Fonds d'archives du collège des Irlandais de Paris

Title: Fonds d'archives du collège des Irlandais de Paris

On peut être surpris de trouver des actes médiévaux dans le fonds d'un établissement fondé au XVIe siècle. En fait, il s'agit des actes et titres de propriétés sur parchemins concernant le collège des Lombards, qui ont été transmis à la communauté irlandaise lorsque celle-ci s'est établie dans les bâtiments de la rue des Carmes. Le volume le plus important est constitué par les archives du collège avec, outre les documents concernant le Collège des Lombards, ceux du Collège des Irlandais et des bâtiments situés dans et autour de la capitale et appartenant à la communauté Irlandaise, avec une partie particulièrement fournie sur la maison de campagne d'Arcueil (Val-de-Marne), ainsi que des dossiers sur des membres de l'administration du collège. Le fonds dispose également d'une partie sur les fondations des bourses dont étaient dotés les élèves irlandais boursiers venus étudier à Paris. Le Collège des Irlandais de Paris devait probablement jouer le rôle de « maison-mère » par rapport aux autres établissements fondés en France, ce qui peut expliquer pourquoi le fonds possède des liasses concernant les établissements situés à Bordeaux, Douai, Nantes, Rouen et Poitiers. De plus, la fusion opérée au début du XIXe siècle pour l'administration des établissements irlandais, écossais et anglais nous permet de disposer de quelques informations sur ces établissements. Le Collège des Irlandais ayant été principalement un lieu de formation de prêtres, l'on retrouve au sein du fonds un ensemble de documents sur l'Eglise et le monde religieux, avec des lettres d'ordinations et de missions et de la correspondance officielle avec de hauts-membres du clergé. On trouve aussi dans ces Archives un ensemble constitué d'ouvrages, de revues, d'articles et de coupures de presses, de brochures et de prospectus ainsi que de photographies. La présence d'Archives privées, notamment celles d'Antonio de Arauz y Bexaxano en langue espagnole, est à signaler. On note également la présence d'objets (médailles, clefs, boîtes, sacs en tissus avec jetons, encriers, cadres…). Au total, ce sont plus de 19 000 pièces qui sont conservées dans ces Archives.
