  Chinese anthropology in France - conference

  Envisagé comme une vitrine des recherches en anthropologie et en ethnologie de la Chine en langue française, ce colloque a pour objet de réunir la communauté en plein essor des anthropologues français et francophones spécialistes du monde chinois. Il est ouvert à l'ensemble des spécialistes du monde chinois (Taïwan et diasporas inclus) dont les recherches, basées sur des enquêtes de terrain menées dans la longue durée, s’inscrivent pleinement dans une démarche anthropologique. En effet, l’objectif de cette rencontre est avant tout disciplinaire, et vise à mettre en avant l'apport de l'anthropologie francophone sur le monde chinois.

  Art History for Artists: Interactions Between Scholarly Discourse and Artistic Practice in the 19th Century

  The development of art history as a discipline during the 19^th century has been variously associated with the politics of national identity, the needs of a growing bourgeois public in search of cultural capital, or of an expanding art market. However, the role of art training, and art practitioners themselves in the shaping of the discipline remains unexamined. Courses in art history had been systematically introduced in the curricula of art and architecture academies since the late 18^th century, and spaces of art education count among the first institutional homes of the discipline, well before the establishment of autonomous university chairs. This conference aims to explore the interactions and productive tensions between art practice and art scholarship in the 19^th century.

  The Circle of Money

  Practices, Politics, and Policy in Premodern Societies (6th-17th Centuries)

  Money is at once elusive and concrete. As a mode of economic exchange it exists within a relatively fixed playing field, with clearly delineated boundaries of benefits and costs. However, poor handling, bad advice, or even a bad turn at a game of chance can swallow money up in one fell swoop. The workshop will investigate this wide array of pre-capitalist, western and non-western contexts from the English Isles, Flanders, France, Germany, Italy, and China between the Middle Ages and Early Modern times.
