    Rethinking Work and Labour History

    “Mos Historicus: Critical Review of European History” Journal

    Work has always been central to the making of European societies. More than an economic activity, it has shaped everyday life, social identities, relations of power, and ideas of value across centuries. From medieval social orders and early work ethics to industrialisation, class formation, and today’s precarious labour conditions, the history of work reveals how people lived, struggled, and belonged. In recent decades, new cultural, gender, global, and digital approaches have widened the field. At a time of renewed debate shaped by automation, platform labour, and AI, Mos Historicus : A Critical Review of European History invites original contributions for its fourth issue on Labour History/History of Work.

    The Handbook of Religion and Transmedia Storytelling: From Antiquity to the Digital Age

    We invite submissions for the edited volume The Handbook of Religion and Transmedia Storytelling: From Antiquity to the Digital Age. We invite scholars across disciplines, including religious studies, media studies, cultural studies, literary studies, narrative studies, anthropology, and political science. We particularly welcome proposals that focus on a wide range of traditions and cultural contexts, including Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, Indigenous traditions, Afro-diasporic religions, and esotericism. We also encourage contributions that examine phenomena at the intersections of religion and broader cultural domains, for example conspiracy theories, speculative fiction, nonfiction paranormal narratives, and apocalyptic narratives.

    La liberté de conscience avant le siècle des Lumières (1000-1650)

    La liberté de conscience est considérée comme étant un droit inaliénable comparable aux libertés d’expression et de parole, comme noté dans les articles 18 et 19 dans la Charte des Nations Unies. Mais si on tourne notre regard vers l’époque médiévale, et sa grande variété d’écrits spirituels il est clair que la mécanique de l’oppression externe sur la vie intérieure d’un individu est conçue d’une manière claire et nette. La question que nous nous posons est la suivante : si on projette notre regard au-delà du XVIIIe, voyons-nous cette notion de liberté de conscience devenir progressivement tangible ?

    Petrus Hispanus' Tractatus : Logic and Philosophy from the Middle Ages to Modernity

    Petrus Hispanus’ Tractatus, or Summulae logicales, composed in the mid-thirteenth century, came to occupy a central place in the study of logic from the late thirteenth century onward. Commented in several studia and then by Buridan at the University of Paris, it was gradually adopted across European universities and remained in use until the seventeenth century, surviving in hundreds of manuscripts and hundreds of printed editions.

    Matérialité et enfermements au Moyen Âge et à l’époque moderne : objets, acteurs et expériences

    Ce colloque international se propose d’explorer les enfermements à l’aune de leur matérialité. De fait, les objets et les choses se situent au centre des expériences d’enfermement, défini après tout par la présence physique de murs séparant les individus de la société. Outre les murs, les interactions quotidiennes entre les individus enfermés, les autorités et le personnel de l’institution sont largement caractérisées et définies par un large éventail de choses : la nourriture, l’eau, les livres, les graffitis, les habits, l’argent, les lettres, les registres d’écrou, les médicaments, les objets de punition corporelle, etc. De ce point de vue, à la suite du material turn depuis le début des années 2000, les choses – qu’elles soient « tangibles », c’est-à-dire conservées et à la disposition des historien·ne·s, ou « textuelles », soit décrites dans les sources – pourraient offrir une perspective innovante sur l’histoire des enfermements, tout particulièrement concernant les formes de « prison avant la prison ».

    Thinking High and Low: Elites, Experts, and the Masses in the Early Reformation

    The summer school highlights the dynamic interplay between “high” and “low” forms of thinking and between elite norm-setting and the appropriation, adaptation or contestation of those norms in real-life situations and historical events. By integrating inputs from theology, philosophy and history, along with intellectual, linguistic and social perspectives, the programme presents the transition from the late Middles Ages to the Reformation as a complex reordering of normative structures and cultural hierarchies. It invites the participants to reconsider the period through the lens of how ideas moved between, and were transformed across, different levels of thought, language and society.

    Rethinking Innocent IV and the Crusades: A Multidisciplinary Inquiry

    “Rethinking Innocent IV and the Crusades” seeks to reassess the pontificate of Innocent IV (1243–1254) through a sustained examination of his engagement with the crusading movement. We are pleased to invite proposals for 20-minute papers exploring all aspects of the relationship between the pontificate of Innocent IV and the crusading movement. We particularly welcome contributions that adopt interdisciplinary approaches, including (but not limited to) history, legal history, theology, manuscript studies, political thought and institutional history. Particular attention will be moreover giving the proposals concerning the history of heresy and heretical communities during Innocent’s pontificate, the relationship with the Mendicant Orders, with the Mongol World, the promotion and the business of the cross in Italy.

