Ce mémoire de maîtrise a pour but de resituer dans son contexte national un épisode mineur de la seconde guerre de religion: le siège de la ville de Chartres par les forces protestantes en 1568. Depuis cette époque, le discours commémoratif des élites locales a hissé cet événement au niveau du fait héroïque et surtout du miracle; le présent exposé tentera plutôt de tracer, à l'aide des sources datant de l'époque même de la seconde guerre de religion, le portrait de l'ensemble des protagonistes et des rapports de force qui existent entre eux, dans la perspective des relations globales entre l'autorité monarchique et une ville jalouse de son autonomie. Malgré les apparences, l'attitude indolente du pouvoir royal face à Chartres favorise les initiatives locales qui se traduisent ainsi, dans la défense de la ville, par une autonomie imposant clairement des limites à l'action royale. / Québec Université Laval, Bibliothèque 2013

Thesis advisor: Katherine Nahum / This thesis is a comparison between medieval Christian and Islamic sacred architecture, using the Great Mosque of Cordoba and the Cathedral of Notre-Dame in Chartres as examples. The paper links a formal analysis and comparison of the buildings, including their use of space, light, and decoration to an analysis and comparison of each religion's philosophy and theology. It includes a discussion of the role of Neo-Platonist philosophy on the architecture of each religion. / Thesis (BA) — Boston College, 2007. / Submitted to: Boston College.

L'écriture latine est l'un des principaux outils permettant d’étudier la période gallo-romaine. Les contacts entre Romains et indigènes ont favorisé sa diffusion à l'ensemble de la Gaule. Bien que peu de traces nous soient parvenues, l'écriture est un précieux témoignage du passé et l'objectif de cette thèse est d'en étudier l'usage quotidien dans les capitales de cité de Gaule Lyonnaise à travers l'exemple des cités d'Autun, Chartres et Sens. Pour cela, notre étude s'appuie sur l'analyse desinscriptions gravées (graffites) sur vaisselle céramique. La vaisselle en céramique constitue un objet du quotidien accessible à toute la population gallo-romaine et un support épigraphique non périssable. Ainsi, les graffites sur céramique font partie des rares témoignages à notre disposition pour comprendre le quotidien épigraphique des gallo-romains. La première partie de ce travail a consisté à recenser l'ensemble des graffites sur céramique découverts à Autun, Chartres et Sens. Les missions organisées avec l'aide des différentes équipes de bénévoles et le soutien financier du Centre archéologique européen (Bibracte), celui du Ministère de la Culture et celui de l'Université Paris-Sorbonne (Paris IV) nous ont permis de recenser un total de 676 graffites dont la plupart sont inédits. Tous sont répertoriés, illustrés et commentés dans le catalogue de cette thèse. L'étude du corpus intègre les inscriptions, leur analyse linguistique etpaléographique ainsi que leur support et leur contexte de découverte. Les messages transmis par ces inscriptions sont divers (indications de contenu, mesures, voeux, dédicaces, etc.) mais la plupart consistent en des marques d'appartenance incisées sur de la vaisselle de qualité. L'étude révèle des pratiques épigraphiques similaires dans les trois cités et la confrontation des résultats avec les données issues des études précédentes montre que ces codes épigraphiques dépassent largement les frontières de la Gaule Lyonnaise. / Latin writing is one of the main types of evidence for studying the Gallo-Roman period. Contacts between Romans and natives have favoured its spread throughout Gaul. Although few traces have remained, writing is a valuable testimony of the past and the objective of this thesis is to study its everyday use in the capital cities of Gallia Lugdunensis through the examples of Autun, Chartres and Sens (France). Therefore, this study is based on the analysis of the incised inscriptions (graffiti) on pottery tableware which was an everyday object accessible to the entire Gallo-Roman population and made of a non-perishable material. Thus, graffiti on pottery are among the rare examples at our disposal to understand the daily epigraphic habits of the Gallo-Roman population. The first part of this work was to identify all graffiti on pottery discovered in Autun, Chartres and Sens. The missions, which were possible thanks to the help of volunteers and to the financial support of the European Archaeological Centre (Bibracte), the Ministry of Culture and Paris-Sorbonne University, allowed us to identify a total of 676 graffiti, most of them are unpublished. All are listed, illustrated and discussed in the catalogue of this thesis. The study of the corpus includes the inscriptions, their linguistic and palaeographic analysis, the identification and the dating of their support and context of discovery. The messages transmitted by these inscriptions were different contents, wishes, dedications, etc.), but most consisted of ownership marks incised on quality crockery. The study reveals similar epigraphic practices in the three cities and the comparison with the results of previously published studies shows that these epigraphic codes are used far beyond the borders of Gallia Lugdunensis.

