With this essay on decolonizing ways of knowing, I seek to understand the phantom histories of my father’s French family. Filling in silences in written family accounts with scholarship on Marseille’s maritime commerce, African history, African Diaspora studies, and my own archival research, I seek to reconnect European, African, and Caribbean threads of my family story. Travelling from New Orleans to Marseille, Zanzibar, Ouidah, Porto-Novo, Martinique and Guadeloupe, this research at the intersections of personal and collective heritage links critical genealogies to colonial processes that structured the Atlantic world. Through an exploration of family documents, literature, and art, I travel the trade routes of la Maison Régis.

Anchored in the port of Marseille, this article studies encounters between international solidarity, American humanitarianism, and Vichy France’s nationalism in times of war and exile. Being the main free harbour in France after the country’s defeat against Germany in the spring of 1940, Marseille saw hundreds of thousands of refugees seeking refuge and exile on its shores. This massive flux gave rise to a local internationalism of humanitarian and solidarity networks bonded by an anti-fascist ideology. American humanitarians, diplomats, and radical leftist militants shaped this eclectic internationalism by providing crucial support for European refugees escaping the Nazi-backed state repression in France. Using the local archives of the department of Bouches-du-Rhône, this paper analyses how these actors and their ideologies met in Marseille and interacted with or against Vichy France’s nationalism. In the end, the extended historiography on refugees, American humanitarianism, solidarity networks, and French nationalism will be used to analyse global ideologies in a local context during the Second World War.

- When one looks at the presence of the foreigner in the city, the question of the peculiarity of the city and its local history is inevitably taken into account. In that regard, Marseille has always represented a unique laboratory in France. In the first part, the paper elaborates on the conditions of the emergence of the "second-generation" category in France in order to underline and criticize better in the second part the Urban Ecology and Marxist theories most often referenced when analyzing this topic. How do these theories translate into practice within the context of Marseille? Unlike the working-class world from Northern France, it appears that business activities in the broad sense - activities provided to the person in transit - , are a challenging and lucrative path providing social enhancement and promotion to the second-generation youth. It shows a transfer from father to son rather than an intergenerational clash. Such a clash is more noticeable between former migrants and new entrants in France.Keywords Marseille; immigration; second-generation; business activities.

The Corniche Kennedy is an emblematic road of the city of Marseilles in France. Located on the seafront, it was built in the 19th century and widened in the 1960s to create a corbelled pedestrian promenade. Its widening structure, made of slabs resting on corbels anchored in a retaining wall or on crossing structures, has been subjected for more than 60 years to a very aggressive marine environment and presents many damages. After having carried out the diagnosis of the structure, the Infrastructure Department of the Metropole of Aix-Marseille-Provence selected the engineers of the Setec Group to carry out the complete project management for the rehabilitation of the Corniche Kennedy. Between 2018 and 2022, the Corniche Kennedy underwent major rehabilitation work, using modern techniques to prevent and treat the main pathology of the structure, the corrosion. This article presents all the steps of the rehabilitation of the Corniche Kennedy from diagnosis to maintenance of the structure after renovation.

Abstract This paper argues that unsettled people, far from being “marginal” individuals, played a key role in shaping early modern cities. It does so by going beyond the traditional binary between rooted and unstable people. Specifically, the paper takes the temporary places of residence of this “unsettled” population – notably inns (garnis in France, osterie in Italy) – as a vantage point to observe social change in early modern cities. The case studies are two cities which shared a growing and highly mobile population in the early modern period: Rome and Marseille. In the first section, the paper focuses on two semi-rural neighborhoods. This is to assess the impact of mobility in shaping demographic, urbanistic, and economic patterns in these areas. Moving from the neighborhood as a whole to the individual buildings which composed it, the second section outlines the biographies of two inns: Rome’s osteria d’Acquataccio and Marseille’s hôtel des Deux mondes. In turn, this is to evaluate changes and continuities over a longer period of time.

