  Writing the native country - the literature of proximity in the European French-speaking space

  The literature of proximity in the European French-speaking space (1880-1980)

  Ce colloque vise à définir, nommer et mieux comprendre les pratiques littéraires présentant une inscription spatiale et/ou une proximité sociale entre un auteur et ses contemporains. Sans se limiter à l’étude de genres précis (roman, théâtre, poésie, presse…), il s’agira de chercher à comprendre les enjeux littéraires et sociaux que ces pratiques littéraires du proche impliquent.

  The making of cultural policies

  Trans-Acting Matters: Areas and Eras of a (Post-)Ottoman Globalization

  This workshop takes place in the framework of the research project “Trans-Acting Matters: Areas and Eras of a (Post-)Ottoman Globalization”. It aims to analyse the making of cultural policies and actions in Turkey and the post-ottoman spaces. We wish to question the ways in which the circulations participate in the construction of cultural policies today as well as to rethink the earlier cultural policies and actions from the late Ottoman Empire onwards. The workshop attempts to question the co-production of cultural policies, of their spaces and territories, as well as the plurality of the conceptions of culture carried by cultural policies. The workshop will focus on the phenomena of hybridity, of connections, and associations of various actors which co-produce original forms of cultural policies.

  What do Europeans dream of?

  The collective imagination of European peoples since 1945

  Les fondateurs de l’Europe ont fait rêver les peuples à une richesse culturelle commune. Aujourd’hui, quand l’Europe rencontre de plus en plus de difficultés, a-t-elle cessé de faire rêver ? L’opinion générale aurait tendance à l’affirmer. Mais si la question est « De quoi rêvent les Européens aujourd’hui ? », les réponses paraissent aussitôt moins évidentes et les sentiers de la recherche porteurs d’hypothèses nouvelles.
