  Islamic heritage in Europe

  Over the past decades, there has been a growing interest among scholars in analysing how the Islamic heritage in Europe has been perceived, described, preserved, erased, negotiated or transformed in different areas of Europe, from medieval to modern times. However, those debates seldom crossed the borders of regional approaches. The aim of this training school is to discuss those issues from different and complementary perspectives, including art history, but also philosophy, history of science or anthropology, and to question the traditional regional narrative through a comparative examination of Islamic monuments in a wider Mediterranean perspective.

  Cultures matérielles, cultures visuelles du costume dans les cours européennes (1300-1815)

  Material & visual cultures of dress in european courts (1300-1815)

  Ce colloque propose d’interroger la question vestimentaire dans les cours européennes, dans une perspective temporelle large, partant en amont de la fin du Moyen Âge, quand s’invente un « corps de mode » et quand les cours prennent leur essor. Il s’achève avec les derniers éclats de la cour impériale française. Le colloque de Versailles sera l’occasion de faire le point sur les travaux dans ce domaine, sur un temps long, entre 1300 et 1815, qui permettra aux participants de prendre la mesure des évolutions, de comparer les cours entre elles et d’appréhender leurs influences mutuelles. Il s’inscrit dans trois champs de recherche : le champ très actif des Court studies qui ont mis en évidence le rôle de la cour comme lieu de pouvoir et de culture, celui de l’histoire de la culture matérielle et de la consommation et celui de la culture des apparences vestimentaires et des cultures visuelles, domaines de recherche actuellement en plein essor.
