商品简介
An innovative history of deep social and economic changes in France, told through the story of a single extended family across five generations Marie Aymard was an illiterate widow who lived in the provincial town of Angoulême in southwestern France, a place where seemingly nothing ever happened. Yet, in 1764, she made her fleeting mark on the historical record through two documents: a power of attorney in connection with the property of her late husband, a carpenter on the island of Grenada, and a prenuptial contract for her daughter, signed by eighty-three people in Angoulême. Who was Marie Aymard? Who were all these people? And why were they together on a dark afternoon in December 1764? Beginning with these questions, An Infinite History offers a panoramic look at an extended family over five generations. Through ninety-eight connected stories about inquisitive, sociable individuals, ending with Marie Aymard’s great-great granddaughter in 1906, Emma Rothschild unfurls an innovative modern history of social and family networks, emigration, immobility, the French Revolution, and the transformation of nineteenth-century economic life. Rothschild spins a vast narrative resembling a period novel, one that looks at a large, obscure family, of whom almost no private letters survive, whose members traveled to Syria, Mexico, and Tahiti, and whose destinies were profoundly unequal, from a seamstress living in poverty in Paris to her third cousin, the cardinal of Algiers. Rothschild not only draws on discoveries in local archives but also uses new technologies, including the visualization of social networks, large-scale searches, and groundbreaking methods of genealogical research. An Infinite History demonstrates how the ordinary lives of one family over three centuries can constitute a remarkable record of deep social and economic changes. 通过一个跨越五代人的大家庭的故事，讲述了法国深刻的社会和经济变革的创新历史。玛丽·艾马尔是一位文盲寡妇，住在法国西南部的省城昂古莱姆，那里似乎什么也没发生过。然而，1764 年，她通过两份文件在历史记录中留下了短暂的印记：一份与她已故丈夫（格林纳达岛木匠）的财产有关的授权书，以及一份为她女儿签署的婚前合同。昂古莱姆有八十三人。玛丽·艾玛德是谁？这些人是谁？ 1764 年 12 月一个漆黑的下午，他们为何聚集在一起？从这些问题开始，《无限的历史》对一个五代人的大家庭进行了全景式的审视。通过关于好奇、善于交际的个人的九十八个相互关联的故事，以 1906 年玛丽·艾玛德的玄孙女结束，艾玛·罗斯柴尔德展现了一部关于社会和家庭网络、移民、流动性、法国大革命和十九世纪转型的创新现代史。世纪经济生活。罗斯柴尔德编织了一部类似时代小说的宏大叙事，讲述了一个默默无闻的大家庭，这个家庭几乎没有私人信件留存，其成员前往叙利亚、墨西哥和塔希提岛，其命运极其不平等，来自一个生活在美国的女裁缝。她在巴黎的贫困中嫁给了她的三表弟、阿尔及尔的红衣主教。罗斯柴尔德不仅利用当地档案馆的发现，还使用新技术，包括社交网络的可视化、大规模搜索和谱系研究的开创性方法。 《无限的历史》展示了一个家庭三个世纪以来的平凡生活如何构成深刻的社会和经济变革的非凡记录。
