The set in the process of cinematographic and audiovisual creation
Dans la lignée de nombreux travaux universitaires consacrés à la thématique du tournage dans le cinéma et l’audiovisuel, la présente journée d'études doctorales vise à interroger les spécificités de ce moment du processus de production au cours duquel le projet d’un film ou d’une création audiovisuelle entre dans sa phase de réalisation concrète. Nous invitons de jeunes chercheurs travaillant sur des sujets très différents, aussi bien en économie, en sociologie, qu'en histoire ou en esthétique du cinéma, à se saisir de cet objet de réflexion large et transversal, afin d’enrichir leurs questionnements mutuels.

The 1910s. Decorative arts, fashion and desing
En s'appuyant sur la diversité et les paradoxes dont font par les domaines des arts appliqués dans les années 1910, ce colloque international tentera de degager les spécificités en la matière de cette période à la fois héritière du XIXe siècle mais déjà bien ancrée dans le XXe. Les arts décoratifs et le design seront abordés dans une perspective aussi large que possible, qui devra également envisager les liens évidents de ces domaines avec l'architecture.

Operative knowledges of matter, from Renaissance to industrialization
Following the renewal of the history of Technology and of the history of chemistry, this Research Seminar intends to explore operative knowledge in chemistry in connection with several fields including economics, political management, consumption and production processes. It seeks to shed a light, since the Early modern period, on various configurations where experimentation, exploration, transformation of Matter were held, through a wide range of technical devices. We will underline cross-skills, transfers and hybridization of processes, and we will show how operative knowledge fostered multiple appropriations: we will then explore the diversity of practices and know-how which allowed specific actions on substances and transformations of matter, and which were the basis of innovation and industrialization and of the reshaping of environment on the long run.

Work on screen: social memories and identities through cinema
Since the early 20th century, work in contemporary societies has suffered several processes of change, which, in the context of the current economic and employment crisis, demand equating the structuring of social identities that are built and modified through work. During this period, cinema has been a privileged vehicle for the creation and dissemination of representations on work and, therefore, the shaping of social memories. This international and multidisciplinary seminar aims at gathering and discussing contributions that analyse the social processes involved in the formation of work identities and representations through cinema. It welcomes papers that highlight the main continuities and discontinuities of work memory narratives from the early 20th century to the present days, based on the analysis of specific films or bodies of films (both documentaries and fictions) and their reception.

Merchants, jurists and other "intermediate groups" in Early Modern Southern Europe
Merchants, farmers, jurists, clerks in large institutions, secretaries, independent landowners, local elites and highly sought master craftsmen, among many others, are individuals with an ambiguous social status. Looking at who was not born exactly noble, nor exactly commoner, but stood on the border between one world and the other, is one of the goals of this initiative. As part of a project developed in Portugal focusing on the Holy Office’s familiaturas, it will be held on September 16 and 17, 2015, a workshop at Escuela Española de Historia and Archaeological in Rome. Our aim is to select a total of 8 applicants, that will be joined by 4 guest speakers, for a joint reflection on the dynamics and profiles of ‘intermediate groups’, as well as on the methodologies for their study in Early Modern Times.

Les textiles à différentes époques et en différents lieux de production et d’usage
Perspective. La revue de l’INHA, numéro 2016-2
Il s’agira autant de rassembler un ensemble d’articles faisant état des recherches les plus récentes – voire en cours, comme c’est le cas en Suisse, en Allemagne et en France – que de suivre plusieurs fils singuliers qui ont parcouru le temps : de la broderie médiévale aux œuvres arachnéennes de Louise Bourgeois, en passant par les questions liées à la parure antique ou à la route de la soie... On profitera également de l’occasion pour interroger l’imagerie du métier à la manière dont Diego Velázquez l’aborda dans Les Fileuses (1657, Madrid, Museo Nacional del Prado), œuvre phare d’un corpus abondant qui appelle justement des travaux originaux au sein desquels le textile est envisagé comme lieu métaphorique et intermédial, la toile s’y révélant à la fois support et motif.
