Résumé :

As a young officer graduating from Saint-Cyr, Emile Espérandieu (1857-1939) discovered Roman epigraphy in Tunisia in 1883. Through the contacts he developed within scholarly Associations and through his regional publications, he acquired a degree of legitimacy in the eyes of scholars, reinforced by his succession to the direction of Auguste Allmer's Revue épigraphique du Midi de la France, but also by his participation in the Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum. Having become a specialist in the Gallo-Roman world, supported by Salomon Reinach, René Cagnat and Camille Jullian, Major Espérandieu was put in charge of the Recueil des bas-reliefs de la Gaule in 1903, a monumental work that he completed thanks to his French and German networks. Finally, it was with the Alesia site, which had become a place of scientific and political importance, that his reputation as a field archaeologist was definitively established.

The study of the archives kept at the Palais du Roure in Avignon, in particular his scientific correspondence, allows us to understand the development of his scientific career, but also, on the basis of his exemplary career, to analyse the social interactions and scholarly practices within the archaeological networks of metropolitan France of his time.
