    Giocare tra medioevo ed età moderna. Modelli etici ed estetici per l’Europa

    Des études récentes sur l’histoire de la « ludicità » dans l’espace européen ont montré dans quelle mesure « le jouer » en tant qu’acte de parole et d’image représente un observatoire privilégiée permettant de s’interroger sur des questions primordiales dont la portée intellectuelle, politique et sociale a été largement sous-estimée par les historiens. Cette rencontre se propose de fournir un parcours historiographique et une nouvelle interprétation critique de la culture éthique du jeu comme forme et norme du vivre social dans l’histoire de l’Europe entre Moyen Âge et modernité (XIVe-XVIIe siècle).

    Mobilities and European rebel itineraries in the modern era

    Cette rencontre souhaite envisager la désobéissance au travers des acteurs. Les histoires de vies qui seront abordées ont pour objet de rendre compte des actions, des choix, des hésitations et des engagements marquant l’existence d’individus en rupture avec les autorités de leur temps. Leurs parcours seront retenus pour la diversité des situations et des itinéraires qu’ils révèlent, pour ce qu’ils nous dévoilent de l’insertion de rebelles dans des réseaux sociaux et politiques, ainsi que pour les formes de rivalités et de solidarités, occasionnelles ou durables, dont ils rendent possible l’étude.

    Policing foreigners in European cities during the long eighteenth-century

    Cette session accueille les propositions de communication qui s'intéressent à la manière dont les « étrangers » sont appréhendés par les polices urbaines en Europe, dans un XVIIIe siècle entendu largement, des années 1670-1680 aux premières décennies du XIXe siècle. Les communications peuvent porter sur la définition des « étrangers » et leur statut, l'apparition de catégories nationales, les pratiques policières et les interactions entre police et étrangers dans l'espace urbain, les transformations policières face aux étrangers, les interactions entre les pratiques locales et les politiques nationales. Nous souhaitons encourager à l'occasion de cette rencontre les comparaisons européennes.

    Constructing Kurgans

    Burial mounds and funerary customs in the Caucasus, Northwestern Iran and Eastern Anatolia during the Bronze and Iron Age

    The tradition of burying the dead in burial mounds (kurgans), usually consisting of a funerary chamber limited by stone or brickslabs and covered by dirt and gravel, started in the fourth millennium BCE in the northern Caucasus and then spread south to the rest of the Caucasus regions, eastern Anatolia and northwestern Iran during the Bronze Age and Iron Age. The spread of the kurgan tradition, as well as the territorial, political, social, and cultural values embedded in their construction and their symbolic relation to the surrounding landscape are under debate. The workshop aims to examine chronological issues, cultural dynamics at inter-regional scale, rituals and burial patterns related to these funerary structures. The beliefs and ideologies that possibly connected the "kurgan people" over such a wide geographical area, as well as past and present theoretical frameworks, will also be discussed.

    Africa narrates itself: media, opinions, influential figures

    These days communication and information are characterized by immediacy, speed, and interactivity. Facebook and Instagram accounts, YouTube channels, and blogs transmit a perpetual flow of information, shared videos, pictures, and other content which creates networks and incentivizes sharing in a constantly evolving language. Contemporary mass media therefore ensures that, today more than ever, people in African countries are at the same time autonomous producers and users of a debate, through partly traditional, partly innovative channels, about life in Africa and African communities’ identity, with a tale that travels across the borders of individual countries and the continent itself.

    Hermeneutics of symbol, myth and “modernity of Antiquity” in Italian Literature and the Arts from the Renaissance up to the present day

    The hermeneutics of the “modernity of antiquity” is a still pioneering branch of research in Italian literature and art studies. Its aim is to discover the hidden meaning of works of literature and arts where other approaches failed or proved unsatisfactory.

    IV seminar of doctoral studies history and economy in the Mediterranean countries

    The objective of the seminar will be to understand the importance of intense credit activities at all levels of society, both in urban and rural areas over the long term, from consumer microcredit to the specific problem of the foundation of the Monti di Pietà in the various regional typologies, and to the forms of solidarity credit that, over the centuries, gave rise to more modern forms of banks.

