  Life and Mind. Aristotelian themes in contemporary philosophy

  Despite the interest in exploring Aristotelian themes in contemporary philosophy, there has been no coordinated attempt to survey or integrate the ways in which Aristotle’s approach to understanding life, mind, and the relation between them might inform and enrich our own. The objective of this workshop is to explore the way in which Aristotelian thought can brought to bear on contemporary research on the much-debated issue of the so-called mind-body problem and on its implications for the conceptualization of notions such as that of organism, animal and human perception and action, human moral agency, and the relation between mind and life.

  Semantic Web for Scientific Heritage

  SW4SH 2016: Second International Workshop

  Classicists and historians are interested in developing textual databases, in order to gather and explore large amounts of primary source materials. For a long time, they mainly focused on text digitization and markup. They only recently decided to try to explore the possibility of transferring some analytical processes they previously thought incompatible with automation to knowledge engineering systems, thus taking advantage of the growing set of tools and techniques based on the languages and standards of the semantic Web, such as linked data, ontologies, and automated reasoning. SW4SH 2016 aims to provide a leading international and interdisciplinary forum for disseminating the latest research in the field of Semantic Web for the preservation and exploitation of our scientific heritage, the study of the history of ideas and their transmission.

  Feeding animals/Eating animals. Theories, Attitudes and Cultural Representations of Nutrition in Ancient and Medieval World

  Memoria scientiae 2015

  According to ancient biological theories, nutrition is, along with reproduction, one of the functions of the soul shared by men, animals and plants. At the same time, however, eating habits are among the starting points on which differences between humans, animals and plants are culturally built. This means that a transversal biological praxis can be used as an anthropological device, in order to to fix and identify specific boundaries and thresholds, either symbolic or theoretical, between both animality and vegetality on the one hand, and zoosphere and  anthroposphere on the other hand.

  Archéologie et politique

  Collusion ou conflit entre l'archéologie et la politique

  Compte tenu de leur importance et de leurs conséquences sur notre culture et l'histoire de nos civilisations, les liens entre l’archéologie et la politique sont d'une actualité brûlante et bien qu’ils soient traités dans les médias ils suscitent souvent des commentaires peu éclairés. Ce sujet aujourd’hui très commun peut être abordé selon deux approches. D’un côté on voit dans l’histoire, ancienne ou récente, voire très actuelle, que, parfois sans hésiter à recourir aux faux les plus grossiers, les pouvoirs politiques ou les nationalismes ont cherché et cherchent encore dans l’archéologie la justification des idéologies ou des revendications les plus contestables. D’un autre côté, on voit bien aussi que la recherche et le sauvetage légitimes des vestiges du passé ainsi que la conservation attendue de ce qui en est mis au jour sont devenus des enjeux politiques, au sens noble du terme, c’est-à-dire qu’ils sont l’affaire de tous, qu’ils font partie, au même titre que la protection de l’environnement, par exemple, des grands dossiers (notamment ceux de l’aménagement du territoire) que doivent désormais prendre en compte les responsables publics, à quelque niveau de décision ou d’exécution, national, international ou même mondial, qu’ils se situent.
