  Seminar - History

  The artists' workshop

  Silences, rumours and cultural transfers (19th-21st century)

  Ce séminaire doctoral entend s’engager dans une étude historique des ateliers d’artistes de 1880 à 2020. Pratiquant une sociologie des organisations qui postule que l’atelier du créateur compose une structure en soi, fonctionnelle car réglementée par des codes énoncés ou symboliques, catégorielle puisque régie par des habitus régulant les valeurs d’échanges, agissant au singulier ou selon un système collectif quand y pénètrent, outre le « maître » :  les apprentis, les disciples, la/les muses, les modèles, les amis, les commanditaires, les collectionneurs etc., on avance que l’atelier fait office d’institution culturelle première.

  Borders in the Americas – Integration, Security and Migrations

  In the aftermath of the collapse of the Soviet Union, many analysts and experts argued that the world had reached the “end of history” [Fukuyama, 1992] and that regional and local organizations and free trade agreements (among which the European Union appeared to be a model of integration) signaled the emergence of a world without borders. Yet, thirty years later, the reality seems to be altogether different. Today, it is clear that “borders are back”. Whether these borders are challenged, violated, transcended, consolidated, or integrated, they remain necessarily at the heart of the political debate. This symposium will focus on a specific geographic area: the Americas.

  Taverns, cafés and bistrots. Places of popular sociability, from the 1750s to the 1920s

  Ce colloque international se fixe comme objectif de faire revivre ces hauts-lieux d’une culture populaire dans les sociétés européennes, méditerranéennes et nord-américaines, pour une période qui s’étend du milieu du XVIII^e siècle jusqu’aux débuts du XX^e siècle. De nombreuses questions se posent dans ce contexte, en commençant par la nature des établissements eux-mêmes et leur inscription dans la ville ou le village : que savons-nous de la topographie des cafés, tavernes, etc. (leur densité, leur rapport à l’espace religieux, sportif à la fin du XIX^e siècle…), de leur architecture et de leur décoration, et de la figure du tavernier et cafetier elle-même, susceptible de revêtir un rôle important au niveau social et politique, mais aussi économique en tant qu’entrepreneur de divertissements ?

  Frontier(s) and Frontier-zone(s) in the English-speaking world

  Call for papers

  It may be argued that any frontier is the expression of what is discontinuous, of the existence of an ‘inside’ and of an ‘outside’, in short, that a frontier is an attempt to keep the ‘other’ at bay, whatever the meaning of the term – a given geographical territory, or a specific political entity, or a different culture, or else all of these put together. These considerations are in tune with the etymological origin of the word ‘frontier’ itself, i.e. anything that helps a group of people ‘develop a united front’. Examples abound, from the so-called ‘natural’ frontier of this or that country to Brexit, to the wall that President Trump has set out to build between his own country and Mexico.
