Kuperty-Tsur, Nadine. "Se dire à la Renaissance : l'émergence du genre des mémoires et l'écriture personnelle à la Renaissance, en France." Paris 10, 1994. http://www.theses.fr/1994PA100024.
Full textThis study pleads for a new reading of memoirs and aims at rehabilitating the historical value of the personal discourse expressed in the memoirs. Writing your own life story was not a simple matter in the renaissance, and through the genre of the memoirs one can observe the modalities and conditions required for the emergence of this new cultural practice which will lead to the autobiography of the modern times. At each of these significant narrative stages, the memorialist account develops a pro domo plea articulated by means of the representation of self and of its different aspects in the evolution of the account. This study analyses the prefaces, the tales from childhood, the tales of the "golden age", the stories of disgrace, and the different endings of the memoirs. The last chapter summarizes the characteristics of memorialist writing which began in the renaissance and explain the genre's success even today

Full textThe first objective of this work was to draw the main lines of an esthetic of the alchemical literature at the end of the French Renaissance. Literature that was essentially considered here in relation to a tradition. Tradition of a knowledge affected by the making of the books and their circulation. Tradition ideally represented and used in the treatises dedicated to the Art of Hermes. Tradition metamorphosed in the poems and novels where the alchemical writing leads itself out of its first purposes in order to communicate a symbolic experiment to be realized by the reader
Michelin, Bernard. "Pont-Audemer, une petite ville de Normandie à la Renaissance, 1477-1551." Paris 4, 2005. http://www.theses.fr/2005PA040092.
Full textSources used for this thesis were 57 annual accounting books established by the city receivers of public money (‘'aides''), from 1477 to 1552. Hundreds of related fiscal documents were also used. These sources are today bound in ten registers totalling 3,000 pages. The 1,800 articles of income and 3,200 articles of expense were entered in a computer database to treat the set of information statistically. These exceptional sources allow us to understand the institutional, political, social and financial story of this little city in the late 15th and early 16th centuries. During that period of time, called ‘'La Renaissance'', Pont-Audemer was a fortified city and a royal city. The relations between the royal sovereigns and the city (known from about a hundred royal acts and requests of the inhabitants) were good, although the city did not respect instructions on the amounts of money to be devoted to the fortification. Pont-Audemer benefited from two major privileges : the dispense from ordinary annual imposition (‘'taille'') and the right to collect ‘'aides'', which were taxes on goods and salt. The city was ruled by some royal officers (the captain and the lieutenants of the bailliff of Rouen), the general assemblies of the inhabitants and the city council (9 to 13 members). The urban society and the local events of this period have also been studied. Over 75 years (1477-1552), the twelve receivers in charge of the municipal finances succeeded in weighing up the annual average expenses (1,567 ‘'livres tournois'') with the annual average revenues (1,612 livres). The most important expenses were the ordinary expenses (40 %), the expenses for fortification (20 %) and the money occasionally required by the kings (16 %), all of which represent ¾ of the total annual expenses. A final chapter of this thesis has been devoted to the salaries and the usual prices of the goods at that time. A catalogue of acts and its index are presented in volume II. The transcriptions of 4 accounting books and over 100 original documents are presented in volume III

