Film Festivals and Middle Eastern Cinemas
“Regards” Journal
For the better part of a century, international film festivals have been essential to the global circulation of Middle Eastern cinema. Entanglements between festivals and cinema from the region date back to at least 1946, when the Egyptian film Dunia (dir. Mohammad Karim, 1946) screened at the first full edition of the Cannes Film Festival. Since then, films from the Arab world, Iran, and Turkey have been mainstays on the festival circuit, premiering and screening at the Big Five (Berlin, Cannes, Sundance, Toronto, and Venice), as well as smaller festivals around the world.

Humanités numériques et défis de l’émergence africaine
Ce colloque sur les humanités numériques en Afrique est un cadre d'échanges qui, au-delà des perspectives interdisciplinaires et pluridisciplinaires, se veut une occasion d'échanges en vue de creuser les limites imposées par le numérique et les sciences sociales. Dans une approche inclusive, il s'agit de montrer en quoi la dématérialisation et la démocratisation de l'information s'érigent en des questions épistémologiques sur le numérique, sur le modèle d’éducation et de culture dans une Afrique en plein essor. Les discussions porteront essentiellement sur le numérique, les lettres, les arts, la pédagogie, la recherche, les sciences sociales et l’émergence de l’Afrique.

Tant dans l’espace journalistique que sur les murs mêmes de la ville, la caricature politique et l’illustration graphique constituent des sources de la culture visuelle qui condensent et montrent les batailles symboliques qui se livraient dans la rue, allant même jusqu’à redéfinir les codes et les pratiques utilisés dans l’espace public. À la croisée de l’histoire politique, de l’histoire de l’art, des études culturelles et de l’analyse urbaine, ce colloque propose d’examiner les façons dont la caricature politique, la satire visuelle et l’illustration graphique ont influencé la représentation et les usages de l’espace urbain au cours du « long XIXe siècle » espagnol.

Sociability and the Travelling Letter
Message, Medium, Mobility in Europe and the Colonies in the Long Eighteenth Century (1650-1850)
The long eighteenth century is widely recognisedby scholars as a golden age of letter writing, characterised by the expansion of transnational and transatlantic correspondence networks among the elites. Particularly in Britain, this period witnessed an unprecedented enthusiasm for epistolary exchange, which led to a proliferation of publications—ranging from scholarly productions such as theoretical treatises and letter-writing manuals, to literary works, whether fictional, sentimental, general, or biographical. These developments contributed to a redefinition of epistolary conventions, narrative models, and often gendered representations of letter writing.

Vestígios do passado nas artes e letras afro-luso-brasileiras
Ces dernières années, plusieurs œuvres littéraires, audiovisuelles et artistiques ont abordé d’une manière différente le rapport au passé. Plutôt que de le figer comme une époque révolue, elles l’inscrivent dans le présent à travers des traces, des strates qui émergent au fil des récits et des représentations. Bien que de nombreuses intrigues se construisent au présent, et à l’époque de leur production, elles sont constamment traversées par le passé, non seulement à travers des références explicites, mais aussi par le biais d’empreintes subtiles qui hantent les personnages, les lieux et les dynamiques narratives. Ce colloque international propose d’examiner la façon dont les traces du passé s’inscrivent dans les œuvres audiovisuelles, littéraires et artistiques de l’univers afro-luso-brésilien. Il s’attachera à examiner comment les traces, les présences spectrales et les ruines, en tant que strates temporelles et mémorielles, hantent les imaginaires contemporains et nourrissent une réflexion sur la persistance du passé et ses résonances dans le présent.

Photography from the Struggles for Independence
Practices, circulations and aesthetics
The aim of this colloquium is to highlight the histories of photography generated during the processes of decolonization, while rethinking methodological and aesthetic approaches to the medium that are still too Western-centric. What has happened to the production and circulation of photographers and their images since the independence struggles? How did new iconographies, new aesthetics and, with them, new networks of visual exchange develop, complicating the one-sided visibilities and photographic circulations from the “South” to the “North” established during the colonial periods?

Things Unsaid, Things Unwritten during the English Restoration (1660-1714)
Aussi conventionnelle qu’oxymorique, l'expression de « non-dit » remet en question la binarité supposée entre parole et silence. L’expression thématise à la fois une absence, un manque (de mots), et porte néanmoins en elle la trace manifeste d’une présence. Du moins pour qui sait la déchiffrer. Car le silence du non-dit est, en réalité, une invitation : à comprendre, à deviner, à faire accoucher un sens qui ne veut, ou ne peut pas se dire. Le non-dit porte en lui la trace d’un effacement, mais aussi d'une résistance obstinée. Le non-dit est un silence qui dit quelque chose. Comment repérer les signes d'un silence qui n'en est pas un ? Comment reconstruire avec certitude un discours absent ? Ce projet prolonge la réflexion lancée à l'occasion du colloque « Consentir, refuser, céder : Spectres de la conquête à la Restauration (1660-1714) ». Il a pour vocation de constituer un groupe informel d'étude interdisciplinaire sur la Restauration.

Conference, symposium - Political studies
Digital democracy: promises and illusions
A stable and peaceful society is based on a solid and strong democracy. The democratic model is the future of any society that respects human rights. New information and communication technologies and the still poorly regulated advances in Artificial Intelligence have impacted not only all human activity, but have also contributed to reshaping the relationship with politics, citizen participation, political communication and politics. national and international. Digital democracy (or electronic, cyber, digital) is a political-social phenomenon which began to emerge around fifteen years ago in very diverse national contexts. Today, it is a tool that is used mainly for electoral expression intended for a fairly small number of citizens. The purpose of this international conference is to question the phenomenon of electronic democracy not only from an instrumental point of view (e-voting tool), but to question the conditions of possibility and possible limits.