In 2016, the Musée des Civilisations de l’Europe et de la Méditerranée in Marseille hosted the ‘Made in Algeria: Généalogie d’un territoire’ exhibition which gathered cartographic depictions of Algeria from the earliest European encounters to modern images of an independent culture still bearing colonial remnants. The contemporary pieces, notably by Franco-Algerian artists Zineb Sedira and Katia Kameli, expose multiple layers of the past as they reformulate what had been erased by colonisation and what had been silenced by the subsequent ruptures of independence. Their images, like the artists who have migrated back and forth between Algeria and France across time, show accumulated layers of colonial memory enmeshed in contemporary images of the Algerian people and landscape. By assessing the marks still visibly mapped onto Algeria in the exhibition, this article explores how what is ‘Made in Algeria’ remains heavily marked by France.

Full textAbstract:
(English): In the bande dessinée Alger–Marseille: allers-retours, Algerian artist Nawel Louerrad and her French counterpart Benoît Guillaume recount their respective trips to Marseille and Algiers. Commissioned by Musée des civilisations de l'Europe et de la Méditerranée(MuCEM), their artistic project functions as a renewed museography aiming to foster a decentred gaze and improve Franco-Algerian relations. In this context, this article questions the nature of the exchanges generated by such a postcolonial museum project. Even if the two graphic contributions offer geo-poetic and artistic visions irreconcilable at first, I find that the album promotes an ethic of horizontality; it transforms itself into a space of cohabitation, of sharing even. The artists’ residencies across the Mediterranean, and the ensuing graphic production, promote a new artistic and cultural dynamic between Algeria and France.

Full textAbstract:
Documentary and archaeological evidence concurs in placing the foundation of Marseille by colonists from Phocaea in around 600 B.C. The site can only have been chosen with an eye to its maritime commercial potential. Surrounded on the landward side by a chain of hills, the city's immediate hinterland was tiny, and only moderately fertile. Geographically, in the words of Camille Jullian, ‘Marseille … semble tourner le dos à la Provence’. But thanks to its magnificent, sheltered, deep-water harbour, now known as the Vieux-Port, the city has been a focal point for Mediterranean trade throughout its long history, and its immediate landward isolation has not affected its ability to exploit the Rhône corridor and establish commercial relations with the interior of France. Its location makes it a classic gateway community.

Full textAbstract:
When marine natural sciences began to be the concern of most European scientists, in the middle of the 19th century, Marseille, in southern France, was no exception. The creation, ca. 150 years ago, of the first Zoology Laboratory of the Faculty of Sciences of Marseille took place in 1868. Under the leadership of Antoine-Fortuné Marion, it soon led to the creation of the Station Marine d’Endoume (SME) in 1889. Marion’s pioneering work survived both world wars and was then taken to another dimension by Jean-Marie Pérès, head of the marine station from 1948 to 1983. This institution is still alive to date. We here inventoried all the taxa described by SME scientists (1870 to 2021) and arranged them in a public database. Three main periods of activity at the SME are described, as well as the focus made through time to different groups of taxa, selected ecosystems, or biogeographic areas. Through many examples, it was possible to document how these naturalistic, taxonomic descriptions contributed to a broader scientific knowledge within this period. Finally, we discussed trends in taxonomic and naturalistic research, based on the SME experience.

Cette recherche propose d’analyser comment Marseille a été filmée, à travers un corpus de films qui y ont été tournés entre 1921 et 2011, dans une double perspective combinant l’approche socio-historique et l’approche esthétique des images cinématographiques. Le temps long (presqu’un siècle) permet d’analyser depuis des films de fictions, des documentaires et des productions télévisuelles, les processus historiques et les constructions mémorielles propres à Marseille. Focaliser l’attention sur ce qui échappe au premier regard, les arrières plans, les détails, ouvre à une recherche qui étudie les rapports entre ville, cinéma, histoire et mémoireThis research proposes to analyse Marseille filmed, through a corpus of films that have been shot from 1921 to 2011, on a dual viewpoint combining the socio-historical and the aesthetic perspectives to moving images.This vast time frame (which spans almost a century) allows an analysis of the historical processes and memory constructions shaping the city of Marseille, based on films of fiction, documentaries and télévision productions. Focusing the attention on what is not visible at the first sight, the backgrounds, the details, opens to a research that studies the relationships between the city, cinema, history and memory

