Historical narrative between the East and West

12th-15th centuries

Espace privilégié d’échanges et de circulation, la Méditerranée médiévale est le théâtre de rencontres entre chrétiens d’Orient et d’Occident. Celles-ci constituent un vecteur prioritaire de transmission des savoirs et des connaissances et contribuent à façonner de nouvelles représentations tant sur le plan ecclésiologique que sur le plan territorial ou historique. Les conditions de production de textes historiques, leur circulation, leurs usages et l’autorité qui leur est conférée, permettent alors d’examiner comment Latins et Orientaux tiennent compte de l’altérité interne ou externe à la chrétienté : comment intégrer l’Autre à l’histoire de la chrétienté dans son ensemble ? Comment, entre Occident et Orient, l’histoire s’écrit-elle ? Que révèle-t-elle de la circulation des textes, des idées et des représentations entre les deux rives de la Méditerranée ? Comment, par qui et à quelles fins l’histoire ainsi construite est-elle utilisée ? La quête des origines, le plus souvent destinée à fonder une autorité, peut ainsi être mise au service tantôt d’une réflexion critique sur la situation présente, tantôt d’une stratégie de légitimation d’une entreprise présente ou à venir.

Images and Liturgy in Portugal in the Middle Age

The seminar Images and Liturgy in Portugal in the Middle Age, organized by the CEAACP Multidisciplinary Group Study in Arts (University of Coimbra), in partnership with the Association of Portuguese Archaeologists / Carmo Archaeological Museum, is part of the set of project initiatives of Carla Varela Fernandes’ Postdoc (Sculptures of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries in collections of Portuguese museums. An imperative approach to a broader knowledge of the scientific reality). It aims the presentation and discussion of recent studies and reflections on works of Romanic and Gothic art existing in Portugal. It is intended to address the medieval images as part of the liturgical rituals and the buildings they were designed for. On the other hand, we’ll try to provide advances in the knowledge on the means as an iconographic innovation or aesthetic generated at a given location "moves" and appears in other geographies, serving similar purposes.

Call for papers - Representation

“People” and Power(s) in Representation

Nordic and Germanic Space

The Kiel Treaty, signed on 14 January 1814, marks a milestone in European and Scandinavian history as it ended armed conflicts between the realms of Sweden and Denmark. In order to celebrate its 200th anniversary, this conference will focus on national propaganda and representations of power through the representation of the people. The period under study spans from the 14^th century to 1814. It includes the Scandinavian realms’ stabilization as well as the emergence of a national sentiment centered on the homeland, the ruler or the reigning power and ends with the emergence of nationalism in Europe.
