Summary

Examining Catholic activism in the south-west of France during the middle decades of the sixteenth century, this book argues-contrary to prevailing views-that the phenomenon was both widespread and militant even before the formation of the Catholic League in 1576. By comparing and contrasting the successes and failures of activists in three key Catholic strongholds - Bordeaux, Toulouse and Agen - it is possible to come to a much fuller understanding of the means, methods and social make-up of organizations that attempted to rouse Catholic sentiment against the growing influence and power of the Huguenots.

Excerpts

This book offers an historical account which questions the novelty of the current information society. In support of this the authors examine the history and traditions in Britain of two separate but related information-rich occupations- information management and information science - by repositioning their origins before the age of the computer, and by identifying the forces driving their development from 1900-1960. It will be essential reading for students, researchers and practitioners in the library and information science field, and for sociologists and historians interested in the information society.
