Locating the Lost Archive of Arab Cinema
This special issue asks how our histories of Arab cinema might change if we tackle the problem of Arab cinema’s lost archive(s). From most of the films made in Lebanon prior to 1975 to the cinemas of Iraq, Yemen, Palestine, Sudan, and elsewhere, there are many reasons why films and their histories may have been lost to current memory. From structural and environmental issues and the lack of investment in proper storage facilities and maintenance.

Who named the gods? Utterers, addressers, ritual agents
The ERC MAP Seminar “The Names of the Gods! 5: Who named the gods? Utterers, addressers, ritual agents” pursues the investigation on the systems of naming of the divine. This year, it focuses on the human agents in the process of naming the divine, whether they are producers of a discourse on the deities, addressers in a communication with the deities, or even experts in charge of a ritual knowledge. What agency do men and women exercise in the production of a specific denomination of the divine? How can we question their choices, their anchoring in a tradition or their innovation strategies?

From Tangiers to Samarkand: the East to female travellers in the 19th century
Another definition of otherness?
Cet atelier souhaite déplacer la question sur l’orientalisme, souvent lu au masculin, pour se demander s’il existe un orientalisme féminin, construit à la même époque, par les voyageuses, les archéologues et les ethnologues femmes qui ont aussi visité ces lointaines contrées et dont les écrits moins connus, moins cités et surtout, beaucoup moins étudiés, offriraient peut-être un regard différent sur cette altérité particulière. Les voyageuses occidentales qui sont elles-mêmes en périphérie du centre constitué par les auteurs de sexe masculin détiendraient-elles une représentation de l’Orient plus libre ? Les schémas narratifs par lesquels se dit l’altérité orientale varient-ils significativement en fonction des genres ? Si oui, pourquoi et comment ?
