  Four Post-doctoral positions on "Luxury, Fashion and Social statuS in Early Modern South-Eastern Europe"

  New Europe College - Institute for Advanced Study

  Following the European Research Council competition for Consolidator Grants (2014), New Europe College became the Host Institution of such a grant. The project title is Luxury, Fashion and Social statuS in Early Modern South-Eastern Europe and its Principal Investigator is Constanţa Vintilă-Ghiţulescu, researcher at New Europe College and at the “Nicolae Iorga” Institute of History in Bucharest. The project aims to trace the role luxury played in the modernisation process in South-Eastern Europe, taking into account the specific features of the region and how South-Eastern European peoples, and their Byzantine and Ottoman heritage are viewed through the stereotype of “Balkanism”. The project’s findings will help towards a better knowledge of changes in European society in its transition to modernity, and of similarities and differences between the various regions of Europe.

  Tribute to Marthe Bibesco

  Ce colloque est, tout d’abord, un hommage à la complexe personnalité de Marthe Bibesco. Nous envisageons de focaliser deux de ses traits identitaires, la féminité débordante, de même que ses multiples formes de manifestation, et la mobilité concrétisée / exercée dans ses nombreux voyages faits tout le long de sa vie. Au-delà des données biographiques inédites, nous sommes intéressés par l’exemplarité du destin de Marthe Bibesco. Dans ce sens, nous voulons investiguer le profil de la femme intellectuelle, écrivaine, dynamique, mondaine, voyageuse.
