Abstract

[eng] Abstract While the monarchy tried to define revolt and enforce its conception of civil conflict in early seventeenth-century France, the local nobles of southwestern France asserted their own definitions and usages of revolt. These nobles used four principal strategies in their formulations of "revolt" : labeling other nobles as rebels and attempting to distance themselves from revolt, constructing the idea of initiative against disorder to justify their actions, claiming that they were conducting a holy defense of their faith and church, and asserting rationales of non- revolt to negate the idea of revolt and establish a logic for their participation in civil conflict. These strategies formed part of a "culture of revolt" that defined nobles' experiences in early seventeenth-century civil warfare. [fre] Résumé Alors que la monarchie essayait de définir la révolte et d'imposer sa conception du conflit civil en France au début du dix-septième siècle, les nobles locaux du sud-ouest ont affirmé leurs propres définitions et usages de révolte. Ces nobles ont utilisé quatre stratégies principales dans leurs formulations de la « révolte » : étiqueter les autres nobles comme rebelles et tenter de se distancer de l'accusation de révolte, construire l'idée d'initiative contre le désordre pour justifier leurs actions, revendiquer leur engagement dans une défense sacrée de leur foi et l'Église, et protester les raisonnements de non-révolte pour nier l'idée de révolte et établir une logique pour leur participation au conflit civil. Ces stratégies formaient une partie de la « culture de la révolte », qui a défini l'expérience nobiliaire de la guerre civile au début du XVIIe siècle.
