During the final talks of the fruitful international conference named “body languages in comics” set up by the junior drawn sciences laboratory of the Ecole normale supérieure (ENS) in Lyon on 8th and 9th October 2014, the idea to carry on, in a more precise way, the numerous debates on the occasion of a later scientific event was mentioned. In light of this, the C3S laboratory (“culture, sport, health and society”) of the University of Bourgogne/Franche-Comté organises holding an international symposium in order to study how sport is depicted in comics. Researchers in the C3S laboratory dedicate their work to sport sciences with a theoretical and epistemological commitment marked by interdisciplinarity. According to this stance, the international conference is open to various contributions allowing to understand the representations (whether they be historical, sociological, anthropological, literary, semiotic, psychological…etc…) of sport in comics.

All Fontanarrosa: The Work of a Complete Humourist

When the Argentine Roberto Fontanarrosa passed away in 2007, a national day of mourning was declared and his funeral was attended by thousands. Although Fontanarrosa was much loved and both the man and his works have received public recognition time and again, there are very few published academic works on his œuvre to this day. This proposed anthology seeks to fill this gap by paying attention to Fontanarrosa’s work as a whole

Rewriting: logic of repetition?

III International Conference in Narratives

The third International Conference in Narratives, organized by Universidad EAFIT (Medellín, Colombia) and Università degli Studi di Padova, proposes rewriting as an object of reflection from the arts, humanities, social sciences and communication sciences. To interrogate the gesture of writing a text again, it involves accounting for an operation that, in its apparent simplicity, shows the experience of time and repetition, the recording of memory, the tension between imitation and difference, and the means of reproduction and creation. Along its relationships, objects and notions that it implies, the gesture of rewriting is exemplary and heuristic; it has become a model for understanding various phenomena and cultural practices.

Boethius revisited

The reception of his works and his influence on European literature from the Middle-Ages to the present time

With the contribution of specialists in several branches of humanities, our purpose is to bring to light some neglected or partially studied aspects of this great classical thinker and exemplary figure of scientific eclecticism, who played a great part in the universalization of knowledge. We will pay special attention to the way in which Boethius’ scientific and cultural legacy was included in the works of other European authors, and was renewed according to the feelings, anxieties and aspirations particular to every age and historical context.

Texts, territories, technologies: another extraordinary journey

6th Hispano-Luso- French conference

Ce colloque interdisciplinaire se propose d'analyser l’évolution de ces savoirs mobilisés tels que la langue, la littérature, la géographie, les sciences « dures » ou encore l’histoire. La prise en compte de ces savoirs « hétérogènes », les mécanismes de leur transmission, ainsi que le développement individualisé que ces sciences ont eu, seront au cœur de nos interrogations.

Générations dans les mondes ibérique et ibéro-américains

L’objet des discussions scientifiques du XXXVII^e congrès de la Société des hispanistes français de l'enseignement supérieur sera le concept de génération, qui fait débat pour toute la recherche entre historiens et littéraires, entre la revendication du contexte et le primat du texte dans le monde ibérique et ibéro-américain.

Poétiques et politiques du corps dans la contemporanéité

Contemporary poetics and politics of thee body

From a comparing and transversal perspective, gathering different theoretical and artistic subjects, this congress aims at opening an interdisciplinary dialog, as well as putting into play the different questions that contemporaneity asks about the body. Knowing their territorial cultural differences, each historical period produces a different concept of body and person, which is intimately connected to what goes around on the artistic, theoretical, technological, social, politic and economic fields that sustain it. From an interdisciplinary point of view, this meeting intends to propose and get on the tracks of an investigation that can favour understanding the construction of corporality in our contemporary context.

Literature and democratic transitions: case studies

Literaturas y transiciones democráticas: estudio de casos

Depuis plus d’une vingtaine d’années, la question des rapports de la littérature et de la démocratie se pose dans un contexte de renouvellement de l’intérêt pour la nature des liens qu’entretiennent la littérature et la politique, mais aussi de reconfiguration des questionnements que les sciences humaines et sociales adressent à la littérature, qu’elles la tiennent pour l’exemple déjà réalisé d’organisations cognitives et de catégorisations politiques et morales, pour un savoir social, pour une forme de connaissance ou de philosophie pratique, etc. Les transitions démocratiques intervenues depuis le milieu des années 1970 en Europe du Sud, en Amérique latine, en Asie, en Europe de l’Est à partir de 1989, et dans certains pays arabes récemment ne sont pas étrangères à ces interrogations. On se propose d’analyser précisément comment la littérature s’est trouvée mêlée à ces processus historiques, d’étudier la manière dont elle peut participer d’une logique de formulation de la démocratie.
