    Petrus Hispanus' Tractatus : Logic and Philosophy from the Middle Ages to Modernity

    Petrus Hispanus’ Tractatus, or Summulae logicales, composed in the mid-thirteenth century, came to occupy a central place in the study of logic from the late thirteenth century onward. Commented in several studia and then by Buridan at the University of Paris, it was gradually adopted across European universities and remained in use until the seventeenth century, surviving in hundreds of manuscripts and hundreds of printed editions.

    Useful Gardens

    The history and structure of gardens hold endless surprises and fascinating connections withother disciplines. Originally created as a natural but immutable place offering protection andshelter, gardens have evolved from the hortus conclusus to a place of fantastic architecture,celebrations and wonder. Despite the aesthetic development that was added to the symbolic oneof the medieval tradition, the garden never completely lost its medicinal and practical function,featuring areas dedicated to fruit trees, greenhouses reserved for exotic crops or plants whosemedicinal or dyeing properties were well known

    “Scientiae”: Disciplines of Knowing in the Early Modern World

    Building on Scientiae’s interdisciplinary legacy, and its study of the production and circulation of knowledge, we will underscore the interconnectedness of regions, periods, cultures, and material and intellectual traditions in the period between 1400 and 1800. Although centred around the emergence of modern natural science, Scientiae is intended for scholars working in any area of early-modern intellectual culture. The Scientiae network encompasses the long Renaissance period and seeks to integrate historiographical reflection into an approach that, since its creation, has been firmly rooted in epistemology and the history of science, as well as intellectual history, and the practice of knowledge in dialogue.

    The City as a Site and Object of Knowledge-Making in the Early Modern Period

    EAHN26 Session_Building Science

    The session aims to shed light on the city as a contact zone and as a subject and object of making, circulating, implementing, and institutionalising knowledge in the early modern period. We are interested in gaining insights into the reciprocal process that both practically and theoretically shapes the city and situates architecture within a broader field of knowledge-making.

    Renaissance in Gold

    Knowledge, Symbolics and Uses of a Versatile Material in Europe (1450-1550)

    This call for papers targets a wide range of disciplinary fields (e.g. history, art history, heritage science, literature, philosophy). This peer-reviewed edited volume aims to understand the uses and meanings of Gold as it pervades all areas of European societies, on a methodologically restricted time-frame (1450-1550). It intends to move beyond traditional research, so as to map out the social and cultural dynamics of this precious and versatile material in Renaissance Europe.

    Interactions interespèces dans les arts visuels (1550-1914). Collaborations, expérimentations, oppositions

    Ce colloque propose d’étudier la façon dont les artistes ont non seulement observé les animaux, ont vécu avec eux pour certains, mais leur ont également parfois attribué une agentivité. L’idée d’une relation active entre l’artiste et l’animal soulève des questions fondamentales sur le rôle des bêtes dans la production artistique. L’analyse des pratiques artistiques permet de questionner la nature du lien entre humains et non-humains, et de voir comment, dans certaines œuvres, l’animal peut être perçu comme un protagoniste capable de résister aux tentatives de réification. Loin d'être un simple reflet des rapports de pouvoir entre humains et animaux, la création artistique devient ainsi un lieu de négociation, voire de contestation, de ces rapports.

    Prisons and Prisoners in the History and Sociology of Knowledge (17th-20th century)

    The history of prisons is “a history of constant reform.” Since at least the beginning of the eighteenth century, these repeated transformations (desired or achieved) (Morris, Rothman, 1995, vii) have been accompanied by the production of knowledge about architecture, physical constraints on the body, gender segregation, violence, sexual practices, proximity or, conversely, “punitive” or “redemptive” isolation. Yet very little research has focused specifically on this knowledge and even less, if any, has attempted to integrate it into the history of knowledge in general, and more specifically into the history of (social) science and statistics. Against the background of this research gap, this conference proposes to take knowledge about prisons and prisoners as an object of study. Our general question is: how did prisons and prisoners contribute to the history and sociology of knowledge and science?

    Politics of the Enlightenment - 8 positions as Research Associate

    Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (65 %, 48 months)

    Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg, Interdisciplinary Centre for European Enlightenment Studies, offers 8 temporary positions as part of the “Politics of the Enlightenment” Research Training Group, funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2029 (48 months), as a Research Associate (m-f-d) Part time (65%). The Research Training Group (RTG) examines the politics of the Enlightenment from the 18th century to today. Its approach is twofold: firstly, it asks – in terms of the genitivus subjectivus – how both the historical Enlightenment of the 18th century and also later Enlightenment enterprises think and act in a political sense. Secondly, it questions – in terms of the genitivus objectivus – how the conception of Enlightenment is constructed and perpetually renewed through political aims and decisions: How does the Enlightenment shape politics? And how do politics shape the Enlightenment?

    A Different Perspective for the Atlantic Routes

    Impressions and Exchanges in Transoceanic Journeys from the 16th to the 19th Century

    After more than two years of a preparation that have been careful and laborious, but slowed down and hindered several times by the difficulties that have arisen due to the global pandemic, this project finally gets underway. It intends to go back once more to questioning issues that already count important in-depth studies, like the transoceanic relations between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries, but also has the ambition of wanting to integrate the results already obtained with new reflections and achievements, and above all with a different point of view.

    Meta, Matrix, Mater. Renaissance Metaphors of the Matrix

    The female sex has become the core of an increasing number of early modern studies since the rise of a gender-sensitive feminist viewpoint in art history. Many have dealt with images of a hairless and polished vulva, sometimes ostensibly eroticized. Pending this approach, the 2022 CHAR Workshop, Meta, Matrix, Mater. Renaissance Metaphors of the Matrix, wishes to re-explore the imaginary of the female sex from within and focus on the metaphors of the matrix in images and material culture in the Renaissance.

    Styles and Method in the Early-Modern and the Modern Period

    This seminar explores the hypothesis that a distinctive link between style and ways of thinking was formed between the early modern and the modern periods – one that not only played a specific role in the emergence of philology as a model for knowledge but also in discussions of scientific method.

    Colloque - Histoire

    Language in the Global History of Knowledge

    This workshop discusses various ways in which language and the study of language figured in the global history of knowledge, from the 16th to the early 20th century. In the expanding network of mercantile, missionary, and colonial relations, language was both a vessel and a barrier for the transmission of knowledge. Moreover, languages became an object of knowledge and theory-formation in themselves, in ways that diverged from how their speakers knew their language and their world. Our aim is to address the interrelations between these different kinds of knowledge. The emergence of the language sciences has to be understood both in relation to traditions of textual scholarship within different cultures, and to developments in other fields of science (broadly understood).
