Welcome to Florence Perret. She will do at least a one-day-a-week internship during the first term. She might decide to stay longer."As a history student on my second year of Master degree at the University of Paris- Saclay/Versailles-Saint Quentin, I am currently working on a Master thesis that focuses on the consumption of exotic goods in 18th century Versailles. Considering the theme of this Master thesis, this internship is a real chance for me to learn the basics of academic research in an area that matches my personal interest. Even though my own research is mostly dedicated to social and cultural history, this experience is an opportunity to consider the external commercial trade of 18th century France, and thus, a possibility to familiarize myself with economic history. But, more importantly, this internship will provide me a familiarity with necessary tools and methods such as the creation of a database or the classification of terms and items. This knowledge will be particularly convenient as I consider continuing my research in the following years. I really hope my participation will also benefit TOFLIT18 and help managing the information contained in the database."&#160;cv-florence-perret-stagebis
