[Appel à communication] A European Middle Ages. Circulation of objects, practices, and techniques between Central and Western Europe (1000-1600) – Doctoral Workshop – Prague, 24 avril 2025 – DL : 31 janvier

This doctoral workshop aims to explore approaches that interrogate the flow of objects, practices, and techniques within the broadly understood realm of material culture, in contexts of production or consumption. The title of this workshop focuses on geographical Europe, but the emphasis on the European Middle Ages is first and foremost a way of accounting for a material unity on a European scale, beyond political entities. Firstly, it turns out that, when everyday objects used by a large number of people become mass-consumed products, forms of standardization on a large spatial scale must be questionned, as well as its consequences, i.e. a number of similarities. These similarities are to be found in the form of objects themselves, but also in their materials and the ways in which they are made, and how different objects are produced using similar shaping methods. Secondly, even in the absence of mass consumption, motifs, representations and uses cross Europe, networks of practices emerge, which material culture carries with it, as shown in A united Europe of things. Portable material culture acrooss medieval Europe (eds. J. Sawicki, M. Lewis, M. Vargha).
