The École française de Rome (EFR) is a French research institute for history, archaeology, and the social sciences; overseen by the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres, and a division of the Ministère de l'Enseignement supérieur et de la Recherche.
History and description
The EFR is the successor to the Institut de Correspondance Archéologique, created in 1829 to accommodate researchers from outside Rome. Composed largely of French and German scholars, it was permanently closed as a result of the Franco-Prussian War. In 1873, a branch of the École française d'Athènes was opened there; becoming the EFR in 1875.
The following year, it found a home on the second floor of the Palazzo Farnese, together with the French Embassy [fr]. It has eighteen students, who are there for three years, recruited from doctors and advanced doctoral candidates. It also awards 150 grants each year, to young researchers whose work requires them to be in Italy for one or two months.
The EFR is managed by a Director and is divided into three sections (Antiquity, Middles Ages, Modern Period), each with its own Vice-Director. It has an extensive library, open to members, former members, and accredited researchers.
It operates its own publishing house, the Publications de l'École française de Rome [fr], which offers several periodical journals, as well as collections of the work done by former members, many of which are available at the Persée digital library.
The EFR also organizes archaeological excavation sites throughout Italy, North Africa and the Balkans.