Full textItry to show the philosophy of Descartes with his propect, in 1636, of "a universal science tendin to raise our nature to its highest degree of perfection", is in line with a general philosophical trend ahead atested in France by Raymond Sibiuda's "scientia de homine" in 1436, Charles de Bovelles's "humana scientia" in 1511, the formulation by Montaigne of the existence of a "moral science" in 1580, and the definition by Pierre Charron of "la vraye science de l'homme" (the true science of man) in 1604. I show how, as to the problem of man, philosophy and theology pregressively but radically differ. I also try to put into light the philosophical value of Charles de Bovelles's thought which is still too often underrated
Tin, Louis-Georges. "Tragédie et politique en France au XVIe siècle." Paris 10, 2003. http://www.theses.fr/2003PA100138.
Full textThe rebirth of tragedy in Renaissance France is linked to two phenomena: first, humanists eager to discover the writings of Antiquity; second, civil wars leading to the widespread impression that the kingdom's entire political life was itself a tragedy. Thus, new dramatists felt that in dealing with the past, they also dealt with the present. The political engagement of French tragedies in the 16th century is quite conspicuous, but after the Wars of Religion, the plays tend to express a sort of political consensus: they become less radical and are slowly replaced by pastoral, elegiac or courtly tragedies. On the whole this reflection is a contribution to the history of French Tragedy. It restores some of the elements missing from histories of the genre (tragedy during medieval times, during and after the Wars of Religion) and explains the political implications of the various Jewish, Greek, Roman or French tragedies written during the Renaissance
Turias, Odette. "Renée de France, duchesse de Ferrare, témoin de son temps : 1510-1575." Tours, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004TOUR2019.
Full textThe first part of this study is devoted to a critical edition of the letters of the duchess of Ferrara, from her mariage (1528) to her death (1575). The second part examines her epistolary activities, following three main lines : domestic, political and religious. As far as religion is concerned, Renée de France oscillates between evangelism and calvinism. In politics, there is a systematic hedging and her protectors are from each party, Anne de Montmorency's, Guise's or Coligny's. In France, in Italy, the princess sees the letter as a privileged way to negociate. We can find there some confessional subtle points that historiography forgot to mention, and we can gauge the efforts expended by this princess of the blood in order to gain freedom of consciensciousness, cult and government in Montargis

Full textThis doctoral thesis is looking into French academic works often considered as secondary. Through identifying and classifying French works, as well as setting them in the broader context of European musical theory, the author describes a corpus that has often been ignored and documents various influences from the Renaissance period in Europe. Studying the corpuses of each country contributed to a better apprehension of this thesis' main object: French treatises. Cross-study comparison of sources revealed links between some treatises of different countries. Has French music theory been influenced by foreign sources, or has it had an influence outside its borders? Through the description of the corpus and its sources, this thesis gives a fresh look on French music treatises
Martin, Ana Maria. "Les lettrés espagnols à l'université de Paris au XVIe siècle et leur contribution aux grands débats humanistes de leur temps." Paris 10, 2002. http://www.theses.fr/2002PA100147.
Full textIn the XVIth century, Paris was one of the oldest and one of the most prestigious academic town. Its famous university which counts the most important theological faculty in Europe attracted a vast number of students of various origins. Spanish people represent an important part of the foreign people who attended the different colleges of the Sorbonne to be, either as simple students or as teachers, or sometime both. Therefore, Paris has undoubtedly influenced their thoughts. A lot of them didn't leave any marks. Though, a relative important number of the most illustrious literate people of the Peninsula completed their intellectual training there. Our work has tried to find their tracks to highlight their contributions to the XVIth century thought from Trente Concile to the big humanist debates which punctuated that complex period of time. The study of the most famous Spanish people's thoughts such as Soto, Vitoria, and Vivés is a testimony of the universal value of the conclusions to which they ended. They seem to have anticipate the fist steps of international law. They also appear as the forerunners of human rights by their absolute assertion of the holy character of the human being. Thus, their questionings echo ours, through the centuries

Full textIlluminated production in Paris in the reign of Francis I, king of France, hasn’t been yet really defined. Just a few parisian anonymous artists, and three named have been discussed. Among the last, the Étienne Colaud’s one, is the less studied. The comparison between the documents that testify his career and conservated works of art allow one part to attribute to Etienne Colaud eighteen manuscripts, and, on the other part, to specify that he devoted himself to a librarian activity. It’s certainly the reason that Colaud was one of the most important illuminators, as we can suppose in regard to the texts and the patrons. Studying Colaud and archivals documents gives also informations about the way the illuminators used to work and their quantity. Studying the so named Colaud illuminated production allows to restore to Paris her importance during the reign of Francis I : illuminators were not less than thirty

