Fourth series ; $v 95 520 2 $a "Although it is often assumed that resurgent royal government eliminated so-called private warfare, the French judicial archives reveal nearly one hundred such wars waged in Languedoc and the Auvergne between the mid-thirteenth and the end of the fourteenth century. Royal administrators often intervened in these wars, but not always in order to suppress 'private violence' in favour of 'public justice.' They frequently recognised elites' own power and legitimate prerogatives, and elites were often fully complicit with royal intervention. Much of the engagement between royal officers and local elites came through informal processes of negotiation and settlement, rather than through the imposition of official justice. The expansion of royal authority was due as much to local cooperation as to conflict, a fact that ensured its survival during the fourteenth-century's crises. This book thus provides a new narrative of the rise of the French state and a fresh perspective on aristocratic violence"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 196-215) and index. 505 0 $a Introduction: History, historians, and Seigneurial War -- War and peace in post-Albigensian Languedoc, 1250-70 -- Philip the Fair's mission from God, 1270-1314 -- The last Capetians and the Hundred Years War, 1315-1350 -- The changing experience of violence, 1350-64 -- Violence and the state, 1365-1400 -- Conclusion -- Appendices. 651 0 $a Languedoc (France) $x History, Military. 651 0 $a Languedoc (France) $x History. 651 0 $a Languedoc (France) $x Social conditions. 651 0 $a Languedoc (France) $x Politics and government. 650 0 $a Aristocracy (Social class) $z Languedoc $z Languedoc $x History $y To 1500. 650 0 $a Elite (Social sciences) $z Languedoc $z Languedoc $x History $y To 1500. 650 0 $a Violence $z Languedoc $z Languedoc $x History $y To 1500. 650 0 $a Social conflict $z Languedoc $z Languedoc $x History $y To 1500. 650 0 $a State, The $x History $y To 1500. 651 0 $a France $x Politics and government $y 987-1328. 651 0 $a France $x Politics and government $y 1328-1589. 650 7 $a HISTORY / Europe / General. $2 bisacsh 650 4 $a Aristocracy (Social class) / France / Languedoc / History / To 1500. 650 4 $a Elite (Social sciences) / France / Languedoc / History / To 1500. 650 4 $a HISTORY / Europe / General / bisacsh. 650 4 $a Social conflict / France / Languedoc / History / To 1500. 650 4 $a State, The / History / To 1500. 650 4 $a Violence / France / Languedoc / History / To 1500. 651 4 $a France / Politics and government / 1328-1589. 651 4 $a France / Politics and government / 987-1328. 651 4 $a Languedoc (France) / History, Military. 651 4 $a Languedoc (France) / Politics and government. 651 4 $a Languedoc (France) / Social conditions. 830 0 $a Cambridge studies in medieval life and thought ; $v 4th ser., 95. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217025213.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=ACDC07EA332F11E49E51C4E1DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
