  European Space Agency's Space History Conference

  There is more to space than rocket science. Historians, diplomats, economists, law students, political scientists and sociologists have all contributed to our understanding of the space age and its impact on our societies over the past decades. Sixty years on from the placing of the first human-made object in orbit around Earth, space is now an integral part of our daily lives. Space science and technology are projects for the whole of humankind, reaching not only outside Earth’s atmosphere, but also beyond our Solar System. While the technological and scientific challenges of working, living and travelling in space motivate students to pursue such studies, the impact of space activities on our lives on Earth, on relations between nations and organisations, and our collective recent history, provides fertile ground for students and scholars in the humanities to take up space-related subjects.

  François Ier et les artistes du Nord (1515-1547)

  Prolongeant les événements, commémorations et activités scientifiques qui célèbreront, en 2015, le 500^e anniversaire de l’avènement de François I^er (1^er janvier 1515) et celui de la victoire de Marignan (13 et 14 septembre 1515), la rencontre entend privilégier les liens entre le « grand roy Françoys » et le Nord. En effet, si les échanges entre François I^er et l’Italie demeurent un sujet d’études particulièrement fécond, les relations que le roi a établies avec le Nord, spécialement avec les anciens Pays-Bas méridionaux, sont tout aussi riches et complexes. Pourtant, ces rapports n’ont pas encore donné lieu à une enquête d’envergure. Le colloque « François Ier et les artistes du Nord (1515-1547) » entend combler cette lacune, en envisageant l’intérêt que le premier roi Valois a porté aux artistes, aux musiciens et aux œuvres des anciens Pays-Bas méridionaux.

  De l’Empire romain à l’impérialisme contemporain

  At the heart of the present conference will be the ‘reception’, ‘Nachleben’ or ‘permanence’ of the Roman Empire, of an idea and a historical paradigm which since Classical Antiquity has supported the most widespread claims to obtain and consolidate power. The focus will be on ‘culture’, this latter concept intended in a broad sense, i.e. including not only the arts, architecture, literature etc., but also philosophy, religion and, most importantly, discourse. As such, a wide array of themes will be subjected to academic scrutiny. Whereas the main focus will be on Europe and North America, this conference will also reach out towards non-Western contexts, whether or not directly related to the Roman example.