    Artworks and the meaningful connections among their parts

    As an increasing number of studies are demonstrating with growing clarity, the analysis of certain aspects - or more precisely, components - of paintings through the lens of their materiality can reveal crucial insights into the artwork itself. These include not only the materials in the strict sense, such as canvas, wood, or nails, but also their composition as a whole, understood as a unified entity, essential to the artwork.

    the many forms in which women played with writing between the Middle Ages and the early modern period

    The organisers of the workshop propose an occasion for reflection and dialogue on the literary and non-literary works of women authors from the Middle Ages to the 18th century, with the intention of welcoming original and unpublished papers that can contribute to enriching current knowledge and advance research on the themes, modes and forms of women's writing. There will be a focus on lesser-known figures and contributions related to the activity of as yet not-famous women.

    Reading Chaucer outside the Anglophone World: Receptions, Translations, and Traditions

    In Sondry Ages and Sondry Londes

    The recent Mandarin Chinese translation of The Canterbury Tales (Linking Publishing, 2025) by Dr. Francis K. H. So offers a timely opportunity to reflect on the growing presence, vitality, and diversity of Chaucerian studies outside the Anglophone world. This significant contribution not only opens new avenues for engaging with Geoffrey Chaucer’s language and narrative art, but also foregrounds the crucial role of translation, pedagogy, and local scholarly traditions in shaping how Chaucer is read, interpreted, and taught across different linguistic and cultural contexts.

    Visualizing Archaeology

    Constraints and Sources of Innovation in Research

    The visualization of archaeological results can clarify, while at the same time also obscure ; walking the line of simplification for public consumption, disagreements or misunderstandings among experts and color codes/omissions can blur the lines of where exactly uncertainty lies. Yet these constraints stimulate invention, participation, and new data. Sharing research findings with a general audience may result in oversimplification, while visualizing 3D models or other visual aids can lead to misunderstandings among experts. The limitations of visualization, such as colour coding, the omission of details, and inadequate information can lead to overanalysis, obscure uncertainty or skew tentative conclusions.

    Worked shells in the ancient world

    Material, use, typology, chronology and contexts

    We are glad to inform you that an international e-conference on worked shells in the ancient world will take place on May 20, 2026 on Zoom.us. This forthcoming online meeting will be an archaeomalacological workshop in honour of Jean-Paul Descœudres from the Universities of Geneva and Sydney. Papers are invited to present evidence of human collection and modification of shells from all over the ancient world (especially the Mediterranean) and over a large chronological range (from Prehistory to Antiquity with a focus on the Roman world). We are interested in worked shells rather than those used as food or as environmental indicators.

    Le multiple et l’un. Agencements et décompositions dans les textes et les images du Moyen Âge

    Ce colloque souhaite interroger les modalités selon lesquelles le Moyen Âge a pensé, articulé et transformé le rapport entre multiplicité et unité. Les pratiques des auteurs, des scribes, des artistes, des commanditaires et des publics s’inscrivent dans un champ où la mise en forme du savoir, de la mémoire et de l’art passe constamment par des opérations d’assemblage, de sélection et de hiérarchisation. Nous réfléchirons à cette problématiques selon une perspective foncièrement interdisciplinaire.

    Fabulous beasts and where to read them

    Animals in Byzantine fables, proverbs, and dreambooks

    Studies on animals in the Byzantine world are gaining considerable momentum. An increasing number of scholars are exploring and reconstructing zoobiographies through the lens of Byzantine literature. Yet a significant corpus of texts—often unjustly relegated to the category of minora—remains underexplored, despite teeming with animal life. In fables, popular tales, proverb collections, school manuals, rhetorical treatises, and dreambooks, animals play important roles : they drive narrative plots, embody moral and social agency, and serve as crucial vehicles for cultural meaning.

    Sculpture et trompe l’œil dans la céramique européenne, de Bernard Palissy à aujourd’hui

    La présente édition, dédiée à la céramique européenne, souhaite aborder les questions relatives à la sculpture figurative en ronde bosse, à la sculpture en relief et au trompe l’œil, tous en céramique. Ceci inclut l’imitation d’autres matériaux, comme le bois ou les pierres précieuses, et la représentation mimétique d’animaux et de plantes. La sculpture et le trompe l’oeil sont des thèmes récurrents mais peu étudiés de façon globale dans l’art de la céramique européenne, même pas dans la céramique Art Déco, qui use fréquemment de formes sculpturales, tant dans les services, que dans les pièces purement décoratives.

    Quarries and rock-cut sites through the lens of archaeology

    The two-day conference, organised by the IRAAR group, will take place at the University of Edinburgh (UK). This conference explores the multifaceted relationships between humans and stone through an archaeological lens on quarrying, rock-cut architecture/site, and rock art. By addressing challenges of extraction, technological adaptation, and symbolic and practical engagements with rock, as well as heritage and recent research, the event fosters interdisciplinary dialogue on the transformation of rocky landscapes across time and space.