    European Space Agency's Space History Conference

    There is more to space than rocket science. Historians, diplomats, economists, law students, political scientists and sociologists have all contributed to our understanding of the space age and its impact on our societies over the past decades. Sixty years on from the placing of the first human-made object in orbit around Earth, space is now an integral part of our daily lives. Space science and technology are projects for the whole of humankind, reaching not only outside Earth’s atmosphere, but also beyond our Solar System. While the technological and scientific challenges of working, living and travelling in space motivate students to pursue such studies, the impact of space activities on our lives on Earth, on relations between nations and organisations, and our collective recent history, provides fertile ground for students and scholars in the humanities to take up space-related subjects.

    Simbolo, mito e «modernità» dell’antico nella Letteratura italiana e nelle arti dal Rinascimento ai giorni nostri

    III congresso internazionale di studi ermeneutici

    Quello della «Modernità simbolico-mitologica dell’antico nella Letteratura italiana e nelle Arti» è un filone ermeutico interdisciplinare, che si avvale della storia delle religioni antiche e delle sue fonti come precipua chiave di decifrazione di opere sia letterarie sia artistiche di tutti i tempi: opere semanticamente oscure ed enigmatiche perché – insospettabilmente per la gran parte dei lettori – sono state concepite dai rispetivi autori in prospettiva cripto-pagana, avvalendosi pertanto di concetti e di fonti prelevati dalle antiche religioni pagane, sia mediterranee sia non mediterranee, o dalle eresie del cristianesimo e delle altre religioni (argomenti, questi, nel complesso di norma poco conosciuti sia dai letterati sia dagli studiosi di discipline artistiche).

    Scrivere il/in confino

    Scritture femminili del Novecento Europeo

    In un momento in cui i flussi migratori ci interpellano sempre più e in un’ottica sempre meno nazionale e sempre più europea, e in cui la categoria di frontiera è in via di profonda ridefinizione, il pensiero di coloro che hanno conosciuto/raccontato l’esilio è un supporto prezioso alle nostre riflessioni più attuali. I Club Soroptimist International di Messina e di Spadafora Gallo-Niceto organizzano un Convegno sulla Letteratura femminile del Novecento Europeo sul tema dell’Esilio. Gli interventi che si succederanno andranno ad abbracciare: l’esperienza esistenziale di autrici di testi letterari di qualsiasi genere che hanno vissuto in prima personale la fuga e il confino, attraverso i loro scritti personali e autobiografici; le storie di finzione (romanzi, poesie, racconti, radiodrammi, …) pubblicate da autrici che hanno affrontato tali tematiche senza per questo aver vissuto necessariamente sulla propria pelle l’erranza e l’estradizione.

    The lexicalisation of commercial onomastics. Creation, diffusion and integration

    Ce colloque se propose de s’interroger sur les processus de lexicalisation des noms de marque et de produit, sur leurs motivations, ainsi que sur la complexité de leur encadrement sémantique. Dans cette perspective, il entend proposer une réflexion sur la morphologie et sur la sémantique des noms de marques et de produit en tenant compte du système morphosémantique de la langue française, forcément en relation avec d’autres langues, tout aussi bien que d’autres éléments structuraux préexistants.

    Transitions in the history of energy: the current state of research and new perspectives

    La transition est aujourd’hui un paradigme dominant dans l’énoncé des politiques publiques et des stratégies privées liées à l’énergie. Acteurs publics, entreprises, associations, mais aussi chercheurs s'inscrivent chaque jour davantage dans l'horizon d'une transition énergétique à mener et à penser comme une transformation graduelle des moyens de production et des usages. Dans ce contexte, les historiens sont interpelés sur la question des transitions énergétiques passées : y a-t-il eu des transitions énergétiques dans le passé, et si oui que nous apprennent-elles qui pourrait être utile au présent ?
