  Building using timber frames in the country and city in the 13th-18th centuries

  A pluridisciplinary approach to a construction technique in Europe

  Portant sur l’architecture rurale et urbaine en pan debois, ce colloque réunira des chercheurs européens afin de croiser les réflexions sur de nombreuses thématiques : approvisionnement des chantiers et économie de laconstruction, modes d’habitation, aspects structuraux, mise en œuvre des matériaux et décor seront ainsi comparés sur une longue période, s’étalant du XIII^e au XVIII^e siècle. Archéologues, historiens de la construction, ethnologues, chercheurs à l’Inventaire ou architectes, par la diversité de leur approche, éclaireront l’ensemble des caractéristiques et spécificités des pans de bois, mettant en évidence particularismes et savoir faire locaux, apparition de procédés novateurs ou au contraire perpétuation de certaines techniques.

  Dominion of the Sacred

  Image, Cartography, Knowledge of the City after the Council of Trent ("In_bo" vol. 12, no. 16)

  Between the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, the Italian political geography was polarized by a number of cities of different sizes and traditions: Rome and Florence, Milan and Naples, Genoa and Venice, Turin and Modena, either ancient republics or new dynastic capitals, satellites of the great European monarchies or small Signorias. The conjunction — less frequently the conflict — between the mandates of the Council of Trent and the interests of the ruling élites of those cities set the foundation for novel forms of social, cultural and spiritual control, fostering new urban structures and policies, deeply conditioned by the presence and government of the sacred.

  Greece(s) - Histoire de l'art journal, no 86

  Histoire de l'art, no 86

  2021 marks the bicentennial of the Greek uprising which resulted, at the end of a long war, in the country’s independence:Greece was thus born as a modern nation while romanticism, particularly in France, made it one of its favorite themes,carrying out out a vibrant philhellenic movement. The commemoration should not, however, cover up that there were andare other Greeces, from antiquity to our own day. The theme of this issue is also given in the plural since the construction of Greek art in the modern era is but one of the phenomena considered here. It is the plurality of constructions of Greecein art which unifies the collection of studies and essays which we envision.
