    Monkhood and feminine monastic spaces (5th-12th century)

    Crossed perspectives of archaeology and history

    Dans la mouvance de l’historiographie anglo-saxonne, puis française dès les années 1980, les médiévistes se sont penchés sur les particularités du monachisme féminin. Longtemps considérés, pour notre période, comme des annexes secondaires des monastères d’hommes, les établissements féminins répondent pourtant dès l’Antiquité à des aspirations spirituelles spécifiques et jalonnent l’espace chrétien de manière quasi exponentielle jusqu’au XVIIIe siècle. L’approche se voudra ici résolument interdisciplinaire pour réunir historiens, historiens de l’art et archéologues, qui travaillent souvent dans des cadres administratifs différents, autour d’objets communs d’études abordés avec des approches, des problématiques et des méthodologies différentes. L’éclatement des travaux masque bien souvent leur complémentarité. Cette journée d’études tentera de la faire valoir.

    The Office as an interior (1880-1960)

    The so-called “second industrial revolution” meant a significant growth in the tertiary sector (banks, insurance companies, etc.); at the same time new administrative bodies arose both in industry and at agencies and public authorities. This went hand in hand with a massive increase in the numbers of employees. The employee became the socio-professional figure of the urban modernity, whereas the professional woman became increasingly important. The symposium addresses the development of the office in order to analyse the interdependency between physical and social space, materiality and practices, strategies and tactics, structures and individuals. Likewise, it is intended to approach the office from a historical perspective, as attention is directed towards the significance of the office for structuring and transforming the sociocultural situation from the turn of the last century through the end of the 1950’s.
