"Fue hacia fines de 1826 cuando el ministro de la guerra, Gómez Pedraza, pudo hacer maniobrar, en la plaza de armas de México, el primer batallón completamente armado y equipado según el gusto moderno o el modelo francés". Así califica Claudio Linati, en su libro Costumes Civils, Militaires et Religieux du Mexique, la organización del ejército a cinco años del nacimiento de México, como país independiente. Esa observación autoriza preguntar sobre el papel que jugó francés" -hombres, ideas, mercancías y capitales- en la modernización del país, y a indagar su contribución en el tránsito de la sociedad novohispana a la nacional. Fruto de dos coloquios del provecto "México Francia", esté libro reúne veinticinco estudios, articulados en cinco ejes analíticos (El inmigrante: imagen y realidad; De lo privado a lo público; La República de las letras; El medio de la Medicina; y Élites, familias e individuos), donde historiadores mexicanos y franceses abordan esa problemática. Además de utilizar la perspectiva mundializadora y la reflexión sobre las sensibilidades, ellos ponen a prueba una escala pequeña de análisis, la historia de vida, cuyos alcances cuestionan la historia tradicional que excluye la participación de actores extranjeros en la construcción de la nación.

The late-nineteenth century in Europe was a period of profound political, social, and technological change. One result of these changes was the rise in France of an upper-bourgeois bohemian class. Many of its members stimulated interest in unique forms of artistic expression such as illustrated books. On account of their influence, an atmosphere of intense bibliophilic activity came to define French culture at the turn of the century. The New Bibliopolis explores the role of amateurs in promoting the book arts in France during this period.Drawing on extensive original research, Willa Z. Silverman looks at the ways in which book collectors supported print culture. She shows how, through the admiration demonstrated by collectors for this medium, print came to be a crucial part of popular conceptions of aesthetics. As collectors, publishers, authors, designers, and directors of bibliophile societies, reviews, and small presses, these book lovers became passionate and prolific interlocutors of the printed word in a uniquely artistic epoch. Silverman analyzes subjects as diverse as the relationship between book collecting and aesthetic and cultural currents such as Symbolism; the gendered nature of book collecting; the increased collaboration between authors and illustrators; and the marketing of fine books at international exhibits.The New Bibliopolis is an important contribution to the study of book history, French sociocultural history, and fine and decorative arts.

Travel narratives were the principal source of knowledge about the lands of the Near East and the Indian Ocean Basin in 17th-century France. Claiming the authority of first-hand observation, they paradoxically rely for their legitimization on the tropes of an established literary tradition. The status of these texts remained ambiguous, not least because of their anecdotal depictions of great riches, brutality or sexual promise. Drawing on the insights of post-colonial scholarship, this study tackles a question given scant attention in previous work and suggests that beyond the hazy representation of the Orient, an opposition emerges between the threatening Near East and the indolent East Indies. Distinguishing recognizable representations from those generated by new encounters, this book questions the feasibility of cultural representation through travel, exploring a large corpus of original sources written by French ecclesiastics, gentlemen-travellers, ambassadors and adventurers. Linguistic, religious, cultural or geographical barriers meant most travellers remained distanced from the peoples about whom they would simultaneously become authoritative. The encounter was further transformed in narratives that were intended to entertain and to satisfy the criterion of curiosité . The ‘Oriental’ that emerges is a supremely variable entity, alternately naked or veiled, barbaric or civilized, menacing or attractive.

Pourquoi le Mexique a-t-il représenté durant près d'un siècle un modèle pour le « développement » ? Comment expliquer que les populations et les territoires de ce pays aient été mis en scène avant tout par des anthropologues ? Dans quelle mesure, en France, les géographes ont-ils été les principaux organisateurs de la recherche sur l'Amérique latine depuis le milieu du XXesiècle ? Comment, dans le Nouveau Monde, les sciences sociales s'agencent-elles entre elles autrement qu'en Europe ? Que signifie la production de données sur les sociétés des pays latino-américains et comment les transforme-t-on en panoramas organisés ? Autant de questions auxquelles ce livre tente de proposer des réponses, en retraçant la trajectoire universitaire et intellectuelle de l'un des latino-américanistes français les plus féconds des dernières décennies. À partir de souvenirs personnels, de témoignages de collègues et d'amis, d'archives publiques ou privées et de publications diverses, Claude Bataillon dresse pour la seconde moitié du XXe siècle le panorama d'un latino-américanisme auquel il a participé de multiples façons. Si cet ouvrage retrace avant tout un itinéraire personnel, il propose également l'histoire d'une collectivité faite à la fois d'individus et d'institutions. Ces dernières constituent les meilleurs traceurs des évolutions intellectuelles, les meilleurs révélateurs des regards que les latino-américanistes ont échangés avec les Latino-Américains depuis la Seconde Guerre mondiale.