Full textAbstract:
À partir de deux opérations d’agrandissement de ville au XVIIe siècle (Aix en 1646, Marseille en 1666), cette recherche vise à comprendre les modalités concrètes de production de l’espace urbain sous l’Ancien Régime, à la fois au plan humain et matériel. Cette étude débute au ras du sol, à l’échelle la plus fine de la matérialité urbaine, à savoir le parcellaire. À partir d’une réflexion croisée autour des droits du sols et du marche de l’immobilier, l’enjeu ici est de mieux comprendre le poids des structures et des mécanismes juridiques privés dans les processus de fabrique de la ville. Changeant d’échelle d’analyse, un ensemble d’interrogations liées au domaine de l'économie du bâtiment permet de mettre en évidence les modalités économiques, sociales et juridiques qui entourent les chantiers de la construction. Le but ici est à la fois de dégager les règles cadrant l'activité constructive, et de déterminer les contours de la pratique des individus dans ce domaine. Cet axe induit une réflexion autour de la structuration à la fin du XVIIe siècle d’un ordre public constructif. Enfin, cette recherche aborde dans un troisième temps l’espace urbain dans son ensemble le plus vaste, à la fois sur le plan matériel et administratif. À partir des cadres politiques et institutionnels sollicités et déployés pour mener à bien ces opérations, c’est la question de l’intégration et de la gestion de ces nouveaux espaces à l'ordre urbain existant qui nous préoccupeFrom two city expansion operations in the seventeenth century (Aix in 1646, Marseille in 1666), this research aims to understand the practical arrangements for production of urban space under the old regime, both in human terms and equipment.This study begins at ground level at the finest scale of urban materiality, the plot. From a cross-reflection on the rights of the land and property market, the challenge here is to understand the weight of structures and private legal mechanisms in urban process.Changing scale of analysis, a set of questions related to the building of the economy domain allows to highlight the economic, social and legal conditions surrounding the sites of construction. The goal here is both to identify the rules framing constructive activity and to determine the contours of the practice of individuals in this area. This axis induces a reflection on the structuration of a constructive public order at the end of the seventeenth century.Finally, this research addresses urban space in its larger whole, both hardware and administratively. From the institutional and public frameworks to carry out these operations, the issue of integration and management of these new spaces to the existing urban order came up

