  Feminists and their archives (1968-2018)

  Militantism, memory and research

  The fiftieth anniversary of May and June 1968 will be the occasion for numerous commemorations of the event, but also more generally on the "1968 years", bounded, according to Philippe Artières and Michelle Zancarini-Fournel by the two dates of 1962 and 1981. During that period, feminist movements in France and other occidental countries experienced a renewal through activism, intense cultural production and high visibility in the public sphere and the media. To write the history of such feminist mobilizations and to question their posterity, one needs to engage with the issue of archives, written and oral, private as well as institutional, collective as well as individual, preserved or destroyed. This symposium aims to initiate a wide-ranging reflection on the constitution, conservation and use of feminist archives and to promote an interdisciplinary and international dialogue.

This international and multidisciplinary colloquium seeks to reevaluate the contribution of the South Side and the West Side to the definition and evolution of the African-American identity from the beginning of the XX^th Century until the contemporary moment.

  The history of art in the field of the humanities and social sciences

  Interdisciplinary dialogue around the political and ideological issues of the manufacture of discourse

  Cette journée d'étude, qui s'adresse à de jeunes chercheurs, portera sur l'histoire de l'art à la croisée des disciplines depuis le début des années 2000 (histoire sociale ou culturelle, anthropologie, sociologie, etc.). L'objectif est d’appréhender la dimension politique inhérente aux discours historiques actuels, que cet aspect soit explicité ou non par les chercheurs ou les commissaires d’expositions. Il ne s’agira pas de plaquer ou de reproduire le discours politique de l’« engagement » sur les sciences humaines, ni de « dévoiler » les tendances politiques de la recherche actuelle. Bien davantage, nous souhaitons discuter, autour d’études de cas précises sur des publications, des expositions de ces dernières années, de la nécessité – ou non – pour chacun de formuler une réflexion critique sur sa propre pratique scientifique.

  Male bonds in nineteenth-century art

  Male Bonds is a two-day international conference that aims to explore the place of male bonds in nineteenth-century artistic practice and visual arts. The conference invites participants to reflect on the ways in which changing notions of masculinity and male sexuality impacted forms of sociability between men in the artistic scene of the long nineteenth century. In so doing, it seeks to build a bridge between traditional art-historical scholarship and the fields of gender and gay and lesbian studies.
