Questions occur during the talk in order to support discussion. Attention is paid to read and comment primary sources. Meetings of “bibliographical seminar” will be devoted to the discussion of a book with its author.The seminar is held in French and in English and is particularly intended for young scholars : Ph.D. and master students.
