In the 1930's, Monroe, Louisiana, was a town of twenty-six thousand in the northeastern corner of the state, an area described by the New Orleans Item as the "lynch law center of Louisiana." race relations were bad, and the Depression was pitiless for most, especially for the working class-a great many of whom had no work at all or seasonal work at best. Yet for a few years in the early 1930's, this unlikely spot was home to the Monarchs, a national-caliber Negro League baseball team. Crowds of black and white fans eagerly filled their segregated grandstand seats to see

La réflexion sur la fonction royale proposée ici fait ressortir une problématique des plus actuelles à l'heure où en Europe, et dans le monde, de nombreux pays connaissent encore la monarchie sous l'une ou l'autre forme: Grande-Bretagne, Espagne, Belgique, Luxembourg, Pays-Bas, Suède, Norvège, Danemark, etc. Se questionner sur la fonction royale, c'est interroger nos racines mais également se poser des questions sur l'avenir de nos sociétés dans lesquelles rien n'assure que cette fonction ne jouera plus de rôle important. En effet, aujourd'hui, qui soutiendrait que le régime politique idéal est figé sous la forme que nous connaissons actuellement alors qu'il est lui-même le fruit d'une évolution continue tout au long de l'histoire. Cet ouvrage propose un voyage au cœur de la fonction royale sous différentes formes selon les époques et les pays et comprend de nombreuses illustrations.

The role of kings, the source of their authority and the nature of the practical restraints on their power have exercised political and religious philosophers, historians, competing candidates for rule and subject populations from the time of the earliest documented human societies. How the kingly image is created and presented and how the ruler performs his or her function as the source of justice are among the topics addressed in this volume, which also covers the role of queens in maintaining dynastic succession yet being the target of tales of adultery. This volume is of particular interest in bringing together studies of kingly power from Cyrus the Great and Alexander in the ancient world to Shah Abbas in the seventeenth century, and covering the European Middle Ages as well as Iran and the Muslim world.
