Taking their inspiration from the work of Thomas N. Bisson, to whom the book is dedicated, the contributors to this volume explore the experience of power in medieval Europe: the experience of those who held power, those who helped them wield it, and those who felt its effects. The seventeen essays in the collection, which range geographically from England in the north to Castile in the south, and chronologically from the tenth century to the fourteenth, address a series of specific topics in institutional, social, religious, cultural, and intellectual history. Taken together, they present three distinct ways of discussing power in a medieval historical context: uses of power, relations of power, and discourses of power. The collection thus examines not only the operational and social aspects of power, but also power as a contested category within the medieval world. The Experience of Power suggests new and fruitful ways of understanding and studying power in the Middle Ages.

Longtemps, la nation a été le lieu par excellence d'un usage intensif de l'histoire. Elle apparaît aujourd'hui comme une échelle parmi d'autres, souvent moins investie que le local ou le régional et fragilisée par l'émergence de niveaux supranationaux. Cette nouvelle configuration bouleverse l'économie des usages de l'histoire. Il en résulte notamment une concurrence des passés tandis qu'un nouveau type d'historicité se développe dans lequel « rendre présent » voire « sortir du temps » l'emportent sur l'esquisse d'un devenir commun et où le patrimonial prend le pas sur l'historique. La situation des historiens professionnels s'en trouve modifiée. Elle est affectée tant par la démultiplication des producteurs d'histoire que par la concurrence des associations à vocation mémorielle ou patrimoniale. Fondé sur une série d'études topiques, l'ouvrage analyse comment s'opère la confrontation des mémoires et des histoires qui singularise la scène contemporaine et les enjeux historiographiques et civiques qui en découlent.