Full textAbstract:
Jusqu’en 1481, Marseille fait partie d’un Etat indépendant, le comté de Provence et en est la plus grande ville sans en être toutefois la capitale. Or, en 1481, le dernier comte de Provence meurt sans héritier et il lègue l’ensemble de ses territoires au roi de France, Louis XI. Cependant, en Provence, les structures et pratiques politiques sont différentes du royaume de France, et Marseille appartient à un espace politico-culturel méditerranéen où la vie politique des villes est marquée par le modèle de la commune, également présent en Italie du nord et du centre. L’objectif de cette thèse est d’observer le passage d’un espace politico-culturel marqué par l’héritage des comtes de Provence et des cadres politiques de la commune à un espace politico-culturel dominé par le roi de France, où la relation entre le souverain et les villes s’inscrit dans le cadre de la « bonne ville ». Pour mener à bien ce travail, nous avons choisi de nous intéresser au conseil de ville, qui est la pièce maîtresse du pouvoir municipal, et à ses membres, afin d’observer les mutations introduites par ce transfert de souveraineté. Nous avons décidé de voir ces mutations en ce qui concerne la culture et l’identité du groupe dirigeant de la ville afin de s'inscrire dans une histoire culturelle du pouvoir municipal. Toute ville peut se définir comme un système politique où différents pouvoirs coexistent et se réajustent en permanence les uns par rapport aux autres au gré des événements et des changements qui peuvent surgir. La première partie examine les réajustements aux XIVe et XVe siècles à Marseille, qui permettent au pouvoir municipal de devenir dominant à Marseille face aux autres pouvoirs sous le règne de René Ier d’Anjou (1434-1480). La deuxième partie étudie les hommes à le tête du conseil de ville, les fondements de leur pouvoir et leurs modifications autour du rattachement de 1481. Enfin, la dernière partie examine les changements de culture et d’identité du groupe introduits par le transfert de souveraineté et les nouvelles ambitions en Méditerranée du groupe dirigeant, qui jettent les bases d’une véritable thalassocratie qui s’épanouira au XVIIe siècleUntil 1481, Marseilles is a part of an independant state, the county of Provence and it’s the biggest city, even if it’s not the capital. But, in 1481, the last count of Provence died without a son and he gives in his testament all his goods and territories to the king of France Louis XI. After that, Marseilles, like the rest of the former county is integrated in the French royal domain. But, in Provence the cultural and political structures and practices are different from the kingdom of France, and Marseilles belongs to a politico-cultural space where the political life is influenced by the model of “commune”, we can also see in the north of Italy. My aim in this thesis is to study the mobility between a politico-cultural space influences by the counts of Provence and the political structures and culture of the “commune” to a politico-cultural space dominated by the king of France thanks to a structure called “bonne ville”. I decided to study the council of the city which is the main structure of the municipal power and the leaders who are in this council in order to see the modifications after 1481 about the culture and the identity of this ruling class. I propose with this thesis an essay of cultural history of the municipal power. Each city is a political system, where different powers coexist. Those powers move and fix themselves towards the other ones. In the 1st part, I study how the municipal power becomes the most important one in Marseilles during the reign of René the 1st of Anjou. Then, in the second part, I study the leaders of the council, the foundations of their power and the modifications after 1481. Finally, in the 3rd part, I study the new ambitions of the leaders of Marseilles which lead in the 17th century to build a real thalassocracy in the Mediterranean world
Fino al 1481, Marsiglia è la città più grande della contea di Provenza, uno stato indipendente, pur senza esserne la capitale. In quell’anno, l'ultimo conte di Provenza muore senza eredi e dona la sua contea al re di Francia, Luigi XI. Le strutture e le pratiche politiche della Provenza sono però molto diverse rispetto a quelle del regno di Francia: Marsiglia fa parte di uno spazio politico-culturale del Mediterraneo, dove la vita politica urbana è segnata da un modello comunale del tutto simile a quello che si riscontra nelle città dell'Italia centro-settentrionale. L’obiettivo di questa tesi è di studiare il passaggio di questo spazio politico-culturale, segnato dall’eredità angioina e da un governo di tipo comunale, a quello dominato dal re di Francia, nel quale la relazione tra il sovrano e le città è costruita attorno al modello della "bonne ville". Per studiare questo tema, si è scelto di concentrarsi sul consiglio della città di Marsiglia, l'istituzione simbolo del potere municipale, e sugli uomini che lo componevano, al fine di apprezzare le mutazioni dovute al cambiamento di sovranità avvenute al suo interno. L’intento è di analizzare i cambiamenti legati alla cultura e all’identità della classe dirigente, nell’ottica di una storia culturale del potere municipale. Tutte le città possono definirsi come un sistema politico all’interno del quale si trovano a coesistere diversi poteri, che si relazionano fra loro in base agli avvenimenti e ai cambiamenti interni ed esterni alla città stessa. La prima parte della tesi si concentra sul processo mediante il quale il potere municipale ha preso il sopravvento a Marsiglia sotto il regno di Renato I (1434-1480). Nella seconda, invece, si analizzano gli uomini che formano il consiglio della città, l’origine del loro potere e le mutazioni che avvengono dopo il 1481. Infine, l’ultima parte ha per oggetto le trasformazioni nell’identità e nella cultura del gruppo dirigente cittadino in seguito al cambiamento di sovranità, evento che getterà le basi della talassocrazia marsigliese del XVII secolo

