This article considers examples of accelerated historical scholarship as well as calls for a “slow history.” Through an analysis of the author's own experiences with the digital humanities, it examines the advantages and disadvantages of digital technologies in the field of history. It c…
Le pouvoir marchand: Corps et corporatisme à Paris sous l’Ancien Régime
Mathieu Marraud, author of several works on old regime Parisian elites, has written an expansive political, institutional and intellectual history of the Six Corps of wholesale merchants focusing on their position within the city’s guild structure and their relations with the state. He argues that previous studies of the corps et communautés of Paris have slighted the former in favour of the latter. The merchants’ unusual interest in honour and t…
Apprenticeship and Learning by Doing: The Role of Privileged Enclaves in Early Modern French Cities
In France, formal guild training was not as ubiquitous a means of socializing young people into a trade as it has been portrayed by scholars. Guilds were limited geographically, and in many French cities privileged enclaves controlled by clerical or noble seigneurs curbed the sway of corporate structures, or even created their own. Eighteenth-century Bordeaux provides an extreme example of how limited guild training was in France’s fastest-growin…

Economic Development in Early Modern France: The Privilege of Liberty, 1650–1820

In this fascinating new study however, Jeff Horn reveals that Bourbon officials utilized privilege as an instrument of economic development, freeing some sectors of the economy from pre-existing privileges and regulations, while protecting others.
