Abstract
V originále
The present paper inserts itself in a significant part of the research in the frame of our joint project on Conques, mentioned during the introduction: that dedicated to the tension between the 19th and 20th century restorations of Romanesque sites and the understanding of their actual original parameters – about which we had the occasion to speak at length in many of the stimulating contributions of yesterday and earlier today. My contribution will not focus on the historiography of Conques itself, but on the ideas and practices on and of restoration which are developed in the 19th century, trying to precise and further investigate the tension between restoring, reinventing, and reactivating medieval monuments. Drawing on the conference title hinting at globalizing perspectives – and I will not yet re-enter into the debate here – and within a broader investigation that feeds my reflections on the transformations of the notion of “Byzantine” art and architecture, I set out to focus on Romanesque buildings which presented characteristics deemed “Oriental” or, more precisely “Byzantine,” from the 19th century on.
