    Islamic heritage in Europe

    Over the past decades, there has been a growing interest among scholars in analysing how the Islamic heritage in Europe has been perceived, described, preserved, erased, negotiated or transformed in different areas of Europe, from medieval to modern times. However, those debates seldom crossed the borders of regional approaches. The aim of this training school is to discuss those issues from different and complementary perspectives, including art history, but also philosophy, history of science or anthropology, and to question the traditional regional narrative through a comparative examination of Islamic monuments in a wider Mediterranean perspective.

    Art et réforme grégorienne en France et en Espagne

    Ce colloque vise à mieux connaître les réalités espagnoles et françaises de la période. À travers l’étude de cas exemplaires, on s’efforcera de déterminer le rôle de l’image dans la transmission des valeurs et les modalités de cette transmission, la circulation et l’adaptation des modèles, la définition des liens entre texte et image, etc. De manière plus générale, il s’agira de voir si, dans les cas choisis, la traduction figurée des idées de réforme délivre des indications complémentaires ou supplémentaires, par rapport aux sources écrites, sur la participation des grands ordres monastiques aux efforts de l’Eglise, dont Marmoutier et Cluny, mais aussi celle des laïcs, souvent négligée ou niée.
