In this new translation by David Crouch Martin Aurell revives the passion and politics, revolts and reversals of the Plantagenet Empire.Aurell's superb knowledge of the complex sources for the period uncovers a world of sophisticated decision making and modern political manoeuvring: a world where political spin and propaganda were deliberately employed by Plantagenet Kings in ideological warfare against their rivals. This book focuses on how an Empire racked with conflict survived for seventy years: it is a study of power at its source. Ideal for students studying the Angevin Empire as part of a medieval history course.

Le mariage d'Henri II d'Angleterre avec Aliénor d'Aquitaine en 1152 marque la naissance de l'empire Plantagenêt qui s'étend de l'Ecosse aux Pyrénées, de l'Irlande au Limousin. Mais cet assemblage de comtés, marches et autres duchés sera sans cesse en rébellion, d'autant que, par serment, le Plantagenêt est à jamais le vassal du roi de France. La famille elle-même offre le spectacle d'une tragédie de la haine : les fils - Richard Cœur de Lion ou Jean sans Terre - sont prêts à tuer le père pour sauver leur mère Aliénor répudiée. Ce combat des Atrides inspirera à Shakespeare ses plus belles pages. L'impopularité du meurtre de l'archevêque Thomas Becket, assassiné à Canterbury, jette définitivement l'opprobre sur la famille. En 1224, la veuve de Jean sans Terre livre à Philippe Auguste le Poitou, sonnant le retrait de l'Anglais sur le sol continental : le dernier Plantagenêt, Henri III, y conserve la Gascogne, autant dire une peau de chagrin. Ainsi disparaît un royaume.

“Phenomenal . . . A must read for us who desire to topple the dictatorship of relativism and culture of death and replace it with the only alternative” (The Imaginative Conservative). Especially concerned with the public nature of religion, historian Glenn W. Olsen—author of Christian Marriage: A Historical Study and On the Road to Emmaus: The Catholic Dialogue with American and Modernity—sets forth an exhaustively researched and persuasive account of how religion has been reshaped in the modern period. The Turn to Transcendence traces both the loss of transcendence and attempts to recover it while making its own proposals. Neither reactionary nor modernist, it questions how—under conditions of modern life—some form of the sacred and some form of the secular might both flourish at the same time. But it also provides a warning that a religion unable to maintain itself with its own overt architecture, language, and calendars against an enveloping secular culture is destined for oblivion. “Glenn Olsen’s book could hardly be more pivotal or insightful. Confronting the growing amnesia regarding culture’s religious origin and transcendent purpose, Olsen proves both a masterful cartographer of modernity and a visionary of a culture that encourages and enables us to seek beyond ourselves.” —Carl A. Anderson, Supreme Knight of the Knights of Columbus “A brilliant book. It rests on an amazing amount of scholarship that is wide-ranging in history, literature, art, science, music, theology, and philosophy.” —James Hitchcock, professor of history, St. Louis University

Through contextual analysis and by reassessing the chronicle evidence, 'King John: An Underrated King' presents a compelling reevaluation of the reign of King John, England's most maligned sovereign.

Each chapter features both narrative and contextual analysis, and is prefaced by a timeline outlining the key events of the period. The volume also contains an array of maps and diagrams, as well as a collection of useful study questions.
