Tessier, Alexandre. "Le Grand Hôtel, 110 ans d'hôtellerie parisienne, 1862-1972." Thesis, Tours, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009TOUR2012/document.
Full textBuilt in the middle of the Opéra district, creator with the Grand Hôtel du Louvre of the great contemporary hotel trade in France, the Grand Hôtel, born in 1862, insert in the French main town a concept spread out in the biggest town around the world. This new concept is still developing and growing nowadays. The most important defiance which the Grand Hôtel should respond is to strengthen its level between the greatest Paris’ hotels. From that angle, the change was important because, departing to a leader role, it had to fight against new competitors that relegate easily the Grand Hôtel to an inferior level. The leading men, from the brothers Pereire, “hotel’s creators”, to a family dynasty, that have an extraodinary history, passing to high finance men, had to modifie the firm strategy to fit the Grand Hôtel to an everyday new market and to answer the new customers needs. Moreover, all accross the Grand Hôtel life we can find important French history moments and personages with a fabulous destiny like brothers Pereire or Arthur and André Millon
Marcoult, Laurence. "L'hospitalité en observation : les grands hôpitaux parisiens au XVIIIe siècle hôtel-Dieu, Hôpital Général." Paris, EHESS, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016EHES0130.
Full textThe Paris hotel-Dieu and Hopital General, in the XVIIIth century, daily take care of 10 to 1500* people. The Hopital General, comprising the houses of Bicetre, La Salpetriere, La Pitie, has a doubl role of housing the poor and confining the beggars, this confinement being limited : most are seen a deserving poor. Confinement is essentially for prisoners sent by administrative, police or justic order. Children, mostly from the Foundling Hospital, the elderly, women, make the greatest part o its population. The hotel-Dieu has a medical organization with qualified personnel, giving care wit high seasonal variations. He houses a large proportion of patients coming from the Hopital General. Financing hospitals is a challenge : their economy has to work at best when circumstances are bad The Hopital General does not make profit from labour as expected when it was founded except for few luxury products ; neither can he count on charity. Tax revenues especially from wine and fron entertainment (theaters, opera. . . ) becomes crucial and allows regular income. These hospital are gigantic economic structures, requiring large amounts of cereals, wood, wine, meat, fabric. . . Supplying is a major concern of administrations. Organized according to a similar model but not with the same efficiency (the hotel-Dieu being more rigorous), they must insure continuity under any condition. Hospitals fulfill their social, medical or punishing role, and are in great demand by population

Full textMonarchical french painted ceilings realized between the end of the "Fronde" (1653) and the death of Colbert (1683) are numerous, from the Louvre apartments to the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles. From a formal point of view, there is a triple unification: structural, iconographical and ornamental, with a hierarchy of the subjects and a submission of the ornaments to the themes of the decorations. All programs are founded on metaphor: either enigmatic, when the beholder has an active part to play, or emblematic, when the meaning is given precisely by a text. The meaning remains always part of a system, where the supremacy of the king is related to the benefits the subjects get from it. The careful composing of the iconographical programs implies that the meaning is part of the "esthetic significance" i. E. , that is the part the authors wanted the beholder to perceive on an esthetic level
Thinard-Morel, Janine. "Nourrir et soigner les malades de l'Hôtel-Dieu de Paris à l'époque moderne." Thesis, Paris 4, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016PA040023.
Full textHow were the sick of the Hôtel-Dieu de Paris fed in modern times? What role did food play in their care? Where and how did the Hôtel-Dieu get supplies? What were its means? These are the principal questions that this thesis attempts to answer, using the deliberations of the Bureau and, when they still exist, the accounts (income and expenditure) of the Hôtel-Dieu. Mainly consisting of bread, meat and wine, but also broths for the seriously ill persons, the portions given to patients are copious, for the patient to the Hôtel-Dieu must be treated well and a good diet is the first treatment. The essentials do not include vegetables and fruits. It is difficult to know which amount of the latter was consumed. In times of scarcity (war, disaster, famine) the portions of bread, meat and wine are adjusted to the possibilities of supplying. The Hôtel-Dieu is making every effort to ensure its supplying, first relying on its farms and vineyards, then increasingly on the market. If a proper diet is the guarantee of a good health, the doctors at the Hôtel-Dieu waited until the eve of the French Revolution to consider that their prescriptions were to cover not only medicines but also diet. This little "revolution" did not occur without causing the reaction of nuns accustomed to controlling the patients’ diet

Adamczak, Alicia. "De Paris à Rome : Jean-Baptiste Théodon (1645-1713) et la sculpture française après Bernin." Thesis, Paris 4, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009PA040269.
