« Des guerres que aucuns nobles font entre eulx » La faide à la fin du Moyen Âge

In France and in Liège, the feud among the lay aristocracy was alive and well as the Middle Ages drew to a close. The author examines the parties involved, their actions, and the links between the genesis of the state and the development of the feud, which led to a redefinition of the relations between the king and the nobility.
