  Territorial imagery and the creation of a Dutch identity (1579-1702)

  This two-day symposium aims to shed light on the ways in which Dutch depictions of national and transnational territories participated in the formulation of a shared identity. Multidisciplinary discussions will allow us to examine the terms of territorial imagery in Dutch visual culture, and their links with the formation of a national myth in the Early Modern Dutch Republic.

  Images and Borderlands: Mediterranean basin between Christendom and Ottoman Empire in the Early Modern Age

  Following in the footsteps of Fernand Braudel, an increasing number of recent studies show that the Mediterranean basin might be considered as a “borderland”, “borderscape”  or “Frontier” suggesting that this area is not strictly a border between Christian and Muslim civilization, but a basin in which the two traditions and cultures meet and overlap, with an extraordinary variety of reactions to the hegemonic practices (acceptance, conflict, refusal, dissent). The aim of this conference is to bring together scholars who will discuss, from different perspectives and with a multidisciplinary approach, the variety of themes (topics) which revolve around the common issue of reflecting the problem of borderlands as a consequence of the encounter between Christendom and Ottoman Empire in the Early modern Mediterranean. The starting point of examination will be images, i.e. the usage of images (pictures, mental images, literary images and other visual representations …) as historical evidence.

  When cities meet forests

  Environmental approaches of interactions between cities and forest supplies during the Middles Ages and the Early modern period. 12th International Conference on urban History, European Association for Urban History – Main Session M16

  As places of consumption and production European medieval and early modern cities exerted a enormous pressure on neighbouring woodlands. Some historical studies have already discussed the way cities tried to impone their control on these lands emphasizing the diversity of needs which were fulfilled by forest exploitation (wood, timber, charcoal, grazing…). They often concluded that urban pressure resulted in an inexorable degradation of the forest cover. Indeed local woodlands and forests products could probably never meet the demand. In order to face shortage or, better, to prevent it, urban authorities attempted on one hand to extend their control on more and more distant forests and to attract interregional or « international » trade flows. On the other hand, they tried to regulate the local market so as to ensure access to several important needs regarding urban economy (charcoal, timber).

  Archéologie des campagnes et histoire rurale (Moyen Âge – époque moderne)

  Deuxième école d'été d'histoire rurale de Flaran

  « Archéologie des campagnes et histoire rurale – Moyen Age et époque moderne » : le thème choisi pour cette édition 2013 de l’école d’été d’histoire rurale permettra de s’interroger sur les relations entre l’histoire et l’archéologie rurale. Plus que les oppositions, ce sont d’abord les relations, les combinaisons et les interrelations disciplinaires qui nous semblent devoir être questionnées à travers les différentes traditions scientifiques européennes (Angleterre, Allemagne, Belgique, Espagne, France, Italie). Ce tour d’horizon européen constituera l’intérêt majeur de l’école d’été 2013. La réflexion mettra également l’accent sur le développement récent de l’archéologie moderne, ou post-médiévale, pratiquée en Angleterre et en Italie, par exemple, mais qui reste encore embryonnaire dans plusieurs pays européens et sur l’apport et les modalités de recherche de l’archéologie préventive.
