Quelques aperçus sur l'histoire des villes
Résumé
The investigation presented here aims at determining the rhythms
and the moments of interests for the cities in the French historians production.
It is based on the exhaustive analysis of the 400 articles relating to
the city in three great French reviews between 1876 and 1968. The
principal conclusions are that after a first phase of research (until
about 1928) which is characterized by its diversity, one second phase,
mainly made up around the productions of Annales, organizes research
around two questions: economy and the society. In other words, the
development of research on the city thanks to Annals is accompanied by
an impoverishment of the sets of themes.

L'enquête présentée ici vise à déterminer les rythmes et les moments d'intérêts pour les villes chez les historiens français. Elle s'appuie sur l'analyse exhaustive des 400 articles relatifs à la ville dans trois grandes revues françaises entre 1876 et 1968. Les conclusions principales sont qu'après une première phase de recherche (jusque vers 1928) qui se caractérise par sa diversité, une seconde phase, principalement constituée autour des productions des Annales, organise la recherche autour de deux questions : l'économie et la société. Autrement dit, le développement de la recherche sur la ville grâce aux Annales s'accompagne d'un appauvrissement des thématiques.