Full textJean-Baptiste Théodon (1645-1713) was a French sculptor of the reign of Louis XIV who belonged both to the French and Italian schools of sculpture of the Seventeenth-Century. In the 1670’s during his training at the ‘Manufacture des Gobelins’ he worked under the supervision of Charles Le Brun and met the minister Jean-Baptiste Colbert. In 1677 he joined the French Academy in Rome where he carved garden sculptures for royal estates and for his protector Colbert. Early in his Roman carrier he was made member of the Academy of St Luke and member of the Congregazione dei Virtuosi al Pantheon where he met Bernini, the architect Carlo Fontana and the painter Carlo Maratta. Appreciated by the Pope Innocent XII he obtained several commissions at Saint-Peter’s (Baptismal chapel, Monument to Christine of Sweden) and at the same time he worked for the Jesuits at the Sant’Ignazio chapel at the Gesù. As one of the most significant sculptors of the end of the Roman Seicento he dedicated his last years in Rome to the pope Clement XI and the papal basilica before his return to Paris in 1705 where he worked for the Sun King and the ‘Maisons’ of Meudon and Marly. With the same maestria Jean-Baptiste Théodon carved allegories for Colbert, mythological and historical figures for Louis XIV, funeral sculptures and portrait for Christine of Sweden as well as works of art for Roman churches. The Ph.D. dissertation consists of a study of the career of the sculptor with an analysis of his artistic manner and its evolution from Paris to Rome. In addition the thesis includes the complete ‘catalogue raisonné’ of his works, sculptures and drawings

Barreau, Joëlle. "Être architecte au XVIIe siècle : Libéral Bruand, architecte et ingénieur du roi." Paris 4, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2003PA040271.
Full textLibéral Bruand (1631-1697) was concurrently an architect, a Royal Engineer, and one of the first members of the Royal Academy of Architecture. His great work was the Hôtel royal des Invalides that he built from 1671 to 1676. In addition, he built houses and hôtels intended for a wealthy clientele (aristocrats and financiers). He participated in creating the typology of the "maison de maître" by introducing technical and distributive innovations in hôtels in the years from 1630 to 1650. His art is characterized by a close respect of the program, clarity in planning, and sober ornamentation. This study is the first monograph dedicated to an architect who is representative of the second half of the seventeenth century and who had all the professional qualifications of the builder's milieu of his day. It is founded on abundant source material and unpublished archives, in particular the notarial records of the Minutier central des notaires (Archives nationales, Paris). Beyond the systematic study of the fourteen works that were previously credited to the architect, this research has made it possible to credit him with an additional twenty-three works and to deattribute four

Full textThis thesis shows the role of l’Hôtel Lambert, political party led by Prince A. J. Czartoryski from Paris, and his agency, founded by Michał Czaykowski, in Constantinople, in the struggle for Poland’s freedom. Through the comparison of the political actions taken by these two characters from France and the Ottoman Empire in the first half of the 19th century, emerges the analysis of the modus operandi of l’Hôtel Lambert, guided by the hope of reconquering independence of the oppressed homeland and to preserve “la polonité” abroad. This research is complemented by the study of the reception policy of the Sublime Porte, vis-à-vis the refugees of the Hungarian Revolution who seek asylum on the Ottoman territory, in which the conversion to Islam of some of these exiles holds an important place. Moreover, the analysis of the cultural transfer in the two host countries and of the socio-economic situation of the Polish refugees in the Ottoman Empire gives an in-depth view of the construction of the interactions of these exiles in their new societies. Another aspect of this research is centered on the creation of the Polish colony in the Ottoman Empire, social laboratory of “la polonité” in exile
Deias, Dalia. "Inventer l'Observatoire : sciences & politiques sous Giovanni Domenico Cassini (1625-1712)." Thesis, Paris, EHESS, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020EHES0165.
