But how was this decisive shift in power relations experienced in people's minds?<\/strong><br \/><strong>We are struck by the abundance and diversity of evidence of political awareness. The ruling dogma of the king as \u00abemperor in his kingdom\u00bb has not meant that successive monarchs have been able to exercise their empire over a mute society. The opposite was true. There has never been a shortage of interpreters to support, escort, criticise or combat those in power. Through all sorts of means, treatises, speeches, sermons, grievances, and a host of theoretical and occasional writings, rulers and ruled have maintained a constant dialogue, the guarantee of an intellectual and moral consensus that is sufficiently solid to ensure, willy-nilly, the necessary cohesion of the country.<\/strong><br \/><strong>State institutions took root in the political ideas and beliefs of the time, and the crown appeared to all as an unavailable entity, the guardian of the community's destiny. The French, who were already proclaiming their freedom, became accustomed to living under a kingship that was quick to display its \u00abvery Christian\u00bb and imperial stature.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div>Source: Extract from \u00c9ditions Gallimard<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure style=\"font-size:18px\" class=\"wp-block-table has-albert-sans-font-family\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>\n<div>Publisher<\/div>\n<\/td><td>Published by Gallimard<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\n<div>Year of publication<\/div>\n<\/td><td>1993<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\n<div>Number of pages<\/div>\n<\/td><td>576<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\n<div>ISBN<\/div>\n<\/td><td>2070731170<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\n<div>Website<\/div>\n<\/td><td><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gallimard.fr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.gallimard.fr\/<\/a><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>[mp3j track=\u00a0\u00bb1994-Discours-Seydoux.mp3&Prime; title=\u00a0\u00bb\u00c9couter le discours de Nicolas Seydoux, Pr\u00e9sident de la SCI du Val-Richer.\u00a0\u00bb flip=\u00a0\u00bby\u00a0\u00bb flow=\u00a0\u00bbn\u00a0\u00bb bold=\u00a0\u00bbn\u00a0\u00bb]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br \/>[mp3j track=\u00a0\u00bb1994-Discours-Anne-Dornano.mp3&Prime; title=\u00a0\u00bb\u00c9couter le discours d&rsquo;Anne D&rsquo;Ornano, Pr\u00e9sident du Conseil g\u00e9n\u00e9ral du Calvados.\u00a0\u00bb flip=\u00a0\u00bby\u00a0\u00bb flow=\u00a0\u00bbn\u00a0\u00bb bold=\u00a0\u00bbn\u00a0\u00bb]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br \/>[mp3j track=\u00a0\u00bb1994-Discours-Furet.mp3&Prime; title=\u00a0\u00bb\u00c9couter le discours de Fran\u00e7ois Furet, Pr\u00e9sident du jury du Prix Guizot.\u00a0\u00bb flip=\u00a0\u00bby\u00a0\u00bb flow=\u00a0\u00bbn\u00a0\u00bb bold=\u00a0\u00bbn\u00a0\u00bb]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br \/>[mp3j track=\u00a0\u00bb1994-Discours-Krynen.mp3&Prime; title=\u00a0\u00bb\u00c9couter le discours de Jacques Krynen, laur\u00e9at du Prix Guizot 1994.\u00a0\u00bb flip=\u00a0\u00bby\u00a0\u00bb flow=\u00a0\u00bbn\u00a0\u00bb bold=\u00a0\u00bbn\u00a0\u00bb]<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Le premier Prix Guizot du Conseil g\u00e9n\u00e9ral du Calvados du Conseil g\u00e9n\u00e9ral a \u00e9t\u00e9 attribu\u00e9 \u00e0\u00a0Jacques Krynen\u00a0pour son ouvrage : L&#8217;empire du roi.
