Imagined Identities and Communities in the Late Middle Ages

On December 9 and 10 of this year, the “Cultures i Societats de l'Edat Mitjana” (CiSEM) research group, led by Dr. Antoni Furió, professor of medieval history at the University of Valencia, will hold a conference with the title: Imagined Identities and Imagined Communities in the Late Middle Ages. Far from being strictly contemporary creations, nations, the most elaborated product of imagined communities, had their relevance throughout the medieval centuries. The most recent historiography has tried to establish the mechanisms that contributed to building this type of imaginary in which, according to some anthropologists, sociologists and political scientists, collective identities are taking an increasingly prominent role in international geopolitics. For this reason, this process is presented as a great opportunity to discuss the most recent historiographical contributions, and to try to shed more light on a transcendental historical phenomenon on the evolution of human societies.

The sources of international relations between the political centres of Europe and the Mediterranean (800–1600)

Letters - Acts - Treaties

The 15^th International Congress of Diplomatics organized by the Commission internationale de diplomatique, which is being held between the 4th and 6th of October at Leipzig, studies the diplomatic characteristics of medieval and early modern charters and the related documentation being used in “international” and interreligious diplomacy. The main objective of the conference is to analyse the "international" and interreligious repertoire of types and forms of the documents as well as their regional specific characteristics. Special attention will be dedicated to the different stages of tradition and the consequences for historical interpretation focussing on the internal and external characteristics of the diplomatic documentation.

Peoples and powers in representation in the Germanic and Nordic spaces

Le traité de Kiel, signé le 14 janvier 1814, correspond à un tournant de l’histoire européenne et scandinave dans la mesure où il mit un terme au dernier conflit entre la Suède et le Danemark. À l'occasion de son bicentenaire, ce colloque propose de revenir sur les propagandes nationales et les représentations du pouvoir mises en oeuvre à travers la construction et l'utilisation de « représentations » et images du « peuple ». Il englobe la période qui va du XIII^e siècle à 1814, qui vit la stabilisation des royaumes scandinaves, la formation du sentiment d'attachement à la patrie, au souverain ou au pouvoir en place et qui s'acheva avec l'émergence des nationalismes.

De la mer du Nord à la mer Baltique

Contacts, communications, commerce au Moyen Âge

Cette rencontre prendra la forme d'un atelier de jeunes chercheurs (doctorants et docteurs récents), archéologues et historiens des textes, originaires de plusieurs pays de l’Europe du Nord. Des participants plus confirmés apporteront à cet atelier leur expertise scientifique et permettront d’alterner et de confronter les interventions de jeunes chercheurs et de chercheurs plus expérimentés. Les régions des mers du Nord et Baltique au Moyen Âge ont plusieurs points en commun : zones de contacts, elles ont permis des échanges entre des cultures et des peuples très différents. Au cours de l'atelier, une attention particulière sera portée aux types de contacts et aux modes de communications interculturelle.