Full textCrossroad of significant networks of printers, engravers and poets that link her to both Italy and Germany, the city of Lyons in the first half of the 16th century is a relatively independent and powerful center of a catholic and humanist reformation, and the place for philological, iconographic, symbolic and political experimentations that have decisively nurtured biblical exegesis. The central figure of this study, Jean de Vauzelles, is the incarnation of that conciliation of religion and humanism experimented in Lyons. Closely linked to the royal court of France, translator of Ottmar Nachtgall, a major figure of the German catholic reformation, as well as of Aretino's adaptations of the Bible based on contemporary paintings, Vauzelles is, with Sante Pagnini, active in the renewal of hebraic studies. He is also the first French translator of Colonna's Poliphile's Dream whose literary temes he has adapated in France even before Rabelais
Pierrot, Claire. "La fortune de l'Utopie de Thomas More en France à la Renaissance." Paris 10, 2002. http://www.theses.fr/2002PA100165.
Full textWe have to define the expectation of readers and then show how the reading of the work has been directed and finally study literary rewriting in the sixteenth century. Thus, texts show that More was known in France if we consider the Antimorus by De Brie and the writings which were released after his execution. The disclosure of Utopia was fast and it could be seen through editions which came with a varied paratext : an alphabet, a map, letters and poems. The French edition is outstanding for its didactic character and for its critical letter by Budé. The translations by Leblond, Aneau and Chappuys were rather faithful even if they censored the attacks against religion and politics. The Morian text draws its inspiration from Plato, Erasmus's Moria, and from journey stories : the comparison highlights the original treatment of fiction and the absence of real alterity. The status of imagination can't define the Utopian genre while political thinkers as Bodin reject Utopia in the name of realism and the refusal of community of goods. Literary rewritings, the works of Rabelais, and Alector, the novel by Aneau provide us with a definition of Utopia as a genre characterized by the complexity of enunciative strategies (contradiction, irony), and by the calling into question of the notion of ideal (presence of evil, relation to christianism), a genre which is opposed to the didactism of Antangil, in which Utopia is a mere pretext
Lombart, Nicolas. "Réinventer un "genre" : l'Hymne dans la poésie française de la Renaissance." Montpellier 3, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004MON30072.
Full textThe hymn, specially devoted to singing the praises of Gods in ancient pagan poetry or in ecclesiastical Christian poetry, is with the ode or the canticle one of the great lyric genres of eulogy in the XVIth century French poetry. But because of its abundance and heterogeneousness, the hymnary corpus presents two difficulties : the French hymn can take any possible shape (stanzaic or not, long or short. . . ), and it can sing the praises of a great diversity of subjects, either religious ones (Olympian deities, liturgical occasions, Christian notions. . . )or not (places, individuals, profane abstractions, events. . . ). There is no problem in giving the historical definition of the hymn : "It is a song with praise of God" wrote Saint Augustine whose definition has been taken up by the classical scholars about Greek hymns. However, when dealing with the French corpus, the problematic extension of the field covered by the praise of gods needs questioning. Far from defining an essence of the genre, the thesis proposes a pragmatical study of a large corpus of French pieces so as to set up a typology of the French hymn of the Renaissance which is regarded as the original acclimatization of both a pagan and Christian poetic inheritance. Three parts are devoted to the re-invention of the hymn : its slow emergence between 1500 and 1549 in its traditional ecclesiastical form ; its taken-up by the Brigade between 1550 and 1556 (from the ancient pagan species to the natural ronsardian hymns) ; its multiple militant takovers (both political and religious) between the 1560's and the end of the reign of Henry IV

Full textThe poet B. Spagnoli Mantuanus (1447-1516) had acquired great fame in Renaissance Europe. Often compared to Virgil, he drew his celebrity from his earlier works : the eclogues of Adulescentia, the Parthenice and the Silvae. From the end of the Quattrocento, an original poetic art arises through his works, combining the author's spirituality and the influence of the theory on literary style and emotional inspiration of Angelo Poliziano based upon Statius and Quintilian. In the Silvae - the 1503 anthology providing obvious evidence - Mantuan embraces the Alexandrian tradition brought back into fashion by Poliziano. He does this in order to take for himself the principle of an improvised epideictic writing, adapted to his ingenium and oriented towards self-expression. Arguing for the mediocritas of Horace, he promoted modern virtue and Christian meditation on glory and salvation. He chose to define the simplicity of a spontaneous celebration of faith as a writing principle, as opposed to the high poetic styles he considered to be impersonal and beyond reach. The influence of his poetry on the French poets of the Marot generation and the Pleiade is explained by the freedom of style inherent to the principles that Mantuan selected for his own poetry. These lie inbetween brief extemporary writing and search for erudite variety, as illustrated by the fragile impromptu of the Silvae where a refined celebration arose in his confession about the world and virtue. The afore-mentioned French authors, following Erasmus and various humanists of the 16th century, did consider him as a model of the lyrical poetry of the Renaissance, allying spirituality, praise and familiar inspiration

