En 1949 paraissait le Deuxième Sexe de Simone de Beauvoir. À l'occasion du cinquantenaire de sa publication, un colloque international réunissait en 1999 des spécialistes de l'ouvrage pour appeler à la nécessité d'une édition critique du texte. De ce colloque est issu l'ouvrage collectif, dirigé par Ingrid Galster, Le Deuxième Sexe. Le livre fondateur du féminisme moderne en situation (2004, puis 2015). En 2004, lors de l'édition des Rendez-vous de l'histoire sur "Les femmes et l'histoire", une table-ronde rassemblait Françoise d'Eaubonne, Natalie Zemon Davis, Geneviève Fraisse et Françoise Collin, sous la modération d'Ingrid Galster, pour analyser la réception du Deuxième Sexe en France et aux États-Unis, ainsi que son impact sur les courants féministes de part et d'autre de l'Atlantique.Modératrice : Ingrid Galster, professeur de littérature spécialiste de Simone de Beauvoir et Jean-Paul SartreParticipantes : Françoise Collin, philosophe, écrivaine, fondatrice des Cahiers du GrifNathalie Zemon-Davis, historienne Françoise d'Eaubonne, journaliste et écrivaine, cofondatrice du MLFGeneviève Fraisse, philosophe, ancienne déléguée interministérielle aux droits des femmes(00:00) Générique(00:33) Présentation des intervenantes par Ingrid Galster(01:27) Colloque du cinquantenaire du Deuxième sexe : perspectives de recherche révélées(07:01) Scandale suscité par la publication du Deuxième Sexe (20:53) Des défenseurs inattendus du projet beauvoirien(25:08) Validité historique du chapitre « Histoire » de la Deuxième partie du tome I(37:01) La question de la dissymétrie de la liberté sexuelle entre les femmes et les hommes(41:55) Influence de la pensée beauvoirienne aux États-Unis et liens entre le féminisme français et américain (56:46) Le « nous » féminin pour Simone de Beauvoir avant et après le Mouvement de Libération des femmes des années 1970(01:08:29) Questions du public(01:19:48) ConclusionTable-ronde issue de l'édition 2004 des Rendez-vous de l'histoire sur le thème "Les femmes dans l'Histoire". © Françoise, Collin, Nathalie Zemon Davis, Françoise d'Eaubonne, Geneviève Fraisse, Ingrid Galster, 2004. Nous cherchons à entrer en contact avec les ayants droit de Françoise Collin : écrivez-vous à archives@rdv-histoire.com.