Full textAbstract:
Les Capitulations accordées par la Porte en 1740 fixent un cadre favorable pour le commerce français au Levant. Cependant, le XVIIIe siècle est celui de sa régression. Smyrne, qui s'impose alors comme la première Échelle ottomane, offre un point d'observation idoine pour comprendre cette crise où se mêlent confusément la dégradation des changes et celle des draps, l'article le plus exporté. Pourtant, la maison marseillaise Roux établit une commandite à Smyrne en 1759 après avoir eu recours à des tiers. Grâce aux apports de la sociologie économique, notre étude montre que le contexte levantin, sujet aux révolutions de toute sorte, n'offre pas toutes les aménités escomptées. La structure sociale légalement induite, et dominée par les Marseillais, fonctionne selon une prudence encastrée qui assimile les régisseurs à des subalternes suspects d'opportunisme. Une telle organisation entrave la saisie des occasions offertes par le marché oriental. Alors que la Méditerranée devient un espace périphérique du commerce mondial, les Roux échouent à valoriser leur implantation levantine malgré l'étendue de leurs réseaux. La domination marseillaise de la draperie languedocienne contribue en fait à sa précarisation et à la baisse de sa qualité. Dès la fin de la guerre de Sept Ans, ces exportations entrent dans une phase dépressive que l'inertie des pratiques négociantes ne fait qu'entretenir. Celles-ci expliquent également l'absence de diversification. Ainsi, les défauts réticulaires se combinent à la complexité du marché levantin, aux troubles géopolitiques du XVIIIe siècle et à la transition hégémonique au profit des Anglais pour expliquer la crise du commerce marseillais levantinThe capitulations granted by the Porte in 1740 set a favourable framework for French trade in Levant. However, the 18th century means decline for it. Smyrna, which emerged at that time as the first Ottoman échelle, offered a fitting place to observe and to understand this crisis stemming from the debasement of exchange rates and woolen clothes, the most exported articles. And yet, the Roux company from Marseilles established a firm in Smyrna in 1759 after turning to outsiders. Thanks to the contributions of economic sociology, this research shows that the Levantine context, prone to revolutions of all kinds, didn't offer all the expected amenities. The social structure legally enforced and dominated by the merchants of Marseilles worked in accordance to embedded cautiousness which likened the expatriated partners to potentially opportunist subordinates. Such an organization hampered their activity in the Eastern market. Whereas the Mediterranean became an outlying space for world trade, the Roux failed to develop their Levantine firm despite the diversity of their networks. The domination of Marseilles over the clothing industry in Languedoc contributed, in fact, to its jeopardizing and the quality decline of its products. At the end of the Seven Years' War, these exportations entered in a declining stage maintained by the inertia of the merchants' practices which also account for the lack of diversification. Thus, network defects combine with the complexity of the Levantine market, the geopolitical troubles of the 18th century and the transition to English hegemony to explain the crisis of the Levantine trade from Marseilles

Partant d’un questionnement sur la réputation criminelle de Marseille au XXe siècle, on a cherché à retracer la genèse du Milieu marseillais, imaginaire criminel local qui s’impose dans la deuxième moitié des années Trente. On observe, sur la longue durée, à l’aide de sources imprimées, l’émergence et la mise en relation de l’imaginaire de Marseille et de celui du Milieu. Les sources judiciaires et policières permettent de suivre l’évolution des activités criminelles, les transformations du vol et l’émergence des trafics à la fin du XIXe siècle, ainsi que l’avènement d’un crime organisé qui montre, dans les années Trente, quelques trafiquants enrichis deviennent des agents électoraux de certains élus locaux pour assurer leur impunitéThe starting point of this study is the criminal reputation of Marseilles - French “Chicago” - throughout the XXth century. I worked on the history of the “Milieu marseillais”, that is on national and local representations of criminals since the beginning of the XIXth century. Justice and police materials are also used, in order to follow the arising of real trafics (prostitution, drugs), and the changes of theft practices. At the end of the 1930s, some nouveau riche traffickers become campaign aides for local politicians, thus ensuring impunity. Is this the time for French organized crime ?