Full textIn the ninety seventies, Joan Jelly asked the question: "Did women have a Renaissance?". The American historian answered negatively. Corning back to this question is moderating it and wondering about the woman's role in the economical and conjunctural dynamism of the XVI th century, as well as about the evolution of the statute of women of power. By describing real cases, we want to stress structural problems of a society that destroys itself and then recreates it. Through a regional study, women are taken into account in the social and economical dynamism of the Renaissance society and we show what they gained and lost

Full textLes antiquites de paris by gilles corrozet (1550), la guide des chemins de france (1552) and l'agriculture et maison rustique (1564) by charles estienne, each propose, in common, a representation of french territory as the object to both a speech and a praxis. Studying the literary process employed in these representations allows us to see how the didactic thinking behind these two autors forges and constructs a poetic reasoning to this territory

Full textThis thesis studies The Pleiade's poetry of political celebration in relation to the epic, with the examples of Deffense as a statement of this project (1549) and Franciade as an incomplete realization of it (1572). The celebration poems are part of this project of a new Aeneid, which removes them from the ephemeral splendour of the celebration which created them in the first place ; these poems fall both within the moment of the festive event and the virtuality of the great work in which they must come to fruition. This great work, seen as a tale of foundation legitimating the hope of an immortal Empire, wants to shape History as well as depict an ideal image of the sovereign and present a poetic construction inserting the culture of Antiquity to the French genius. During Henri II's reign, the poets celebrate the princes as the heroes of the developing epic and explore the forms that this celebration of the Valois monarchy could take. The prophetic furor becomes the privileged statement of political lyricism. Yet, at the end of the 1550s, the formula only creates its own disenchanted repetition, or poets abandon it by ironically pointing out its vacuity. During the decade that follows, while the armed conflict creates historical uncertainty, the celebration poems disguise the princes as shepherds. At the beginning, the pastoral was a variation that could rejuvenate the initial project. It transforms into an alternative to an obsolete heroic model, related with political and poetic values of seduction, appeased gentleness, mannerist refinement in harmony with nature

Full textThe aim of this study is to determine the contributions of Oronce Fine (1494-1555) to Renaissance philosophy of mathematics. As first Royal lecturer in mathematics, Fine played a major part in the reassertion of the value of mathematical teaching in sixteenth-century France. Thus, his thought concerning mathematics allows to set forth the evolution of the epistemological and institutional status of these sciences within the parisian academic context of the period. Among the questions tackled by Fine in his definition of the status of mathematics, we consider, in a first part, the ontological status of mathematical things, the epistemological status of astronomy, the nature of mathematical demonstrations and principles, as well as the function of the quadrivium in the educative process. In a second part, our analysis of Fine’s conception on mathematics deals with the status of practical mathematics and of the sciences which are subalternated to mathematics, that is optics and geography, concluding with the definition of the profit which may be obtained from learning mathematics

Its archives are full of legal decisions reflecting the political, judicial, historical, social, cultural and musical reality of the Renaissance. This research investigates the Parliament's primary sources in order to extract information that complements our current knowledge of musical life in France between 1500 and 1600. This work offers a testimony of the way music was experienced in 16th-century French society through the Parliament’s vision and influence
Faisant, Étienne. "L’architecture à Caen du règne de Charles VIII au début du règne de Louis XIII." Thesis, Paris 4, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013PA040255.
Full textThe main town of Lower Normandy, Caen, developed an intense architectural activity during the Renaissance period. However, after having benefited from the work of important learned societies in the 19th century, the city has remained on the sidelines of the renewed interest in urban studies of recent years. Some great monuments have not yet been considered, their study being, admittedly, often complicated by the extensive destructions caused by 1944 bombing. Examining religious, civil and military architecture, this thesis proposes a study of the architectural creation in Caen from the late 15th century to the early 17th century and discusses three key factors. The inventory of the works known through the archival records, the archaeological analysis or the scholarly publications highlights phases of high or low activity, and therefore makes clear the history of the town and its influence on constructions. To understand the material conditions of architectural creation, the role and status of owners, architects and workers, together with the origin, custom and conditions of implementation of the materials must be considered. The analysis of the buildings is separated into two parts: it focuses on the typological and stylistic aspects of the works. In this way, it highlights their original character and assesses their implication in exchange networks between the provinces, towns and neighborhoods. This synthesis is completed by a collection of files and of smaller records dedicated to the buildings erected in Caen from the reign of Charles VIII to the beginning of the reign of Louis XIII

