    Conference, symposium - History

    The practices of writing in Cistercian abbeys (12th - mid 16th century)

    Produce, exchange, control and conserve

    La célébration en 2015 du neuvième centenaire de la fondation de Clairvaux donne l’occasion de soumettre la diversité du monde cistercien au prisme de ses productions d’écriture, en resserrant l’examen sur l’écrit « pragmatique ». Ce colloque se focalisera, autour de trois axes (production, conservation, manipulation), sur l’écrit diplomatique, administratif et de gestion. Le périmètre de l’étude englobera les monastères cisterciens d’hommes et de femmes dans l’ensemble de l’Occident entre le XIIe et le milieu du XVIe siècle.

    Empire of letters and Tigers of parchment

    International Medieval Congress

    Script is not a neutral communication medium. Scripts were particularly used throughout the Middle Ages to stage the idea of Empire, power and domination. The writing has the ability to connote authority and Empire and to inspire respect. On the other hand, the scriptural domain is a world in itself with its coherence and history. The idea of an ‘Empire of letters’ may have emerged within this world too. Both parts of this “empire of letters” are relevant for the palaeographical sessions on the specific thematic strand of ‘Empire’ organised at the International Medieval Congress 2014 in Leeds and sponsored by Apices and Cap Digital.
