  Trajectories of October 1917: Origins, reverberations and models of revolution

  Around the overarching theme of October 1917, we are seeking to foster dialogue between historians of 1917 who can make new contributions to the interpretation and analysis of that revolutionary movement in the Russian Empire, and scholars working on other areas and on later periods who also deal with 1917 in their analysis and interpretation of revolutionary movements. To bring all of this research together, we are holding a conference, from 19 to 21 October 2017, in which scholars from various disciplines and specialists of different areas are invited to participate.

  Transformation, degradation, disappearrance of scientific objects

  In philosophy and history of science, the readings investigating the complexity of the abandonment of “scientific objects” are rather rare in comparison with those focusing on the “inventions”, the ‘constructions’ or the “genealogies”. During our meeting, we will specifically draw attention to the process of the “disappearance” of “scientific objects” (in both natural and social sciences).

  North American Studies in France and Europe

  State of the Art and Future Prospects

  In 1980, François Furet established the first visiting chair in North American studies at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales in partnership with the French-American Foundation. Yet, it was not until 1984 and the election of Jean Heffer as permanent full professor that the Center for North American Studies (CENA) came into being. Despite pioneering efforts in some English departments and the creation of the first university chair in North American history at the Sorbonne in 1967, there was significant disparity between the importance of the USA in the contemporary world and the weakness of North American studies in France. Over the last thirty years and under the supervision of Jean Heffer and François Weil, the CENA has become one of the leading institutions for North American scholarship in France and Europe.

  La pratique sociale de l'écrit à travers la documentation médiévale bourguignonne

  Productions, remplois, mises en registre

  Le propos de ce colloque est de considérer la documentation bourguignonne médiévale, tout support et forme confondus, comme élément de départ d’une réflexion élargie et dans la longue durée sur les pratiques et les usages de l’écrit, en prenant comme fil conducteur la génétique documentaire et ses transformations. Il s’agira ainsi de considérer cette documentation comme un objet, ou des objets, d’étude globale, à l’intersection des contenus et des matérialités tangibles. Dès lors, on s’intéressera aux contextes et aux techniques de production, aux principes et aux structures de mise en registre, d’assemblage et de transmission, et aux enjeux des traitements et des remplois dans le temps.
