 18th century. century, followed by stabilization before a relative decline after 1770. We have also identified a trend towards Lorraine-centred recruitment, revealing a strong attachment to a nation, for most orders.Novices in Lorraine are therefore above all Lorraines faced, from their youth, with a dense monastic presence, with religious very involved in education and in family networks promoting the renewal of recruits

Full textAt the dawn of the French Renaissance, under Italian influence, Francis I of France creates a brilliant court life by transforming the Louvre palace and relying on the fascination of artistic works to give his courtiers an impressive image of his power. In the late sixteenth and early seventeenth century, France continues to refine the culture of her court : progressively, elegant and refined courtiers replace those warriors in old time, valorous for sure, but rough and coarse. The author presented here, Jacques Du Bosc, is a writer of the first half of the seventeenth century. His work, L’Honneste Femme aims to teach women how to behave in a society that attaches so much importance to the art of pleasing, and show them that such a behavior is not inconsistent with Christian life. A religious person of the Cordeliers Franciscan, he is known for his innovative visions for female education, and for his polemical writings against Jansenism. On female education, different from the humanist pedagogue Juan-Luis Vives, who applied concrete precepts to guide women’s behaviors in their daily life, Du Bosc would rather help them reflect and distinguish between good and evil by highlighting his stories of virtuous speech, usually drawn from mythology and antiquity. He is convinced that women, like men, can also consciously lead a virtuous life. Although this work is dedicated to women, the advice it contains could often concern both male and female Christians. Reprinted more than twenty times between 1632 and 1665, L’Honneste Femme can be considered as a bestseller of the salon literature in the seventeenth century. Besides, entering a Franciscan monastery at an early age, Du Bosc left his clerical position during the years of 1630-1640 for some unknown reasons. We could suggest that his life in the world has influenced him deeply when it comes to the practice of Christian life in society. Despite his clerical position, Du Bosc believes that “there is nothing more important than knowing the Art of Pleasing” to succeed in the world. This belief is conspicuous in the first two parts of his L’Honneste Femme, often akin to salon literature. Although Du Bosc relies on Christian teaching for his female education in the third part, his readers areelites in the society who are passionate about the salon culture. Written with Court and salon as a background, L’Honneste Femme proposed to teach Christians - and first Christian women - how to behave in a society where authority was pervasive, and the priority was to take others’ opinion into consideration. Such education may seem far from the concerns of the twenty-first century readers. Yet L’Honneste Femme can still serve as a reflective document guiding us to find the way which allows us to be successful in the society while remaining virtuous and to know the art of pleasing while staying sincere

The first one was then evoked as a good-natured, warlike figure and a Green Gallant who preferred the popular enjoyments of the boiled chicken and the bawdy songs of the Pont Neuf to the celebrations of the Valois court. His son was, as for him, considered as a taciturn monarch, dominated by his mother or by the almighty Cardinal Richelieu. Curiosity is then rarely aroused by their political personalities which, nevertheless livened up by the passion of the glory, conscious of their role as Kings of France, used both the art for authority purposes, opening the way to their illustrious descendant: Louis XIV.The first purpose of this study is to explore the initiation, if not the edification, of these sovereigns. The political uses of the splendoures were largely underlined, but the link between arts and political education is not much studied. Yet political learning and art education are conveyed by the "encounter" between the child and these shows. This encounter enables the prince to consider the potentialities of the luxurious, and to use these early experiences as a reference that he will accommodate to his profit afterward. Then what place was given to the music in the humanist formation received by the young Henri de Navarre? What was the role assigned to arts in the education of Louis XIII, while his mother, deserving representative of the Medici dynasty, made it a point of honor to provide her court with perpetual celebrations? Women undeniably played a first rank role in the implementation and the development of the court’s shows used to serve the royalist propaganda. This reflection around the role of these "muses" concerning the education of the sovereigns in the artistic sponsorship in addition to the political use of the arts will be the main focus of the first part. The second part is entirely dedicated to the propagandist use of the art. Under the first Bourbons, music developed as a wide range of appearances, psalms or hymns, popular songs or ‘‘airs de cour’’, ballets. All these forms emerged, anchoring more strongly their reigns in the tradition of the French monarchy. Under Henri IV and under his son, asserting a controversial power, the fêtes were part of the governmental strategy; they did not only play a decisive role in strengthening the power any more, they legitimized it, they consolidated it. This is how the dynasty of Bourbons was born
