Seagram Lecture: "/Cardenio/, or How to Read and Stage a Lost Play" - Roger Chartier
Roger Chartier is Chair of History of Written Culture in Modern Europe, Coll猫ge de France, Professor of History, 脡cole des hautes 茅tudes en Sciences Sociales, and Annenberg Visiting Professor of History, University of Pennsylvania. He frequently lectures and teaches in the United States, Spain, M茅xico, Brazil and Argentina. His work in Early Modern European History was rooted in the tradition of the "Annales School" and mainly dedicated to the history of education, the history of the book and the history of reading. Recently, he has focused on the relationship between written culture as a whole and literature (particularly theatrical plays) for France, England and Spain. His work in this specific field (based on the criss-crossing between literary criticism, bibliography, and sociocultural history) is not disconnected from broader historiographical and methodological interests which deal with the relation between history and other disciplines: philosophy, sociology, anthropology.
