    Women and social and politica changes in Arab countries

    Les mouvements sociaux qui ont secoué les pays arabes, depuis 2011, n’ont cessé d’interpeler les chercheurs sur les enjeux et les perspectives liés aux changements survenus sur les plans politique et social. Leur impact, sur les rapports sociaux de genre et les représentations qui les sous-tendent, mérite d’être analysé. En effet, les femmes des pays arabes sont particulièrement touchées par ces changements et cela est visible à travers leur présence active dans les mouvements sociaux. Elles jouent un rôle relativement important comme vectrices de modernisation dans la société. Le renversement de certains régimes n’aurait pas été possible sans l’insurrection des masses urbaines et dont la mobilisation des femmes a été un facteur important. Défiant certains tabous et stéréotypes, elles se sont imposées comme actrices des « révolutions arabes », non seulement en prenant part à la contestation, mais et en la nourrissant.

    Art History for Artists: Interactions Between Scholarly Discourse and Artistic Practice in the 19th Century

    The development of art history as a discipline during the 19th century has been variously associated with the politics of national identity, the needs of a growing bourgeois public in search of cultural capital, or of an expanding art market. However, the role of art training, and art practitioners themselves in the shaping of the discipline remains unexamined. Courses in art history had been systematically introduced in the curricula of art and architecture academies since the late 18th century, and spaces of art education count among the first institutional homes of the discipline, well before the establishment of autonomous university chairs. This conference aims to explore the interactions and productive tensions between art practice and art scholarship in the 19th century.

    The Bible in Arabic in the 19th century: the issues for Christianity ad Islam in the Near East since 1865

    La publication en 1865 de la traduction complète de la Bible en arabe à Beyrouth, accompagnée de sa large diffusion, sous l’égide des missionnaires de l’American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM) avec le concours de savants du Liban, reste une étape charnière de l’histoire religieuse et intellectuelle du Proche Orient. Les conséquences de cette traduction dépassent outre, en effet, le champ du religieux et du théologique pour atteindre l’Homme et son rôle dans la société : le politique au sens large. Que cette traduction ait été menée à bonne fin peut alors être perçu comme le signe d’une société en évolution, d’autant plus que des musulmans ont été appelés à y collaborer aux côtés de chrétiens.

    Circulation and Scientific Institutions

    The Americas, Western Europe, South Asia (1750s-1914)

    While historians should take into account the movements in space that constantly transform sciences, they should not lose sight of the specific locations dedicated to the daily work of scientists. In scientific facilities (museums, laboratories, hospitals, etc.), modern scientists use their research instruments, meet with members of their networks, teach, and interact with various actors from outside of their scientific community. Participants in this symposium will seek how to write the history of this dynamic between circulation and institutions of science.

    History and archaeology: what to do in the 19th century?

    La Revue d’histoire du XIXe siècle souhaite mettre en lumière à la fois les conditions de dialogue entre archéologues et historiens sur des « territoires » du XIXe siècle et les apports croisés que ces deux disciplines peuvent apporter à notre connaissance du XIXe siècle en essayant de sortir de la compétition ancienne héritée de la Guerre Froide entre l’Occident et le bloc de l’Est et en élargissant les thématiques.

    Art history for artists: interactions between scholarly discourse and artistic practice in the 19th century

    The conference seeks to examine the shaping of art history as a discipline during the 19th century in relation to artistic training and exchanges between artists and scholars. The development of art history has been associated with an array of socio-political and economic factors such as the formation of a bourgeois public, the politics of national identity and state legitimacy or the needs of an expanding art market. This conference aspires to explore yet another, less studied dimension: the extent to which the historical study of art was also rooted in an intention to inform contemporary artistic production.

    Ouvert en 2000, le séminaire de la Sorbonne poursuit deux objectifs : étudier l’histoire, longtemps négligée par les chercheurs, de la Gendarmerie, une force militaire et policière originale, rurale et urbaine, et une composante du système de défense ; élargir les travaux à la Police nationale et aux autres forces (civiles ou militaires, publiques ou privées, professionnelles ou informelles), qui participent à la sécurité, intérieure et extérieure, afin de contribuer au décloisonnement des recherches et à une meilleure compréhension de l’histoire de la sécurité, en France et à l’étranger.
