  Rebels, protestors and innovation: the ancient figures of transgression

  Deuxième journée d'étude du laboratoire junior Tantale

  Les figures antiques de rebelles, de contestataires, de révoltés abondent, aussi bien dans le champ de l’imaginaire mythologique et littéraire que dans le champ historique et leur présence demeure souvent vivace dans les sociétés contemporaines : les mythologies, les religions, les tragédies regorgent de figures devenues les archétypes de l’infraction absolue, et leurs fantômes ne cessent de hanter les mémoires occidentales...

  “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.

  Places of worship, places of knowledge

  Dans nos sociétés modernes occidentales, les savoirs intellectuels sont majoritairement produits et diffusés dans des lieux de savoirs laïques (universités et laboratoires de recherche, écoles publiques, bibliothèques municipales, musées…). Pourtant, dans de nombreuses cultures, anciennes comme contemporaines, les lieux de culte constituent des lieux de savoir privilégiés, que ce soit parce qu’ils sont fréquentés par des individus lettrés ou parce qu’ils constituent eux-mêmes des centres de diffusion voire de production des savoirs. L’ambition de cette journée sera donc de s’interroger sur les rapports particuliers entre lieux de culte et lieux de savoir dans différentes civilisations, à travers une approche comparatiste.

  “Guest researchers” - Project ERC Mapping Ancient Polytheisms

  Over the next three years, the ERC Advanced Grant MAP 741182 project has budgetary support available in order to invite researchers. These stays can be from 2 to 4 months per researcher, with the exclusion of the months of July and August (due to the fact that the university is closed for a large part of the summer). Guest researchers will work within the team, exchanging therein and participating in the improvement of the databases. Guest researchers will equally be requested to take part in MAP scientific activities (seminars, workshops, conferences…). The position of guest researcher and this call for applications is open to everyone, of French or foreign nationality, with a Doctorate Degree (or an equivalent degree) wherein the competence and project are deemed to be of interest for the MAP project.

  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.

Son but est d’appréhender la diversité des recours patristiques à l'Ecriture : exégèse spirituelle des commentaires, argumentation des traités apologétiques, réflexions philologiques sur le texte biblique et sa transmission, etc.
