    Digital History: a Challenge of “Doing History”

    In 1973 Emmanuel Le Roy Ladurie wrote that in history, as elsewhere, what counts is not the machine, but the problem. According to him, the machine is only a useful tool as it allows to tackle new questions and use original methods (“L’historien et l’ordinateur” in Le territoire de l’historien, Paris, 1973, pp. 11-14). The rise of digital technologies is changing the ways historians practice their craft. In the last twenty years, the practice of historians has changed rapidly. In the age of big data historians collect, disseminate, and store information in a different way. New digital tools in the field of history have transformed how historian can disseminate knowledge. A wide range of historians have also been brought together to focus on how digital history relate to area of traditional historical scholarships.

    Journal of Festive Studies

    The journal’s stated aim is to draw together all academics who share an interest in festivities, including but not limited to holiday celebrations, family rituals, carnivals, religious feasts, processions and parades, and civic commemorations. The specific contributions of the historical, geographical, sociological, anthropological, ethnological, psychological, and economic disciplines to the study of festivities may be explored but, more importantly, authors should offer guidelines on how to successfully integrate them. How can one reconcile, for instance, the discourse of “festival tourism,” dominated by the positivistic, quantitative research paradigm of consumer behavior approaches, with a more classical discourse, mostly flowing from cultural anthropology and sociology, concerning the roles, meanings and impacts of festivals in society and culture?

    La pratique sociale de l'écrit à travers la documentation médiévale bourguignonne

    Productions, remplois, mises en registre

    Le propos de ce colloque est de considérer la documentation bourguignonne médiévale, tout support et forme confondus, comme élément de départ d’une réflexion élargie et dans la longue durée sur les pratiques et les usages de l’écrit, en prenant comme fil conducteur la génétique documentaire et ses transformations. Il s’agira ainsi de considérer cette documentation comme un objet, ou des objets, d’étude globale, à l’intersection des contenus et des matérialités tangibles. Dès lors, on s’intéressera aux contextes et aux techniques de production, aux principes et aux structures de mise en registre, d’assemblage et de transmission, et aux enjeux des traitements et des remplois dans le temps.
