History of the School
After several attempts to establish under Napoleon , the Royal School of charters is founded by order of Louis XVIII of 22 February 1821 . The ordinance states that two students are appointed by the Interior Minister on a proposal from the Academy of Inscriptions and Belles-lettres and paid during the two years of their studies . These include primarily the paleography and philology in a purely utilitarian purpose: students should read and understand the documents they are responsible for maintaining. Teachers and school students are under the authority of the curator of medieval manuscripts in the Royal Library located rue de Richelieu in Paris , and under the custody of the General Archives of the United .
This first experiment is not conclusive, particularly because no opportunity is offered to students: the courses must be suspended on 19 December 1823 . The school is now open to any bachelor, but at the end of the first year, six to eight winners are chosen by competition, they receive treatment and after two years of additional training. When they finish, they receive the diploma of paleographer archivist and is being set aside half the vacancies in libraries and archives . The first is Major Alexander Teulet.
The "moment Guizot 'promotes the School, who manages to establish itself quickly in the field of history, particularly medieval. On 24 March 1839 is based - among others to Louis Dout Arcq - Society School of charters, which publishes the School Library charters to spread the work of the Chartists . This is one of the oldest French scientific journals. Finally, an order of 31 December 1846 reorganized the school, that for over a century . Finally, the school moved and settled into the Hotel de Soubise , with input through the door of the old Hotel de Clisson , close to the Archives of Norway .
School charters is then set new standards in Europe : teaching (with facsimiles of old documents) and the methodology of historical research are deeply renewed . Subsequently, the "monopoly Chartist is placed in the archives: orders reserved for alumni of the school places departmental archivists (decree of February 4, 1850) and all seats in the National Archives (except clerical decree of 14 May 1887) .
The school moved in 1866 at the Hotel de Breteuil , Rue des Francs-Bourgeois , in places more suitable , . Without affecting much teaching, seven chairs are created by the Decree of 30 January 1869 : palaeography; Romance languages, bibliography, classification of libraries and archives; diplomatic political institutions, administrative and judicial France, civil law and Canon Law of the Middle Ages Medieval Archaeology. Apart from changes in detail, they remain unchanged until 1955 .
The cole Nationale des Chartes is again moved in 1897 : it then settled at 19, rue de la Sorbonne , in the premises originally planned for the Catholic Theological Faculty of Paris . The school is close geographically and other research organizations and educational hosted at the Sorbonne , such as the Faculty of Arts and the Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes. The school has a classroom with windows on both sides, what is considered necessary for the practice of paleography . The school is with the Faculty of Law one of the foundations of the French Action in the early twentieth century . Conservatism, however, does not contest that in 1906, for the first time, a woman, Genevieve Aclocque , integrates school 17 years before the same thing will happen to the ENS , 66 years before the School Polytechnic.
The entrance examinations and are reformed in early 1930 . At that time, the school also supports the training of librarians by preparing the technical diploma in librarianship (DTB), necessary to obtain a position classified library or university library. Non-chartists are then allowed to follow the course of history books and literature to prepare the diploma. This practice ended in 1950 when the Higher Diploma in Librarian (DSB) replaces the DTB .
The middle of the twentieth century is a difficult time for the school, which is multiple and difficult to renew. Its numbers are declining sharply (9 students for 8 teachers in 1974 ). His teaching is considered to be older, only taking little account of new historical approaches, including the renewal historiography of the Annales school . Only in the 1990s , a reform of the entrance and lessons, and a new policy that a revival is really felt: the school is entering a period of change in the direction of Yves Mary Rocked ( one thousand nine hundred and ninety-two - 2001 ) and that of Anita Guerreau-Jalabert ( 2001 - 2006 ). The current director, Jacques Berlioz , located in the same conception of things. Solid training in new technologies applied to the study and conservation of cultural heritage on the one hand, the much closer relationship and structured with French universities and similar institutions in other European countries on the other hand, are the two main axes of the current development but the research activities of the School of charters would join the " campus Condorcet Paris-Aubervilliers "in the campus plan , .
