    Craftsmen and metalworking in medieval cities: 35 years later

    In honour of Professor Paul Benoit

    The symposium addresses themetallurgies of iron, copper, tin, lead and precious metals, which produced a wide variety of objects necessary for urban life at the end of the Middle Ages. The nature, volume and possible standardization of production may be studied, as well as the needs of the city, the practices and techniques of craftsmen, their knowledge and know-how. The relationships between the crafts and between the craftsmen themselves might be examined, including dependency links, pluriactivity, networks of sociability or local relationships in urban areas. The identity and regulation of these crafts, their integration into urban society, their relationship with the surrounding rural areas and with other cities may also be revisited. The symposium will be interdisciplinary in nature, promoting dialogue between historians, archaeologists and archaeometry, without excluding anthropological approaches to learning and knowledge

    Digital humanities and Jewish geography in Europe

    Perspectives for the revision of medieval Jewish history before 1300

    L'université d'été du projet-pilote franco-allemand « Nouvelle Gallia-Germania Judaica » est destinée aux jeunes chercheurs autour. Elle ambitionne de relever le défi thématique et technique de l'écriture d'une nouvelle histoire des lieux juifs avant 1300 au long du Rhin. À partir de sept lieux représentatifs du Moyen-Âge juif en France et en Allemagne, les interprétations traditionnelles de l'histoire juive de ces lieux sont examinés à la loupe et servent de « champ d’expérimentation » pour identifier ainsi que pour mettre en cause de manière critique différentes approches de recherche.

    Conference, symposium - History

    Broadcasting health and disease

    Bodies, markets and television, 1950s-1980s

    In the television age, health and the body have been broadcasted in many ways: in short health education films, school television, professional training materials, TV ads, documentaries, reality TV shows and news, as well as stand-alone videos distributed to specific audiences. This three-day conference proposes an exploration of how television formats have influenced and staged bodies, health and healthy practices from local, regional, national and international perspectives, and how these TV programmes spread the conviction that viewers could and should invest in their health and shape their own body.

    The power of algorithms

    Digital technologies and power relations in the 20th-21st centuries

    À la différence des acteurs individuels et collectifs, les développements technologiques sont souvent considérés comme neutres dans leurs intentions comme dans leurs effets. Ce panel questionne ce parti pris, en s’appuyant sur l'histoire récente des technologies numériques et de l'internet. Ce panel prend pour objet le pouvoir des algorithmes, à savoir le rôle des technologies numériques dans les rapports de pouvoir de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle jusqu'à aujourd'hui. En particulier, ce panel recherche des cas d'étude concrets qui montrent comment le développement ou la mise en application de technologies numériques ont modifié les rapports de force établis.
