Seconde partie
La transmission du patrimoine, biens fonciers comme mobiliers, est en partie éclairée par des sources dont l’abondance est très inégale selon l’époque et le lieu : les testaments. Ces journées d’étude permettront une approche comparative entre la France et l’Italie, du Moyen Âge à l’époque moderne. Ces deux terrains offrent des situations contrastées tant du point de vue juridique que documentaire.

Call for papers - Early modern
Knowledge, Symbolics and Uses of a Versatile Material in Europe (1450-1550)
This call for papers targets a wide range of disciplinary fields (e.g. history, art history, heritage science, literature, philosophy). This peer-reviewed edited volume aims to understand the uses and meanings of Gold as it pervades all areas of European societies, on a methodologically restricted time-frame (1450-1550). It intends to move beyond traditional research, so as to map out the social and cultural dynamics of this precious and versatile material in Renaissance Europe.

L’ordre des savoirs dans la Lotharingie prémoderne
Une comparaison des espaces du savoir matériel et médiatique
Le thème de l’« ordre du savoir » est devenu un nouveau domaine de recherche d’une grande importance scientifique, politique et sociale avec le virage numérique. Les recherches sur les bibliothèques et les archives de l’époque prémoderne et moderne ont largement ouvert la voie dans cette direction. L’approche choisie ici pour le Moyen Âge se veut innovante en élargissant le concept des « lieux du savoir » tels que les bibliothèques, les archives ou les universités au moyen d’une démarche comparative aux domaines des manuscrits et des documents écrits, iconographiques et symboliques. Ainsi, en dehors des catalogues de bibliothèque et des inventaires d’archives traditionnellement étudiés, la conception médiatique des textes ou images tels que les encyclopédies, les chroniques, les cartulaires, les nécrologes, les livres de comptes, les inventaires de biens, les programmes iconographiques, les manuscrits hagiographiques ou autres manuscrits composites ainsi que, pour la fin du Moyen Âge et le XVIe siècle, les sources cartographiques, sera également analysée en tant qu’ « espaces du savoir ».

The Worlds of Pre-Modern Neutrality (ca. 1400-1800): Norms, Institutions and Practices
This symposium aims to contribute new insights to the long-term history of neutrality, focusing on its "pre modern" dimension broadly understood (ca. 1400-1800). Indeed, the law of neutrality started to emerge in the Early Modern Age through the practices and beliefs of the European state system, but also from its interactions with non-European normative and cultural systems. Different but complementary angles of approach can be used to understand this phenomenon: e.g. diplomatic history, IR history, political history, economic history and legal history. Throughout history, polities as well as private actors have interpreted neutrality in flexible and divergent ways, e.g. proposing a proactive-assertive approach or a more passive and inward looking one. Benefiting from multiple disciplinary perspectives, the symposium takes into consideration both the theory and the practice of neutrality, advancing our knowledge of the often-contested conceptualisation of legal regimes at sea as well as on land. Such a conceptualisation depended on the interaction between situations of peace and diverged across different temporal and spatial coordinates.

Voyager et commercer du Moyen Âge à la période moderne (XIIe-XVIIe siècle)
Principalement adressée aux littéraires, aux historiens ou encore aux géographes, cette manifestation scientifique proposera une réflexion sur les voyageurs marchands au cours de la période s’étendant du XIIe au XVIIe siècle en se fondant sur un corpus de récits et journaux de voyage, de carnets de bord, de manuels pour marchands, ou encore de notations chiffrées relatives aux transactions commerciales opérées par les voyageurs. Il s’agira d’analyser les récits et retours d’expériences de voyageurs marchands ainsi que la manière dont ceux-ci témoignent de leurs pratiques mais aussi de l’état des voies du commerce, de la création ou de l’évolution de réseaux d’échanges ou encore de la circulation de denrées et d’objets en tous genres.

The European space. Geo-economic balances and State powers in the long run
In the construction of the European space(s) a crucial role has been played by economic actors and relations, which often overpass national borders and intertwin with the nature and roles of political powers and national States. Even well before the last globalization (or re-globalization), traditional government systems were pressed by the internationalization of economies: by centrifugal pushes, the need for external resources, or the emergence of new actors on the international stage in economic, technical, and social fields, that have increasingly influenced both the private and the public life. In more recent times, then, a new institutional framework developed at the supranational, European, level getting new functions and involving actors, such as trade unions, charities, business interests, scientific institutions, and churches, reinforcing the dynamics of cooperation, integration, and convergence beyond national borders.

