  Text as object in the Middle Ages

  The International Medieval Congress (IMC) is the largest medieval studies conference in the world. In line with the Special Thematic Strand in 2019 “Materialities” and the recent creation of the strand “Manuscript studies”, we organize sessions on “Text as object in the Middle Ages”. Texts, indeed, are at the same time an idea and a form. The latter is the result of a combination of inherited social uses and specific intentions by the various actors involved in transmitting the text as idea. This process begins with the authors, continues to the craftsmen (parchment and paper makers, copyists and chancery clerks, painters and illuminators, sculptors and weavers, booksellers…) and then on to possessors, readers, archives and libraries. All textual artefacts are concerned: manuscripts, charters, inscriptions, tapestries, seals, coins, etc.

  The study of legal documents: new approaches to papyrology and Arab diplomacy

  Ces journées d'études « ILM » qui ont pour principal objectif l’étude des actes légaux d’un point de vue papyrologique et diplomatique, intéressent en premier lieu les spécialistes en tous types de documents en arabe. Qu’ils soient chercheurs en papyrologie ou en diplomatique en général, ils ne manqueront pas de tirer avantage des documents légaux et officiels traités par l’équipe du projet européen « ILM ». De même sont les bienvenus ceux dont la recherche est focalisée sur les systèmes normatifs musulmans dans leurs dimensions historique et sociologique. Ces deux intérêts combinés vont favoriser une approche croisée des documents arabes, dont sauront bénéficier les chercheurs en vue de renouveler le regard sur l’organisation politique et judiciaire du monde arabo-musulman au Moyen Âge.
