Les Cahiers d’études des cultures ibériques et latino-américaines (CECIL)
The problem of representation is central to the disciplinary fields of all the human and social sciences, most often implicitly. This omnipresence sometimes makes us forget that it is a notion whose definition, status and function are subject to the fluctuations of history. What interests us is the discrepancy between what this notion has been able to encompass over time and what it encompasses nowadays, as well as the explanation that can be given to these discrepancies or possible ruptures. The reflection focuses in particular on the link between the notion of representation and the notions of 'heritage' - tangible or intangible objects, but also products of a social construction - and of 'memory', since it is constructed through concrete representations, whether social or discursive practices.

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 2nd 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”).

Tradition and transmission
Les rencontres des groupes de travail « épistolographie pontificale » (dir. Pr. Dr. K. Herbers) et « querelle adoptianiste » (dir. Dr. F. Close) visent à stimuler leurs travaux collectifs et individuels respectifs par un temps de réflexion méthodologique et épistémologique sur le genre épistolaire, en particulier sur les lettres élaborées en milieu pontifical ou en marge de celui-ci au haut Moyen Âge, animés par deux experts extérieurs au projet. Les responsables de ces deux axes souhaitent envisager ensemble les questions de tradition et de transmission des lettres, non seulement dans leur aspect matériel, mais surtout, en tant que témoins de la réception et de la portée, tant immédiate que dans le temps long, de leur contenu. On s’interrogera donc sur les critères de sélections, les modalités de conservation et l’attachement porté à la diffusion de ces lettres émanant des papes, principalement ceux du IXe siècle, ou des protagonistes de la querelle théologique dite adoptianiste de la dernière décennie du VIIIe siècle.

Lectures et écritures féminines de la Bible en Europe (XIVe-XVIIe siècle)
Dans le cadre de l’axe de recherche « Profane et sacré dans la culture européenne des XIVe-XVIIe siècle » et plus précisément de la réflexion sur « Culture et bible », une journée d’étude est organisée au CESR sur la question du rapport des femmes à la bible en Europe entre le XIVe et le XVIIe siècle. La période est tout entière traversée, depuis la devotio moderna jusqu’aux Réformes, par des courants d’intense aspiration au renouveau spirituel et à la réforme de l’Église et de la société chrétienne. Dans ce contexte, la diffusion de la bible, de son texte et de ses contenus, soutenue par l’affirmation des langues vernaculaires puis par l’essor du livre imprimé, concerne un public de religieux et de laïcs qui va s’élargissant et se diversifiant.
