From a theoretical point of view, after having defined "culture" under the two views of "high culture" and "mass culture", we will study the relationship between culture and its "institutions", which are understood both in the sense of structures responding to a restricted set of criteria and as "symbolic fields" (in the sense given by Pierre Bourdieu). From a practical point of view, the course is divided into two sections covering a) publishing institutions in Belgium and b) artistic institutions. The history of how these institutions or fields are constructed and a description of examples of them will be examined through case studies. Course objective :   To introduce the problems of sociology of culture and to highlight, through concrete case studies, the dynamic relationships (but also objective constraints) which these encounter in terms of training and dissemination. The course is widely illustrated by Powerpoint presentations. Workshops :   Each lecture will be divided in two sessions : first a general topic, then a close theoritical reading under the supervision of the professor or his assistant.
