  Call for papers - Middle Ages

  The Classics in the Pulpit. Ancient Literature and Preaching in the Middle Ages

  The aim of the conference is to shed new light on this both striking and irritating practice. Papers (25 min) can deal with topics such as the reasons and occasions for the use of the classics in preaching, the hermeneutic and literary strategies applied in order to adapt pagan mythology to homiletic needs, the social and educational background of preachers and their audiences, the connections of classicizing sermons with other fields of literature such as vernacular poetry, or the discourse they provoked within the clerical milieu. Applications from all relevant disciplines (e.g. history, literature, theology, philosophy) are welcome.

  Women and religions in the Mediterranean

  Mediterranean dialogues about priests

  L’objectif du séminaire « Femmes et religions en Méditerranée » est de s’intéresser à la manière dont les femmes des deux rives de la Méditerranée ont vécu dans le passé, et vivent et interagissent actuellement, dans un espace social, culturel et religieux particulier. L’espace méditerranéen est en effet marqué depuis des siècles par la concurrence de plusieurs traditions religieuses qui partagent - entre autres - une même culture fondatrice apparue dans un contexte antique, médiéval (ou même moderne), de nature résolument patriarcale.
