Teaching Gender. Theory and society in the classroom
Now more than ever, gender as an analytical concept is being heavily contested from diverse quarters inside as well as outside academia. The panel discussion addresses key questions of how to teach gender as critical theory in the light of current societal and political tensions on the one hand and institutional constraints inside the university on the other hand. How can we teach “critique”? What does teaching gender mean in terms of methods and topics? And how can we engage in critical research and teaching while responding to societal expectations as to relevant output and knowledge transfer?

In partibus fidelium - missions in the Levant and knowledge of the Christian East
19th-21st centuries
Ce colloque international se penchera sur l’assimilation en Europe de connaissances relatives aux cultures chrétiennes-orientales, à partir surtout du dernier tiers du XIXe siècle, et sur le rôle que les missions ont joué dans ce processus. Ces connaissances nouvelles sont fondées en grande partie sur les travaux menés sur le terrain, au Moyen-Orient, en particulier sur les manuscrits conservés dans les monastères et les patriarcats, et plus généralement sur le patrimoine littéraire, linguistique, archéologique, cartographique et musicologique, des communautés chrétiennes installées.

This monthly seminar will aim to invite researchers to come and present their work in progress or recently published that address the "Arab mathematics", understood in a broad sense to be studied not only mathematics itself, but science "mathematized" of the era, such as astronomy, optics and static; Furthermore, we do not restrict themselves to only written in Arabic mathematics, but we can address their writings in other languages extensions, like Latin, Hebrew and Farsi. The texts studied will be discussed at sessions of three hours. Emphasis on reading and commenting on sources.

Henri Seyrig conference (1895-1973)
Henri Seyrig est étudiant à Oxford en 1914 lorsqu’éclate la guerre. Il s’illustre sur le front de l’Est puis rejoint l’armée d’Orient en Macédoine en 1917. Dès lors passionné par la Grèce, il entre à l’Ecole d’Athènes en 1922 et effectue trois voyages en Syrie entre 1924 et 1928. Directeur des Antiquités de Syrie et du Liban sous mandat français entre 1929 et 1941, il organise les fouilles archéologiques du temple de Bel à Palmyre, du Krak des Chevaliers et du sanctuaire d’Héliopolis à Baalbek. Il encourage l’installation de nombreuses missions étrangères (dont, à Doura Europos, M. Rostovtzeff, Université de Yale). En 1946, la fin des mandats français le conduit à créer l’Institut français d’archéologie à Beyrouth dont il est directeur de sa fondation à 1967. Cette carrière grecque et syrienne a fait d’Henri Seyrig l’un des pères de l’archéologie du Proche-Orient.
