Abstract

The Bayeux Tapestry is a late eleventh-century embroidery, 68.5 metres/224 feet long, visualizing events leading up to the Battle of Hastings in 1066 and the subsequent Norman Conquest of England. In the past 300 years, since its rediscovery in Bayeux Cathedral, it has provided fertile ground for the musings, opinions, and investigations of antiquarians, scholars, novelists, journalists, and other interested parties. This volume reconstructs the often turbulent history of this remarkable work of art, and offers a critical analysis and annotated bibliography of the more than 1000 publications which have attempted to answer the many questions it has provoked. Discussions have focused on the origin of the Tapestry – workshop location, patronage, artistic sources, dating, and purpose. The narrative has been interpreted as Norman propaganda by some, as English propaganda by others. Its legitimacy as an historical document has been evaluated, often with contradictory conclusions, and attention has been drawn to its value as a reflection of contemporary life and customs. The Latin inscriptions have been analysed and shown to exhibit both English and French characteristics. Links have been proposed with English and French epic poetry, while recent scholarship has brought literary and communication theories into discussions. Its numerous reproductions, facsimiles, and “spinoffs” attest efforts to make it known to a greater audience, while emphasizing its relevance for modern viewers. It has become the world's most famous textile.

Abstract

Apparue progressivement dans les milieux de l'écrit depuis le XIe siècle, la signature est adoptée par les souverains et les princes de l'Europe occidentale à partir du XIVe siècle. À la fois signe de validation et emblème royal, elle livre de précieuses informations sur l'exercice du pouvoir au Moyen Âge. À l'origine exclusivement autographe, la signature royale est alors une véritable épiphanie du pouvoir sur le papier ou le parchemin. Dans le contexte troublé de la guerre de Cent Ans, elle participe du conflit entre les rois de France et d'Angleterre en s'invitant dans leur arsenal symbolique. Au XVe siècle, les milieux du pouvoir l'érigent en signe de validation à part entière, qui se démultiplie sur les documents; elle perd son caractère autographe et se voit reproduite autant que de besoin par des secrétaires de confiance. L'évolution de son usage renseigne ainsi sur la représentation du roi et de la royauté, et le rôle de l'écrit dans la pratique du pouvoir.À partir d'un corpus large et inédit, croisant les ressources des grandes institutions patrimoniales et des dépouillements en région, cet ouvrage aborde pour la première fois la signature médiévale sous l'angle de l'histoire, de la diplomatique et de la symbolique.
