• Sommario/riassunto: Debates on the Holocaust is the first attempt to survey the development of Holocaust historiography for a generation. It analyses the development of history writing on the destruction of the European Jews from just before the end of the Second World War to the present day, and argues forcefully that history writing is as much about the present as it is the past. The book guides the reader through the major debates in Holocaust historiography and shows how all of these controversies are as much products of their own time as they are attempts to uncover the past.Debates on the Holocaust will

• Sommario/riassunto: Le geste technique est reconnu comme partie intégrante d'un « patrimoine immatériel » par la richesse inégalée des métiers vivants. Comment comprendre ce mouvement du corps ouvrier dans toutes ses nuances, au fil du temps, grâce aux mots, aux images et aux traces matérielles ? L’ouvrage est un hommage à l’anthropologue François Sigaut (1940-2012). Conçu par les auteurs comme outil essentiel à qui souhaite saisir la multiplicité des approches, il revient sur les bilans et perspectives des recherches universitaires les plus récentes. Le geste ; prime sur les mots et valorise l’individu inscrit dans une communauté d’expérience, d’acquis et d’excellence. Sont déclinés l’apprentissage d’un geste pour produire et transformer, la vie du geste et le geste artificiel. Les contributions sont pluridisciplinaires : verrerie, pierre, céramique, art campanaire, bijouterie, lutherie, mine, industrie textile, chantier naval, cuir, techniques agricoles ou alimentaires… Dès le xviiie siècle, le geste, initiateur des métiers, s’émancipe de l’atelier, compose avec la machine et abandonne progressivement l’outillage traditionnel. Au xxe siècle, la machine supplante parfois intégralement l’homme dans la réalisation du geste qui sera intégré, disséqué et exécuté par la robotique au xxie siècle. The technical gesture is nowadays recognized as an integral part of an “intangible cultural heritage”, due to the unrivaled richness of living professions and crafts. How to understand the technical gesture in every shape and form, in the course of time, thanks to words, images and material imprints? Designed by the authors as the essential tool to whom is yearning to understand the abundance of approaches, this publication, in tribute to the anthropologist of techniques Francois Sigaut (1940-2012), comes back on the most recent assessments and perspectives in academia. The technical gesture take precedence over the words and highlights the individual accepted in a community of experience,…
