  Soldiers, prisoners and converts between permeable borders in the Mare Nostrum (16th-18th centuries)

  The COST Action “Islamic Legacy: Narratives East, West, South, North of the Mediterranean (1350-1750)” [CA 18129] is launching a call for a conference “Soldiers, prisoners and converts between permeable borders in the Mare Nostrum (16th-18th centuries)”. The event that we are disseminating is being organised within this project, which as the purpose to provide a transnational and interdisciplinary approach capable of overcoming the segmentation that currently characterizes the study of relations between Christianity and Islam in late medieval and early modern Europe and the Mediterranean. We aim to create a network that will help to provide a comprehensive understanding of past relations between Christianity and Islam in the European context through the addressing of three main research problems: otherness, migration and borders.

  Study days - Education

  School and minorities in Germanic countries (18th-21st centuries)

  Cette journée d’étude internationale s’interrogera sur la place des minorités culturelles, ethniques ou religieuses dans l’espace scolaire des pays germaniques, du XVIII^e siècle à aujourd’hui. Bi- ou multiculturalisme, affirmation ou gommage des différences, parcours d’intégration et de réussite sociale ou au contraire repli identitaire, toutes ces questions passent par l’institution scolaire, quelle que soit sa tutelle. La manifestation n’entend certes pas épuiser une problématique très complexe, car située au carrefour de l’institutionnel, du culturel, des traditions historiques, du politique, du religieux et du social. Mais elle se propose de faire mieux connaître les enjeux tels qu’ils se présentent dans l’aire culturelle et linguistique germanique, de l’émancipation des juifs allemands dans la Prusse des Lumières à l’intégration des minorités musulmanes dans l’Allemagne actuelle, en passant par la problématique huguenote ou sorabe, et avec une incursion dans le système scolaire français face à la minorité linguistique alsacienne. Dans le sens de ce rapprochement, la journée se clôturera par une table ronde réunissant différents acteurs du monde éducatif autour du défi de la prise en compte des minorités dans les systèmes scolaires français et allemands d’hier, d’aujourd’hui et de demain.

  Conference, symposium - Representation

  Nature(s): Designing, Experiencing, Representing the natural environment (18th to 21st centuries)

  The international conference "Nature(s)" which will be held on June 6-8th, 2013 and will coincide with other cultural and scientific events in Nantes as a "European Green Capital", will question what is really at stake when human beings consciously deal with nature and natural spaces, especially in an urban context. Over the centuries, how have writers, artists, painters or landscape planners been grappling with nature in a rapidly growing urban world, and how did they question the way in which human beings lived but also dreamt their future?
