Narrative folklore in becoming: persistance and innovations
In a comparative perspective on the very long distance, the conference invites specialists in the field of Alpine narrative, western, central and eastern, to discuss with their colleagues who work on the Pyrenees and the Himalayas, via the Corsica, the Apennines or the Balkans. The main aim is to draw up new reflections on the evolution of these narrative practices and to understand their changing, profoundly heterogeneous, but at the same time universal.

Artisans and workshops in Ancient and Medieval Italy
Initiation into research workshop
Pour la cinquième année consécutive, les membres de l’École française de Rome proposent une semaine d’initiation à la recherche consacrée à la question des artisans et des ateliers dans l’Italie antique et médiévale. Des conférences méthodologiques, des ateliers pratiques et des visites permettront d’aborder cette thématique. La formation aura lieu à Rome, du 25 au 29 janvier 2021 et est ouverte aux étudiantes et étudiants de master 1 et master 2 de diverses disciplines (histoire, histoire de l’art, archéologie et sciences sociales), inscrits dans une université française, dont les recherches s’intéressent de près ou de loin aux productions artisanales antiques et médiévales.

Archives of archaelogical research
L'École française de Rome et le Centre Jean Bérard en partenariat avec l'Institut national d'histoire de l'art organise un atelier de formation doctorale sur l'apport des archives historiques à la recherche archéologique qui aura lieu à Rome et à Naples du 26 au 30 octobre 2020. L’examen d’une documentation archivistique en grande partie inédite et encore peu exploitée permet de reconstituer les contextes archéologiques d’œuvres antiques découvertes depuis le XVIIIe siècle et aujourd’hui privées de provenance précise. Les fonds de dessins, cartes et photographies anciennes, mémoires des académies et des instituts scientifiques du XIXe siècle, constituent un corpus documentaire qui, une fois complété par l’examen physique des œuvres et des structures identifiées, permet d’apporter de précieuses informations à l’archéologie actuelle et à l’histoire culturelle des sociétés anciennes. À la croisée des regards et des approches de l’historien, de l’archéologue, de l’historien de l’art et du conservateur, l’atelier a pour objectif de présenter aux jeunes chercheurs une méthodologie éprouvée par les travaux récents mais encore peu connue dans le milieu universitaire.

Historiography of the Perception of Islam through Manuscripts, Korans and their Displacement
The aim of this workshop is to approach the question of the relationship between Christianity and Islam through the study of the production, circulation and uses of Arabic manuscripts, and mainly Korans, in the late medieval and early modern Mediterranean Europe. Our assumption is that the Balkans, Italy and the Iberian Peninsula form an axis of circulation which is especially significant for our understanding of the Mediterranean Sea as a comprehensive space of cultural, political and religious contact.

Caging the sky: art, history and anthropology of aviaries
Deeply rooted in the long history of technology, architectural construction, and the domestication and acclimatisation of animal species by humans, aviaries are an interdisciplinary research subject offering multiple approaches for studying both past and present bonds, connecting societies to their environment, to explore the place of birds in the collective imaginary, but also to appreciate the originality of works or constructions that were conceived in order to represent, signify or house animal life. They make a spectacle of the flight of birds for the external observer and tend to celebrate the captivity of animals as a state of “semi-freedom”.

Call for papers - Representation
In/visible: representation, discourse, practices, “dispositifs”
Interdisciplinary Graduate Conference
How is the materiality of the visible world inscribed in its cultural representations? What are the more or less visible actors and mechanisms in the genesis of a cultural artefact? Should the visible / invisible binomial be considered as an anthropological constant or as the effect of a certain epistemological constellation? To what extent does visibility coincide with power and, therefore, how should one represent the in/visible? These are just some of the questions that cultural studies, in their innate interdisciplinarity and methodological heterogeneity can formulate with respect to the issue.

