‎Oxford University Press 2012 328 pages 14 2x3 2x21 8cm. 2012. Cartonné jaquette. 328 pages. Cet essai historique de John Gittings ancien journaliste du Guardian déconstruit le mythe selon lequel la paix serait ennuyeuse et la guerre inévitable. Il retrace l'évolution des discours et mouvements en faveur de la paix de l'Antiquité (dès l'Iliade) à l'époque contemporaine (jusqu'à la guerre en Irak) en mettant en lumière les arguments pour la paix avancés par diverses pensées et figures comme Tolstoï et Gandhi‎

‎The articles in this volume cover a broad range of disciplines, times, and geographical areas and explore strategies that were used in the Middle Ages and Renaissance to resolve conflict and attain peace, a concept at times constructed as a rich and complex, positive and dynamic ideal. Peace was far from a pale, static concept - a simple lack of violence - in the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Rather, it was at times constructed as a rich and complex, positive and dynamic ideal. The thirteen articles in this volume cover a broad range of disciplines, times, and geographical areas and explore strategies that were used in the past to resolve conflict and attain peace. They examine events, texts, and images that date from the fifth through the sixteenth centuries, and their authors focus not only on Western Europe, but also on Scandinavia, the Caucusus, and Egypt. This volume rests on the assumption that peace covers a spectrum of situations that connects the personal and the political. Therefore, the papers presented here examine not only how nations negotiated peace, but also how individuals did. Similarly, although several essays spotlight those in the seat of power, others explore those who are politically marginalized. our views about peace and conflict, as this collection makes clear, are shaped in part by the mentalites of the past. Although some peacemaking strategies may be unacceptable to us today - forced marriages and conversions, for example - we can learn from other strategies how to transcend or modify various modes of antagonistic thinking.

The medals represent an important and often under-utilized resource for the history of relationships between the Native peoples of North America and the colonial powers of France, Great Britain, and Spain, as well as their successors, Canada and the United States of America. Despite being inanimate objects of silver and copper, the Indian peace medals in the ANS collection are incomparable storytellers, each offering its own tale of the past that give us insight into the remarkable lives of the medals? creators, distributors, and recipients.
