Summary Le mythe d'Europe dont les premi res attestations remontent au VIIIe si cle av. J.-C., dans les Po mes Hom riques et la Th ogonie d'H siode, fa onne de nouvelles visions, figures et images dans les productions litt raires europ ennes tout comme dans les milieux artistiques, d s l'Antiquit gr co-romaine nos jours. Il s'agit d'un voyage nigmatique dont il est impossible de d terminer les v ritables pr mices et dont la fin est probablement encore lointaine.

Avec un regard multidisciplinaire et diachronique, cet ouvrage explore de diff rentes facettes de la r ception du mythe. Les contributeurs proposent des r flexions autour de la caract risation du personnage mythique d'Europe, pour les p riodes archa que et classique, et autour de la r laboration du mythe l' poque hell nistique et humaniste. L'enqu te s' tend jusqu' l' tude de la persistance du mythe d'Europe dans l'art et dans la litt rature des poques moderne et contemporaine.

bandes de violons en Europe : cinq siecles de transferts culturels
, Brepols Publishers, 2018 Paperback. 676 pages, illustrated, 190x 290 mm., French, ISBN 9782503581187.
Histoire et anthropologie des ensembles populaires de violons en Europe. Les fortes ressemblances entre anciens ensembles menetriers de violons et actuelles bandes de violons ? tsiganes ? d?Europe centrale, autorisent l?hypothese des transferts culturels. Les Tsiganes etant presents en Europe depuis le xve siecle, les processus de mise en contact entre eux et les populations locales (Gadje) sont multiples : circulations humaines de toutes sortes, cadre repressif et carceral associe au vagabondage, frequentation, par les Tsiganes, des nobles, des cours, de l?espace economique et performatif de la foire, des milieux du theatre itinerant. Par ailleurs, au xviie siecle, les bandes de violons ? surtout francaises ? ont essaime dans toute l?Europe, notamment centrale. De ce fait, les actuelles bandes de violons europeennes, temoignant de l?histoire migratoire tsigane, des echanges entre Tsiganes et Gadje et entre Europeens eux-memes, constituent une memoire interculturelle de l?Europe. Si l?itinerance, l?oralite, la peripherie sociale et culturelle, la dilution du ?Bohemien? dans le ?vagabond? complexifient le traitement d?une telle recherche en raison de la rarefaction des sources directes, l?un des objectifs de cet ouvrage est de reveler le dynamisme et le mouvement des societes europeennes anciennes, l?extreme complexite de leur fonctionnement musical, l?enchevetrement de leurs realites sociales, economiques, politiques, culturelles. Cette histoire des bandes de violons en Europe doit, certes, etre apprehendee dans le cadre des cours, mais aussi d?une culture menetriere urbaine, rurale, parfois foraine et marginale, itinerante et nomade. L?autre ambition de cet ouvrage est de proposer une nouvelle approche de la technique et du jeu violonistiques des anciens menetriers violonistes, a partir de l?etude des consorts populaires actuels de violons de certaines regions d?Europe occidentale (Italie), centrale et balkanique.

Al millennia lang onderhouden Azie en Europa intense relaties. Zowel op het land - via de zijderoute - als op zee ontwikkelden zich commerciele en politieke banden tussen het Oosten en het Westen. Veroveraars als Alexander de Grote, Attila en Dzjengis Khan reisden op zoek naar glorie, rijkdom en macht. Ook Marco Polo, Zheng He en Magelhaen waren gefascineerd door de rijkdommen, de zijde, de kruiden, het porselein. De handel opende de weg voor de verspreiding van de grote religieuze en filosofische stromingen, onuitputtelijke inspiratiebronnen voor kunst en cultuur. De tentoonstelling A Passage to Asia belicht 2500 jaar van uitwisselingen tussen Azie en Europa aan de hand van schatten uit een 20-tal landen. Een tentoonstelling en een festival in de marge van de topconferentie ASEM (Asia-Europe Meeting) 2010. Asia and Europe form one giant continent, Eurasia, with an endless variation of landscapes, climates, fauna and flora, as well as a wide range of peoples and cultures. Asians and Europeans have been connected with each other for thousands of years. Two cultural factors seem to have linked and influenced the peoples of East and West for thousands of years, Trade and Faith. The book brings together for the first time a selection of 200 art objects from the cultural heritage of 16 Asian countries : Brunei, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Laos, Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, Pakistan, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. Specialist in different fields will largely inform the reader with new information. Depuis des millenaires, l'Asie et l'Europe entretiennent d'intenses relations. C'est sur terre - via la ? route de la soie ? - et sur mer que se sont developpes les reseaux commerciaux et politiques entre Orient et Occident. Des conquerants tels Alexandre le Grand, Attila et Gengis Khan ont voyage a la recherche de gloire, richesse et pouvoir. Marco Polo, Zheng He, Magellan, tous etaient fascines par les richesses, la soie, les epices, la porcelaine... Le commerce a ouvert la voie a la diffusion des grands courants religieux et philosophiques, sources d'inspirations inepuisables pour l'art et la culture. A Passage to Asia met en lumiere 2500 ans d'echanges entre l'Asie et l'Europe a travers les tresors d'une vingtaine de pays.

Memories in Multi-Ethnic Societies. Cohesion in Multi-Ethnic Societies in Europe from c. 1000 to the Present, I
, Brepols, 2020 Hardback, 424 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:21 b/w, 6 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503588902.
Summary The three-volume project Cohesion in Multi-Ethnic Societies in Europe from c. 1000 to the Present explores and seeks to find solutions to a crucial problem facing contemporary Europe: in what circumstances can different ethnic groups co-operate for the common good? They apparently did so in the past, combining to form political societies, medieval and early modern duchies, kingdoms, and empires. But did they maintain their ethnic traditions in this process? Did they pass on elements of their cultural memory when they were not in a dominant position in a given polity? This first volume of the project focuses on the cohesive function of memory, tradition, and identity politics in multi-ethnic societies. Featuring chapters written by authors from Southern, Central, and Eastern Europe, it presents sixteen case studies of the co-habitation or co-operation of different ethnic groups from the so-called 'peripheries' of medieval and early modern Europe that resulted in peaceful acculturation or the birth of a new identity on the basis of multi-ethnic political society. The volume suggests that ethnic identities were consciously accepted as one among various forms of identity that were possessed by social groups: they were rarely absolutized, and members of these groups preferred pragmatic approaches in their relations with other ethnicities.

Integrated Peasant Economy in Central and Eastern Europe. A Comparative Approach
, Brepols, 2024 Paperback, 264 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:30 tables b/w., 5 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503590042.
Summary Income integration based on the peasants' engagement in non-agrarian sectors is a prominent and widespread feature in the history of the European countryside. While listing a multitude of activities outside the narrow scope of farm management aimed at self-consumption, prevailing interpretations emphasize how survival was the goal of peasant economies and societies. The "integrated peasant economy" is a new concept that considers the peasant economy as a comprehensive system of agrarian and non-agrarian activities, disclosing how peasants demonstrate agency, aspirations and the ability to proactively change and improve their economic and social condition. After having been successfully applied to the Alpine and Scandinavian areas, the book tests this innovative concept through a range of case studies on central and eastern European regions comprising Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovenia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Ukraine. By enhancing our knowledge on central and eastern Europe and questioning the assumption that these regions were "different", it helps overcome interpretive simplifications and common places, as well as the underrepresentation of the "eastern half" of Europe in scholarly literature on rural history. That's why the book represents a refreshing methodological contribution and a new insight into European rural history.
