Femmes influentes dans le monde hellénistique et à Rome
IIe table ronde, Lausanne, 6 Juin 2014
La démarche comparatiste entre deux périodes et deux mondes qui voient fonctionner des cours – monarchiques ou impériales – permet d’approfondir le raisonnement et de poser nettement la question des transmissions, des évolutions et des permanences dans le monde aulique. Textes littéraires, inscriptions, papyri et monnaies seront utilisés dans ces réflexions. Ces deux tables-rondes ont pour but affirmé de créer le dialogue entre les chercheurs qui sont invités à présenter des communications « ouvertes », destinées à faire naître des interrogations auxquelles un groupe de « participants- questionneurs » apportent leurs réponses éventuelles ou leurs propres réflexions.