The Hanse and the Atlantic 1300–1500 actors, trade, and conflicts
The merchants of the German Hanse – a commercial association active from the middle of the 14th century – are mentioned at the end of the Middle Ages all around the North and Baltic Seas, where they dominated trade for a long time. However, although the presence and activity of the Hanse in the Atlantic area is well documented, it remains little studied in historiography. In the case of France, the lack of scientific cooperation with Germany at the end of the 19th century, when major German publishing programmes resulted in the publication of the main editions of Hanse sources, led to a serious lack of representation of French archives in these collections, which are still used assiduously by German researchers.

Keeping the Prince at home: the management of royal sites (14th-19th century)
Faisant suite à la conférence Building the Presence of the Prince qui s’est tenue à Utrecht en novembre 2019, ce colloque international vise à réunir des experts de différents domaines historiographiques (histoire, histoire de l’art, histoire de l’architecture et pensée politique), avec pour objectif de développer une analyse comparative sur la manière dont les espaces royaux étaient entretenus dans une perspective transnationale et diachronique (XIV-XIXe siècle). Le cadre chronologique de ce colloque est intentionnellement celui de la « longue durée », permettant ainsi l’examen des questions traitant de l’entretien depuis la naissance de la géographie royale et de ses développements jusqu’au XIXe siècle, lorsque les lieux et espaces royaux ont été transformés en sites du patrimoine national, et qu’en conséquence, l’accent a été mis sur la conservation et les restaurations.

Craftsmen and metalworking in medieval cities: thirty five years later
The symposium Craftsmen and Metalworking in Medieval Cities: 35 Years Later addresses the metallurgies 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.

Reputations (products, brands, origins) and markets
Historical perspectives
Ce colloque réunit des historiens, du Moyen Âge à l’époque contemporaine, pour porter un regard historique sur la réputation des produits, des marques et des origines géographiques afin de mieux cerner leur développement, leur fonctionnement et leur influence dans le jeu des échanges. À travers des études de cas variés, des réflexions plus générales et en croisant les méthodes d’analyse, il s’agira de saisir, selon les époques et les lieux, les outils et les mécanismes de la construction de ces réputations et la manière dont elles agissent dans l’économie.

Transformation, renovation, continuity
Medieval culture and war conference
It is an undeniable fact of human history that war has been on many occasions and in many different historical contexts a powerful stimulus for innovations and change in culture, politicals, and thought. During periods of transition warfare had a crucial role in medieval societies. Following previous meetings in Leeds (2016), Lisbon (2017) and Brussels (2018) the 2019 Medieval Culture and War Conference will be held in Athens in the Faculty of History and Archaeology of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUA). The conference will focus on ‘Transformation, Renovation, and Continuity’.

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

Administrative accountability in the later Middle Ages
Records, procedures, and their societal impact
The emergence of new types of financial records, the creation of institutional procedures, and the birth of a bureaucratic corps in a society in which accountability had been largely social and moral represent key developments in the history of the later Middle Ages. The colloquium will explore the multifaceted reality of administrative accountability in Western Europe, c. 1200-1450. Because the renewed interest in the subject makes methodological exchanges all the more timely, the colloquium will provide a venue for testing new approaches to the sources. Special attention will be given to underexplored archival documents, such as the castellany accounts (computi) of late-medieval Savoy, and to topics that have hitherto received less attention, such as the social impact of institutional consolidation. Comparisons with better-known texts, such as the English pipe rolls, are also encouraged.

Climate and Societies in the Mediterranean during the Last Two Millennia
Current State Of Knowledge and Research Perspectives
This two-day international conference aims to highlight recent and challenging interdisciplinary studies dealing with complex historical climate/society interactions in Mediterranean during the last two millennia. The study of these existing connections can help in better understanding the role played by past climatic events in the eruption of regional conflicts, in forced migration and displacement of people, in periodically appearing infectious disease outbreaks or in subsistence crises like food shortages and famines Similarly, it seems necessary to identify and analyze socio-economic and technological responses (e.g. water supply systems) together with mitigation and general adaptation strategies, insofar as they existed, to cope with climate change.

Art and economy in France and Italy in the 14th century
La section d'histoire de l'art de l'université de Lausanne organise, pour les 19-20 octobre 2017, un colloque qui souhaite explorer la problématique des liens entre art et économie pour une période antérieure à la Renaissance, en prenant en compte un long XIVe siècle. Dans le but de stimuler une approche comparative on propose d’aborder par ce questionnement un espace correspondant grosso modo à la France et à l’Italie actuelles. Les organisateurs souhaiteraient recevoir des contributions aussi bien de la part d’historien de l’art que d’historiens de l’économie concernant tous les domaines de la création figurative : de la peinture à la sculpture, des textiles à l’orfèvrerie, de la céramique aux vitraux et autres carreaux de pavement.
