Historical Anthropology of Early Modern Protestantism

L’approche anthropologique de l’histoire du protestantisme de l’époque moderne (XVIe-XVIIIe siècle) est assez courante en Allemagne, aux Pays-Bas ou dans les pays anglo-saxons, mais elle a été peu pratiquée en France. Ce colloque international entend montrer tout l’intérêt de cette démarche, en présentant des études portant sur les pays francophones, le Saint-Empire et les Provinces-Unies, dans trois domaines : la culture matérielle ; l’espace public et l’espace privé ; le temps. L’enjeu est de renouveler l’histoire traditionnelle du protestantisme en cherchant à rendre compte des actions, des représentations, des sentiments et des émotions des réformés d’autrefois.

40th anniversary of journal Ethnologie Française

Joint Ethnologie Française/EASA conference

À l’occasion du 40e anniversaire de Ethnologie française, revue publiée par l’Institut national des Sciences humaines et sociales (CNRS), La Société d’ethnologie française et l’Association européenne des anthropologues sociaux (EASA) organisent un colloque international les 21 et 22 juin 2011. Afin de mesurer le rôle de la revue dans le domaine de l’ethnologie de la France et de l’Europe, ce colloque international propose de jeter un regard réflexif et interdisciplinaire sur quelques thèmes dont Ethnologie française a été l’initiatrice. Il s’agira de croiser le regard d’auteurs dont l’œuvre a fait date et de plus jeunes chercheurs travaillant dans le même domaine, parmi d’autres, le corps, la parenté, la religion, les migrations, l’identité nationale. Façon de revisiter des thèmes et des objets autour desquels la discipline s’est structurée, qui ont connu d’incessantes évolutions et permettent de mieux aborder les changements contemporains.

Tourist Spaces

Between Practices and Theories

In our conference we intend to question the modalities according to which tourist spaces are lived, analyzed and interpreted. The interventions not only of anthropologists, semioticians and geographers, but also of other specialists, are particularly welcome to examine different tourist phenomena starting from the perspective of space. The fundamental principle upon which we wish to base our interrogation is founded on a precise anthropological conception of space. Besides being an abstract concept, in our perspective space constitutes an active element of cultural modeling: space is not a neutral container within which human actions are accomplished independently from its cultural shaping, but a real and true meaningful feature contributing to structure human actions and give them sense inside a society. If we follow this hypothesis, the reflection on tourist spaces takes on a particularly decisive role for many disciplines and for the definition of culture(s) in a more and more globalized world.

Identity and interculturality: research methods

Roskilde International Summer School

The aims of the Roskilde International Summer School are threefold: 1. to help students grasp and critically engage with the notions of identity and interculturality and see how they are related; 2. to get to know various research methods that can help students to work within cultural and social complexity; 3. to discuss their own research topics and to get to test various research tools that can help them to move on in/improve their research. The Summer School is meant to be transdisciplinary, and the target group is PhD students from all disciplinary backgrounds who are especially interested in methodologies related to this field of study.
