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.

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.

Scuola estiva internazionale di Studi leopardiani, pascoliani e montaliani

La “scuola estiva internazionale di Studi leopardiani, pascoliani e montaliani”, di cui ricorre nel 2019 la IV edizione, è un’iniziativa accademica che, attraverso un ciclo intensivo di lezioni, intende approfondire la conoscenza del pensiero e dell’opera di tre dei più importanti poeti italiani dell’Ottocento e del Novecento: Giacomo Leopardi (1798-1837), Giovanni Pascoli (1855-1912) ed Eugenio Montale (1896-1981; premio Nobel per la Letteratura nel 1975). La scuola si configura come occasione di incontro tra nuove generazioni di studiosi (o di aspiranti tali), di studenti e di insegnanti da una parte e maestri accreditati (docenti universitari strutturati) dall’altra

Political Proust from the Europe of Goncourt 1919 to the Europe of 2019

Le colloque a pour objectif d’examiner l’écho de l’œuvre de Proust sur d’autres auteurs, contemporains ou postérieurs à lui, pour étudier quelles politiques se dessinent dans les œuvres. Il vise à réenclencher les études proustiennes sur l’histoire, en étudiant les discours, les actions et les affects investis dans l’engagement littéraire, qu’il s’agisse de celui de Proust, de celui qu’il a inspiré ou de celui qu’on lui a dénié. Enfin, on examinera dans quelle mesure Proust peut, ou non, constituer une ressource vitale en temps de désastre.

First Biennial International Conference on Eugenio Montale

Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1975, Eugenio Montale (1896-1981) spent thirty-three years of his life in Milan (more than a third of his entire existence), from 1948, when at the age of fifty-two he was taken on by “Corriere della Sera”, until his death in a Milanese hospital at the age of eighty-five. During this protracted residency in Milan, Montale published all his major poetic collections except Ossi di seppia and Le occasioni.

Interarts - mimetic hypertextuality between rewritings and allographic continuity

The last decades have seen an increase in the number of publications concerned with the theme of trans-textuality, meaning the conscious reuse of themes and subjects. A widespread practice during the seventeenth and eighteenth century, trans-textuality was interrupted during the Romantic age only to be relentlessly resumed until becoming, today, a real trend in literature and other arts, overlapping genres and artistic expressions.

Hermeneutics of symbol, myth and “modernity of Antiquity” in Italian Literature and the Arts from the Renaissance up to the present day

The hermeneutics of the “modernity of antiquity” is a still pioneering branch of research in Italian literature and art studies. Its aim is to discover the hidden meaning of works of literature and arts where other approaches failed or proved unsatisfactory.

Simbolo, mito e «modernità» dell’antico nella Letteratura italiana e nelle arti dal Rinascimento ai giorni nostri

III congresso internazionale di studi ermeneutici

Quello della «Modernità simbolico-mitologica dell’antico nella Letteratura italiana e nelle Arti» è un filone ermeutico interdisciplinare, che si avvale della storia delle religioni antiche e delle sue fonti come precipua chiave di decifrazione di opere sia letterarie sia artistiche di tutti i tempi: opere semanticamente oscure ed enigmatiche perché – insospettabilmente per la gran parte dei lettori – sono state concepite dai rispetivi autori in prospettiva cripto-pagana, avvalendosi pertanto di concetti e di fonti prelevati dalle antiche religioni pagane, sia mediterranee sia non mediterranee, o dalle eresie del cristianesimo e delle altre religioni (argomenti, questi, nel complesso di norma poco conosciuti sia dai letterati sia dagli studiosi di discipline artistiche).
