Réflexions sur l'évolution du sens de l'histoire, depuis les idées grecques jusqu'aux philosophes du XXe siècle, en passant par les interprétations religieuses, la Révolution française et le marxisme. L'Histoire a-t-elle un sens? L'antiquité gréco-latine n'en concevait aucun. L'antiquité sémitique, les judéo-hellénismes et christianismes ont chacun proposé le leur, lequel a servi de motif à nombre de conflits. Les idéaux des Lumières, avec leur conviction d'un progrès continu dans la marche d'une humanité globalisée, puis les communismes et le national-socialisme ont renouvelé les propositions d'un sens de l'Histoire à accomplir. Du monde antique pour lequel le destin des cités se forgeait à force de courage et de ténacité, jusqu'au laisser-faire du Grand Marché auto-régulateur des économies modernes, il y a des impensés à l'oeuvre dans les représentations collectives de l'Histoire. Ce livre souligne combien la compréhension d'un temps historique, avec ses inconnues, diffère de celle d'un sens de l'Histoire, bardé de certitudes ou d'espérances. Dans une époque où dominent les incertitudes relatives aux lendemains immédiats, chacun peut trouver, au fil d'une telle enquête sur la variabilité des sens de l'Histoire, de quoi méditer sur son propre devenir, et sur celui de la communauté à laquelle il appartient.

The belief that it is our right and destiny to remake foreign societies in our image has endured from the early decades of colonisation to our current crusade to implant American-style democracy in the Muslim Middle East.

'Unto thy seed I have given this land.' From the moment of God's covenant with Abraham in the Old Testament, the idea that a people are chosen by God has had a central role in shaping national identity. Chosen Peoples argues powerfully that sacred belief remains central to national identity, even in an increasingly secular, globalized modern world. In this important new study, Anthony D. Smith goes in search of the deep Judeo-Christian roots of the many manifestations of national identity. This rich and timely contribution to current debates about nationalism explains the complex historical reasons behind often violent modern conflicts around issues of land, culture, religion, and politics. Tracing the development of individual nations over many centuries, it offers fascinating insights into the religious and cultural foundations of countries such as Great Britain, the United States, Israel, France, and Germany. The argument draws on a wide range of examples from historic landscapes in Ireland, Switzerland and Egypt, myths of Arthurian Britain, Holy Russia, and Byzantium, through memories of a 'Golden Age', to the modern commemoration of the 'Glorious Dead', and of victims of war.
