Content The course must be composed of three parts, returning one with the other in a complementary way. It must initially propose a critical history of the principal authors of the field of the sociology of the culture (Bourdieu, Heinich…) and of the field of farming the studies, since R. Hoggart until the more recent theories (gender studies…). This history of the theories of the cultural analysis must then be put in prospect for manner critical, in order to allow the construction of tools for analysis. It is a question of exceeding the encyclopaedic approach to manage to produce grids of interpretation of the cultural practices, as well in situation of production as of reception. Lastly, the students will be brought, in fine, to carry out a case study of a cultural practice (in the sector of the visual arts, the music, the exposures, the literature, the media…) that they will be able to analyze in its socio-economic, political context, ideological, using the tools of which they will have to thus express their practical and intellectual control.
