Imagining the Future of Multilingualism
Education and Society at a Turning Point
Since 2008, the Conseil Européen pour les Langues / European Language Council (CEL/ELC) has hosted a Forum every two years. These Fora seek to bring together representatives of higher education institutions, of European institutions and organisations, such as, for example, the European Commission, the European Parliament, and the Council of Europe, and of European associations like the European University Association (EUA) as well as scholars with a special interest in European integration, policy development, and multilingualism. At the centre of 2020 discussions will be the role that Higher Education can and should play in the promotion and development of multilingualism as a key aspect of European cooperation – related to facets such as language policy, internationalisation, language and knowledge, education and mobility, to mention just a few. In this context, participants will also reflect on the future role of the CEL/ELC by identifying and analysing new challenges that have arisen in our changing world.

Narrative folklore in becoming: persistance and innovations
In a comparative perspective on the very long distance, the conference invites specialists in the field of Alpine narrative, western, central and eastern, to discuss with their colleagues who work on the Pyrenees and the Himalayas, via the Corsica, the Apennines or the Balkans. The main aim is to draw up new reflections on the evolution of these narrative practices and to understand their changing, profoundly heterogeneous, but at the same time universal.

Udine
Since the 1960s there has been much critical reflection on the figure of the author, and this has been analysed from several angles in linguistic and literary studies as well as more recent forms of web writing in the wake of the digital revolution. First, structuralism and Saussurian theory laid the groundwork for the renewal of Literary theory. The “death of the author” propounded by Barthes (1961) offered the chance to redefine the essence, the role and the status of the author. The first person to accept this challenge was Michel Foucault, during his lecture Qu’est-ce qu’un auteur? at Collège de France, on 22 February 1969. Beyond the limits of historical and ideologically connoted analysis, debate on the matter is far from settled. On the contrary, the authorial question offers food for thought in different fields of linguistics, philology and literature. If the modern concept of author called for reflection on Beckett’s provocative “qu’importe qui parle?”, even today the number of issues that can be investigated in relation to the author prove how important this is for all three aforementioned disciplines.

Intersections. New perspectives for public humanities
HFC-INT 2020
The international network Humanities for Change, in accordance with the interdisciplinary spirit and the contaminatory approach that characterize its activities, intends to organize a day of study on the theme of public humanities. The meeting aims to stimulate some reflections coming from different fields of knowledge and to encourage the dialogue between researchers on the possibilities of the humanities to escape from academic circles. In this sense, the main object of study is the analysis of methodologies and tools related to knowledge dissemination practices for historical, artistic and philological-literary disciplines. Particular attention will also be given to new professional figures connected to the degree courses of the humanities faculties (such as the 'public historian') and to the interactions of these professional figures with the new media of communication and mass dissemination.

From ritual to myth: Carnival in European culture
D’où vient la profonde exigence sociale du carnaval et quels sont les thèmes et les motifs que cette tradition a fait émerger dans notre héritage culturel et artistique ? Du drame bouffon à la farce et à la grande tradition de la commedia dell’arte italienne, des observations de Goethe sur le carnaval de Rome aux compositions de Schumann (Carnaval, op. 9) et de Saint-Saëns (Le Carnaval des Animaux), jusqu’à la peinture de Brueghel l’Ancien, Monet, Pissarro et Elrond, le carnaval a fasciné de nombreux auteurs. Le but de ce colloque est de recueillir et de combiner des idées innovatrices pour l’analyse ou la reformulation de ce mythe, en créant un pont entre les perspectives de lecture les plus diverses dans le domaine des humanités.

Contending Representations: Questioning Republicanism in Early Modern Genoa (1559-1684)
In the past thirty years, several studies have been devoted to the political and cultural flowering of the republic of Genoa during the so-called ‘siglo de los Genoveses’, between 1528 and 1630, when Genoa became the hub of European trade and an important epicenter of artistic and literary production. Yet little attention has been granted to the cultural and economic crisis that followed or to how Genoese republican state power was represented during the long seventeenth century, especially in relation to neighbouring polities. To address this gap, the conference will explore how the Genoese Republic shaped its political image between 1559 – the year of the publication of Oberto Foglietta’s Delle cose della repubblica di Genova – and 1684, when Genoa was bombed by the French. We intend to address questions such as how did Genoese politicians and men of letters represent their homeland? How was Genoa represented by the Genoese community in Spain or in the Low Countries? How was its political system conceived by other Italian and non-Italian political writers? And how did prevailing depictions of absolutism influence republican rhetoric?

MemWar. Memory and forgetting of war and trauma in the 20th century
Le XXIe siècle nait de l’histoire tourmentée du XXe, avec ses deux guerres mondiales et les autres conflits de dimension européenne, comme la Guerre civile espagnole. Ce colloque, organisé par le groupe de recherche « MemWar. Mémoires et oublis des guerres et des traumatismes du XXe siècle » du Département de Langues et cultures modernes de l’Université de Gênes, vise à analyser les modalités de transmission mémorielle de ces conflits au XXIe siècle, les représentations de ces derniers, les points aveugles et/ou obscurs de ce processus mémoriel, y compris dans une optique critique (Ricoeur, 2003) et, enfin, comment se développent les rapports de force entre discours officiel et contre-discours.

