Annulation de la journée d’agrégation du 23 novembre

novembre 22nd, 2007 by postmaster

Chers amis,
Les difficultés persistantes dans les transports et la menace croissante de blocage de notre amphi à Paris VII nous obligent à renoncer à notre journée d’étude agrégative du vendredi 23 novembre sur La Deffence et L’Olive de Du Bellay. Nous en sommes désolés. Nous vous remercions de l’attention que vous avez manifesté pour cette manifestation; nous vous prions de faire savoir cette annulation à vos étudiants pour qu’ils ne se déplacent pas en vain, et nous vous invitons à attendre la parution Cahier Textuel en préparation, qui regroupera les textes des communications prévues pour cette journée.
Avec nos regrets et notre fidèle amitié.

Marie-Madeleine Fragonard, Pascal Debailly, Michel Magnien et Jean Vignes.

Conférence de P. White, 8 novembre, Clare College, Cambridge

novembre 8th, 2007 by postmaster

CAMBRIDGE SOCIETY FOR NEO-LATIN STUDIES

Thursday 8 November, 5.30pm in the Godwin Room, D Stair, Old Court, Clare College

Paul White (Cambridge), ‘Badius Ascensius and the Commerce of Learning: Print and Profit in Early Sixteenth-Century France’.

Jodocus Badius Ascensius (1462-1535) was one of the most prolific printers of the early period of French humanism. Based first in Lyon, and from 1503 in Paris as a printer on his own account, he produced for the most part
large-format Latin texts, to which he often appended his own commentaries for a beginner-level audience. Badius, as a businessman, was concerned with the manufacture and sale of commodities for a profit. But as a scholar
and educator, he knew also that knowledge is a gift from God and therefore cannot be sold. In this paper I will argue that the language of commerce and mercantilism underpins Badius’s entire conception of learning. In his
prefaces and commentaries Badius imagines his transactions in the marketplace of education not in terms of gifts between friends, but in terms of accumulation and investment of capital. Commercialism constitutes the principal symbolic framework Badius uses to understand the circulation of knowledge and the mechanisms by which it is distributed.

Wine will be served during the discussion

ALL WELCOME
