Construction Techniques and Writings on Architecture in Renaissance and Early Modern Europe
Thematic issue of the journal Opus Incertum (Florence University Press)
The 2020 issue of the open access journal Opus Incertum (Florence University Press) aims to examine, through selected case studies, the complex relationship between construction practices and architectural writings in Renaissance and early modern Europe. Situated at the crossroads of several disciplines (architectural history, history of science and technology, history of literature), the subject can be approached from different perspectives. To begin with, confrontations of texts on construction techniques with the material realities of extant buildings may reveal, for specific contexts, to what extent these texts operated as vehicles for the transmission of technical know-how, and how much weight they gave to topoi borrowed from ancient authors.

Heraldry in Medieval and Early Modern State-Rooms
Towards a Typology of Heraldic Programmes in Spaces of Self-Representation
Heraldry was an ubiquitous element of state-rooms. Whether in palaces of kings and princes, castles of noblemen, residences of patricians, city halls or in cathedral chapters, heraldic display was a crucial element in the visual programme of these spaces. Despite its omnipresence, however, heraldic display in state-rooms remains largely understudied so far. This workshop aims to explore these heraldic programmes in state-rooms in medieval and early modern Europe and to suggest an initial typology of this phenomenon.

The current state of research in castel archaeology in the Poitou-Charentes and Loire regions
L'équipe de castellologie du CESCM de Poitiers (UMR 7302 du CNRS) organise deux séminaires annuels depuis près de quinze ans, l'un thématique, l'autre dédié aux actualités de la recherche et travaux en cours. Le jeudi 27 mars prochain, un séminaire sur l'actualité de la recherche en archéologie castrale en région Poitou-Charentes et Pays de la Loire est organisé à l'université de Poitiers sous la direction de Nicolas Prouteau (membre associé CESCM) et Didier Delhoume (SRA Poitou-Charentes).

Bénédictins gothiques, bénédictins modernes
Architecture et décor monumental des monastères bénédictins de la fin du Moyen Âge au début de l'époque moderne en Europe, XIIIe-XVIIe siècles
Le CERCOR (CNRS, UMR 8584) et le Centre André Chastel (UMR 8150) s'associent pour organiser une journée d'études consacrée à la production artistique monumentale des monastères bénédictins de la fin du Moyen Âge au début de l'époque moderne (XIIIe-XVIIe siècles). Durant cette période qui a jusqu'à présent peu retenu l'intérêt des chercheurs de nombreux chantiers furent pourtant lancés dans les monastères bénédictins tant en France qu'en Europe. Ce sont ces chantiers qui feront l'objet des communications de la journée.
