    The Renaissance of Mineral Springs in Italy and Europe 1200-1600

    History, Culture and Ideas/Imagery

    From the 14th century thermalism flourished in Italy, Europe and, last but not least, in the German Empire. Because of the elitist patients, who come from afar to visit the baths, ancient springs are revitalized, new ones developed, and extended with a sophisticated infrastructure. Simultaneously to a changed body culture an autonomous balneological discourse emerges for the first time, which feeds on ancient and Arabic sources and on empirical observations made at this time. In addition to the miraculous, the special social conditions one experiences during a stay at a spa far away from home are reflected upon primarily in contemporary literature, but also in painting, in which the ancient tradition plays an important role. Our conference aims at bringing together different disciplinary and national approaches to a topic that is flourishing, but has so far been treated only sporadically.

    Le musée d’art en France et en Allemagne, 1919-1939 : recherches en muséographie

    Museografie von französischen und deutschen K

    Les Musées de Strasbourg présentent d’octobre 2009 à février 2010, une exposition intitulée « Hans Haug, homme de musées : une passion à l’œuvre ». Hans Haug (1890-1965) a marqué de façon durable la vie et l’histoire des Musées de Strasbourg, dont il fut conservateur de 1919 à 1963. Historien d’art, mais aussi artiste, passionné de théâtre, il a développé une muséographie personnelle, privilégiant les ambiances, la mise en scène, les restitutions d’intérieurs et le pittoresque des lieux. Cette exposition, qui se veut l’occasion d’une réflexion sur l’histoire de la muséographie servira de support à deux journées d’études organisées en février 2010 et consacrées à l’aménagement et à l’architecture du musée d’art dans les premières décennies du XXe siècle.
