National identities and regional identities in the French-speaking space
Europe and North America from the 1960s to the present day
Après les premières vagues de revendications identitaires du tournant des XIXe et XXe siècles, puis de l’entre-deux-guerres, les années 1960 voient la renaissance et la multiplication des mouvements d’affirmation particulariste en Europe comme en Amérique du Nord. Nous nous limiterons ici aux espaces de la francophonie, qui offrent un vaste champ d’études cohérent, mais cela n’empêchera pas – elle sera bien au contraire encouragée – une mise en perspective grâce à l’étude succincte d’autres aires géographiques et civilisationnelles.

Cultural spaces and issues in Louisiana, from its foundation to the present day
Depuis le XVIIIe siècle, la Louisiane a occupé et investi des espaces variés ; espaces géographiques, certes, mais également symboliques. La diversité et la complexité des espaces et des expériences en Louisiane ont soulevé et soulèvent encore aujourd’hui bien des enjeux en histoire culturelle. Cette journée d’étude vise à présenter une mise au point des avancées historiographiques. L’événement viendra également inaugurer le volet recherche du Centre interordre d’études louisianaises de l’université de Sherbrooke et du Cégep de Sherbrooke.

Spaces and cultural issues in Louisiana
From its foundation to today
Depuis le XVIIIe siècle, la Louisiane a occupé et investi des espaces variés ; espaces géographiques, mais également symboliques. Si la Louisiane coloniale représente un espace souvent indéfini, mouvant et immense, la Louisiane post-1803 s'avère beaucoup plus restreinte, contenue dans un État bien distinct. Qu'il soit clairement défini ou non, l’espace louisianais s’est toujours caractérisé par une multiplicité de rencontres et d’échanges ; religieux, linguistiques, ethniques ou encore politiques. C’est un espace subdivisé en zones urbaines et rurales toujours connectées à un monde atlantique en perpétuelle redéfinition qui, comme l’a récemment formulé Cécile Vidal, devient un véritable carrefour transatlantique. La diversité et la complexité des espaces et des expériences en Louisiane ont soulevé et soulèvent encore aujourd’hui bien des enjeux en histoire culturelle.

American Art in Dialogue with Africa and the African Diaspora
Since the beginning of the transatlantic slave trade, Africa has played an important — albeit shifting, contested, and often unseen — role in the history of art of the United States. Conference organizers seek original, innovative scholarship investigating heretofore unexamined aspects of this transatlantic dialogue, from the visual culture of slavery and abolitionism to American modernism; from the Black Arts Movement to the contemporary art world. -
