  New research on the History of Chinese gardens and landscapes

  Organised by Dr Jan Woudstra in conjunction with the Gardens Trust, the event will look at new discoveries in the field from both professionals and post-graduate students from around the world. Dr Alison Hardie will introduce the conference and outline the importance that Maggie Keswick’s 1978 book The Chinese Garden, History Art and Architecture has played in the subject. It is a unique opportunity to hear speakers from UK and International institutions to present their new research in the field. Talks will cover subjects as wide-ranging as Jesuit water landscapes, gardens as museums, Feng Shui symbolism and botanical watercolours.

  Première conférence multidisciplinaire sur l’histoire naturelle et culturelle du Wadi Ramm

  The area of Wadi Rum in Southern Jordan was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List as a mixed natural and cultural site in June 2011. Scholars involved in the the preparation of the nomination file came to realise that scientific knowledge about the broader Wadi Rum area is scarce and does not do justice to the importance of the site, be it its natural or cultural dimensions. It also became apparent that there is a need to systematise research and documentation efforts, and provide technical advices to the relevant authorities for the monitoring and conservation of the natural and cultural heritage of the site. Man and the Desert: the First Multidisciplinary Conference on the Natural and Cultural History of Wadi Rum is expected to be the first of a series of conferences on the interactions between human communities and arid environments to take place every two years in Wadi Rum.

  Colloque de Cerisy : peurs et plaisirs de l'eau, d'hier à demain

  Depuis les temps anciens et dans les diverses civilisations, les rapports des hommes avec l’eau sont ambivalents et suscitent toutes sortes de peurs et de plaisirs. Alors que l’eau devient un enjeu planétaire majeur, il faut éviter, soit d’en faire un pur objet de curiosité intellectuelle, soit de la réduire à ses exclusifs aspects utilitaires. C’est la raison pour laquelle, se démarquant des congrès qui traitent de l’eau sous le seul angle technique, ce colloque envisage une approche prospective capable d’enrichir l’intelligence collective qu’exige sa gestion (oscillant entre partage et rivalité, privée et publique, centrale et locale) en n’oubliant ni nos cultures, ni nos mythes, ni nos rites, ni nos pratiques, ni nos mille façons de conjurer les peurs que nous éprouvons et d’attirer les bienfaits que nous espérons.
