  “The Names of the Gods!”

  Exploring the potentials of the name in images, in narratives

  The ERC MAP Seminar “The Names of the Gods! 4: Exploring the potentials of the name in images, in narratives” pursues the investigation on the systems of naming of the divine. By focusing on names, images and narratives, we will look for connections but also discrepancies, in order to highlight, from duly selected cases or files, the specifications of the different languages used to unfold the potentials of the divine names. In the spirit of the MAP project, we will pay special attention to the links that the names, the images and the narratives convey.

  Meaning in sacred ancient space

  La journée d’étude « Sens dans l’espace sacré antique » vise à explorer l’univers sensoriel des lieux de culte antiques – temples, sanctuaires, chapelles, tombes, … etc. – dans lesquels les hommes entraient en contact avec les dieux lors de rituels ou de cérémonies qui stimulaient les perceptions sensorielles des participants, sphères humaine et divine confondues.

  Long before sexuality - erotic experience in ancient Greece

  L’expérience érotique en Grèce ancienne

  Au moment où Michel Foucault distinguait les aphrodisia grecs de la chair chrétienne et de la « bonne sexualité » contemporaine, plusieurs spécialistes de l’Antiquité, aux États-Unis et en France, se réunissaient pour mettre au jour l’ampleur des relations, des espaces et des pratiques poétiques et iconographiques placées sous le signe d’erôs. Presque trente ans plus tard, la traduction de l'ouvrage Before Sexuality. The Construction of Erotic Experience in the Ancient Greek World nous offre la réédition de ce dialogue transatlantique. Les tables rondes de la journée du 25 mai accueilleront les auteur-e-s, les éditeurs, des psychanalystes et des chercheur-e-s qui ont trouvé dans cet ouvrage des pistes pour leurs propres travaux, maintenant. Que nous réserve, au XXI^e siècle, ce nouveau voyage en terre d’erôs ?

  Seminar - History

  ERC MAP Seminar « Noms de dieux ! »

  3: Texts, images and contexts of use (January-June 2019)

  The ERC MAP Seminar « Noms de dieux ! » 3: “Texts, images and contexts of use” pursues the investigation on the systems of naming of the divine by privileging two main issues: the contexts of enunciation and the imaging of "divine onomastic attributes". While the session program focuses on the Greek and Western Semitic worlds (in the broad sense), it aims to propose case studies as well as theoretical proposals. Dossiers will be presented dealing in particular with questions related to translation strategies, proper names, the plurality of the divine, interactions between names and images, in various contexts of use: dedications, curses, oaths, hymns and other forms of address.
