Conference, symposium - History
In partibus fidelium. Missions in the Levant and knowledge of Christian Asia (19th-21st centuries)
Inaugural conference of the MisSMO conference: Ecole française de Rome (EFR), Fondazione per le scienze religiose Giovanni XXIII (Fscire), Institut français d’archéologie orientale (Ifao), Institut français d’études anatoliennes (IFEA), Institut français du Proche-Orient (Ifpo), Leiden University, Università di Padova.
Ce colloque international se penchera sur l’assimilation en Europe de connaissances relatives aux cultures chrétiennes-orientales et sur le rôle que les missions ont joué dans ce processus. Ces connaissances nouvelles sont fondées en grande partie sur les travaux menés sur le terrain, au Moyen-Orient, en particuliersur les manuscrits conservés dans les monastères et les patriarcats, et plus généralement sur le patrimoine littéraire, linguistique, archéologique, cartographique et musicologique, des communautés chrétiennes installées.

Il rapporto Chiesa e società nelle aree europee degli Imperi di Spagna e Portogallo e nell’America spagnola e portoghese intende gettare uno sguardo sullo sviluppo e sulle caratteristiche di questo variegato rapporto tanto nel Vecchio quanto nel Nuovo mondo. Particolare attenzione sarà attribuita alle fonti documentarie inedite o poco studiate in grado di aiutarci ad aprire nuovi percorsi di ricerca per capire la funzione pastorale ed evangelizzatrice della Chiesa, ma anche le luci e le ombre di un clero non sempre orientato al bene dei poveri. Sarà importante analizzare come la Chiesa, attraverso le sue strutture, si sia organizzata e radicata nella società sia in Europa sia in America Latina.

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.

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.

Border towns and the resilience of frontiers in Early Modern cities
The session welcomes contributions that deal with questions of shifting borders and how these shifts impacted the political, social, economic or religious organization of a given city or cities in Europe. Papers may focus on questions of practice, concerning the resilience of local political elites and administrations or the local population. They may also deal with the contemporary considerations to change the space of both cities and states, political agendas, procedures to implement them and the 'instruments' to control these implementations.

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).

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 ?
