De nouvelles pratiques funéraires, entre réel et virtuel, marquent ce début de xxie siècle. À l’heure des éternités numériques, un nouveau champ d’expression du mourir surgit et le lien avec les défunts se pérennise et se modifie. De quelles façons notre rapport à la mort s’est-il métamorphosé dans le contexte de la mondialisation et de la médiatisation des dernières décennies ? Comment se dématérialise la sociabilité funèbre, comment se transforme le soin fourni aux cadavres ? Quelle gestion mortuaire, d’ordre politique et symbolique, adopter face aux dépouilles indésirables (attentats-suicides) ou en cas de corps souillés (guerre, génocide) ou absents (migrants) ? Dans une perspective pluridisciplinaire et comparatiste, cet Essentiel d’Hermès aborde la mort comme un phénomène de communication vital qui engage notre rapport à l’altérité et à l’identité.

Medieval Concepts of the Past shows how the history of the Middle Ages is reshaped by leading medieval historians in Germany and the United States in the light of cultural and social-scientific investigations into ritual, language and memory. These two national traditions of medieval scholarship, which have been largely separated over the course of the twentieth century, are drawing closer together through a common interest in issues of social science and linguistic theory as applied to the representation of the past. This book marks a step in the reconvergence of these two historiographical traditions.

This book examines the interchange of architecture and ritual in the Middle and Late Byzantine churches of Constantinople (ninth to fifteenth centuries). It employs archaeological and archival data, hagiographic and historical sources, liturgical texts and commentaries, and monastic typika and testaments to integrate the architecture of the medieval churches of Constantinople with liturgical and extra-liturgical practices and their continuously evolving social and cultural context. The book argues against the approach that has dominated Byzantine studies: that of functional determinism, the view that architectural form always follows liturgical function. Instead, proceeding chapter by chapter through the spaces of the Byzantine church, it investigates how architecture responded to the exigencies of the rituals, and how church spaces eventually acquired new uses. The church building is described in the context of the culture and people whose needs it was continually adapted to serve. Rather than viewing churches as frozen in time (usually the time when the last brick was laid), this study argues that they were social constructs and so were never finished, but continually evolving.
