Crowd control in the Renaissance
Le contrôle des foules à la Renaissance
Published on Thursday, January 12, 2012
Abstract
Announcement
This seminar will discuss the notion of "crowd control' from various viewpoints, distinguishing "crowd controllers' and the "crowds controlled' in different loci : on the stage, in the Church, the royal entourage, urban/rural milieus, in the British Isles or elsewhere.
The seminar seeks to build on ideological and Foucauldian-based approaches to notions and instances of rebellion and social control, favored by critics in the 80s and 90s, by taking into account recent interdisciplinary research on manuscripts, law, iconography, film and performance studies, among others. Papers will discuss instances of crowd control, based on historical accounts, pamphlets, legal precedents, moral recommendations, or take fictional accounts from the stage or print culture. Theoretical approaches to the topic will also be welcome.
