Displacements and spatial transformations of religion in the English-speaking world
The experience of migrating, moving away from familiar places—sometimes against one’s will—and relocating in foreign territories is deeply ingrained in the spiritual and historical legacy of monotheistic traditions. The Reformation, the colonial era and the contemporary globalized world have greatly amplified the phenomena of transplantation and mass migrations; in turn these uprootings have deeply transformed the religious geography of the English-speaking world. This two-day conference aims to explore the multiple dimensions of the spatial transformations of religion not only in the light of the experience of diasporas and other exiled or migrating religious minorities, but also from the point of view of merchants, travellers, missionaries, settlers, soldiers, etc.

Topographical approaches to religion
L’étude des pratiques et des cultes à partir de leur inscription dans l’espace prend place dans un renouvellement de l’histoire des religions. Cette rencontre scientifique internationale fait le point sur les apports de l’analyse topographique dans l’étude des faits religieux depuis l’époque archaïque jusqu’à la fin de l’Antiquité tardive, couvrant ainsi plus de mille ans d’histoire, dans un esprit de comparaison entre les différentes périodes, les différentes aires géographiques du monde méditerranéen et les différentes méthodes.