Des le xixe siecle, la presence du docker derange sur les quais marseillais ; il concurrence le protefaix et bouleverse les traditions. Tres vite son image est negative dans la societe marseillaise et la diversite ethnique accentue encore ce processus. L'instabilite, la precarite et l'absence de statut sont les specificites des ouvriers des quais de la cite phoceenne. L'histoire du docker est celle d'un milieu populaire plutot defavorise et en voie d'enracinement dans les annees 1920. Non encadres, sans garantie, ils se lancent tres tot dans la combativite. Ils representent a marseille un enjeu economique, social et politique. Economique quand les arrets de travail ont pour corollaire la baisse du trafic portuaire, social en raison du role du syndicat et de l'influence qu'ils peuvent avoir sur les ouvriers de la ville et sur les dockers des autres ports. Et enfin l'enjeu politique est l'aspect dominant des dockers marseillais dans l'entre-deux-guerres. Marseille a une vie politique mouvementee et cette agitation envahit les quais : c'est l'affrontement entre les forces de gauche et les sabianistes a travers les dockers. Puis les communistes parviennent a dominer les quais a partir de 1935 et le syndicat des dockers devient puissant. Cette force leur permet d'obtenir des acquis de 1935 a 1939 et la voie vers le statut se dessine. Le docker a un role strategique dans l'economie et le gouvernement decide de lui accorder un statut pendant la seconde guerre mondiale pour que le trafic reprenne des la fin des hostilites. La loi du 28 juin 1941 donne au docker un statut mais l'enferme dans une corporation : c'est un retour au xixe siecle avec la societe des portefaixSince the 19th century dockers working on the marseilles docks have been troublesome. They started competing with the porters and consequently traditions were turned upside town. They were quickly negatively perceived by the town society and the various communities made it even worse. Instability, precarity and the lack of definite status were the characteristics of the people working on the marseilles docks. The history of dockers comes along with that of a fairly deprived lower class that was gradually settling in the twenties. Unsupervised without any guarantee they started fighting for their rights very early. In marseilles they soon became a social political and economical stake : an economical one when strikes entailed a decrease in the port traffic, a social one because of their possible influence on the other town workers and the dockers of other harbours. And most of all their political role prevailed on the period spanning between the two world wars. In those days marseilles had a rather agitated political life and this unrest pervaded the docks : through the dockers it is the struggle between the left wing forces and the sabianists which took place. From 1935 the communists succeeded in ruling over the docks and their trade-union became most powerful. This strength allowed the dockers to gain advantages from 1936 to 1939 and the idea of a status became apparent. The dockers had a strategic role to play in the economy and the government decided to grant them a status during world war ii so that the port activities should start again as soon as the conflict was over. The law, passed on the 28 june 1941, gave the dockers a status but at the same time it confined them in a corporation : it is a return to the 19th century porter's society

Malgre son echec final, l'industrie marseillaise de la metallurgie et de la construction mecanique est l'exemple le plus acheve de succes mediterraneens bases sur la combinaison d'ouvertures et de dynamismes locauxMarseilles is a symbol of a mediterranean town reached by steam and iron during the 19th century. Advanced industry, metallurgy and mechanical engineering, has found its place and has managed to become a basic of the town's economic success story. Marseilles' industry, atypic and varied proves different from that of the european north-west. Cast iron making has remained a low-key activity. Other sectors have taken prominence : machine making, second melting industry and non ferrous metals. The history of that field, underrated for too long, takes the opposite view to the factors that are supposed to account for mediterranean europe's economic lag. There has been no shortage of men, capital, technological knowledge and markets. Quite like barcelona, genoa and piraeus, marseilles is entirely part of the 19th century industrial landscape. In spite of its final failure, the metallurgy and mechanical engineering of marseilles is the most accomplished of the mediterranean success combining openness and local dynamism

