Mark Blok (1886-1944) - a famous French historian of origin, author of works on Western European feudalism. The full title of the work: "Miracle Kings: An essay on the ideas about the supernatural nature of royal power, widespread mainly in France and England." This study by Mark Blok is devoted to the widespread belief in France and England in the Middle Ages and the New Age that the touch of the royal hand can heal a patient suffering from scrofula. This problem may seem private, but at the same time Block gives answers to fundamental questions: what is the origin of monarchical power and what feelings connect the monarch with his subjects; how the beliefs prevalent in large human communities are born and how they die; what is the mindset of the people and how it evolves. "Miracle Kings" is one of those books thanks to which the "New Historical Science" was born in France, which revolutionized the humanitarian knowledge of the 20th century.
