  The Seventh Century: Continuity or Discontinuity?

  The 2013 Edinburgh University Seventh Century Colloquium

  We are pleased to announce a call for papers for the 2013 Edinburgh University Seventh Century Colloquium, 28-29 May 2013. The colloquium is a two-day interdisciplinary conference for postgraduate students and early career researchers. The colloquium brings together scholars from different disciplines studying the seventh century in order to promote discussion and the cross-fertilisation of ideas. We will explore how wider perspectives can be used to formulate new approaches to source material, drawing out fresh perspectives on both the familiar and unfamiliar. Our general theme will be an examination of whether the seventh century can be studied as a unit across regions or whether the period represents a break in the longue durée. What was the level of discontinuity between the "long sixth" and "long eighth" centuries?

  Conference, symposium - History

  Religious Practices and Christianisation of the Late Antique City

  Le colloque a pour objectif de rassembler des historiens, archéologues, historiens des religions, autour du problème de la christianisation de la cité tardo-antique, et plus précisément autour des mutations des pratiques religieuses et de leurs conséquences sur la cité. On a vu dans l’interdiction des cultes païens au profit du christianisme le signe du passage d’une religion civique, extériorisation d’un rituel partagé de facto par tous les citoyens, à une religion communautaire, fondée sur l’adhésion confessionnelle de ses différents membres. Il s’agira dès lors de se demander dans quelle mesure l’abandon progressif des cultes païens, lesquels jouaient depuis toujours un rôle prépondérant dans la construction des identités civiques, au profit de nouvelles pratiques religieuses chrétiennes modifièrent les comportements sociaux, politiques, économiques et culturels.
