Abstract

From 1500 to 1825, Europe remained in an almost perpetual state of war. Religion, politics, economics, and dynastic ambition all played a role in the turmoil that spread across the continent. War-related printed images also proliferated during this time, serving a variety of functions - commemorative, propagandistic, iconic, narrative, eulogistic, critical, or instructional. This handsome volume is the first graphic print survey of the theme of war in the early-modern period. Featuring work by such artists as Dürer, Goya, and Gericault, the book presents varied images of soldiers; battles (including specific historical events); production, innovation, and instruction in arms and armour; and, representations of abstract concepts related to war and peace. The text includes essays by eminent authorities that illuminate artistic and historical issues of the era.

Abstract

The art of the Netherlands (Dutch and Flemish) is unique in Early Modern Europe in its concern for military cruelty against civilians, principally the peasantry. Decimated by time and changes in taste, this popular iconography proves varied and extensive, stretching from Bruegel to and past Rubens. 'Massacres of the Innocents' continue to be a favourite subject through the Eighty Years War, in contrast to ruling-class glorifications of war. Dutch patriotic siege prints lay claim to 'scientific' precision in landscapes free of military terror, while the idea of military conquest is presented as generous rather than cruel in the ever-popular figure of Scipio Africanus. Most of the pictorial material is unfamiliar, some of it even to specialists and never before published; new light is shed on the more familiar phenomena of the civic guard groups and Ter Borch courtier-officers, 'good soldiers' overcoming a bad image.

Abstract

La guerre, aujourd'hui comme hier, ne cesse d'ébranler le monde de défier la raison ; tout comme elle ne cesse de fasciner les hommes et de provoquer leur imagination. L'humanité, du plus loin qu'on s'en souvienne, a toujours connu et fait la guerre. N'est-elle pas, depuis Hérodote et Thucydide, le premier objet d'histoire ? Dans la guerre, les hommes sont mis à nu, dans leur chair comme dans leur imaginaire. Or, la façon dont les hommes perçoivent la guerre n'est pas sans conséquence sur la guerre elle-même... En période de guerre, les tensions voire les contradictions entre l'expérience du réel et sa signification apparaissent au grand jour. Les normes sociales les plus élémentaires disparaissent devant les violences qui se déchaînent. Face à l'arbitraire de la violence, à l'impuissance ressentie, à la mort, à la souffrance, à la faim, on voit ressurgir parfois les imaginaires les plus archaïques - imperceptibles en temps de paix, mais pourtant agissants. Or, ces imaginaires réactivés jusqu'à l'exacerbation ont un impact sur le déroulement même de la guerre, ainsi que sur la vision de l'homme, de la vie et du monde pendant et après les conflits. Ce livre a choisi d'interroger les guerres dans la longue durée, sous l'angle des représentations collectives. La guerre n'est donc pas d'abord étudiée comme événement politique, technique ou militaire, mais bien comme révélateur des systèmes de représentations qui constituent les sociétés depuis l'Antiquité jusqu'à nos jours, agissent sur la guerre et se transforment sous l'effet de celle-ci.