The Renewal of Buildings and Spaces as Urban Policy, from Antiquity to the Present
Everywhere in Rome, monuments are covered with ancient or modern inscriptions that not only contain the name of the original builder but also commemorate their restoration. Popes from the Quattrocento and Cinquecento who acted as urban planners, such as Sixtus IV, presented themselves as ‘restorers’, even when they were actually modernising the City. This phenomenon is not restricted to the Renaissance period: many Roman emperors already claimed to be rebuilders, such as Augustus who repaired all the damaged temples of Rome according to the Res Gestae, or Septimius Severus who was called Restitutor Vrbis on his coinage. Rome thus seems to be a city that constantly needs to be restored, rebuilt, born again. This conference aims to investigate how the notions of restoration and rebuilding were a driving force of Rome’s urban transformation throughout its history, from Antiquity to the 21st century, as well as a political program put forward by the authorities and an ideal more or less shared by the different key actors of the city.

Florence, a city of art, and the French - the creation of a myth
L’objet du colloque est le rôle des Français dans la construction d’un mythe de Florence comme « ville d’art » à travers l’histoire, l’histoire de l’art et les diverses formes de production artistique. À Florence, plus que partout ailleurs en Italie, la beauté de la ville, le paysage urbain, les grands artistes et leurs chefs-d’œuvre ont fait l’objet d’un véritable processus de mythification culturelle depuis le XIXe siècle. Florence apparaît ainsi dans la culture française comme un lieu central et idéal dont le souvenir et les représentations infusent très largement la conception générale des arts, de l’humanisme, de la Renaissance italienne, du génie artistique. Si la vivacité du mythe florentin a été bien étudiée chez nos voisins européens, en particulier en Angleterre et en Allemagne, la présence des Français à Florence, l’importance du mythe florentin et ses développements intellectuels et artistiques en France ont été relativement négligés par la critique.

Multi-ethnic cities in the Mediterranean world
History, culture, heritage
This meeting aims to foster a discussion about the continuities and disruptions which have conditioned the multi-ethnic dimension of Mediterranean cities. We would like to focus on the specificities of places and time in our millennial history that have produced both tangible and intangible cultural heritage. We would like to broaden the traditional horizons of our disciplines under the issues of our times, questioning the role of historical research and the forms of scientific communication nowadays, when old practices seem more challenged than ever by the overwhelming expansion of new technologies.

The italian fascism through the prism of contemporary arts
Reinterpretations, montages, deconstructions
In a more or less explicit way, daily news bring to our attention the survival of forms and values which rely on fascist imagery. Thinking about fascism through the prism of contemporary arts means to deal with a term whose significance has to be read at least in a double sense: on one hand, the historical experience of the regime that ruled Italy from 1922 to 1943; on the other hand, by extension, the very form of totalitarian power. Contemporary arts’ gaze seems to work on these two different albeit related topics: the Italian fascism as historical event (faced with all the troubles of its memories), and the fascism as the fundamental process of power’s relationship and rituals.

In partibus fidelium. Missions in the Levant and knowledge of Christian Asia (19th-21st centuries)
Inaugural conference of the MisSMO conference: Ecole française de Rome (EFR), Fondazione per le scienze religiose Giovanni XXIII (Fscire), Institut français d’archéologie orientale (Ifao), Institut français d’études anatoliennes (IFEA), Institut français du Proche-Orient (Ifpo), Leiden University, Università di Padova.
Ce colloque international se penchera sur l’assimilation en Europe de connaissances relatives aux cultures chrétiennes-orientales et sur le rôle que les missions ont joué dans ce processus. Ces connaissances nouvelles sont fondées en grande partie sur les travaux menés sur le terrain, au Moyen-Orient, en particuliersur les manuscrits conservés dans les monastères et les patriarcats, et plus généralement sur le patrimoine littéraire, linguistique, archéologique, cartographique et musicologique, des communautés chrétiennes installées.