MARSEILLE ET MADAGASCAR, 1840-1976 : UN TERRITOIRE OUTRE-MER HOMOGENE, UNE PERIODE SUFFISAMMENT LONGUE POUR APPREHENDER UN PHENOMENE MAJEUR DANS L'HISTOIRE CONTEMPORAINE DE L'ECONOMIE PHOCEENNE, CELUI DE LA COLONISATION. L'OBJET EST DONC DE MIEUX COMPRENDRE, A PARTIR D'UNE ETUDE DE CAS, LE ROLE JOUE PAR CE FACTEUR QUE BEAUCOUP ONT CONSIDERE COMME UN DES PRINCIPAUX ELEMENTS DE LA CROISSANCE DU PORT DE MARSEILLE AUX XIXEME ET XXEME SIECLES. POUR CELA, LA PROBLEMATIQUE PREND APPUI SUR LES MILIEUX D'AFFAIRES ET LES ENTREPRISES ; DEMARCHE ASCENDANTE - DES ACTEURS JUSQU'AU << MACRO-ECONOMIQUE >> - AVEC POUR PRINCIPALES INTERROGATIONS : COMMENT ONT-ILS ABORDE L'ESPACE MALGACHE ? A QUEL MOMENT Y ONT-ILS RENCONTRE LE FAIT COLONIAL - RENCONTRE PRECOCE OU TARDIVE ? QUELS FURENT LEURS PROGRAMMES ECONOMIQUES ET TROUVERENT-ILS UN APPUI FAVORABLE DANS LA COLONISATION POUR LE REALISER ? QUELLES ONT ETE LES RETOMBEES DE LEURS INITIATIVES OUTRE-MER NOTAMMENT POUR LE TISSU ECONOMIQUE MARSEILLAIS ? IL S'AGIT AINSI DE DISCERNER LES TENANTS ET ABOUTISSANTS D'UNE EXPANSION OUTRE-MER, DE METTRE EN RELIEF SES ARTICULATIONS VIS-A-VIS D'UNE ECONOMIE METROPOLITAINE, EN L'OCCURRENCE L'EVOLUTION CONJONCTURELLE ET STRUCTURELLE DU PORT PHOCEEN. AU TERME D'UNE ANALYSE D'OU SE DISTINGUENT PLUSIEURS PHASES (QUATRE GRANDES PERIODES AU TOTAL), ON DECOUVRE UNE REALITE QUELQUE PEU DIFFERENTE DE CELLE DECRITE PAR L'HISTORIOGRAPHIE TRADITIONNELLE. D'UNE PART, LES RAPPORTS ENTRE MARSEILLE ET LE FAIT COLONIAL NE SONT PAS AUSSI MONOLITHIQUES, AUSSI EVIDENTS QU'IL Y PARAIT. ON PEUT MEME SE DEMANDER SI L'ADHESION DES MILIEUX D'AFFAIRES A LA COLONISATION POLITIQUE NE FUT PAS DANS UNE CERTAINE MESURE UN EPIPHENOMENE. D'AUTRE PART, LEURS ACTIVITES AU SEIN DE L'ESPACE MALGACHE N'ONT PAS SEULEMENT REPOSE SUR LE SCHEMA CLASSIQUE D'UNE ECONOMIE IMPERIALE ; LA AUSSI, S'AFFIRME TRES TOT ET DURABLEMENT UNE PLURALITE QUE CE SOIT DANS LES FORMES DE LEURS INTERVENTIONS OU EN TERME DE RESEAUX COMMERCIAUX.

