Publication – Dominique Allios, « L’église de Saint-Nectaire en Auvergne »

Malgré sa notoriété, l’église romane de Saint-Nectaire n’avait pas fait l’objet d’une monographie. Cet ouvrage est une enquête critique la plus exhaustive possible qui a été menée au cours de sa restauration. Elle croise différentes disciplines, l’histoire, l’archéologie, la géologie, l’archéométrie, l’architecture, l’archéologie du bâti et l’histoire de l’art. Écrit dans un langage clair, ce livre constitue aussi un manuel pour les étudiants a  n de présenter toutes les modalités d’investigation qui tentent de répondre à différentes questions  : quand et qui l’a faite ? Comment a-t-elle été construite ? Et de quelle manière l’architecture et les décors se combinaient avec la liturgie ? La sculpture exceptionnelle de Saint-Nectaire, nourrie de références antiques, porte un discours religieux et politique dans le mouvement de la réforme grégorienne au XIe et au XIIe siècle. Cette monographie est aussi le prétexte à une réflexion sur la création artistique en Auvergne et aux cultures européenne et méditerranéenne du Moyen Âge.

Dominique Allios est maître de conférences en archéologie et en histoire de l’art du Moyen Âge à l’université de Rennes 2. Son parcours associe la recherche fondamentale à celle de terrain, il a mené et participé à des campagnes de fouilles en France, en Italie, au Moyen-Orient, en Afrique, et au Bangladesh.

RMBLF – Le RMBLF vous souhaite une excellente année 2026 !

Toute l’équipe du Réseau des Médiévistes belges de Langue française vous souhaite une très heureuse année 2026, pleine de réussite personnelles et professionnelles !

Par rapport à 2024, qui fut particulièrement chargée pour l’équipe du Réseau, à travers un renouvellement important de son comité, l’année 2025 s’est avérée plus calme. Nos activités habituelles se sont poursuivies, notamment à travers l’organisation de deux rencontres scientifiques : d’une part, Individualité et ubiquité de l’expérience médiévale de « l’ailleurs », organisée au MRAH (Bruxelles) le 25 avril 2025, d’autre part, l’atelier Moyen Âge clef en main. Outillages méthodologiques pour une approche interdisciplinaire, qui nous a permis d’expérimenter un format de rencontre beaucoup plus « horizontal » lors de deux journées tenues à Bruxelles et Liège les 27 et 28 octobre 2025.

Au rang des bonnes nouvelles, on se doit de pointer que le RMBLF compte depuis le 27 février 2025 une docteure de plus : Sandra Otte a en effet soutenu avec succès sa thèse de doctorat Le personnage babélien au Moyen Âge. Étude de la langue des personnages et de la représentation du plurilinguisme dans la littérature médiévale d’oïl à l’Université de Liège (dir. Nadine Henrard). Nous lui renouvelons toutes nos félicitations !

L’année a également été mis à profit pour esquisser un portrait de groupe des médiévistes belges (francophones et flamands), un travail qui est appelé à se poursuivre. Vous pouvez retrouver les résultats préliminaires de cette étude sur le blog Pour une sociologie des médiévistes : ici

Le programme des activités de l’année 2026 commence à se dessiner. Notez d’ores et déjà la date du vendredi 13 mars 2026 dans votre agenda : ce jour-là, les médiévistes belges francophones recevront leurs homologues flamands du Vlaamse Werkgroep Mediëvistiek pour une rencontre intitulée Dies Namurcensis, qui se partagera entre visites et présentations des tendances actuelles de l’historiographie du nord du pays.

Toujours soutenu par le CRHiDI (UCLouvain – Saint-Louis, Bruxelles), INCAL (UCLouvain), PraME (UNamur), sociAMM (ULB) et l’UR Transitions (ULiège), notre blog a été consulté un peu plus de 184 000 fois pour un total de 1027 annonces publiées. Ces chiffres sont en augmentation de près de 10% par rapport à l’année dernière ! Vous pouvez retrouver dans l’article suivant la liste des annonces de 2025 les plus consultées. Merci encore pour votre fidélité !

