About
Automatically translated. Read the original French text.
Philippe Artières is a contemporary historian specializing in the practices and representations of the written word: scholarly writing, professional writing, life writing.
He has taken a particular interest in prison archives and the writings of prisoners, notably in his books Le Livre des vies coupables. Autobiographies de criminels, 1896-1909 (Albin-Michel, 2000) and Un séminariste assassin. L'affaire Bladier, 1905 (CNRS Éditions, 2020).
This lecture is part of the Dixit series and will take place at the Mairie du 10e arrondissement.
The Comité d'Histoire de la Ville de Paris, the association Histoire et vies du 10e, and the médiathèque Françoise Sagan present a series of lectures on the theme of detention, designed to complement, enrich, and broaden the scope of the exhibition Prisonnières, les dernières années de la prison Saint-Lazare (1919-1932) presented at the media library.
