La città multietnica nel mondo mediterraneo
Storia, cultura, patrimonio
This meeting aims to foster a discussion about the continuities and disruptions which have conditioned the multi-ethnic dimension of our cities. We would like to focus on the specificities of places and time in our millennial history that have produced both tangible and intangible cultural heritage (a heritage which today seems strongly under attack). We aim for a historical perspective – by drawing attention on well-documented case-studies offering comparative insights – without however forgetting to ask ourselves the meaning of our research in the troubled world we live in; without anachronisms, but also without hiding behind the pretext of specialisms, while in front of our eyes the Mediterranean world is more than ever a theatre of death, exclusion, suffering.

Conference, symposium - History
Letters, journals and memories of soldiers, women and children during the First World War
Quels sont les sentiments, les perceptions et les attitudes mentales des soldats, mais aussi des civils, des femmes, des enfants, durant la guerre ? Quelles sont leurs stratégies de résistance psychologique à cette déstabilisante expérience ? On peut tenter de répondre à ces questions en se tournant vers l'ample typologie de textes produits par les combattants et la population civile « mobilisée » : lettres, journaux et mémoires qui – encore en partie enfouis dans des tiroirs de famille ou conservés dans des archives d'écriture populaire – expriment des potentialités narratives considérables, mais revêtent aussi d'une part, un fort intérêt historiographique et linguistique. Ce colloque a pour but de se confronter aux questions méthodologiques encore ouvertes, présentant des textes particulièrement significatifs et des résultats de recherche dans ce domaine en croisant les approches scientifiques sur les écrits des soldats des divers fronts en Europe durant le conflit.

Letters, diaries and memoirs of soldiers, women and children in the First World War
What were the feelings, the perceptions and the mental attitudes of soldiers and civilians, of women and children, during the war? What strategies of psychological resistance did they employ in response to such destabilising experience? It is possible to answer these questions by consulting the wide variety of writings produced by the combatants and by the civilian population "mobilised" during the conflict. These letters, diaries, and memoirs – some still hidden in old drawers, though many collected in 'folk writing' archives – are also of considerable narrative and historical interest, due to their linguistic peculiarities, and their efficacy as depth-probes and guides into the war. This conference will address the methodological debates that are still ongoing, while presenting texts of particular significance, as well as the results of European research in historical and linguistic fields.

Call for papers - Prehistory and Antiquity
The Second Iron Age in the Tyrrhenian Sea. Economic, social and cultural aspects
L’objectif de la journée d’étude internationale FERTIGE13 (Ferro Tirreno Genova 2013) est de dynamiser la mise en réseau des jeunes chercheurs en réunissant une douzaine de doctorants et jeunes docteurs (moins de cinq ans) concernés par l’espace et la chronologie de la réunion, tout en privilégiant l’interdisciplinarité des approches. Les intervenants seront invités à présenter des travaux en lien avec cette problématique, en insistant sur la contextualisation à échelle inter-régionale, et en focalisant sur les méthodologies impliquées, dans l’idée de confronter au mieux les dynamiques de recherche actuelles entre les différentes institutions.
