Film Festivals and Middle Eastern Cinemas
“Regards” Journal
For the better part of a century, international film festivals have been essential to the global circulation of Middle Eastern cinema. Entanglements between festivals and cinema from the region date back to at least 1946, when the Egyptian film Dunia (dir. Mohammad Karim, 1946) screened at the first full edition of the Cannes Film Festival. Since then, films from the Arab world, Iran, and Turkey have been mainstays on the festival circuit, premiering and screening at the Big Five (Berlin, Cannes, Sundance, Toronto, and Venice), as well as smaller festivals around the world.

Humanités numériques et défis de l’émergence africaine
Ce colloque sur les humanités numériques en Afrique est un cadre d'échanges qui, au-delà des perspectives interdisciplinaires et pluridisciplinaires, se veut une occasion d'échanges en vue de creuser les limites imposées par le numérique et les sciences sociales. Dans une approche inclusive, il s'agit de montrer en quoi la dématérialisation et la démocratisation de l'information s'érigent en des questions épistémologiques sur le numérique, sur le modèle d’éducation et de culture dans une Afrique en plein essor. Les discussions porteront essentiellement sur le numérique, les lettres, les arts, la pédagogie, la recherche, les sciences sociales et l’émergence de l’Afrique.

Digital Humanities and Artificial Intelligence in African Studies
Towards Sustainable and Equitable Practices
The integration of digital humanities (DH) and artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the production of knowledge in African Studies, offering new opportunities for innovative analysis, dynamic visualisation and cross-cultural research. Yet this shift raises urgent questions regarding equitable access, the representation of African languages, and the suitability of methodologies. Current large language models underrepresent African languages, digital scholarly infrastructures remain optimised for English, and digitisation pipelines that produce AI-ready data are themselves shaped by political choices about what to digitise, how to describe it, and who controls access.

International Symposium on Information Sciences & Intelligent Systems
3IS
The International Symposium on Information Sciences and Intelligent Systems (3IS) is dedicated to the scientific, technological, and societal dimensions of information sciences, especially in relation with the recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI). At the crossroads of archiving, library and information sciences, digital heritage, data science, computational linguistics, ethics, governance, and pedagogy, the conference explores both classical and emergent trends in information sciences in an interdisciplinary perspective and how intelligent systems reshape the creation, organization, preservation, and dissemination of knowledge across disciplines.

History – Theory – Criticism Journal, Special Issue 2/2026
This special issue explores the Artificial Intelligence turn in contemporary historiography and its implications for historical knowledge, method, and ethics. Artificial intelligence reshapes core principles of the historian’s craft, from authorship and interpretation to verification and critical engagement with evidence. We invite contributions that examine how large language models and algorithmic infrastructures transform epistemic practices, reproduce or disrupt bias, challenge human interpretive agency, and alter conditions of education and scholarly labor. The issue seeks both critical reflections and methodological innovations addressing this rapidly evolving intellectual landscape.

Sociability and the Travelling Letter
Message, Medium, Mobility in Europe and the Colonies in the Long Eighteenth Century (1650-1850)
The long eighteenth century is widely recognisedby scholars as a golden age of letter writing, characterised by the expansion of transnational and transatlantic correspondence networks among the elites. Particularly in Britain, this period witnessed an unprecedented enthusiasm for epistolary exchange, which led to a proliferation of publications—ranging from scholarly productions such as theoretical treatises and letter-writing manuals, to literary works, whether fictional, sentimental, general, or biographical. These developments contributed to a redefinition of epistolary conventions, narrative models, and often gendered representations of letter writing.

Digital Humanities and Artificial Intelligence in African Studies
The integration of digital humanities (DH) and artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the production of knowledge in African Studies, offering new opportunities for innovative analysis, dynamic visualisation and cross-cultural research. This shift has the potential to reimagine cultural heritage, widen access to diverse narratives, and amplify marginalised voices. However, it also raises urgent questions regarding equitable access, the representation of African languages, and the suitability of methodologies.

Language, end of life, death, and bereavement: an interdisciplinary perspective
“Lexique”, 2026 Special Issue
With this special issue of Lexique journal our aim is to explore the question of the end of life and bereavement to open up a discussion on its lexical representations in order to facilitate communication around the sensitive subject of death. A variety of methods will be adopted, including corpus-, interview-, and questionnaire-based methods, in order to observe the representation of death-related issues at the lexical level.

Stockholm | Uppsala
Rather than framing this transformation solely as a rupture, the conference seeks to situate it within a longer history of computational rationality— a lineage in which the medium has continuously negotiated the demands of efficiency, scalability, and technical constraint. Our aim is to critically rethink comics not as passive recipients of technological change, but as active computational configurations: media fundamentally entangled with systems of automation, standardization, and information processing.

Female Voices, Media, and Modes of Communication in Theology and Philosophy
Women have long contributed to the development of theology and philosophy, yet their voices have often been marginalized, mediated through restrictive frameworks, or silenced altogether. This seminar approaches communication not only as a neutral means of expression, but also as a form of power: the choice of medium, style, and platform can grant authority, negotiate legitimacy, or challenge dominant structures.

Cultural and Heritage Property and Products in Africa, MENA Region and Beyond
Development, Circulation, Framework and Emerging Technologies

Already anchored in the interdisciplinary scientific line of this manifestation, the theme of this second edition focuses on the development and the circulation of cultural and heritage property and products while facing the digital technologies and artificial intelligence. It questions the framework and the issues of this dynamic and movement as well as the issues raised by the use of digitalization, technologies and artificial intelligence tools in the fields of culture, art and cultural heritage.

Conference, symposium - Epistemology and methodology
Translational Epistemologies and Open Science
Towards Equitable and Sustainable Ecosystems of Knowledge Production and Dissemination
Translation has emerged in recent decades as a keyword in disciplines such as cultural history, anthropology and science and technology studies (STS). Moreover, since around the turn of this century it has become an institutionalized concept in medicine – as evident in the increasing ubiquity of knowledge translation and translational research activities that attempt to put research-based knowledge into practice (Ødemark and Engebretsen 2018).This event will provide a forum for engaging with epistemologies and scholarly initiatives that seek to open up spaces for equitable and ethically responsible reflection on translation within various ecosystems of knowledge and society at large.
