Who named the gods? Utterers, addressers, ritual agents
The ERC MAP Seminar “The Names of the Gods! 5: Who named the gods? Utterers, addressers, ritual agents” pursues the investigation on the systems of naming of the divine. This year, it focuses on the human agents in the process of naming the divine, whether they are producers of a discourse on the deities, addressers in a communication with the deities, or even experts in charge of a ritual knowledge. What agency do men and women exercise in the production of a specific denomination of the divine? How can we question their choices, their anchoring in a tradition or their innovation strategies?

Exploring the potentials of the name in images, in narratives
The ERC MAP Seminar “The Names of the Gods! 4: Exploring the potentials of the name in images, in narratives” pursues the investigation on the systems of naming of the divine. By focusing on names, images and narratives, we will look for connections but also discrepancies, in order to highlight, from duly selected cases or files, the specifications of the different languages used to unfold the potentials of the divine names. In the spirit of the MAP project, we will pay special attention to the links that the names, the images and the narratives convey.

Naming and Mapping the Gods in the Ancient Mediterranean. Spaces, Mobilities, Imaginaries
Organised by the ERC Advanced Grant “Mapping Ancient Polytheisms. Cult Epithets as an Interface between Religious Systems and Human Agency” (MAP - 741182), the conference Naming and Mapping the gods in the Ancient Mediterranean. Spaces, Mobilities, Imaginaries hopes to bring together the competences and specialties of multiple disciplines – archaeology, history, geography, anthropology, history of religions, philology, reception, social network analysis – in order to consider new documentation corpora concerning the intersection between the divine and space. Among other things, the conference aims to propose an innovative angle of approach: the intersection between the spaces and designations of the gods.

ERC MAP Seminar « Noms de dieux ! »
3: Texts, images and contexts of use (January-June 2019)
The ERC MAP Seminar « Noms de dieux ! » 3: “Texts, images and contexts of use” pursues the investigation on the systems of naming of the divine by privileging two main issues: the contexts of enunciation and the imaging of "divine onomastic attributes". While the session program focuses on the Greek and Western Semitic worlds (in the broad sense), it aims to propose case studies as well as theoretical proposals. Dossiers will be presented dealing in particular with questions related to translation strategies, proper names, the plurality of the divine, interactions between names and images, in various contexts of use: dedications, curses, oaths, hymns and other forms of address.

Ancient percussions: Organology - Perceptions - Polyvalence
Organologie - Perceptions - Polyvalence
Longtemps parents pauvres de la recherche sur la musique antique et très souvent relégués à la fin des ultimes pages des catalogues d’instruments de musique, les instruments à percussion connaissent depuis quelques années un regain d’intérêt de la part du monde scientifique. Les études les plus récentes ont pourtant montré la complexité des usages de ces artefacts qui, au-delà de leur seul mécanisme sonore, sont mobilisés dans variété de contextes (cérémonies, symphonia, théâtre, domaine funéraire, offrandes votives, etc.) pour des raisons multiples. On s’intéressera plus particulièrement au cas des idiophones dans le cadre de cette journée, mais également aux membranophones lorsque les données le permettent.

The Fragrant and the Foul: The Smells and Senses of Antiquity
International Conference IMAGINES
L’objectif du colloque sera d’explorer le rôle de l’olfaction, en relation avec les autres registres sensoriels, dans les processus de réception de l’Antiquité à l’époque moderne. Nous nous intéresserons de manière plus spécifique aux arts visuels et performatifs, lorsqu’ils cherchent à engager l’expérience sensorielle du lecteur ou du spectateur. Seront ainsi concernés non seulement peinture, littérature, théâtre, cinéma, mais également les nouveaux médias, dont la publicité, les jeux vidéos, les séries et comics qui renouvellent l’imaginaire lié à l’Antiquité, tout en profitant de nouveaux moyens techniques.

In gods' name! Gods at the border
L’objectif du séminaire est de poursuivre notre réflexion collective sur les noms des dieux et les stratégies de dénominations dans la fabrique du divin, en considérant des dossiers qui sont aux frontières – géographiques etchronologiques – de notre projet, en particulier : les textes ougaritiques, les mondes hittites et mésopotamiens, ainsi que l’Iran (achéménide), la Gaule, Rome et l’Arabie pré-islamique.

The decline and resurrection of objects, spaces and people in Greco-Roman Antiquity
The notions of declassification and reclassification
Les pratiques de classement et de taxinomie dans l’Antiquité gréco-romaine ont été bien étudiées. En revanche, les processus de déchéance, déclassement et de réhabilitation ou reclassement associés, ont moins retenu l’attention des antiquisants, à l’exception peut-être de la damnatio memoriae, notion déjà décrite par les Anciens. Il ne s’agit pas, au cours de cette manifestation scientifique, d’analyser les processus classificatoires, ni les groupes qui en découlent en tant que tels, – elles ont notamment fait l’objet de deux contributions dans le récent volume, Classement, déclassement, Reclassement, Gilles Chabaud (éd.), Limoges 2011– mais plutôt d’aborder, dans une approche inversée, ce qui motive les Anciens à rejeter ou mettre à l’écart d’un regroupement préalable, en d’autres mots à déchoir un objet, une personne, un espace, une pratique, d’une position préalablement bien établie et reconnue de tous.

Ancient percussion instruments
Organology - perceptions - multi-functionality
Percussion instruments have a renewal of interest for a few years, after being a long time poor relatives of academic research and very often relegated to the end of the catalogues of musical instruments. However, recent studies show the complexity of uses of these items which, beyond their only sonorous mechanism, are mobilized in a wide range of contexts (ceremonies, theater, funerary field, votive offerings, etc.) for numerous reasons. Special attention will be paid to idiophones, but also to membranophones when data allows it.

Study days - Prehistory and Antiquity
Power and religion in Antiquity - echoes, memory and forgetting
PLH CRATA and PLH-ERASME doctoral study day
Cette journée d’étude propose d’interroger l’interaction entre les notions de pouvoir et de religion dans l’Antiquité en s’appuyant sur la richesse et la diversité des approches des équipes de recherches toulousaines PLH-CRATA et PLH-ERASME. Cette manifestation a pour vocation de permettre aux doctorants et aux doctorantes – membres de PLH mais, également, membres de laboratoires et d’équipes de recherche travaillant dans les domaines de l’Antiquité et celui de sa réception – de présenter leurs travaux au miroir des problématiques soulevées par le rapprochement de ces deux notions aussi vastes que complexes.

Le projet ERC MAP (Mapping Ancient Polytheisms) embrasse l'ensemble des épithètes divines attestées dans les inscriptions et les textes littéraires grecs et ouest-sémitiques entre 1000 av. et 400 de n. è. Grâce aux épithètes, les dieux se déclinent en une multitude d'aspects et dessinent des configurations qui demandent à être analysées. L’objectif de ce premier séminaire semestriel est d’élargir notre réflexion collective sur les noms des dieux et les stratégies de dénominations dans la fabrique du divin, en accueillant toutes les deux semaines, à Toulouse, deux invités venus de divers horizons thématiques – études grecques et sémitiques, mais aussi monde biblique, égyptologie, anthropologie – dans un atelier de travail au cours duquel les intervenants apporteront des idées issues de leurs domaines de recherche, des pistes de documentation, des questionnements méthodologiques à explorer, des cas d’étude stimulants.
