Abstract:
Taking as a case study the Theatre-Italien, here considered both as a particular theatrical practice and as a specific stage in Paris---one of the most popular at the time---this dissertation asks what role this theatre played in the novel competition of discourses which characterized political culture in the era of Revolutions. All too often, historians have overestimated print culture as the main medium through which discourses were produced in the eighteenth century, and this despite the fact that theatre played a fundamental role in the public life of this period.

Abstract:
The eighteenth century was a period ripe with challenges for hospitals in France. Denounced as ineffective, inefficient and even inhumane institutions, hospitals found themselves at the centre of a growing debate over the administration of health care and welfare. Although dismissing the hospital's traditional role as a refuge for the poor, the indigent and the sick, many reformers believed that this institution still could play a valuable social role. Thus, while contemporaries lashed out against the large, "abuse-ridden," hopitaux generaux and hotels-Dieu , small hospitals were seen i

This thesis analyses the simplification of fashion in the French "beau monde" at the end of the eighteenth century. It reveals that the simplified fashion of the 1770s and 1780s was the result of a new feeling for nature. New perceptions of the body led physicians to plead for a new fashion, more respectful of the natural characters of the body. On the aesthetic level, natural simplicity was meant to be the only way to recover original truth and energy. Moreover, anglomania, by way of sustained exchanges with England, contributed to the development of a simpler and more egalitarian fash

This master thesis deals in general with the effects of liberal revolutions in France, Spain, and Portugal at the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th century, to explain the changes in political systems in the Iberian Peninsula. For this, the definitions of streams of thought, ideas and concepts according to their historicity are being considered, in order to understand the meaning ascribed to them at the time. For that reason, the first chapter is about the change from absolutism to liberalism. The two concepts and streams of thought are explained and compared and the theoreti

Abstract:
Ce travail étudie une catégorie socio-professionnelle méconnue de l'époque moderne : les commissaires aux classes et ceux qui en faisaient fonction de 1668 à 1795. Il retrace l'évolution de cet office au cours de la période, en mettant au jour les modifications apportées par les différents secrétaires d'État : ceux-ci cherchent à mieux circonscrire les charges dévolues aux commissaires, s'appuyant sur les nombreux rapports, correspondances et mémoires rédigés dans les ports, en temps de guerre comme en temps de paix.

Abstract:
In 1793, Great Britain embarked on a war against Revolutionary France to reestablish a balance of power in Europe. Traditional assessments among historians consider British war planning at the ministerial level during the First Coalition to be incompetent and haphazard. This work reassesses decision making of the leading strategists in the British Cabinet in the development of a theater in the Mediterranean by examining political, diplomatic, and military influences. William Pitt the Younger and his controlling ministers pursued a conservative strategy in the Mediterranean, reliant on Allie

La France et l’Espagne, deux pays dominant le monde du XVIe siècle au XVIIIe siècle, sont comparées pour mettre en lumière les ressemblances et différences de l’impact culturel des femmes de l’époque. Si les hommes dominent dans la sphère publique, les femmes vont surmonter les épreuves et s’émanciper du foyer pour parvenir à montrer les talents de leur esprit.

Abstract:
Cette thèse entend montrer comment la naissance de la théorie du jeu théâtral au XVIIIe siècle contribue à la mise en cause du modèle mimétique classique au profit d'un nouveau modèle expressif. Considérant trois aires culturelles (la France, l'Angleterre et l'Allemagne), elle adopte une démarche chronologique, qui vise à souligner les changements dans la façon d’entendre le parallèle entre l'acteur, le peintre et l’orateur. Il apparaît ainsi que la théorie du jeu tire sa légitimité d'une réhabilitation du spectacle visuel, qui donne lieu à une esthétique du tableau scénique mettant en lumière

Cette thèse de doctorat propose une réflexion sur les phénomènes de copies en matière d’estampe à travers la production d’éditeurs-graveurs allemands de la seconde moitié du XVIIe siècle et de la première moitié du siècle suivant. Parmi les principaux acteurs du monde de la gravure en Allemagne après la fin de la guerre de Trente ans, certains, à commencer par la famille des Küsel à Augsbourg, se sont largement investis dans la réalisation et l’édition de copies gravées. Parmi les modèles utilisés par ces graveurs, l’estampe française du XVIIe siècle tient une place centrale. Remises dans leur

Abstract:
Le choix des vêtements représentés dans un portrait est rarement anodin, et ceci est particulièrement vrai à l’époque moderne. Les significations de nombreux attributs et costumes officiels ont été largement étudiées et commentées, mais qu’en est-il des portraits en négligé ? À partir des années 1670, le sens du terme « négligé » prend une nouvelle acception moins péjorative et qualifie des vêtements confortables, opposés à la grande parure. Il s’agit de déterminer les circonstances qui amènent à une revalorisation du point de vue sur le négligé et expliquer son succès dans le portrait. La que

Abstract:
À la fin du XVIIIe siècle, dans la vie musicale en Russie on constate un phénomène intéressant : l’essor du genre de l’opéra-comique français. En effet, pendant le dernier quart du XVIIIe siècle, ce genre est très présent sur certaines scènes–du théâtre populaire jusqu’au théâtre impérial. Ainsi, d’après différentes sources, entre 1764 et 1800 de nombreuses œuvres de compositeurs français, notamment celles de Duni, Dalayrac, Monsigny, Dezède, Philidor et Grétry y connaissent le succès. Pour quelle raison ce nouveau genre devient-il tellement populaire en Russie à cette époque ? Quellesprémisse
