  Military orders and territoriality - between the East and West

  Entre Orient et Occident

  Nous proposons ici, non pas d’envisager une étude exhaustive et globale de la relation des ordres militaires à la territorialité, mais plutôt de réfléchir sur les dimensions qu’elle recouvre, d’essayer de discerner les particularités qui lui sont propres, les caractéristiques des implantations des ordres, variables selon le niveau d’échelle, la zone géographique et la société considérés. Afin de tenir compte de ces spécificités inhérentes au rapport, conscient ou non, que les ordres militaires entretiennent avec les territoires qu’ils occupent (envisagés dans leurs dimensions sociales, humaines, économiques, juridiques, matérielles, culturelles, etc.), même partiellement et pour une durée variable, ainsi que la manière dont leur présence s’inscrit dans ces lieux, plusieurs axes et directions, évidemment liés les uns aux autres et en interaction constante, sont soumis à la réflexion des participants.

  Ottoman Urban Studies Seminar (2009-2010)

  Post-Ottoman Cities

  What is the historical experience of cities in the former territories of the Ottoman Empire - in the Balkans, Anatolia, the Middle East, and North Africa - in dealing with the impact of global changes and the transformation from Empire to nation States? How did people of different cultural, social and religious backgrounds live together? How are such examples of conviviality, conflict, migration, and urban regimes of governance and stratification conceptualized? And how have urban traditions been reinterpreted, and what bearing does this have on modern conceptions of civil society, multicultural societies, migration, or cosmopolitanism. These and other questions will be addressed in this year’s Seminar in Ottoman Urban Studies. Séminaire organisé par Ulrike Freitag et Nora Lafi.

  Daily Life in Ottoman Towns

  What is the historical experience of cities in the former territories of the Ottoman Empire - in the Balkans, Anatolia, the Middle East, and North Africa - in dealing with the impact of global changes and the transformation from Empire to nation States? How did people of different cultural, social and religious backgrounds live together? How are such examples of conviviality, conflict, migration, and urban regimes of governance and stratification conceptualized? And how have urban traditions been reinterpreted, and what bearing does this have on modern conceptions of civil society, multicultural societies, migration, or cosmopolitanism. These and other questions will be addressed in this year’s Seminar in Ottoman Urban Studies, with a specific focus on daily life issues. This seminar is supported by the research program ‘Europe in the Middle East – The Middle East in Europe’ EUME with funds of the Fritz Thyssen Stiftung.

  Bourgeois Seas. Revisiting the middle classes of Eastern Mediterranean Port Cities

  Although there has recently been a notable surge of interest in the study of non-European middle classes as well as of Eastern Mediterranean port cities, most historians working on the field of the Eastern Mediterranean rarely treat port cities as sites where classes were formed and contested and where bourgeoisies asserted their class hegemony. This conference aims at bringing these two critical trends together. Following recent historiographical trends proposals are invited on any port city of the Eastern Mediterranean during the long nineteenth century, until about the aftermath of the First World War.
