  Creating the Europe 1600-1815 Galleries

  This conference celebrates the opening of the V&A’s new Europe 1600-1815 Galleries. It will introduce some of the new patterns of living that laid the foundations for our modern world. The papers will be presented according to the three main themes that create a narrative structure for the displays and interpretation in the galleries: first, that, for the first time ever, Europeans systematically explored, exploited, and collected resources from Africa, Asia and the Americas in their art and design; second, that France took over from Italy as leader of fashion and art in the second half of the 17th century; and third, that ways of living came to resemble those we know today.

  Call for papers - Representation

  Représentations du peuple

  Representing the people

  Les participants seront amenés à s’interroger sur la notion de peuple. Comment le peuple se définit-il ? De façon autonome et/ou dans son rapport aux autres ? Pourquoi, comment et quand la notion de peuple émerge-t-elle dans l’histoire, la langue, la littérature et les arts ? Le peuple s’écrit-il lui-même ? Sinon, qui se charge de lui donner une voix ? Cette démarche est-elle légitime ou intéressée ? A qui ces représentations sont-elles destinées ? Quelles sont enfin les modalités de ces représentations ?
