  The Berlin Airlift

  A Realm of Memory of the Cold War

  Whether or not “the entire world” was looking at Berlin, as Reuter asserted, is one of the central questions to be addressed at our conference. Starting from the “frontline city” of Berlin, we will cast our glance to West Germany and its neighboring countries in order not only to frame the Berlin Airlift as a transnational memorial of the Cold War, but also to address, from outside, the question of whether Berlin was really the international focus of the East-West conflict back then, as the press and academia so often portray it.

  Call for papers - Middle Ages

  Empire of letters and Tigers of parchment

  International Medieval Congress

  Script is not a neutral communication medium. Scripts were particularly used throughout the Middle Ages to stage the idea of Empire, power and domination. The writing has the ability to connote authority and Empire and to inspire respect. On the other hand, the scriptural domain is a world in itself with its coherence and history. The idea of an ‘Empire of letters’ may have emerged within this world too. Both parts of this “empire of letters” are relevant for the palaeographical sessions on the specific thematic strand of ‘Empire’ organised at the International Medieval Congress 2014 in Leeds and sponsored by Apices and Cap Digital.

  Defenders of Peace 1899-1917

  Ce colloque, à l'occasion du centenaire de la première guerre mondiale, entend réflechir sur l'échec de la paix en s'intéressant à l'action de tous ceux et de toutes celles qui, dans les différents pays d'Europe et du monde, ont cherché à empêcher l'éclatement d'une guerre européenne ou ont cherché à en interrompre le cours. Le champ de recherches inclut toutes les sensibilités de paix émanant d'horizons politiques et de milieux sociaux très divers. Il s'attache aussi bien aux personnalités et militants qu'aux lieux et réseaux de défense de la paix, aux initiatives, évènements, manifestations et tentatives de paix, aux relations des pacifistes avec les États, aux idées, débats et controverses, enfin aux sensibilités et dimensions affectives, aux désirs de paix.
