After initial ambivalence about distinctive garb for its ministers, early Christianity developed both liturgical garments and visible markers of clerical status outside church. From the ninth century, moreover, new converts to the faith beyond the Alps developed a highly ornate style of liturgical attire; church vestments were made of precious silks and decorated with embroidered and woven ornament, often incorporating gold and jewels. Making use of surviving medieval textiles and garments; mosaics, frescoes, and manuscript illuminations; canon law; liturgical sources; literary works; hagiography; theological tracts; chronicles, letters, inventories of ecclesiastical treasuries, and wills, Maureen C. Miller in Clothing the Clergy traces the ways in which clerical garb changed over the Middle Ages. Miller's in-depth study of the material culture of church vestments not only goes into detail about craft, artistry, and textiles but also contributes in groundbreaking ways to our understanding of the religious, social, and political meanings of clothing, past and present. As a language of power, clerical clothing was used extensively by eleventh-century reformers to mark hierarchies, to cultivate female patrons, and to make radical new claims for the status of the clergy. The medieval clerical culture of clothing had enduring significance: its cultivation continued within Catholicism and even some Protestant denominations and it influenced the visual communication of respectability and power in the modern Western world. Clothing the Clergy features seventy-nine illustrations, including forty color photographs that put the rich variety of church vestments on display.

À la fin du XIXe siècle, la protection du jeune enfant prend forme en Belgique. Des médecins et des femmes philanthropes créent des œuvres, les consultations de nourrissons, qui visent à apprendre aux mères à soigner leurs nourrissons suivant les nouveaux préceptes de l’hygiène. Durant la Première Guerre mondiale, ces œuvres connaissent un formidable essor et finissent par couvrir le pays. En 1919, un organisme officiel est institué pour assurer la protection des enfants : l’Œuvre nationale de l’enfance (scindée dans les années 1980 pour devenir l’Office de la naissance et de l’enfance et Kind en Gezin). À la veille de la Deuxième Guerre mondiale près de la moitié des jeunes enfants y sont suivis de manière plus ou moins prolongée. Ce livre revient sur l’histoire de ce vaste mouvement éducatif qui visait particulièrement à former les femmes à leurs rôles maternels. Il évoque la médicalisation de l’enfance, de la grossesse et de l’accouchement, mais aussi la naissance et la professionnalisation de l’aide sociale aux familles précarisées. Il montre le rôle essentiel joué par les médecins, les femmes philanthropes, les travailleuses sociales et les organisations ouvrières féminines chrétiennes et socialistes dans la gestion de la protection infantile et maternelle. Ce faisant, il met en exergue les enjeux majeurs d’une politique sanitaire et familiale : enjeux sociaux, politiques, démographiques et sexués. L’histoire de la protection du jeune enfant s’inscrit en effet dans une démarche complexe, au confluent de l’histoire médicale, de l’histoire sociale, de l’histoire politique et de l’histoire des femmes. En décryptant un aspect de l’histoire de la protection infantile, ce livre enrichit sans conteste la réflexion et la compréhension des discours actuels sur le bien-être de l’enfant