Nessa dissertação abordamos certo poema de Paganus Bolotinus, cônego de Chartres na primeira metade do século XII. Sob a pena do clérigo são traçados diversos ataques a supostos eremitas que perambulam pela região espalhando as doutrinas das novas religiões e por isso são tidos como falsos. O estudo desses versos redigidos contra os falsos eremitas que vão à cidade em busca do exercício da palavra, permitiu-nos ir muito além das muralhas chartrenses. A análise da estruturação do discurso poético nos permitiu, primeiramente, dar sentido ao documento e apurar a identificação daqueles a quem se direcionam as palavras do cônego. Uma vez compreendidas as figuras em jogo na narrativa pudemos fazer considerações a respeito do eremitismo medieval, demonstrando a necessidade de pensá-lo no plural a fim de sempre deixar aberta a possibilidade de que práticas e representações não ortodoxas tenham existido entre aqueles que se sentiram atraídos por algum dos muitos aspectos desse tipo de vida religiosa. Finalmente, pudemos tecer alguns comentários de caráter teórico acerca do trabalho do historiador posto a refletir sobre níveis e dinâmicas culturais, tendo sempre em mente suas relações com a sociedade estudada e a forma literária impressa no relato textual objeto da pesquisa / This work deals with a poem of Paganus Bolotinus canon of Chartres in the first half of the 12th century. Under the clergy\'s writing a lot of attacks are done on alleged hermits who wander around that region spreading the doctrines of the new religions. Due to this fact they are considered false hermits. The study of these verses written against the false hermits, who go to the city in order to preach, allowed us to go further the walls of Chartres. In the first place, the analysis of the structure of the poetic discourse made possible to give sense to the document and to verify the recognition of those to whom the canon\'s words were addressed. Then, once the characters in the narrative were understood, we established some grounds about the medieval eremitism, showing the necessity to think it as a plural phenomenon, in order to consider if any non-orthodox practices and representations existed among those attracted by the different aspects of this type of religious life. Finally, we made some comments about the theoretical aspect that involves the work of the historian who reflects on cultural levels and its dynamics, always having in mind the relations with the studied society and the written form imprinted in the textual report that is his object of research

Au début du XVe siècle, les forêts domaniales devinrent un enjeu majeur dans les affaires du royaume de France. Gérées par l’administration des Eaux et Forêts, elles furent sur ordre du roi l’objet d’une surveillance particulière. L’étude du Coutumier d’Hector de Chartres, un registre du XVe siècle consignant les droits d’usage de centaines d’usagers des forêts du domaine normand de Charles VI, révèle la place que ces dernières occupaient dans la société en France dans les derniers siècles du Moyen Âge. D’une part, le Coutumier démontre qu’elles étaient non seulement importantes dans l’économie de la province mais qu’elles jouaient aussi un rôle essentiel dans la vie autant à la campagne que dans les villes. D’autre part, avec l’analyse des ordonnances forestières du XIVe siècle et du début du XVe siècle, il illustre comment elles furent d’une importance capitale pour le roi puisque ce dernier y prenait le bois nécessaire à la construction de sa marine et à l’entretien de ses forteresses normandes et qu’il en tirait d’importants revenus dans un contexte d’hostilités avec l’Angleterre. Ainsi, une relation de réciprocité bénéfique pour le roi et les usagers s’installa à travers un complexe système d’usages et de redevances. En cherchant à protéger ces bénéfices, les rois de France tentèrent de gérer adéquatement leurs forêts, établissant ainsi les jalons d’une foresterie durable tournée vers la préservation des ressources sylvicoles et se posant en gardiens du bien commun. / At the beginning of the XVth century, domanial forests became a major issue in the affairs of the kingdom of France. Managed by the Waters and Forests administration, they were put under close surveillance by the king’s decree. The study of Hector de Chartres’ customary, a XVth century register containing the customs of hundreds of users of Charles VI’s norman domain’s forests, reveals the place that they held in France at the end of the Middle Ages. It shows first that they were not only important in the province’s economic life but that they also played a major role in its urban and rural life. It also shows, with the analysis of a XIVth and XVth century corpus of royal ordonnances, how they were important for the king, who took there the ressources he needed to build a navy and maintain his fortresses in Normandy and who benefited from the users’ royalties. Thus, a complex relation which greatly benefited the two parties was created through a complex system of customs and royalties. By trying to protect these benefits, the kings of France tried to manage adequately their forests, establishing the bases of sustainable forestry oriented towards the conservation of forest ressources and acting as gardians of the kingdom’s common good.
