A woman of spirit as much as of action, Mireille Delmas-Marty liked to call, in reference to Bachelard, on the imaginative forces of law. This day of tribute to her person and her work is placed under the sign of imagination. Some of her colleagues at the Collège de France and beyond, with whom she took pleasure in imagining what does not yet exist, and then bringing it to fruition, have come together to continue this work in her memory. Indeed, she would certainly have wished for a forward-looking and creative tribute, hence the title and program of this day.

The Promise, René Magritte 1950.
