The objective of the Modern History seminar is to acquire the practice of research in History. The student, at the end of this course, should be able to correctly apprehend original documents from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries and to make the most of them to "write history" in turn.
Using a variety of sources, archives, press or works, the study may focus, depending on the year, on material life, environmental aspects, or the economic and social life of the Modern Age.
Written work (+ possible oral presentation).
The readings vary from year to year depending on the theme.
