French Historical Studies (Special Issue)
The history of the music of France has traditionally been studied as a separate category without the same robust interest as other cultural artifacts such as film and literature. More recent scholarship illuminates the place of music in French society and suggests that more work should be done to sketch out the particular place of music in all its forms in French history. This special issue of French Historical Studies proposes to take stock of and advance this historiographical renewal. What can the production and consumption of music tell us about the shifting nature of French identity and the relationships among various constituencies in French history?

Victorians like us – Domesticity and worldliness
Issue of “Open Cultural Studies”
From novels to government reports, the Victorians attached unprecedented significance to domesticity. The household was a central institution, and their occupants played out their different roles according to custom and circumstance. Within its sphere, gender, class, economic and political conflicts were played out as the household provided the background for important social practices. These practices ranged from the kitchen to the parlour, from the street to the Houses of Parliament, from the colonial metropole to the British colonial outposts in Africa, Asia, Australia and the Pacific.

5th international congress “Sport, doping and society”
The 5th international congress “Sport, doping and society” is organized by the Spanish Agency for Health Protection in Sport (AEPSAD) and the Technical University of Madrid (UPM). Under the theme “Think Clean”, there will be presented the results of scientific researches and new methodologies in the field of doping in sport from the specific perspective of Human and Social Sciences. We believe that this initiative will contribute to identify the factors that influence the use of doping substances and methods. From this knowledge we hope to foster future prevention and doping control and to promote ethical behavior in sport.

Women and sport in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries
Women's access to sports and physical education is a story made by advances and retreats, punctuated by discrimination, mentalities’ shifts and social achievements. In fact, by the end of 1800, women's participation in sporting events was only looked upon as entertainment, giving particular attention to body and facial postures, and to feminine beauty, setting physical strength, agility and skill of the athletes as second level of importance. The Summer Olympics are a clear illustration of this historical path. The "Women and Sport in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries" conference, organized by the Institute of Contemporary History (Faculty of Social and Human Sciences - Nova University of Lisbon), seeks to analyze, in a critical and integrated way, the history of this journey, watching its multiple dimensions and approaches: social, economic, political, cultural, legal, ethical, organizational, media, medical and gender. This meeting aims to provide a space of discussion, seeking to stimulate and further develop studies in the History of Sports, particularly in the field of History of Women’s Sports.

La culture aérienne. Objets, imaginaire, pratiques de l'aéronautique, XVIIIe-XXe siècle
Aeronautical Culture. Artifacts, Imagination, and the Practice of Aeronautics.18th-20th Century
L’approche de l’histoire de l’aéronautique proposée ici est celle de problématiques transversales sur la longue durée. Des premiers ballons en 1783 aux transports de masse de nos jours, la culture aérienne a imprimé sa marque au monde moderne. Loin d’opposer aérostation et aviation, il s’agit de s’interroger sur cette culture aérienne en prenant en considération les temps longs et parfois superposés des savoirs, des représentations, des réceptions et des pratiques variées qui traversent le champ des techniques. Le vol libre des ballons nourrit tout au long du XIXe siècle de nouveaux imaginaires et trace l’horizon de conquêtes possibles que l’avion et le dirigeable revivifient et rendent réalisables. La première guerre mondiale génère des industries aéronautiques, y compris civiles ; le transport de masse, des entreprises et des infrastructures, des flux de voyageurs et de marchandises, le nouveau visage des échanges mondiaux. Loin de se réduire à l’héroïsme des pionniers, ces problématiques permettent d’aborder un ensemble de questions nouant l’histoire des techniques et l’histoire culturelle. -
