  In/visible: representation, discourse, practices, “dispositifs”

  Interdisciplinary Graduate Conference

  How is the materiality of the visible world inscribed in its cultural representations? What are the more or less visible actors and mechanisms in the genesis of a cultural artefact? Should the visible / invisible binomial be considered as an anthropological constant or as the effect of a certain epistemological constellation? To what extent does visibility coincide with power and, therefore, how should one represent the in/visible? These are just some of the questions that cultural studies, in their innate interdisciplinarity and methodological heterogeneity can formulate with respect to the issue.

  Coloquio - Prehistoria y Antigüedad

  Feeding animals/Eating animals. Theories, Attitudes and Cultural Representations of Nutrition in Ancient and Medieval World

  Memoria scientiae 2015

  According to ancient biological theories, nutrition is, along with reproduction, one of the functions of the soul shared by men, animals and plants. At the same time, however, eating habits are among the starting points on which differences between humans, animals and plants are culturally built. This means that a transversal biological praxis can be used as an anthropological device, in order to to fix and identify specific boundaries and thresholds, either symbolic or theoretical, between both animality and vegetality on the one hand, and zoosphere and  anthroposphere on the other hand.

  Coloquio - Pensamiento

  Espaces en action, actions dans l'espace

  De quelle manière peut-on définir l'espace ? De quelle manière peut-on définir l'action ? Plutôt que de les envisager séparément, nous voudrions, lors de ce colloque, considérer l'espace et l'action de manière conjointe à partir des limites et des apports que l'un parait offrir à l'autre. L'idée est d'associer les réflexions qui dérivent du spatial turn avec celles des spécialistes qui travaillent plus spécifiquement sur la définition d'agency. Les participants sont toutefois invités à laisser librement interagir ces différentes dimensions avec les perspectives et les instruments qu'ils pensent être les plus adéquats à leur propos. En plus de l'anthropologie (de l'espace, du quotidien, du langage, etc.), nous comptons recevoir des propositions qui s’appuient sur les modèles d'analyse provenant de la linguistique, de la géographie, des études culturelles, de la sémiotique textuelle et de la sémiotique culturelle. Sont encouragées aussi bien des études à caractère théorique que des études de cas.
