The badge, an original emblematic code created in the 14th century, currently constitutes an object of renewed and dynamic scholarly study throughout Europe and beyond. A large number of recent international publications (books, articles, websites) have drawn attention to these ubiquitous elements of the emblematic and ornamental vocabulary of late medieval and early modern times. However, the growing interest in this object of study – true expression of the culture and mentality of its time – had yet to result in a specific scientific event in which scholars could share their knowledge and questions.
