2013 will be the year of the 25th Rencontres Edition. A quarter of a century has already passed. So this is a pivotal year, the anniversary.
We will continue our journey through the metamorphoses of Europe. This will be the 3rd stage of our journey. After the discovery of the New World in 2011, the reform of Europe in 2012, we will discuss now the theme of the Enlightenment in the eighteenth century. We will discuss how this prestigious cultural, social and philosophical movement transformed Europe to the culmination of the French Revolution. To this we will consecrate the closing show-parade, because if the Revolution is the result of the Enlightenment movement, it is also the melting pot of the contemporary world.
By radically changing the political and cultural landscape of Europe, the French revolution gave the world new values: the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It’s particularly important to celebrate this revolution and, more precisely the values it brought, because it was exactly here, in Grenoble, where everything began in 1788.
To evoke this significant history step, it also means to take part in the vast movement that carries the whole world population to respect the fundamental rights of the individual.
