  Multiculturalism, interculturality, complex identities: the example of Caucasia

  The aim of the symposium is to highlight the treasures of an area that is culturally and historically a kind of multicultural island: the Caucasus. Nizami Ganjavi, for example, is a poet of multiculturalism, and he owes his fame both to his lyricism and to his ethics of peaceful coexistence. The Book of Dede Korkut is another interesting example: it is the result of a meeting of cultures, and it inspired many multicultural artists (poets, dramatists, film-makers). Caucasian multiculturalism is indeed still alive (among the numerous works inspired by the Oghuz epic, one can think of Nabi Hazri’s Dreams and legends, of Altaï Mamedov’s Deli Domrul or of Anar’s Dede Gorgut). The symposium will focus on the relationship between multiculturalism, interculturality and intermediality, as well as on the role of multiculturalism in the field of pedagogy.

  Les Ouïghours sont un peuple vivant dans l’Ouest de la Chine, au sein de la région autonome ouïghoure que traversait jadis la route de la soie. L’exceptionnelle richesse de leur culture est un domaine d’étude que privilégient les universitaires de nombreux pays. La semaine d'études ouïghoures à Paris (INALCO, EPHE / GSRL / CNRS, Sciences-Po / CERI / GRAC et université Paris 7) aura lieu du 18 au 22 novembre, et sera l'occasion d'un colloque international, d'ateliers (lectures, calligraphie, cuisine et danse), de dégustation de la cuisine ouïghoure et de deux concerts.