Full textThe way of playing for Renaissance dances has its own codes and its own demands, as in other musical repertoires. In the dance pieces printed for several voices in Europe from 1528 (first book of dance pieces printed by Attaingant) until 1588 (first edition of the Orchésographie by Thoinot Arbeau), one should notice out the melodic, rhythmic and counterpointistic recurrences in the scores. On the other hand, one should also define each dance characteristic (tempo, mesure and metric). Those analysis allowed to spot, among other things, two large families of recreational dances: the side dances and the walking dances. Each of them have their own requirements in terms of interpretation. For example, the first ones concentrate on the fact of accompanying the directions meanwhile the second ones need some articulation on each foot step. One only needs then to put into perspective those observations to excel in the “art ménétrier” (“minstrel art” or art to play for dancing)

Full textFor more than twenty years (1543-1565), Jean de Bretagne, duke of Étampes, governs Brittany as King’s governor and lieutenant. Heir of the Counts of Penthièvre, he became a faithful servant of the Valois to whom he owed each one of his honors. Some renewed sources, both epistolary and administrative, make it possible to seize the profession ofprovincial governor in the process of integration to the kingdom of France, between the reign of Francis I and the first wars of Religion. If the armed defense role of a reputed border province is central, the governor deals with many other problems on a daily basis. Above all else, he is supposed to be the link between the province and the king. Broker but also intercessor, the governor is undoubtedly a preeminent political actor in the province. First gentleman of the province, all his networks, influences and powers must be analyzed as a whole to better understand the daily life of a type of royal servant often misjudged and misunderstood by historiography

Full textNineteenth century’s French artistic literature states a dualism in its representation of Italian forms’ appearance in France. Nuanced opinions were rare in between those who pretended the decadence of French genius and those who, contrariwise, extolled the architectural renovation carried out by agents of the Peninsula. Léon Palustre distinguished himself in the historiographical landscape by a dialectical approach generating a reconciling synthesis of styles. This work analyses the topos of a dissertation where history, rhetoric and attributionnism postulate a symbiosis between Renaissance and national genius
BERGES, ELISE. "Le metier de peintre a la renaissance dans le sud-ouest de la france." Toulouse 2, 1995. http://www.theses.fr/1995TOU20004.
Full textThis research deals with native or visiting painters in the albi area and their artistic production, between the last quarter of the 15th century and the first half of the 17th century. It includes a collection of identifying notes, one for each painter, and thus gives the outlines of a catalogue. The purpose of the study itself is to define the notion of "work of the painter" through archive documents - apprenticeship contracts, work leases or prix-faits, accounts and reports, proceedings deeds, wills - in the particular, economical, religious, cultural and artistic context of a priviliged rural area, of its potential and effective clientele and of its requirements. The aim of this study is to show that the evolution of knowledge and craftsmanship, together with the appropriation of the plastic elements of the renaissance by modest local painters - an evolution discovered through works in situ - is not only due to the attractioin of a nearby artistic centre - namely the toulouse centre - or to an exceptional patronage namely the amboises in albi - but follows the choices of an era and their means of diffusion

