AB -  In his fascinating  ego-history La Chambre de veille and in his recent book Croire en l’histoire  the well-known French historian François Hartog, who teaches historiography at the  École des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales in Paris, reflects on his own formation  and revisits some of the concepts which have been at the core of his production.  The experience of travelling was fundamental to his approaches both on the ancient  world and on the regimes of historicity. Equally important for his work have been  on the one hand Claude Lévi-Strauss and Marshall Sahlins, and on the other Michel  De Certeau. Reading Hartog, Porciani points to the specificities of the intellectual  milieux of the Sorbonne and the Grandes Écoles in the 1970s, and focusses on the  network that gathered around Pierre Vidal-Naquet and Jean Pierre Vernant, which  was crucial for the definition of Hartog’s approaches. Porciani also discusses the  notion of «presentism», as Hartog reconsiders it in the light of the belief in history.  Finally, introducing an interview with Hartog, she also stresses the importance of  literature in Hartog’s work, as well as in his way of analyzing different regimes of  historicity.