Full textIn 1667, the construction of the Observatoire de Paris began. From the very beginning, it was a project that represented a breakthrough in the Europe of knowledge. It was conceived as a magnificent palace set in a vast park in the middle of other lighter constructions. Ideally, the savants of the new Académie des sciences, founded in a single act, will be able to stay, meet and find all the facilities to engage in scholarly practice. For the king, it is above all a question of developing astronomical and geographical knowledge: the Observatoire is the reservoir of this crucial expertise and the symbol of its power and influence.At the crossroads of the science science, the history of astronomical observation practices and the studies on correspondence in the classical age, the aim of this thesis is to return to the history of the Observatoire, questioning once again the precise outlines of the initial project and the methods of its implementation in the Grand Siècle, which corresponds to the first decades of its existence. Revisiting the classic works of historians of science, our study is structured around a considerable number of letters and unpublished notes by Giovanni Domenico Cassini and his correspondents. Professor of astronomy in Bologna until 1669, royal astronomer and first courtier of Louis XIV thereafter, Cassini was called to France to give an opinion on the building under construction. He lived and worked there throughout the Great Century: his manuscripts constitute a particularly rich source for studying this institution, questioning the fundamental choices concerning it and following the evolution of its purpose.From this examination, we conclude that although other celestial observation sites have existed before, Cassini invented a new kind of organisation of pratique savante. Functioning without explicit rules, the Observatoire nevertheless greatly innovates in the organisation of collective work within an establishment dedicated to astronomical practice and in the constitution of networks of observers around the world working in a coordinated manner in pursuit of a common project at the service of the monarchy. In the thesis we show that the savant organises the Observatory around a concept that comes from his work on the Italian meridians, the esattezza of measurements and the gap between Earth and Sky. The techniques of the Observatoire will spread thanks to him: the networks of sociability of the Italian will condition the daily functioning of the establishment and the circulation of knowledge in the city and throughout the world
Chen, Jie. "Le théâtre et le pouvoir au XVIIe siècle : le patronage en question." Thesis, Paris 4, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015PA040076/document.
Full textWe studied in this work the concrete ways in which are expressed the relations between the power and the theater in the seventeenth century, when this art was already associated with the principle of mass distribution which allows it to flourish regardless of patronage. As the theater is both a practice and a literature, our investigation was conducted in two stages. We are primarily interested in professional actors, most of whom have formed theatre troops bearing the name of a powerful man. This reality seems a priori obvious is nevertheless revealing. The history of the Royal troupe of Hôtel de Bourgogne is a prime example. Other smaller companies maintain also close relations with their protectors. This is for example the case of the theater troop of Great Condé that we studied. But most of the time, these touring companies are not close to their patrons. Rather, they are in contact with other bodies of power, especially the municipal power. Thus the first part of our work ends with two case studies on Dijon and Brussels, two favorite destinations of theater troops. After studying the actors, our investigation continues by focusing on playwrights. The question of relations between playwrights and patrons is part of a vast subject that is the literary patronage in general. We tried to illustrate it through the example of the patronage of Richelieu, preceded by a preliminary inquiry into the question of dedication who served our whole second part
Guigo, Michèle. "L'autre Louvre : la société du Louvre (1855-1939)." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Sorbonne université, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019SORUL145.
