    Call for papers - Europe

    Make our own Walter Benjamin's “Experience and Poverty” ?

    We are not in 1933, nor are we threatened, here in Europe, as Walter Benjamin was when, between two apocalypses and already in exile, in an indifference due to historical circumstances, he published his short and incisive text « Experience and Poverty » in a Prague’s newspaper with short-lived existence. However, isn’t the assessment he made of an alliance, by the great creators, between « a total disenchantment about the age » and, nevertheless, « an unlimited commitment to it » also ours ? Not still ours (the Shoah and other catastrophes have shaken up, since then, the order of the thinkable), but again ours, as if we were at the point where, undertaking our poverty today or, disarming voluntarily, would be the lifeline, the way out to escape the inertia promised by a dark future.

    Conference, symposium - Representation

    Commitment and phototext

    From militantism to the fight for visibility

    Le colloque international entend dresser un panorama de cent ans de luttes par la photographie et le texte, depuis le photomontage militant jusqu’aux stratégies de visibilité sur les réseaux sociaux. Il s'inscrit dans le champ pluridisciplinaire des visual studies, à la croisée de l'histoire de l'art, la littérature et l'analyse du discours. À l'heure des commémorations de « mai 68 », il entend interroger la médiation des luttes au-delà de l'évenement et sur le long cours, depuis les luttes de classe et ouvrières au début du XXe siècle jusqu'aux stratégies de médiatisation et de visibilité pour l'égalité des droits.

    Singularity and solidarity

    Literature, arts and societies in the British Isles, 19th, 20th, 21st centuries

    Ce colloque prolonge les travaux de deux séminaires communs aux laboratoires « Cultures anglo-saxonnes » (CAS, université Toulouse 2 Jean Jaurès) et Études montpelliéraines du monde anglophone (EMMA, université Paul-Valéry Montpellier 3), portant respectivement sur la littérature et les arts, et sur la civilisation britannique.
