Comment comprendre les relations entre la France et l'Orient au Moyen Âge ? La méthode des transferts culturels place au coeur de la réflexion la circulation, les interactions et les adaptations des langages, des idées, des biens et des modes de vie, ainsi que les résistances. Le commerce, les pèlerinages et la croisade ont instauré un va-et-vient incessant entre mondes latin, byzantin et arabo-musulman aux XIIe-XIIIe siècles. Ces relations laissent leurs traces dans l'art gothique croisé, les monnaies et les inscriptions, mais aussi le français d'Outremer, les manuscrits des scriptoria du Levant, la prose romanesque et les guides de Terre sainte, ou encore la construction de l'ethnotype du Poulain. -- quatrième de couverture

When ISIS reared its ugly head in the last decade, God had already prepared a "vaccine" against the contagion of extremism that created it: the re-discovery of the Covenants of the Prophet Muhammad with the Peoples of the Book, which firmly place the actions of groups like ISIS under the curse of God and His Prophet. This was largely due to the exhaustive scholarship of Dr John Andrew Morrow, leading to the publication in 2013 of The Covenants of the Prophet Muhammad with the Christians of the World. Not only was this a scholarly triumph, but it also inaugurated an international, interfaith movement throughout the Muslim world known as the Covenants Initiative, which culminated in the acquittal of the Christian woman Asia Bibi on charges of blasphemy by the Pakistani Supreme Court in 2018. The book was quoted by the justices in their decision. This volume of speeches, articles and interviews is a chronicle of the first, activist phase of the Covenants Initiative, proving that socially committed scholarship is alive and well in the twenty-first century.

Within Asia, the period from 1840s to 1960s had witnessed the rise and decline of Pax Britannica, the growth of multiple and often competing anti-colonial movements, and the entrenchment of the nation-state system. This book seeks to demonstrate the complex interactions between China, India, and their neighbouring societies against this background of imperialism and nationalist resistance. The contributors to this volume, from India, the West, and the Chinese-speaking world, cover a tremendous breadth of figures, including novelists, soldiers, intelligence officers, archivists, among others, by deploying published and archival materials in multiple Asian and Western languages.

Le pasteur et poète latin Friedrich Dedekind (1525-1598) composa le Grobianus, un manuel de mauvaises manières pour anticonformistes, à l’origine du grobianisme dont Karl Marx dira: « Plat. Boursouflé. Fanfaronnant. Thrasonique. Prétentieusement vulgaire dans l’attaque. Hystériquement sensible à la grossièreté des autres. Brandissant très-haut son épée en un monstrueux gaspillage d’énergie pour la laisser retomber dans le vide. Prêchant sans cesse la moralité et sans cesse l’offensant. Entrelaçant dans une même maille absurde le déclamatoire et le banal. Tout à son affaire, mais sans rien en faire. (…) Contaminé sans même s’en rendre compte par les disputes les plus abstruses du seizième siècle et par son engouement fiévreux pour le corps. Fasciné par des notions dogmatiques et étriquées, en même temps qu’il en appelle à une action mesquine contre toute forme de pensée. Fulminant contre la réaction, réagissant contre le progrès. Incapable de faire rire de l’adversaire, risible quand il le morigène sur tous les tons. Salomon et Marcolphe, Don Quichotte et Sancho Pança, exalté et philistin pour le même prix. Forme rustre de la révolte, forme d’une rustrerie révoltée. Et flottant par-dessus le tout, la bonne conscience sincère du brave bourgeois content de lui-même, en guise d’ambiance: c’était cela, le grobianisme. » (Deutsche-Brüsseler-Zeitung, 28 octobre 1847).
