  Modernist Emotions

  The second international conference of the French Society for Modernist Studies

  In continuation of the society’s inaugural conference on Modernist communities, we now propose to explore the debate over emotions in the Modernist era. We hope to foster reflection and discussion that will go beyond the paradox of a passionately anti-emotional Modernism towards a reconsideration of the large extent to which Modernism attempts to channel, remotivate, and revalue the power of emotion.

  Origin-Musics

  Musical narratives, performances, and reconstructions of the past (20th-21st centuries)

  The quest to reconstruct thestyles and histories of musical genres of the past is an old preoccupation. Since the 19^th century, the orientalist imaginary contributed considerably to the notion of the existence of "origin-musics". Whether "Pharaonic", "Arab", or "Hindu", a common reference to the past, seen as prestigious and immutable, contributed to the rationalization of musical knowledge on the basis of constructed connections. The orientalist period being relatively well documented, this workshop is more focused on ways of speaking of and describing the past over the course of the 20^th century and into the 21^st.

  Powers, identity, and resistance in the visual arts in Chile, 19th-21st century

  Le nouveau colloque que nous proposons se situe dans la continuité des colloques célébrés en 2011 et 2013, puisqu’il envisage de mettre en perspective l’histoire contemporaine et les arts visuels chiliens en étendant la période jusqu’au temps présent. Ainsi, le colloque se propose de reprendre des concepts analysés lors de deux rencontres précédentes en les interrogeant, cette fois, du point de vue de la création et des arts visuels chiliens.