Full textThis analysis deals with the representation of King Francis I wihthin the Italian peninsula spanning the period from 1515 to 1530. In the collective imagination, King Francis I is known as the Knight-King, the « Father and Restorer of Letters » and a Renaissance patron of the arts. He is equally remembered for his contribution to architecture, his hunting activities and amorous conquests, but also for his captivity and his alliance with the Turks. This study aims to broaden the range of King Francis I's multifaceted depictions by adopting a new Italian prespective in order to cast a new light on his representation. From the very beginning of his reign, this highly manifold monarch appears to have been haunted by the idea of dominating the peninsular political arena. The study is based on a corpus of letters written by ambassadors and papal nuncios as well as on historical and literary works. Emhphasis has been laid on several milestones in the history of Italy's relationships with its sovereign : the victory at the battle of Marignano and the King's meeting in Bolonia with Pope Leo X in 1515, the failure of the imperial election in 1519, the defeat at the Battle of the Bicocca, in 1522, and at the Battle of Pavia in 1525, as well as the Neapolitan campaigns of 1528. This thesis demonstrates that the king's image does not solely rely on his successes and defeats, but it largely depends on the changeing shifts in Italian political hopes and fears of the day. Our findings show that some of the depictions of King Francis I belie all expectations. In 1529, the king signs a treaty in Cambrai with Charles V and abandons his Italian allies to his long-lasting enemy. From that point onwards, a shift in politics occurs: the king does not wholly give up his Italian ambitions, but his representation changes, adapting to new political stakes

Full textAfter an update on the state of research on the history of History of Art, the thesis questions the concept of the Italian Renaissance from the classical aesthetics (Quatremère) and the romantic reaction in favor of Gothic (Lassus, Viollet-le-Duc, Didron) and Primitives (Rio). The author makes a comparison between the definition of Renaissance given by Michelet and the contemporary debate between supporters of Gothic and supporters of Renaissance. It is noted -at the same time-, the emergence of new data related to race and “milieu” in the debate on the Renaissance (Beulé, Ramée, Viollet-le-Duc) who insists on his Latin and Mediterranean origin. Moreover, the thesis thoroughly analyzes the vision of Taine (based on the exaltation of the body, shape and paganism), Renan and Gebhart (who place the origins of the Renaissance to the Christian Middle Ages) according to the new philosophical and ideological climate of the second half of the century. A new side of the debate opens with the doctrines of Courajod, who places the origin of the Renaissance in France in the fourteenth century, and the theory of Müntz supporter of the classical aesthetics and advocate of Italian origin and the definition of Renaissance as a "Golden Age" of mankind. The last part of the thesis follows the development of the debate in the twentieth century, and traces the 'victory' of the supporters of the Middle Ages, (Mâle, Lemonnier, André Michel, Vitry, against Louis Dimier), the crisis in the history of culture overshadowed by the formalism (Bertaux, Hourtiq Faure), the definition of Renaissance as an extension of the Middle Ages by Focillon, concluding with the 'reform' of the history of culture made by André Chastel and his new definition of “Renaissance”

Full textDuring the early modern era, the european overseas expansion intensified the circulation of goods and people around the World. From the 16th century, the Iberian expansion contributed to change the relationship between the Europeans and the terrestrial globe and was followed by the production of a vast array of texts and materials, which were sometimes printed, and then translated into a variety of European languages. By examining various translations intro French, published in Paris and Lyon around 1500, of some sixteenth century accounts of the « New Worlds » and other « foreign lands » (among others the writings of Gonzalo Fernández de Oviedo, Fernão Lopes de Castanheda, Paolo Giovio or Giovanni Battista Ramusio), the thesis reviews the way through which a renewed knowledge of the world is locally produced. By focusing on the entire translation process, from production to its multiple appropriation, it becomes possible to understand how one makes the world known in sixteenth-century France

Full textThe purpose of this dissertation is to study Italian translations of French chivalric narrative and French translations of Italian chivalric narrative from the late 15th century to 1560. The work lays at the intersection of two fields of study: medieval texts still read during the Renaissance and literary vernacular exchanges between France and Italy. For this purpose, I have studied some almost unknown French and Italian texts and compared each of them to the original in the other language. Regarding France, I have examined the translations of Guerrin Meschino, Morgante il Gigante, Orlando Innamorato and Orlando Furioso. As far as Italy is concerned, I have analyzed the translation of Guiron le Courtois preserved in a manuscript from Florence (first quart of 16th century.) The same chivalric romance of Guiron was later adapted in Italian verses by the court poet Luigi Alamanni, at the request of the French monarch (1547). Finally, I have studied some Italian translations from French (Meliadus, Lancelot and Perceforest) as part of a chivalric editorial collection published in Venice in the mid-16th century.In addition to the analysis of the translations, I have broadly investigated the chivalric romance with special regard to its late editorial evolution and its reception, especially, the public reception, the invention of a “modern” romance in the forties, the blurred boundaries of the chivalric romance genre and the perception of these texts in the 16th century imaginary

