The Parlement of Paris was the largest secular court in Christendom. Although its criminal archives have been preserved virtually intact, historians of the period of the great witch trials, as well as scholars of the Ancien Régime in general, have been discouraged by the notorious difficulties of research into them, and have effectively avoided these records. Alfred Soman was the first historian to have undertaken the task. In the fifteen articles republished here, which include both detailed investigations of particular cases and broad-ranging overviews, he contends that criminal justice in the 16th- and 17th-century France was far more humane and less severe than traditional assumptions would suggest. As early as 1588, the High Court began to take steps to restrain indiscriminate witch hunting, particularly in the eastern provinces where prosecutions were instigated not in conformity with, but in defiance of, the highest judicial authority in the land. Le Parlement de Paris, la plus grande cour de justice de l’Occident, nous a légué ses archives criminelles quasiment intactes. Pourtant les historiens des procès de sorcellerie, ainsi que les spécialistes des aspects institutionnels et sociaux de l’Ancien Régime, découragés par les difficultés notoires de la recherche, ont évité l’exploitation de ces documents. Alfred Soman est le premier chercheur à en avoir relevé de défi. Dans cette série de quinze articles, qui comprennent des enquêtes détaillés, ainsi que des essais de synthèse, il soutient que l’ancienne justice a été beaucoup plus clémente et moins ’injuste’ que de vieilles idées reçues ne le prétendent. Dès 1588, la Haute Cour commença à réprimer les nombreuses poursuites pour faits de sorcellerie, plus particulièrement dans l’Est du royaume, où certains sièges subalternes entamaient des actions criminelles intempestatives, prenant le contre-pied de la politique mise en place par le Pouvoir judiciaire central.

Cet ouvrage, fruit d'un colloque, est unique en son genre. Des livres et des articles ont bien été publiés sur les procès intentés aujourd'hui en Afrique contre ceux qui pratiquent la sorcellerie maléfique mais aucun colloque international - c'est-à-dire une rencontre officielle et publique - n'avait encore été tenu sur le sujet. Et qui plus est au Cameroun, où ces questions ne sont traitées qu'à mots feutrés. Et dans le contexte chrétien de l'Université catholique d'Afrique centrale (UCAC). Pour que cet événement puisse avoir lieu, il fallait que la question soit à la fois brûlante - des procès par dizaines -, partagée par l'ensemble de la société et sans réponse satisfaisante. Sur quelles preuves, en effet, les magistrats pouvaient-ils se baser pour juger, à partir de la Loi moderne, de la culpabilité ou de l'innocence d'une personne accusée de pratiquer la sorcellerie, un phénomène essentiellement occulte ? Ce qu'on appelle couramment Sorcellerie fait partie, en réalité, d'un système vieux comme le monde qui comporte un versant maléfique et un versant bénéfique ou contre-sorcellerie : une stratégie que se sont donnée les hommes pour gérer avec réalisme la menace permanente du pouvoir de nuire présent en eux. La persistance des phénomènes maléfiques de sorcellerie, et même leur augmentation dans la société moderne, montrent la relative incapacité des institutions concernées - en particulier de la Justice - à proposer aux populations le moyen de régler leurs conflits par des moyens légaux. Un grand afflux d'auditeurs a fait de ces trois jours de rencontre une tribune où les conférenciers, magistrats ou universitaires pour la plupart, ont dû faire face à de vives réactions, ce qui a donné à l'ensemble un caractère imprévisible, chose rare dans un colloque international.

Mona Chollet's In Defense of Witches is a “brilliant, well-documented” celebration (Le Monde) by an acclaimed French feminist of the witch as a symbol of female rebellion and independence in the face of misogyny and persecution. Centuries after the infamous witch hunts that swept through Europe and America, witches continue to hold a unique fascination for many: as fairy tale villains, practitioners of pagan religion, as well as feminist icons. Witches are both the ultimate victim and the stubborn, elusive rebel. But who were the women who were accused and often killed for witchcraft? What types of women have centuries of terror censored, eliminated, and repressed? Celebrated feminist writer Mona Chollet explores three types of women who were accused of witchcraft and persecuted: the independent woman, since widows and celibates were particularly targeted; the childless woman, since the time of the hunts marked the end of tolerance for those who claimed to control their fertility; and the elderly woman, who has always been an object of at best, pity, and at worst, horror. Examining modern society, Chollet concludes that these women continue to be harrassed and oppressed. Rather than being a brief moment in history, the persecution of witches is an example of society’s seemingly eternal misogyny, while women today are direct descendants to those who were hunted down and killed for their thoughts and actions. With fiery prose and arguments that range from the scholarly to the cultural, In Defense of Witches seeks to unite the mythic image of the witch with modern women who live their lives on their own terms.

Through a close reading of seven literary memoirs of the Nazi Occupation of France, Refiguring Les Années Noires: Literary Representations of the Nazi Occupation shows how the memory of the period has been shaped by political and social factors. An interdisciplinary study incorporating trauma theory, history, and folklore studies, this book examines representations of the Occupation by a diverse group of writers ranging from a female Resistance fighter to one of the first French Roma novelists. The methodological diversity of the volume brings to the fore each author’s unique perspective and demonstrates that their works are at once historically and artistically significant. Above all, this book gives voice to groups whose experiences in occupied France have largely been forgotten.