The Becoming of Congo: Epistemologies, Practices, and Imaginaries
V International Congo Research Network Congress (15-16 September 2020)
The conference aims to bring together junior and senior scholars across the humanities and social sciences, sharing a common interest in the DRC. It specifically aims to provide space for transdisciplinary and comparative analyses and reflections, within and beyond Congolese Studies. This edition of the Congo Research network (CRN) focuses on the concept of “becoming”: the becoming of research on/around the Congo (new paths and new relations between "knowledges/epistemologies" and agents—academics, artists, writers, cultural operators, journalists and bloggers, activists and others); the becoming of Congolese culture (new places of creation and exhibition, new ways of sharing/transmitting knowledge and cultural practices); the becoming of land and questions of mobility, not only in the Congo, but also in Africa and the world (climate change and social justice).

The transformations of Literature and Art Criticism in periodicals between the 18th and the 21st century
Although unquestionably all-pervasive within the history of modern and contemporary press, the ‘review form’ has been to present an understudied practice. In fact, this multi-faceted, cross-disciplinary form that has persistently accompanied the different phases in the evolution of “print-capitalism” has hardly been analysed from a theoretical perspective. This dismissal by the academic world is certainly peculiar, if not manifestly contradictory; however, it significantly testifies of the difficulty of investigating such a slippery object of study critically.

Grey linguistics. Appraisals and their contribution to the history of linguistics
ICHoLS XV / workshop
L’atelier se propose de délivrer le compte-rendu d’ouvrage (CR) de son statut de genre intermédiaire, marginal et méconnu (« unsung », Hyland 2000 : 43) au sein de l’historiographie linguistique. S’il est vrai que dans la construction du savoir scientifique son rôle n’est pas comparable à celui de l’article, néanmoins le CR constitue un lieu stratégique où les savants, au-delà des jugements techniques, manifestent ou consolident leur allégeance à un groupe particulier, engagent des relations personnelles, bousculent les frontières disciplinaires.

Writings by music-lovers - translating musical memories
Notre projet vise l’étude des formes de la musicographie, et plus particulièrement la façon dont l’écriture traduit et transpose les émotions provoquées par la musique. En effet, la mélomanie et la question de l’émotion musicale forment le nœud d’un paradoxe : s’il semble évident que le désir d’écrire sur la musique découle d’un plaisir de l’écoute, et d’une mélomanie plus ou moins affirmée, la critique musicale, depuis le début du XXe siècle, s’est pourtant montrée très méfiante envers le langage des sentiments et des émotions subjectives. À cette méfiance institutionnelle s’ajoute une difficulté : la question de l’« émotion musicale » est complexe, car le rapport de la musique aux émotions s’est profondément modifié à travers le temps.

Venezia Novecento: le voci di Paola Masino e Milena Milani
Il convegno ha lo scopo d’indagare il rapporto di Paola Masino e Milena Milani con Venezia, portando in primo piano una comune esperienza d’esilio imposto dal fascismo e mettendo in luce inediti legami all’interno di una comunità artistica che le vide partecipi tra primo e secondo Novecento. Paola Masino (1908-1989) visse un periodo d'esilio nella città lagunare, a fianco del compagno Massimo Bontempelli. Qui trovarono inizio le sue riflessioni sulla relazione donna-società, venne concepito il romanzo Nascita e morte della massaia e l'autrice ebbe l'opportunità di incontrare vari intellettuali, tra cui Anna Maria Ortese. Anche per Milena Milani (1917-2013) Venezia fu un luogo di scambio con figure del panorama dell’arte, uno spazio di costruzione della propria poetica nonché sede privilegiata del mestiere di giornalista e traduttrice per il Cavallino di Carlo Cardazzo. In città pubblicò le prime raccolte di poesia e racconti, tra cui Ignoti furono i cieli (1944), ambientò La ragazza di nome Giulio (1964) e fu operatrice culturale.

Florence, a city of art and the French - the creation of a myth
La création d'un mythe
Ce colloque s’intéresse au rôle des Français dans la construction d’un mythe de Florence comme « ville d’art » à travers l’histoire, la littérature et les diverses formes de production artistique. À Florence, plus que partout ailleurs en Italie, la beauté de la ville, le paysage urbain, les grands artistes et leurs chefs-d’œuvre ont fait l’objet d’un véritable processus de mythification culturelle en Europe à partir du XIXe siècle. Florence apparaît ainsi dans la culture française comme un lieu central et idéal dont le souvenir et les représentations infusent très largement la conception générale des arts, de la Renaissance italienne ou encore du génie artistique.

The postmodern condition. Forty years on
Après 40 ans de la publication de La Condition postmoderne de Jean-François Lyotard, le colloque entend relancer la réflexion sur un concept qui, depuis près de trois décennies, a guidé l’interprétation de la structure politico-économique de la société occidentale, de ses dynamiques sociales et de sa production artistique et culturelle. Le colloque, ouvert à tous les domaines disciplinaires, a donc l’intention de partir du débat le plus récent afin d’interroger la dynamique et la physionomie de cette fin (ou de ce désir de « faire finir »), ses motivations (crise ? épuisement ?) et ses conséquences, ainsi que ses implications paradoxales : vu que le postmoderne est resté, grâce aux discours sur sa fin, au centre du débat sur le contemporain.
