    Light in the Religions of the Book: A Multidisciplinary Approach

    If light is a valuable tool for the development of buildings, it also meets the requirements of practical and functional needs.  Beyond its purely aesthetic role, it is indeed a way to delineate the space and to organize its occupation by defining spatialities and temporalities adapted to the functions of the building. In order to assess the significance of spatial and temporal dimensions of light, a cross-reading of architectural, archaeological, textual and iconographic sources might be particularly fruitful. The theme of light which, somewhat complex, constitutes a privileged entry point not only to the study of man's relationship to space and the sacred, but also to the development – within or between monotheisms – of influences, exchanges, ruptures, continuities and legacies. The goal of the conference is to explore the theme of light in the East and in the West, during the Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages, in a transdisciplinary perspective and within five thematic panels.

    Premières rencontres d'archéologie de l'Ifea : archéologies et espaces parcourus

    En novembre 2010, l’Institut français d'études anatoliennes inaugurera un événement qui, projeté de longue date, n’avait pu encore aboutir. Ainsi, à compter de 2010, l’Ifea organisera chaque année les Rencontres d’Archéologie à l’Ifea qui visent à réunir l’ensemble des acteurs français en ce domaine et en Turquie ainsi que leurs partenaires turcs et étrangers. Il s’agit non seulement d’offrir une plateforme scientifique de rencontres aux chercheurs, mais aussi d’accroître le dynamisme des activités archéologiques françaises en Turquie en développant le réseau scientifique et institutionnel existant. Ces rencontres auront aussi pour ambition de resserrer les liens entre institutions, personnels scientifiques français et turcs et de développer le vivier des jeunes chercheurs.
