  Heritage under protection and threat - selection criteria and the tools necessary to deal with the emergency and share memory?

  « Il faut se hâter car les ruines s'amoncellent ; le temps détruit, et les hommes aident consciencieusement le temps » écrivit Leo Drouyn à la fin du XIX^e siècle. Ce triste constat est-il d'un autre temps ? Notre journée d'études internationale propose un tour d'horizon qui, à partir d'une série d'exemples, nous permettra de mieux apprécier la situation actuelle. Patrimoine protégé ou menacé, quels critères de sélection ? Quels outils pour parer à l'urgence, conserver et partager la mémoire ?

  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.
