Sommario/riassunto |
|
À partir de la seconde moitié du Xe siècle et jusqu'au XIIIe siècle, le Vivarais, comme la plupart des régions d'Europe occidentale à cette époque, se couvre de châteaux. Généralement de taille très modestes, ceux-ci sont souvent mal identifiés et mal interprétés en raison de l'image traditionnelle du château médiéval qui renvoie, en réalité, dans l'immense majorité des cas, à des forteresses postérieures aux années 1350. Faisant appel à une large documentation écrite et iconographique, fréquemment inédite, et aux ressources de l'archéologie, l'auteur dresse ici un état des lieux, aussi exhaustif que possible, de 175 sites fortifiés édifiés entre les Xe et XIIIe siècles en Vivarais, à l'intérieur d'un espace historiquement homogène. |

The book tells the adventures of five American prisoners of war on an uncharted island in the South Pacific. Begining in the American Civil War, as famine and death ravage the city of Richmond, Virginia, five northern POWs decide to escape in a rather unusual way - by hijacking a balloon! This is only the beginning of their adventures... |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
With each day that passed after the 2003 invasion, the United States seemed to sink deeper in the treacherous quicksand of Iraq's social discord, floundering in the face of deep ethno-sectarian divisions that have impeded the creation of a viable state and the molding of a unified Iraqi identity. Yet as Adeed Dawisha shows in this superb political history, the story of a fragile and socially fractured Iraq did not begin with the American-led invasion--it is as old as Iraq itself. |

Dawisha traces the history of the Iraqi state from its inception in 1921 following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire and up to the present day. He demonstrates how from the very beginning Iraq's ruling elites sought to unify this ethnically diverse and politically explosive society by developing state governance, fostering democratic institutions, and forging a national identity. Dawisha, who was born and raised in Iraq, gives rare insight into this culturally rich but chronically divided nation, drawing on a wealth of Arabic and Western sources to describe the fortunes and calamities of a state that was assembled by the British in the wake of World War I and which today faces what may be the most serious threat to survival that it has ever known. Featuring Dawisha's insightful new afterword on recent political developments, Iraq is required reading for anyone seeking to make sense of what's going on in Iraq today, and why it has been so difficult to create a viable government there. |
