  Art history for artists: interactions between scholarly discourse and artistic practice in the 19th century

  The conference seeks to examine the shaping of art history as a discipline during the 19^th century in relation to artistic training and exchanges between artists and scholars. The development of art history has been associated with an array of socio-political and economic factors such as the formation of a bourgeois public, the politics of national identity and state legitimacy or the needs of an expanding art market. This conference aspires to explore yet another, less studied dimension: the extent to which the historical study of art was also rooted in an intention to inform contemporary artistic production.

  "Masters" and "natives": digging others' pasts

  Ce colloque analysera les relations entre les archéologues occidentaux et la population locale, puis les archéologues occidentaux et ceux nationaux, afin de comprendre quelle place a été accordée aux acteurs locaux au cours des réflexions archéologiques et de l’écriture de l’histoire. Nous analyserons cette problématique sur la base de la documentation provenant de différentes régions comme l’Asie centrale post-soviétique, la Russie, l’Afghanistan, la Grèce, l’Inde, l’Iran, le Pakistan, le Moyen-Orient, le Népal ; cette documentation sera abordée à travers divers supports et médias comme le cinéma, la littérature, les ouvrages scientifiques et les vécus des archéologues œuvrant sur les terrains extra-européens. Nos réflexions seront menées dans la « longue durée », afin d'enquêter sur les tenants et les aboutissants des relations entre les idéologies coloniales et les imaginaires nationaux des pays ex-coloniaux.

  Sources and Documents on the Reign of Husraw I

  The sixth century – in particular Husraw I’s reign, the most brilliant one during the Sassanid dynasty – was pivotal in the history of ancient Iran. During that period, the military was expanded, the state apparatus restructured, and many cultural aspects were assimilated from conquered or neighbouring countries. The sources enabling us to reconstruct the history of that reign come from various fields and in several languages. This great diversity of sources, both in terms of type and expression, can pose an obstacle for historians looking for pertinent information among such heterogeneous material.
