    Conference, symposium - Middle Ages

    Women and Violence in the Late Medieval Mediterranean, ca. 1100-1500

    A two-days international conference

    The last decades have witnessed an increased interest in research on the relationship between women and violence in the Middle Ages, with new works both on female criminality and on women as victims of violence. The contributions of gender theory and feminist criminology have renewed the approached used in this type of research. Nevertheless, many facets of the complex relationship between women and violence in medieval times still await to be explored in depth. This conference aims to understand how far the roots of modern assumptions concerning women and violence may be found in the late medieval Mediterranean, a context of intense cultural elaboration and exchange which many scholars have indicated as the cradle of modern judicial culture. While dialogue across the Mediterranean was constant in the late Middle Ages, occasions for comparative discussion remain rare for modern-day scholars, to the detriment of a deeper understanding of the complexity of many issues. Thus, we encourage specialists of different areas across the Mediterranean (Western Europe, Byzantium, and the Islamic world) to contribute to the discussion. What were the main differences and similarities? How did these change through time? What were the causes for change? Were coexisting assumptions linking femininity and violence conflicting or collaborating?

    Actions, objects, relations: an interdisciplinary perspective

    Cet atelier doctoral vise à dégager des pistes pour repenser la citoyenneté en Méditerranée, en désincrustant celle-ci des essentialisations culturelles, des épistémès disciplinaires, et des traditions historiographiques nationales. Il part d’une définition large de la citoyenneté, qui ne se restreint pas à l’obtention d’un statut conditionnant l’exercice de droits politiques, mais qui prend en compte les processus de construction des droits d’accès aux ressources locales (telles que le travail, le logement, l’assistance etc.). En adoptant une perspective interdisciplinaire, ce projet veut faire dialoguer, à partir de terrains géographiques et d’époques différentes, des conditions d’affirmation citoyenne formalisées par l’inégal droit d’accès aux ressources locales.
