Short description of research profile

The HCTI laboratory, Heritage & Creation in Text & Image (UR 4249), is an interdisciplinary research unit. It consists of a team of fifty-six permanent members in Brest and Lorient, around forty doctoral students and fifty associates, researchers in the fields of Arts, Literature and Languages, who explore the modalities of heritage and creation in textual, digital, iconographic and filmic corpora, from Antiquity to the present day.

The laboratory offers various types of expertise in the fields of text and image analysis and processing, such as caricature, notably with the publication of the journal Ridiculosa, sociability in France and England during the Enlightenment, kitsch, studies on cinema and television series, and media discourse.
