Dordogne, Berry, Limousin (English and French Edition)
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 33.97 $This completely revised Michelin Green Guide featuring Dordogne, Berry and Limousin presents some of the most-visited, and some of the least-visited, areas in France. The Dordogne, and increasingly the Quercy, characterized by castles and caves, are well-known to visitors, while the Berry and Limousin areas with their unspoiled countryside and plateaux are much less familiar but definitely worth a visit. The guide with its star-rating system and maps covers it all from the prehistory of Périgord Noir to northern Berry’s wine-growing region and the crisp white wines of Sancerre.

Knightly Piety and the Lay Reponse to the First Crusade: The Limousin and Gascony, c.970-c.1130.
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 24.00 $This is a study of the religious ideas and motivation of the laymen who fought in the First Crusade (1095-1101). Marcus Bull argues that the laity's crusading zeal cannot be understood simply as a reflection of the preoccupations of educated ecclesiastics. His scholarly and sophisticated analysis shows that elements traditionally regarded as central to the crusade's origins--the Peace of God movement and the Spanish Reconquest--were in fact of minimal significance. Through a study of three regions in southwestern France, Bull uncovers the true dynamic of crusade enthusiasm: the beliefs and practices of pious laymen in intimate contact with local religious communities. He shows that the crusade was an expression of everyday, but genuine, piety.

Martyred Village: Commemorating the 1944 Massacre at Oradour-sur-Glane
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 73.07 $Among German crimes of the Second World War, the Nazi massacre of 642 men, women, and children at Oradour-sur-Glane on June 10, 1944, is one of the most notorious. On that Saturday afternoon, four days after the Allied landings in Normandy, SS troops encircled the town in the rolling farm country of the Limousin. Soldiers marched the men to nearby barns, lined them up, and shot them. They then locked the women and children in the church, shot them, and set the building and the rest of the town on fire. Residents who had been away for the day returned to a blackened scene of horror, carnage, and devastation.In 1946 the French State expropriated and preserved the entire ruins of Oradour. The forty acres of crumbling houses, farms and shops became France's village martyr, set up as a monument to French suffering under the German occupation. Today, the village is a tourist destination, complete with maps and guidebooks.In this first full-scale study of the destruction of Oradour and its remembrance over the half century since the war, Sarah Farmer investigates the prominence of the massacre in French understanding of the national experience under German domination. Through interviews with survivors and village officials, as well as extensive archival research, she pieces together a fascinating history of both a shattering event and its memorial afterlife.Complemented by haunting photographs of the site, Farmer's eloquent dissection of France's national memory addresses the personal and private ways in which, through remembrance, people try to come to terms with enormous loss. Martyred Village will have implications for the study of the history and sociology of memory, testimonies about remembrances of war and the Holocaust, and postmodern concerns with the presentation of the past.
