SEMINAR SERIES: Between Exchange and Expulsion Jews and Christians in France, 1096–1394 (Paris: Institut historique allemand, 17-19 SEPT 2024)


Ce colloque, organisé du mardi 17 au jeudi 19 septembre 2024 à l'Institut historique allemand (Paris), abordera les relations entre juifs et chrétiens en France de 1096 à 1394 en évaluant les facteurs sociaux, juridiques, économiques et culturels qui ont influencé la cohabitation judéo-chrétienne pendant et après les croisades.

L’accent sera mis sur les échanges interreligieux et les évolutions des deux religions: en ce qui concerne le rapport aux textes sacrés, il existe des preuves d’un dialogue soutenu; au niveau social, de nombreux indices laissent supposer une intégration harmonieuse de la communauté juive dans la société chrétienne. Cependant, jusqu‘au xiie siècle, il n’existe pas de dispositions exhaustives ancrant la place de la population juive dans le droit. Au lieu de cela, on observe à partir de la fin du XIIe siècle, des expulsions récurrentes, motivées par des intérêts religieux, économiques et politiques, aboutissant finalement à l‘expulsion définitive des juifs de France en 1394.

The conference explores the interactions between Christians and Jews in France from 1096 to 1394, focussing on social, legal, economic and cultural factors that influenced Jewish-Christian coexistence during and after the Crusades. It centres on interreligious exchange and the transformations of both religions: With regard to the handling of sacred scriptures, there is evidence of an intensive dialogue. This also applies to the social sphere where many indications suggest an inclusion of the Jewish community in Christian society. On the other hand, until the 12th century there were no detailed regulations that formalised the place of the Jewish population in law. Instead, it can be observed that from the end of the 12th century onwards, successive expulsions fuelled by religious, economic and political interests ultimately led to the final expulsion of the Jews from France in 1394.