Natalie Zemon Davis, Martin Guerre, and Historical Narrative Reimaginings

Intro.(1:30) - Start of interview.(2:12) - Abe's "origin story". He grew up in L.A and moved up to the Bay Area where he attended Berkeley for college and law school. After law school he went to Seattle and worked in-house for US West Communications (now Qwest Corporation). Back in northern California he joined another telecom before joining the founding team at Glass Lewis in 2003 ("the market was ripe for disruption").(5:37) - His time as the Global Head of Corporate Governance at Barclays Global Investors (2005-2009).(7:38) - His time as the Managing Director and Global Head of Corporate Governance and Responsible Investment at BlackRock (2009-2011). "The focus and attention to corporate governance was ramping up at that time and BlackRock was an incredible spot to be in a moment of so much change in the space."(9:39) - On why he decided to start Camberview Partners in 2012. "Most of the people thought I was crazy. It was a big decision to take that leap." "Maybe the hardest decision that I've had to make professionally but probably the best decision in terms of what it has created in the market."(11:45) - He started the firm because he believed that they were at a moment in the evolution of governance where companies would have to care a lot more about the institutions and people voting their shares. Two drivers: Say-on-Pay (after Dodd-Frank) and the rise of Shareholder Activism. Companies were not doing much engagement with voting teams at the big institutional investors. They needed better advice.(19:38) - On the rise of institutional investors and their growing influence in corporate governance.(24:28) - On the rise of stakeholder capitalism and ESG. "I think it's definitely here to stay."(26:53) - The current state of play in shareholder activism.(31:20) - Two issues to consider in the current market:"It's very common for public companies to underestimate the extent to which investors don't care so much about the messenger as they do about the message. They care about the substance.""The need for companies to change how they manage their IR strategy has never been stronger."  "Most companies are still operating in an old and outdated IR model [still tailored mostly to fundamental investors, when it should address a much broader set of constituencies]."(36:53) - On board diversity and social changes. "This has impacted the investor dialogue, including human capital management."(41:42) - On the rise of private markets and startup governance issues. How PJT Partners has allowed them to expand their governance footprint beyond only voting (in public companies). Now they tap all investor issues (their team has about ~70 people now).(47:28) - The books that have greatly influenced his life:Crossing to Safety (1987), by Wallace Stegner.The Return of Martin Guerre (1983), by Natalie Zemon Davis.(48:48) - His mentors: his scout master (Marty Burger), his grandmother, and his former his boss at BGI (Naozer Dadachanji, who became a board member and investor in Camberview Partners).(51:42) - Quote that he thinks of often, or lives his life by: "The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy." (Martin Luther King).(52:54) - An unusual or absurd habit that he loves: family tradition of watching "the price is right" (while they're home sick).(53:35) - His time as Mayor of the City of Piedmont.(55:06) - The living person he most admires: his wife.Abe M. Friedman is a Partner and Head of PJT Camberview, based in San Francisco. Mr. Friedman joined PJT Partners through the acquisition of CamberView Partners in 2018. Mr. Friedman founded CamberView in 2012 and served as its Chief Executive Officer through 2018. Before founding CamberView, Mr. Friedman was Managing Director and Global Head of Corporate Governance and Responsible Investment at BlackRock. Prior to that role, he served in leadership positions, including Global Head of Corporate Governance, at Barclays Global Investors from 2005 until the company merged with BlackRock in 2009. In 2003, Mr. Friedman helped found Glass, Lewis & Co. and served as Chief Policy Officer and General Counsel. If you like this show, please consider subscribing, leaving a review or sharing this podcast on social media. __ You can follow Evan on social media at:Twitter @evanepsteinLinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/epsteinevan/ Substack https://evanepstein.substack.com/Music/Soundtrack (found via Free Music Archive): Seeing The Future by Dexter Britain is licensed under a Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 United States License

When it comes to stories of reinvention and forging new paths, there’s one historian whose body of work stands out. This week, Danièle sat down with Dr. Natalie Zemon Davis over a cup of tea and talked about some of her favourite trailblazers, how she sees Medieval Studies today, and how historians can use their work to bring people together across cultures

We examine how Europe's peasant majority worked, played, and survived in the late Middle Ages and the early modern era, including the elaborate customs governing land tenure, marriage, and inheritance. We consider how, during the recovery following the Black Death, steadily growing population and rising prices put the squeeze on commoners as well as the nobility, forcing peasants to seek out more marginal lands and toil for more meager rewards, while encouraging landlords to raise rents and evict tenants. At the same time, growing armies and governments laid a heavy burden of taxes and conscription on the third estate. Finally, we examine the wave of peasant rebellions that roiled Europe in the late 1400s and early 1500s, as commoners fought back against impoverishment, rising rents, taxes, and the enclosure and sale of common lands.

Jeremy Paxman and Mary Beard argue heatedly and entertainingly about the books they love, with presenter Harriett Gilbert acting as referee. Jeremy's choice is Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk by Ben Fountain: a rollercoaster of a novel that's been called the Catch-22 of the Iraq War. The Return of Martin Guerre by Natalie Zemon Davis is classicist Mary Beard's recommendation. It's a depiction of French peasant life that's been described as even greater than the film of the same story. Travels with my Aunt, a genuinely funny novel by Graham Greene, is Harriett Gilbert's contribution.

Natalie Zemon Davis and Amitav Ghosh: Storytelling and the Global Past John-Paul Ghobrial (History, Churchill College) This public lecture will bring together the prize-winning historian Natalie Zemon Davis and the celebrated novelist Amitav Ghosh to reflect on prevailing approaches to writing about the global past. Masterful storytellers in their own right, both speakers have experimented in novel, poignant, and bold ways with several of the key questions facing global historians today. In doing so, they have also embraced the productive tension at the boundaries of history and fiction. The event, therefore, is intended as much as a reflection on global history as an opportunity to consider wider issues of narrative, plausibility, and authenticity in historical writing in its myriad forms. In doing so, it will encourage the audience and participants to think together about the limits and opportunities facing historians and novelists, respectively, in their attempts to depict the global past.

University of Toronto history professor, Natalie Zemon Davis, with her contribution to 9/11: Ten Reflections after the Passage of Ten Years: An Opportunity to Contemplate and Remember. It was recorded on September 13, 2011. The event was produced by the Munk School of Global Affairs in conjunction with the Centre for the Study of the United States.
