Ce numéro de la revue Textes et Contextes (à paraître en novembre 2020) souhaite mobiliser des recherches variées appartenant au champ des sciences humaines et sociales ou des lettres qui explorent les liens et les heurts entre intimités et identités politiques ainsi que l’appropriation de ces deux concepts par les femmes latino-américaines et/ou nord-américaines depuis le début du XX^e siècle.

X-ray of violence in Peru in the post-war

15 years of the Commission of Truth and Reconciliation: appraisals and perspectives

De longue date, la France a accueilli nombre de rencontres sur la violence politique et ses enjeux mémoriels dans les pays latino-américains. Nous proposons ici la première manifestation académique sur le cas péruvien en France. Ce colloque vise à questionner l’impact du rapport final de la Commission de la Vérité et Réconciliation (CVR) en tant que grand récit « officiel » du conflit armé au Pérou. Dans une perspective pluridisciplinaire, il s’agira d’analyser les répercussions des recommandations de la CVR et d’interroger « l’actualité » du conflit armé dans la société péruvienne. Pour mener à bien ce projet, nous avons souhaité faire dialoguer différents espaces, approches et disciplines faisant écho à ce sujet : notre réflexion s’articule ainsi au croisement de l’anthropologie, de la sociologie, de l’histoire, de l’archéologie et de la littérature.

Filiation, the imagination and society

Líneas journal no. 9

Se plonger dans l'étude du lien social, sous l'angle de la filiation, à travers les témoignages et les traditions orales, les textes juridiques, historiques, les représentations littéraires et artistiques revient à affiner nos connaissances sur la complexité de sociétés en perpétuelle évolution : la filiation et ses représentations témoignent-t-elles d’un désir de reproduction à l’identique ou engagent-elles des dynamiques de transformation venant créer des brèches dans l’ordre sociopolitique institué, visant parfois à le révolutionner ? Ce numéro 9 de Líneas, « Filiation, imaginaires et sociétés », s’intéressera aux formes et aux représentations de la filiation, en Espagne et en Amérique latine, dans une perspective diachronique. Seront particulièrement appréciées les contributions faisant dialoguer représentations sociales (sociologie, anthropologie, histoire, études culturelles…) et représentations esthétiques (littérature, cinéma, photographie…).

IV International Conference of Myth Criticism

Myth and Emotions

Along with rational logic there is an emotional logic, responsible for many actions that we carry out. Myth Criticism tends to tackle mythical stories from a structural, social and historical perspective. However, it often ignores the emotional component. It seems as if the affective dimension, particularly active in our contemporary society, is not considered relevant in the studies of mythology. The Conference will examine the function undertaken by emotions in the structure of mythical stories and in the processes of mythification of characters and historical events. The object of the study will focus on ancient, medieval and modern myths in contemporary literature and art (since 1900).

Rewriting: logic of repetition?

III International Conference in Narratives

The third International Conference in Narratives, organized by Universidad EAFIT (Medellín, Colombia) and Università degli Studi di Padova, proposes rewriting as an object of reflection from the arts, humanities, social sciences and communication sciences. To interrogate the gesture of writing a text again, it involves accounting for an operation that, in its apparent simplicity, shows the experience of time and repetition, the recording of memory, the tension between imitation and difference, and the means of reproduction and creation. Along its relationships, objects and notions that it implies, the gesture of rewriting is exemplary and heuristic; it has become a model for understanding various phenomena and cultural practices.

Poétiques et politiques du corps dans la contemporanéité

Contemporary poetics and politics of thee body

From a comparing and transversal perspective, gathering different theoretical and artistic subjects, this congress aims at opening an interdisciplinary dialog, as well as putting into play the different questions that contemporaneity asks about the body. Knowing their territorial cultural differences, each historical period produces a different concept of body and person, which is intimately connected to what goes around on the artistic, theoretical, technological, social, politic and economic fields that sustain it. From an interdisciplinary point of view, this meeting intends to propose and get on the tracks of an investigation that can favour understanding the construction of corporality in our contemporary context.

Purity and Impurity

Hamsa. Journal of Judaic and Islamic Studies, nº 2

“Purity” and “Impurity” establish themselves as structural categories in both Islam and Judaism, embracing dimensions as diverse as the body, food, clothing and even space itself. The 2^nd issue of the journal Hamsa will be devoted to this wide-ranging theme, seeking to obtain diachronic historical perspectives. To this effect, we aim to promote the analysis of interfaith relationships, in those instances where purity and impurity are projected in contacts with the Other. Those dimensions concern not only the minorities, but also affect Christianitas itself, through interiorization of these concepts and their application to minority communities (as is the case, for example, with limpeza de sangue - “cleanliness of blood”).
