    Translation History Matters

    1st East and West Conference on Translation Studies

    This conference aims to provide a biannual forum for East and West dialogue on Translation Studies.  This inaugural edition will be dedicated to “Translation History Matters” and welcomes contributions addressing issues related (though not circumscribed) to translation history, historiography and metahistoriography. Centred on translation understood as an intentional phenomenon of human and mostly intercultural communication, this conference aims to focus on the role played by translation in Eastern and Western cultural practices and encounters through history as well as on the role of history to understand both translation and translation studies.  By bringing together Eastern and Western views on a multitude of translation history matters, this conference aims to stress why, how and for which purposes translation history matters.

    Des possibles de la pensée

    Autour des travaux de François Jullien

    Étant conduit ainsi à circuler entre des domaines aussi divers que la morale, l’esthétique, la stratégie, les pensées de l’histoire comme de la nature et de la vie, il a en vue, par cette déconstruction menée du dehors, de détecter les parti-pris enfouis, de part et d’autre, ainsi que de faire apparaître, de cette façon, notre impensé tout en faisant se lever leurs fécondités respectives et, la désenlisant ainsi de ses atavismes, de relancer la philosophie. Ce colloque questionnera la fécondité de cette démarche originale et aventureuse qui n’a pas manqué de produire des dérangements tant dans le domaine de la philosophie que dans celui de l’orientalisme.

    The aesthetics of phantasmogoria

    Phantoms in the Far East and today

    Les fantômes comptent parmi les figures les plus marquantes de la culture chinoise, et continuent de hanter encore de nos jours la société de la Chine et de ses voisins. Ce colloque intrernational s'emploiera à ré-examiner et ré-évaluer les multiples significations qu’ont pu revêtir les revenants en Chine et Extrême-Orient. Une partie des communications portera sur la place des fantômes dans la société, synchroniquement comme diachroniquement,  tandis que l’autre étudiera le thème dans la littérature et les arts. Les communications permettront de confronter des approches venues de plusieurs disciplines : anthropologie, sociologie, histoire, sciences religieuses, littérature, études théâtrales, cinématographiques, histoire de l’art, études de genres ou littérature comparée.
