  Debates, Polemics and Controversies in Early Modern Philosophy

  Third International Conference of the European Society for Early Modern Philosophy

  The general objective of the conference is to take an overview of the present historiographical situation regarding the study of controversies and to contribute to a reappraisal of the study of controversies in the history of early modern philosophy. It will aim not only at mapping the many philosophical controversies of the early modern period, but as well at making explicit the different methodological approaches that can be used to analyse controversies and at evaluating the different explanatory merits of those methodological approaches.

  Marshall G.S. Hodgson, Islam and World History

  Ce colloque permettra de revenir sur l'œuvre de G. S. Marshall Hodgson (1922-1968), un des plus grands historiens américains de l'Islam et par ailleurs un géographe de génie et un des premiers grands penseurs de l'histoire globale. Lors des quatre séances d'une demi-journée chacune, il sera question de l'apport de Hodgson comme islamologue ; de sa manière d'avoir « inventé » ou pratiqué l'histoire globale au sein du « Comittee on Social Thought » de l'Université de Chicago ; du caractère créatif en historiographie, notamment dans les années 1950 et 1960 ; et pour finir, l'état de l'histoire globale de nos jours.

  Exo-lexical variables in monolingual and bilingual morphological processing

  Exo-lexical variables in monolingual and bilingual morphological processing. Dates : 9 et 11 février 2012. Workshop dans le cadre de l'IMM15 (International Morphology Meeting), 9-12 février 2012, Vienne (Autriche). The question of how the lexicon is organized in terms of structural units and how these units interact with each other during lexical access and subsequently during morphological processing, has been a controversial field for a long time. The morpheme versus lexeme problem is still unsolved, but several pieces of psycholinguistic evidence have come to corroborate the hypothesis according to which the locus of morphological effects is not situated exclusively inside the lexical unit but should be extended to its environment. In fact, one of the difficulties of the study of morphology for alphabetic languages is that not only morphology is correlated with semantic, orthographic and phonological factors, but also that stems and inflected or derived words exist as free word-forms, entertaining different interrelations.
