Images of Italian Mathematics in France
The contributions in this proceedings volume offer a new perspective on the mathematical ties between France and Italy, and reveal how mathematical developments in these two countries affected one another. The focus is above all on the Peninsula’s influence on French mathematicians, counterbalancing the historically predominant perception that French mathematics was a model for Italian mathematicians. In the process, the book details a subtle network of relations between the two countries, where mathematical exchanges fit into the changing and evolving framework of Italian political and academic structures. It reconsiders the issue of nationalities in all of its complexity, an aspect often neglected in research on the history of mathematics. The works in this volume are selected contributions from a conference held in Lille and Lens (France) in November 2013 on Images of Italian Mathematics in France from Risorgimento to Fascism. The authors include respected historians of mathematics, philosophers of science, historians, and specialists for Italy and intellectual relations, ensuring the book will be of great interest to their peers.
Ordinary Citizens and the French Third Republic
This book analyzes the negotiation of socio-political concepts, such as citizenship, republicanism, and representation, between “ordinary” French citizens and their representatives in parliament during the early twentieth century. By examining the letters written to French Deputies of the Chamber (députés) at a tumultuous time in French political history, the author sheds light on the role that politically unorganized citizens played in the process of democratization. Central to the investigation are the aspirations, wishes and demands of individuals acting on their own or as spokespersons for informal communities. The way that they formulated personal requests in their letters to dép...

Le travail en Europe occidentale des années 1830 aux années 1930 - Mains-d’œuvre artisanales et industrielles, pratiques et questions sociales
Le travail est un lieu commun des sociétés humaines ; les occidentaux lui accordent une importance essentielle, aussi bien dans leur vie quotidienne qu’en lien avec l’économie mondiale. Au cœur de ces préoccupations, le programme d’histoire contemporaine des concours du CAPES et de l’agrégation place son questionnement dans le contexte de l’industrialisation qui a marqué l’Europe occidentale des années 1830 jusqu’à 1939. À partir des réflexions présentées par des enseignants et chercheurs spécialistes, le présent ouvrage aborde l’étude des pratiques et des représentations des mains-d’œuvre artisanales et industrielles, sous le prisme de l’articulation entre histoires économique, sociale, politique et culturelle. Trois parties en organisent le contenu : une approche globale des repères et enjeux fondamentaux sur la période, des contributions thématiques ciblées et des études de cas régionales et nationales.
Fascism's European Empire
This 2006 book is a controversial reappraisal of the Italian occupation of the Mediterranean during the Second World War, which Davide Rodogno examines within the framework of fascist imperial ambitions. He focuses on the European territories annexed and occupied by Italy between 1940 and 1943: metropolitan France, Corsica, Slovenia, Croatia, Dalmatia, Montenegro, Albania, Kosovo, Western Macedonia, and mainland and insular Greece. He explores Italy's plans for Mediterranean expansion, its relationship with Germany, economic exploitation, the forced 'Italianisation' of the annexed territories, collaboration, repression, and Italian policies towards refugees and Jews. He also compares Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany through their dreams of imperial conquest, the role of racism and anti-Semitism, and the 'fascistization' of the Italian Army. Based on previously unpublished sources, this is a groundbreaking contribution to genocide, resistance, war crimes and occupation studies as well as to the history of the Second World War more generally.
Photo Archives and the Place of Photography
This collection of chapterss investigates the effects of mobility and place on a range of photographic archives and explores their potential for cross-disciplinary dialogue. The book explores photographic images used in the study of art, as well as the implications of placing European images of non-European cultures in an archive, album, library, or museum. It also addresses questions of digital space, which renders images more visually accessible, but further complicates issues relating to location. The contributors consider these issues through case studies based on a variety of archives, institutions, and disciplines. Just as photographs are conceived as unstable objects, so conventional ...