Full textThis thesis aims at the comparative study of libraries of laity and clerics in the north of France and northern Italy between 1400 and 1520. The relations between the French and Italian territories are no longer to be demonstrated, marked for the beginning of our period by the progressive resolution of the Great Schism and, for the end, by the Italian wars between 1494 and 1516. In the fifteenth century and up to the beginning of the sixteenth century, cultural phenomena of the first order such as dissemination of humanism and, on the material level, the invention of printing spread throughout Europe. We have chosen to focus on "traditional" categories of possessors such as the secular clergy, but also to emerging categories of possessors, including the bourgeoisie

Full textThe main point of this work is to clarify the process of convergence and confrontation between oriental and occidental culture and ideology during the french revolution and the expedition in Egypt, with the concern to limit the process of the egyptian renaissance during the first half of the 19 th centry, so we are exposing the way with these two civilizations are melt together in Egypt to give birth to the modern egyptian linking way. This leads to focus in the first part of the work on the egyptian's society's manifestation and internal dynamism, the socio-cultural and political transformation in Egypt that enabled the occidental cultural penetration. All this will be further linked to a second part of analysis of the modern egyptian thinking way in relation with occident , when the enphasies is on the process of semilarities acculturations, the transmissive channels and occidentalization agents that paved the way for the penetration of the occidental culture into the oriental one. Finally, in a third part, according to socio-cultural data, we will reveal the originality of the modern egyptian thinking, its renaissance and its development

Full textTransliteration is the transcription sign by sign from a writing system to another. Being a matter of history, linguistics and study of writing systems – or grammatology – this work aims at identifying the issues of the quite recent notion of transliteration, as applied to a period when it was not formulated in this way, the French Renaissance. It delineates the respective fields of transliteration, transcription, translation and code-switching. This thesis takes as a starting point the recent findings on Hebrew in the French humanism and makes use of the advances in archeology and in cognitive science regarding the history of the Latin alphabet and its understanding by its users. It relies on a corpus of alphabets, grammars and bibles of the 16th century to link the diachronic and diatopic dimensions of writing systems. It shows that conversion of scripts as a practice relies less on the specific features of the source script than on a considerable extension of the target script

Full textWhy have so many sovereigns, just as so numerous captains and statesmen chosen it as their emblem at this period? This work analyses how an allegory, created for the edification of the faithful, becomes part of the political vocabulary. The “Renaissance of Antiquity” appears to be more the recovery and the adaptation of medieval culture to new needs, in particular to the development of political communication forms. Its expressions differ according to the types of documents considered. A pluridisciplinary approach of much varied sources anables us to bring out the specificity of each one of its uses. Censorship increases from 1530 onwards, Catholics and Protestants still use the allegory of Fortune in their rhetorical fighting through words and images

Full textFrom the Deffence, et illustration de la langue françoyse (1549) to Ronsard's tomb texts collected by Binet in 1586, the literary sociability depicted in some three hundred volumes of poetry gathering together about seventy poets is regarded as the mean to construct identities both collective and individual. Indeed the flurry of common topics is at the origin of a literary emulation and makes the emergence of a "poetic field" noticeable; so the position of each poet is both defined with an identification to groups or with a differentiation to defend their proper styles.Being "a poet" is the identity collectively valued. Altogether on Marot's tracks, the point is to make this "craft" prestigious - printed publication makes it visible - and to convince the greats of its political importance. The unifying label is subdivided in collective identities with restricted outlines like a popular topic (the "Amours"), a language ("poëtes françoys") or eventually a location (the poets from the river Clain, the Gascon poets, etc). Therefore this fragmentation leads to an attempt of classification of value. This is at the origin of disagreements (some provincial poets against the emerging Parisian milieu for instance), even conflicts (modern poets against old poets, Christian poets versus pagan poets, etc), as well as an increase of leading figures. Meanwhile each author attempts to defend their own singularities, notably by working on the ethos of the solitary poet or of the melancholic poet and endeavours to open new poetic paths, within a collective movement defending originality. Hence the tension opposing the hierarchical organisation and the assertion of the right to be different and thus unique
Rees, Agnès. "La poétique de la "vive représentation" et ses origines italiennes en France à la Renaissance." Thesis, Reims, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011REIML013/document.
Full textThe purpose of this thesis is to emphasize the importance of "vivid description" in the poeticalrevival, which was started in the middle of the sixteenth century around Ronsard and Du Bellay by a group of young poets, who will name themselves "la Pléiade". The poetics of "vivid representation", or "vivid description", expressions borrowed from poets and theoreticians of the years around 1550, is, in a context of competition and rivalry not only with pictorial arts, but also with neolatin and italian poetry, closely bound to the wish to illustrate and enrich the french language by means of enhancing poetry's power of expression. Although vivid description represents a heritage of the energeia of the Ancients, it is by employing specifical figures of speach, such as ekphrasis and hypotyposis, and by developing a florid language, that it asserts itself in the lyrical poetry of the years 1550, where it introduces the typical patterns of heroic style. Our work consists in a definition of the issues and processes linked to this poetry by studying its elaboration and the way it was put into practice in poetical and theoretical french writings published between 1547 and 1560, and by retracing the origins of this notion to italian arts of poetry and treatises

