By examining the history of universal history from the late Middle Ages until the early nineteenth century we trace the making of the global. Early modern universal history can be seen as a response to the epistemological crisis provoked by new knowledge and experience. Traditional narratives were no longer sufficient to gain an understanding of events. Inspired by recent developments in theory of history, the volume argues that the relevance of universal history resides in the laboratory of intense, diverse and mainly unsuccessful attempts at thinking history and universals together. They all shared the common aim of integrating all time and space: assemble the world and keep it together.

En adoptant un point de vue résolument terrestre et le poussant jusqu''à ses ultimes conséquences, Pascal expose dans les Pensées le point aveugle de la conscience séculaire de son époque, et par là les racines cachées de la nôtre. Il s''agit ici d''étudier le discours moderne sur la créature sans créateur qui s''inaugure ainsi. Explorer ce nouvel espace anthropologique, où l''humain se constitue à l''extérieur de la théologie, mais sans dompter pour autant la soif humaine de l''absolu. Penser avec Pascal l''être-créature de l''homme.
