- PublicationC'est moy que je peins, Figures de soi à l'automne de la RenaissanceQue voulut exprimer Montaigne lorsqu’il écrivit, à l’adresse du « lecteur » de l’automne de la Renaissance, « Car c’est moy que je peins » ? Pourquoi le motif de la peinture de soi s’imposa-t-il ainsi fermement à lui au tournant de 1580 ? Dans ce livre singulier, Marie-Clarté Lagrée réfléchit, en historienne, à l’imaginaire de la personne humaine, et donc à la construction culturelle de l’intériorité qui est au travail en amont et en aval des Essais, entre 1560 et 1630. Elle isole les différentes figures de soi qui ont cours et sont élaborées alors que le royaume de France bascule dans la division religieuse, et dévoile un glissement capital autour de 1580. La représentation dominante de la personne, qui prévalait, appuyée sur les Écritures, sur Aristote, sur Thomas d’Aquin, sur Hippocrate ou encore sur Galien, fut mise en crise : le cheminement de ce livre scrute un délitement subjectif insidieusement en œuvre dans les consciences, puis discerne les mouvements et les tensions de restructuration qui interviennent durant le premier tiers du XVIIe siècle. Marie-Clarté Lagrée invite le lecteur à entrer, comme par effraction, dans une appréhension troublée de soi, toujours mouvante et bien souvent inquiète, qui était celle des contemporains du temps des conflits religieux

64 - PublicationChurch and churches: Reflection on the questions of authority in the Christian communities in the 2nd centuryChurch and Churches: Ecclesial institutions in the 2nd centuryThe conviction of belonging to a single, Catholic, since universal, Church contri-buted to forging the Christian identity of small, dispersed communities, struggling against the incomprehension of their contemporaries, but cannot be disconnected from the demand within these same communities for their attachment to a local identity. Like the Empire, whose structures it adopted in great part, the Church drew its strength from its rootedness in the polis. As a consequence, being called Christian, throughout the 2nd century, was claimed by individuals from communities whose liturgical practices, clerical structures, even their canonical texts and profession of faith were different or outright in opposition. The history of the Church in the 2nd century is the history of this expansion of Christianity, the multiplication of these communities and the construction of a common identity. © 2010-2014 Cairn.info.

Including international contributions from a range of disciplines, the volume discusses the challenges that surround TRCs’ documentation. Considering the impact of the politicization of documentation, chapters also highlight the lack of political will to democratize information, the lack of dissemination and the preservation infrastructures that hinder access and its effective use and re-use. Arguing that TRCs’ documentation should be used to inform policy, improve governance and to promote justice, healing and reconciliation, the volume considers the ethical challenges involved in disseminating such information. Contributing authors argue that information professionals should play a major role in the planning for the TRCs’ information management infrastructures, if they are to facilitate access, effectively manage the generated documentation, deal with preservation of the compound records and promote the dissemination of the TRC findings. Documentation from Truth and Reconciliation Commissions demonstrates that TRCs’ documentation provides validation of human rights violations and that it helps to promote an understanding of the causes of conflict. As such, it will be essential reading for academics and students working in Archival Studies, Information Science, History, Transitional Justice, and Peace and Conflict Studies.24 - PublicationEnterprise Content Management system implementation: Insights from the National Library and Archives of UAE(2023)This study aims to elucidate the key elements that contribute to the successful execution of an Enterprise Content Management (ECM) system. The insights provided are based on the experiences of professionals at the National Library and Archives of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) during their ECM implementation. An interpretive philosophical model, along with qualitative methodologies such as interviews and focus group discussions were employed for data collection. The participants included professionals from the UAE's National Library and Archives who played a significant role in the ECM system's implementation. A thorough review of relevant literature was also carried out to validate and reinforce the viewpoints obtained from the interviewees and focus group participants. The study discovered that comprehensive business needs assessment, detailed research, system compatibility, clarity of policies, and effective change management are vital for the successful roll-out of an ECM system. However, it's worth noting that the proposed implementation model offered in this study may not be all-encompassing. The insights shared are limited to the experiences of one archival institution, and the literature consulted may not cover all existing viewpoints. Despite these limitations, this research provides essential guidance, particularly to national archival institutions contemplating the adoption of ECM systems. It underlines the importance of ECM in effectively managing an organization's structured and unstructured data and emphasizes the need for due diligence during ECM implementation. Further research is recommended to explore the advantages arising from the successful implementation of an ECM system.

Sa mère ayant intenté un procès au parlement de Paris pour qu’il reprît son rang d’aîné, le frère Joseph de Paris lui adressa une lettre. Il accusait ses parents de l’avoir fait naître dans le péché du monde et de le pousser à devenir « enfant de la guerre1 ». Une allusion à sa fonction de jeune noble d’épée et aux guerres de Religion qui avaient tragiquement déchiré sa propre parentèle. L’expression de ces profonds traumatismes socioculturels explique qu’il remercie Dieu d’avoir ôté son père au monde un an avant le tournant de 1588 ce qui lui évita, par chance, de voir les catholiques s’entretuer2. Fils d’un non-ligueur, le père Joseph (1577-1638) consacra sa carrière auprès de Richelieu à restaurer l’harmonie perdue du monde et rêva à ses débuts de mettre en place une union chrétienne contre les Turcs3. Aussi la question essentielle de savoir comment sortir des conflits fratricides et de l...