Full textThe Grands Magasins du Louvre was born in 1855 in the shadow of the Grand Hôtel du Louvre, in an expanding area following the works of Haussmann, only two years after the creation of the Bon Marché. Their creation is strongly linked to the project and the network of the Pereire brothers who wish to develop trade and luxury tourism in Paris. Louvre shops are quickly becoming one of the leading department stores, and even the most important by turnover in the 1870s and 1880s, as well as occupied space. Indeed, at first locked by the hotel, the store led by its two managers Chauchard and Hériot will engulf all the surrounding shops, as well as the hotel in 1879. They adopt the slogan of "the largest stores in the world". This first foot in the hotel industry will encourage its leaders to continue their expansion in this area by operating three additional hotels, the Terminus Saint-Lazare, the hotel d'Orsay and Crillon. The Grands Magasins du Louvre will therefore be the only department store to have invested in a sector other than commerce to diversify its activities. At the end of the nineteenth century, the store seems to know its heyday extending its influence on the national territory and abroad and sourcing goods from around the world. But the First World War and especially the economic crisis of the 1930s brought him a hard blow which he will not recover. In 1939 it first filed the balance sheet, before the closure was interrupted by the war. It will continue to survive after the Second World War, before finally disappearing in 1974

Full textIn an unexpected manner, and in a short time, Rene de Longueil inherited to the family seigneury of Maisons in 1629 and the heritage of his wife’s family in 1630 which he took advantage by his cleverness. Ever since Rene de Longueil undertook the construction of a new chateau, trusted François Mansart and Jacques Sarrazin’s team, and celebrated as one of the most beautiful residence in France. But he saw the finishing of the project only ten years before his death: Maisons was an endless building site, done one stage at a time. In Paris, he lived at rue de Béthisy, in a town house, inherited from Nicolas Chevalier, his uncle in-law. His wife, Madeleine, dead too early, stays a mysterious person who inspired the decoration of the new chateau. He had one’s heart set on extending the seigneury with the purchase of fief which constituted a huge territory in le Pincerais, surrounding nearly the crown estate of Saint-Germain. Descendant of a noble family, he baught the charges of la Cour des Aides and Président à mortier. During the Fronde, he played an important role as an agent between the Parlment and the Regency. He had the honour of serving the king as captain of his chateau in Versailles and Saint-Germain, before he’s promoted Superintendent of Finances in 1650. He lived in exile in Normandy a few years. Back in favour, he could assent to rank of Marquis in 1658 and welcoming the king and the Court. His places of residence in Maisons and Bethisy contained sumptuous and precious furniture, as well as many works of art. Man with a lot of taste and moving with the times, he took an interest in tapestries work, chinas, and orange trees. The poets celebrated the gardens of Maisons. Excellence became his rule employing the best craftmens and the best servants. Powerful, rich and famous man, he transferred a considerable heritage and his title of Marquis to his descendants
Rocher, Yves-Marie. "Le musée de l’Armée et ses collections sous la Troisième République." Thesis, Sorbonne université, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018SORUL163.
Full textThe official creation of the French Army Museum in the Hotel des Invalides occured in 1905, gathering two pre-existent establishments, the Army historic museum and the artillery museum. In so doing it is two conceptions of the collections of military objects that group together under the same administration. One was a museum of techniques, eager to retranscribe the evolutions of the armament over time, the other one tried to transmit to the visitor a feeling of timeless greatness of the french nation symbolized by its Army. This double ancestry is going to be the core of questionings on the museography and the choices relative to the collection during all the life of the establishment. The place of the memory is going to be a permanent stake. The first stages of implementation stopped with the Great War, which saw at the same time the museum slowing down its activity and knowing a big influx with the exhibition of trophies and paintings realized on the battlefield. This episode, so peculiar in the life of the establishment, is going to impulse the creation of new rooms from 1915 onward. Then the Army museum had the ambition to be a key place of the memory of the first world conflict. However this will had to cope with two major difficulties. First, the war ministry didn’t provide enough fees and furthermore the expression of these remembrances after 1918 left the Invalides for other places. In 1928, while the museum obtained its financial autonomy, all the display were changed in a way close to the private collections. Separating the parts dedicated to the memory of those showing the collection, the establishment gave itself a policy which continued beyond the second world conflict
