Philology is one of the most investigated fields of Armenian studies. At the end of the twentieth century, it was important to provide an overview of the main achievements and on the methodological approaches implemented in this field till now. This is the aim of the present publication. Part I focuses on the manuscripts, the inscriptions, and the printings. Its second section is devoted to the textual criticisms and the third section explores the interface between linguistics and philology. Case studies form the core of Part II. One chapter offers an overview on the 17th-19th centuries, and two articles are devoted to the conditions of the circulation of the literary production in the 20th century, both in Western and Eastern Armenian.

L’espace extra-atmosphérique est aujourd’hui en proie à des enjeux à la fois nouveaux et considérables. Il voit se développer un marché privé en forte croissance, notamment à des fins d’exploitation des ressources, et donne lieu à d’importants investissements publics et privés, nationaux ou étrangers. Par ailleurs, alors qu’il est au centre des rapports de puissances depuis la Guerre Froide, l’espace devient le siège du développement d’activités militaires nouvelles, et potentiellement de conflits armés d’un nouvel âge. Une adaptation des règles internationales pertinentes semble désormais indispensable pour accompagner au mieux ces évolutions. Nombre de ces enjeux contemporains sont abordés dans le présent ouvrage, issu de deux demi-journées préparatoires au colloque de la Société française pour le droit international sur L’espace extra-atmosphérique et le droit international. Illustrant le dynamisme et la richesse de la jeune doctrine francophone, les communications ici réunies intéresseront les lecteurs issus du monde académique et les professionnels qui souhaitent cerner les problématiques de l’espace d’aujourd’hui et de demain.

David the Invincible’s (6th century AD) Commentary on Aristotle's Prior Analytics survives only in an old Armenian translation from Greek. Its critical edition with a Russian translation (1967) was based on the editio princeps of Venice (1833) and five manuscripts of the Matenadaran (Institute of Ancient Manuscripts, Erevan). This edition includes the text of 1967, revised through careful rechecking of the same five manuscripts and the editio princeps, as well as on the basis of twenty-three other manuscripts. The book contains the first English translation of the work, textual parallels with other commentaries on Aristotle, trilingual (Armenian, Greek, English) glossaries and other material useful to interested specialists. The introduction, among other subjects, discusses the disputable issues of authorship and the translator.

Dossier : Et si, par-delà la dichotomie classique sujet-objet, les artefacts étaient appréhendés comme des agents voire des événements, et considérés dans leur rapport au temps et à l’espace ? Ce dossier propose l’étude des phénomènes, dispositifs et contextes par lesquels les objets adviennent en Grèce ancienne. Varia : Balles de fronde, noms barbares : la puissance des mots. Imaginaires du passé : la guerre lélantine, la figure de Solon. Le rôle de la peau dans le diagnostic médical. Savoirs et lieux de savoirs. Issue: How can we break the paradigm in which objects are thought of as simple devices or mediators, ontologically distinct from human subjects? A close dialogue with anthropological fieldwork invites to focus on the « presence » of artifacts, as they are given within a « world horizon » (Merleau-Ponty). This report explores the phenomena, devices and contexts able to bring an artifact to life, paying close attention to their modes of presentification. Examining how they are activated sheds new light on the way objects are handled. What happens when an artifact is augmented, modified, hidden or, per contra, disclosed? What enunciative and visual strategies does it appear with? In that perspective, the artifact is not to be thought of as a closed, finite object, but has to be connected with the sensory environment it creates or which affects it.

Models of Charitable Care analyses the practice of Catholic nuns in Amsterdam in the 19th and 20th century. Attention is paid to the ambiguous ascetic spiritual discourse that underpinned their work: it encouraged charity as solidarity with strangers, but caused intense emotional distance too. Historiography is mainly manufactured by religious and lay academics who shared the congregational perspective and presented fairly positive evaluations. Criticism from within, however, is voiced by care leavers who grew up in homes ran by religious. Some are grateful, others bitter. The sisters were living models who combined an anti-worldly outlook with a practical concern for vulnerable creatures. Relating various theoretical interpretations, a typology of three models is developed with ‘agency’ as the differentiating criterion.