Full textAbstract:
La premiere partie de ce travail etudie l'histoire generale de l'ecole des beaux-arts de marseille depuis la creation de l'ecole de l'academie en 1752 jusqu'en 1914 et celle de la classe d'architecture en particulier, fondee en 1812, a partir du fonds d'archives conserve aux archives municipales de marseille (archives administratives et dessins de concours) : conditions reglementaires et financieres, organisation et contenu des cours en fonction de l'action des professeurs successifs. L'evolution de la classe d'architecture trouve son aboutissement dans la creation de l'ecole regionale d'architecture en 1905. La deuxieme partie souligne l'evolution historique de la classe d'architecture par l'analyse sociologique et statistique de la population des eleves a travers plusieurs criteres (age, origine geographique, origine sociale, duree et reussite dans les etudes, orientation professionnelle). Cela permet de suivre la transformation du role de la classe d'architecture, destinee au depart a former des artisans au dessin de l'ornement puis recentree sur la formation des architectes. Nous avons complete cette analyse en suivant les eleves dans leurs etudes a l'ecole des beaux-arts de paris, selon les memes criteres. La troisieme partie interroge la carriere des eleves sur leur activite en architecture privee, a partir des sources ecrites disponibles (publications et biographies) et de l'inventaire des immeubles signes du centre-ville, la question du statut de l'architecte par rapport a celui de l'entrepreneur restant actuelle tout au long du siecle. La production architecturaledu xixe siecle a marseille est liee a l'action des operateurs prives et publics dans la transformation de la ville. Trois periodes sont ainsi determinees : 1800-1855 (intervention des speculateurs prives et architecture traditionnelle), 1855-1865 (intervention des pouvoirs publics et influence de l'haussmannisation) et 1865-1914 (urbanisme acheve et architecture nationale).

Full textAbstract:
Marseille, France’s second largest city, was one of the two European ‘capitals of culture’ in 2013. The MuCEM, a museum dedicated to the idea of ‘The Mediterranean’ and its diverse cultures, opened on 7 June 2013 as one of the centrepiece’s of Marseille’s capital of culture stint. One of the MuCEM’s two inaugural temporary exhibitions was “Au Bazar du Genre” (at the Gender Bazaar). It was dedicated to exploring the recent history of feminist—and LGBT—challenges to the order of male domination in the twenty-one countries that surround the Mediterranean Sea. The expression ‘bazar’ is ambiguous in French. It calls up a mythified popular culture of the Mediterranean at the same time as it refers, in familiar parlance, to a mess or an assemblage of paraphernalia. This double entendre is surely deliberate, as ‘messing with gender’ is an explicit brief of the exhibition. At the same time, the choice of title leaves the curators of the exhibition open to the critique of bittiness. This chapter discusses these various facets of the exhibition and reactions to it in France, as an example of a certain institutionalisation of feminist memory that has both salutary and problematic aspects.

Full textAbstract:
Luke Healey writes that within the globalized image economy that circulates around soccer in the 21st century, a number of individuals are singularly visible; one of these is the former French national captain Zidane. As a highly prominent and successful working-class French Maghrebian from the banlieue of Marseille, Zidane occupies a delicate position within French cultural discourse, and his importance with regard to France’s sporting, colonial and cultural history has occasioned appearances in numerous artistic depictions. This essay focuses in particular on Douglas Gordon and Philippe Parreno’s film, Zidane, un portrait du 21e siècle; Jean-Philippe Toussaint’s short literary essay, La Mélancolie de Zidane; and Anne Delbée’s novella, La 107e Minute. In addition, it considers Adel Abdessemed’s monumental bronze sculpture Coup de Tête. Each of these projects, Healey argues, attempts to negotiate the skeins of discourse that accompany ‘Zizou’ wherever he goes, in order to offer a perspective of their subject that differs substantially from the on-dit. In presenting this argument, Healey engages with Pierre Bourdieu’s conception of the aesthetic regime of high culture advanced in La Distinction, thus illustrating the diverse ways in which these four works enact this rejection in terms of cultural politics.