    Publication – Boèce, « Consolation de Philosophie », trad. Jean-Yves Guillaumin

    Boèce, sénateur romain érudit et philosophe, premier ministre du roi goth Théodoric, brusquement disgracié et condamné à mort, voit s’écrouler, à quarante ans, sa félicité et ses raisons de vivre. Dans son désespoir lui apparaît Philosophie, son éducatrice, personnifiée. Dialoguant avec le prisonnier, Philosophie le ramène peu à peu de son état initial d’hébétude et de révolte à la redécouverte des plus hautes vérités consolatrices : harmonie des choses, malheur des méchants, bonheur des justes, règne de la Providence… Boèce, bien entendu, est derrière le personnage de Philosophie aussi bien qu’en celui du Prisonnier dans ce récit d’apparition qu’il met en forme en tant que narrateur. La forme choisie est celle du prosimètre, alternance de prose et de vers ; la poésie de Boèce y est remarquable. Nourrie de la littérature et de la réflexion de toute l’Antiquité, la Consolation de Philosophie fut le livre de chevet du Moyen Âge et même au-delà. Trente ans après l’édition dans la CUF (1995) de l’Institution arithmétique, ouvrage de jeunesse de Boèce, la présente édition offre un texte de la Consolation fondé sur des manuscrits représentatifs de la tradition, avec une traduction renouvelée et un appareil de notes beaucoup plus développé que dans le volume paru dans La Roue à livres en 2002.

    Jean-Yves Guillaumin, professeur émérite de l’Université de Franche-Comté, a consacré une grande partie de ses travaux aux textes scientifiques, philosophiques et encyclopédiques dans l’Antiquité, éditant notamment aux Belles Lettres, dans la CUF ou dans ALMA, un certain nombre de traités mathématiques et techniques latins.

    Publication – « Medieval Women in Letters. Letters by Women, to Women, and about Women in Medieval Literatures », éd. Elisabetta Bartoli

    The letter was the most widespread means of communication in the Middle Ages and the most practiced literary genre also among women. This volume, produced under the auspices of the Medieval Women in Letters project from the MedioEvA Center (University of Siena, Rome Sapienza and Tours), explores the rhetorical, literary, thematic, and historical-cultural aspects of the female epistolography in the Middle Ages. Latin literature constitutes a cohesive element between the various vernacular languages that were establishing themselves during the Middle Ages, and this volume promotes the study of women’s literature and medieval woman by adopting a consistently comparative and translinguistic method, analyzing women’s literature in all the languages used in medieval Europe.

    The methodology focuses on the literary tradition, especially the linguistic and philological spheres. Specialists in Germanic, Middle Latin, Romance, Arabic, Italian, and Byzantine literature discuss published and unpublished female letters, with particular focus on the main challenges that female writing in the Middle Ages presents, including: authorship, the relationship between copyist and author, the degree of female literacy, training structures, the role of writing in the various seasons of the Middle Ages, and the modern critical reception of female epistolography. As a result, this volume seeks to dismantle obsolete critical prejudices and redefine a literary canon that fully includes women.

    Elisabetta Bartoli, the editor of the volume, is the PI of the MEWIL project, funded by Unisi. She teaches medieval Latin literature at Siena University and is Director of MedioEvA, a centre for the female medieval literature (Medioeva.unisi.it). Her principal research topics are the ars dictandi and female literature. She has published some critical editions and she edited (with Christian Hoegel), for Brepols, the volume Medieval Letters: between Fiction and Document (2015).

    Publication – « Law, society and political culture in late medieval and Reformation Germany », éd. et trad. Duncan Hardy

    This book offers a selection of edited and translated sources that shed light on law, society and political culture in Germany between the mid-fourteenth and mid-sixteenth centuries, enabling readers to discover the tumultuous late medieval and Reformation era in the Holy Roman Empire in unprecedented depth. The selection includes all the major legislation issued in the Empire from the Golden Bull of 1356 to the Peace of Augsburg in 1555. Most of these laws, which have shaped the constitutional development of Germany in its various incarnations down to the twenty-first century, are translated into English here for the first time. Thematic chapters cover the unique elective monarchy, imperial diets, plans for imperial and ecclesiastical reform, alliances and associations, warfare and arbitration and lordship and administration at local levels. Each theme is contextualised by the author’s detailed interpretive prefaces.

