Éditions du Felin has announced the launch of its new “Éclairage” collection, a line of short-format history books designed to make the past more accessible to a wider readership. The initiative responds to the growing competition from digital screens by offering a tactile, engaging alternative.

The first title in the series, “Éclairage sur le Moyen Âge,” was released on 16 October. Written by Laurent Decaux, the book invites readers to rediscover the Middle Ages through surprising narratives and an unprecedented reading path.
