France in the World
Author: Patrick Boucheron
Publisher: Other Press, LLC
ISBN: 1590519426
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 993
Book Description
Short essays offer a kaleidoscopic, “provocative history of France” and its place within the world—from its prehistoric frescoes to Coco Chanel to the terrorist attacks of 2015 (New Yorker). “A major work, exhaustive, controversial and fresh—and entirely relevant to Anglophone readers”—that redefines how we write about national and world history” (Guardian). Bringing together an impressive group of established and up-and-coming historians, this bestselling French history conceives of France not as a fixed, rooted entity—but instead as a place and an idea in flux, moving beyond all borders and frontiers, shaped by exchanges and mixtures. Presented in chronological order from 34,000 BC to modern day, each chapter covers a significant year from its own particular angle: the marriage of a Viking leader to a Carolingian princess proposed by Charles the Fat in 882; the Persian embassy’s reception at the court of Louis XIV in 1715; the Chilean coup d'état against President Salvador Allende in 1973 that mobilized a generation of French left-wing activists. France in the World combines the intellectual rigor of an academic work with the liveliness and readability of popular history. With a brand-new preface aimed at an international audience, this English-language edition will be an essential resource for Francophiles and scholars alike.