    Duncan Hardy is Associate Professor of History at the University of Central Florida

    Offre d’emploi – 3-year postdoc position in medieval studies: Unlocking the Medieval Book: Texts, Crafts, & Networks of Northern Europe

    3-year postdoc position in medieval studies

    The Department of Culture and Language invites applications for a 3-year postdoc position in Dominican studies within the CODICUM project.

    The position is expected to begin 1 April 2026, or as soon as possible thereafter. We seek a highly motivated post-doctoral researcher to work on Work Package 3 of CODICUM, led by PI prof. Lars Boje Mortensen.

    About the CODICUM project

    CODUCUM is a collaborative project on Nordic medieval intellectual and book history based on the c. 50.000 medieval Latin manuscript fragments kept in the major archives and libraries in the Nordic countries. The project is financed by an ERC synergy grant (2025-31) and is led by four PIs at the Universities of Bergen, Helsinki, Copenhagen and SDU in Odense. The ambition of the project is rewriting medieval Nordic book history with traditional humanities approaches combined with a substantial science element in terms of spectrometric parchment analysis of proteins and DNA. 

    Job description and requirements

    • The successful applicant is expected to have expert Latin, palaeographical as well as text and book historical skills. The postdoc project involves identifying fragments with Dominican texts or related to Dominican environments in order to uncover patterns of educational and learned networks in the period c. 1250 – c. 1450 across the Nordic countries (the Dominican province of Dacia) and their relations to European centres of learning.
    • It will count as a plus if the applicant has already published within mendicant studies
    • The position also demands good collaborative skills as the project will be conducted in coordination with a number of other fragment researchers, including textual scholars, curators, IT infrastructure specialists and biochemists.
    • The postdoc is expected to participate actively in CODICUM project meetings, workshops etc.
    • Administrative tasks, such as co-organizing a conference, writing reports and more, will form part of the job.
    • The postdoc is also expected to contribute actively to outreach activities, such as blog writing, working with the holding institutions and more.

    For further information about the position contact professor Lars Boje Mortensen on labo@sdu.dk. For general questions about employment at the University of Southern Denmark, contact Vice Head of Department Anne Klara Bom at akbom@sdu.dk

    For questions related to CV, diplomas etc., please contact humfak-hr@sdu.dk 

    If you are not a Danish-speaking applicant, please ensure that you use the English website to access the electronic application form to receive further information in English.

    Application, salary and conditions of employment
    The employment as postdoc is temporary. Employment stops automatically by the end of the period. An upgrade of pedagogical qualifications is not part of the position. Thus, employment as postdoc cannot stand alone as a qualification for later employment as associate professor/senior researcher.

    The successful applicant will be employed in accordance with the agreement between the Ministry of Finance and AC (the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations), Cirkulære om overenskomst for Akademikere i staten 2025 (the document only exists in Danish).  

    Persons employed in the position may, based on a specific individual managerial evaluation, be exempted from time registration, also known as a “self-organizer”.

    Publication – Neil Stratford, « Feuillages gothiques. Une saison naturaliste dans l’art du Moyen Âge »

    À l’aube du XIIIe siècle, une nouvelle esthétique émerge dans le décor des églises comme dans les arts précieux, traduisant une conception neuve de la nature. D’abord en France, dans l’architecture gothique, puis ailleurs en Europe, arbres, fleurs et surtout feuillages surgissent et se répandent sous la main d’artistes qui reproduisent des formes naturelles minutieusement observées. Ce moment naturaliste se révèle pourtant éphémère et s’étiole dès le tournant du XIVe siècle, lorsque réapparaît la prédilection pour les motifs végétaux stylisés. Au croisement de l’esthétique et de la botanique, Neil Stratford nous invite, à travers une riche sélection d’œuvres, à découvrir un pan méconnu de l’art médiéval.
