  Study days - History

  A global history of Trieste in the 18th century

  Sources, methods and scales of analysis

  À l’occasion de la célébration du tricentenaire de la fondation du port franc de Trieste, cette journée d’étude a pour objectif de rassembler des chercheurs confirmés et doctorants travaillant sur les sources de l’histoire de Trieste. Elle vise à faire à la fois un état des lieux des fonds publics et privés disponibles à Trieste et à Vienne, ainsi qu’en Europe et en Amérique du Nord, et de confronter des approches propres à des champs historiographiques nationaux et disciplinaires variés. Par le croisement de ces fonds et la démarche interdisciplinaire qui l’accompagne, nous souhaitons interroger les concepts d’histoire globale et d’histoire connectée et proposer une nouvelle histoire collective de Trieste interrogeant ses sources et ses échelles d’analyse.

  Black presence in Early Modern France

  Lumières is a journal published by the Presses Universitaires de Bordeaux for the University Bordeaux Montaigne. Its 34th issue, scheduled for June 2020, will focus on Black minorities in France during the Early Modern period. Black studies are far from being a novelty in France, with several in-depth studies already published over the past ten years. Nevertheless, these researches tend to focus always on the same period (the pre-revolutionary years)and the same cities (Paris or Bordeaux). The 34th issue of the Lumières journal aims to provide other points of view and open up research opportunities: therefore, it will put forward new studies in order to show how diverse the experiences of Black people living in France during the Early Modern period were.

  Construction Techniques and Writings on Architecture in Renaissance and Early Modern Europe

  Thematic issue of the journal Opus Incertum (Florence University Press)

  The 2020 issue of the open access journal Opus Incertum (Florence University Press) aims to examine, through selected case studies, the complex relationship between construction practices and architectural writings in Renaissance and early modern Europe. Situated at the crossroads of several disciplines (architectural history, history of science and technology, history of literature), the subject can be approached from different perspectives. To begin with, confrontations of texts on construction techniques with the material realities of extant buildings may reveal, for specific contexts, to what extent these texts operated as vehicles for the transmission of technical know-how, and how much weight they gave to topoi borrowed from ancient authors.