Ethnomusicology and heritage - SEMEP 2016/2017
SEMEP 2016/2017
Le Séminaire en ethnomusicologie et patrimonialisation (SEMEP) souhaite renforcer les relations en ethnomusicologie et en anthropologie musicale entre la France et l’Italie, à travers des activités spécialement destinées aux étudiants du deuxième et troisième cycles. Ce « multi-séminaire » possède une vocation transfrontalière, interdisciplinaire et transculturelle. Il se veut un moment d’échanges entre experts de deux pays et d’approfondissement de thèmes au cœur du débat scientifique international contemporain. Après avoir examiné, l’année dernière, l’histoire et l’ethnomusicologie de la patrimonialisation musicale en Italie et en France, le sujet de cette seconde édition 2016-2017 du SEMEP est dédié à la patrimonialisation des objets sonores et des instruments de musique.

The universe of Gennaro Magri - dance, music and opera in Naples, in Renaissance Europe
Danse, musique et opéra à Naples, dans l’Europe des Lumières
Le colloque a pour objectif de se pencher sur l’œuvre de Gennaro Magri (ca. 1735-1780), maître de ballet au Théâtre San Carlo de Naples et auteur du Trattato teorico-prattico del Ballo (1779). Il s’agira d’approfondir nos connaissances sur la vie et sur la carrière de Magri en Italie et en Europe, et plus largement de réfléchir sur le rôle de la danse à Naples dans le contexte européen, en étudiant en particulier les enjeux culturels et sociaux liés à la relation entre danse noble et danse comique, entre style italien et style français dans le dialogue interculturel entre les nations.

39th annual International Committee for Museology (ICOFOM) symposium
Have visitors ever wondered how museums acquire the wonderful things they present to the enquiring public? It is certain that some do, but how many would see the museum as a predator? Would they ever recognize the museum activity of acquiring the valued collections that are put on display as the result of a predatory undertaking? It is true that museums are discerning but eager recipients of gifts offered by individuals who cross their threshold and who are willing to donate or bequeath their treasured possessions to their local museum. These ongoing acts of charity aside, museums have other avenues of collection-building which they explore and have done so since their inception.

History, approaches and comparative methodologies in France and Italy
Si d’une part la patrimonialisation de « biens immatériels », dans les cas musicaux, visant principalement comme processus institutionnalisé d’identification, de collecte de données et de recherche, de mise en valeur, de transmission et de revitalisation d’un certain patrimoine à sauvegarder, est sans doute aujourd’hui un des principaux terrains de réflexion et d’action des ethnomusicologues et anthropologues de la musique, de l’autre cette thématique offre la possibilité d’étendre la réflexion également aux normes statutaire de la discipline.

Beyond the great beauty. Rescaling heritage and tourism
Intimate relationships exist between the enhancement and preservation of cultural heritage and tourism as a fundamental driver for regional development. The time has come to give due recognition to there scaling processes affecting heritage and tourism destinations, intended both as upscaling and downscaling. Rescaling heritage andtourism destinations can be seen as both a strategy pursued by national and regional agencies, or as unintended consequences of the constant interplay between an increasingly complex array of stakeholders, including cross-national institutions and local communities.

The commerce of objects of Christian devotion: comparative approaches (16th-19th centuries)
L’objet de piété a longtemps été relegué en marge de l’histoire religieuse, sous l’étiquette du « populaire ». Dans le sillage de l’« histoire sociale des choses » (A. Appadurai), cette rencontre entend mettre en évidence la fécondité de l’objet de dévotion pour l’histoire du commerce et de la consommation, dans l’Europe catholique, mais aussi en Orient et dans les terres de mission. Comment aller au-delà du « vertige de la liste » (U. Eco) et du simple constat de leur prolifération ? Dans une perspective comparée, chacun des participants avancera, pour son terrain et dans son champ de compétence (histoire, histoire de l’art ou conservation), une proposition pour restituer la vie sociale des objets de piété modernes, entre XVIe et XIXe siècle.