Full textDuring the 16th century, the Mediterranean shipbuilding –especially in Italy– was renowned for its quality. It held a technical culture inherited by an ancient tradition that had passed down orally from one generation to the next. But today it is largely unknown, since, to the scarcity of documentation in writing, is added a poor archaeological documentation. The discovery of the Mortella shipwrecks (Saint-Florent, Upper Corsica, France) in 2005 and 2006, and the programme of archaeological excavations of one of them –the Mortella III– undertaken in 2010, highlight an architecture from the 16th century that belongs to the Mediterranean tradition and offer the prospect of contributing to fill the existing gaps. After studying the archaeological data from the five excavation campaigns done on this wreck, our research sets as key goal identifying ‘indicators’ such as ‘technical and architectural traits’ which can contribute to the definition of a model of shipbuilding from the 16th century in the Mediterranean, initiated by previous archaeological research started in the eighties. In this perspective, the analysis is based on comparisons with archaeological data from other wrecks of that period. Moreover, it also relies on the references provided by the written sources, as well as the iconography. Finally, the archival researches undertaken in the margins of the archaeological work have allowed to link the wrecks of the Mortella to their history, in this case to the Italian wars of 1527. In this regard, the archaeological study –which remains the epicenter of this thesis– is usefully supplemented by the historical research
Rollet, Jean. "Arnaut de Moles." Paris 4, 1997. http://www.theses.fr/1997PA040161.
Full textArnaut de Moles has painted the stained windows in Auch. Nobody knew anything about his country, his masters, neither when he died. M. Paul Raymond, an archivist in Pau, has identified a painter named Arnaut de Moles, living in Saint-Sever (Landes), who died before 1521. Namesakes have been recorded beyond 1650 with a high proportion of painters or glass painters (1/8), so that it indicated a very large dynasty, proceeding from fathers to sons or nephews, or even cousins. A statistical study has allowed to determine the number of active workshops in Gascony during the XVIth century and what they achieved. A survey of stained glass (200 photos) in that area has revealed three other spots with Arnaut's signature : Cahuzac, Fleurance, Lombez. Conversely, undue ascriptions, such as Martel, have been discarded. 100 photographs covering most of the stained glass windows created in France between 1490 and 1510, show up that Arnaut de Moles has never found any significant model among contemporary glass painters. Jean Marre, a subsidiary to the archbishop, has conceived the pro, gram. He has discovered the talented youth and he sent him in 1496 via Avignon to Mantegna, then, the prince of painters. Arnaut studied in Mantova and Padova, and very little in Firenza. He had no opportunity to see Roma. Jean Marre had been appointed bishop in condom, Auch building subsided. Arnaut executed minor jobs in Bayonne (1500), he then worked in Lombez. Later (1506-1513), he performed his masterwork in Auch and finally in Fleurance. He is famed as the “maitre de Condom” and he would supervise all glass works from Bordeaux up to Toulouse. F. De Clermont-Lodève, Auch archbishop, who was considered as the father of the whole, has, in fact, never participated in the achievement of that most famous work, which should allow Arnaut de moles to be registered among the best French painters
