Parution.
Sophie Reculin, L'invention de l'éclairage public en France. De la nuit illuminée à la nuit éclairée (1697-1789).
L'histoire de l'éclairage public qui explore de nombreux aspects de la société du 18e siècle, revenant sur les inventions techniques, l'implantation progressive de la lumière dans les villes ou encore l'appropriation de cet éclairage par les citadins.
J'ai eu la chance d'écouter l'autrice en conférence & je peux assurer que c'est un sujet passionnant et très bien raconté (même je n'ai pas encore lu son livre !).
@Ullilust Klingt sehr nach einem #musthave nicht nur für Fans der #Archäologie!
The name Geronimo came up in an episode of 1923 while I was on the treadmill today.
Now I have to go down a historical rabbit hole and learn more about the Apache Wars.
Je suis, encore, plongée dans l'entrée de Henri II à Rouen en 1550. Le roi, installé sur 1 sorte d'estrade, regarde passer gens en armes & chars de triomphe. Six éléphants défilent, avec diverses choses sur le dos. Les relations de l'entrée ne sont pas très claires & pas toujours concordantes sur ce que sont ces chargements. Ainsi les délibérations communales parlent de "chasteaulx", de "lumieres", & enfin de "despouilles d'armes" (?), ce dont les livrets (imprimés & manuscrit) ne parlent pas...à moins que je fasse 1 erreur de transcription, ce qui est fort possible* !

Milosz writes about Poland during and after WW2.
Going from sovereign country to Nazi invasion to Russian Communism takeover, and the mindf**k it had on citizens.
Every American should read it. All sounds familiar.
Using my highlighter a lot.

**Company-State at Home: The East India Company and the Fiscal System in Eighteenth-Century Britain**
“_This article shows that fiscal capacity was not created only by government bureaucracies: the ‘company-state at home’ model presented here complements the narrative of the ‘fiscal-military state’ by showing that much fiscal revenue from trade was realized through the action of the English East India Company (EIC). Lacking the capacity to enact exhaustive laws, carry out complex calculations, or effectively manage a large bureaucracy, the English state relied on the administrative capacity of the EIC to collect customs on the East Indies trade._”

**Extreme drought contributed to barbarian invasion of late Roman Britain, tree-ring study reveals**
“_Researchers argue that Picts, Scotti and Saxons took advantage of famine and societal breakdown caused by an extreme period of drought to inflict crushing blows on weakened Roman defences in 367 CE. While Rome eventually restored order, some historians argue that the province never fully recovered._”
