    New Perspectives on Censorship in Early Modern England

    Literature, Politics and Religion

    Placed under the aegis of the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), this international conference will reassess the notion and the hermeneutics of censorship in early modern England. How was censorship organized? Did it prevent or promote creativity? Why and when did writers decide to enter "the safe territory of the oblique" (Annabel Patterson)? Participants are invited to provide a variety of interpretative answers and to develop a new understanding of how censorship refashioned the social, political and artistic life of Shakespeare's contemporaries.

    Epistemological overabundance between art and science in early modernism

    Un appel à contribution pour un colloque qui unira des historiens de l'art, des sciences et des idées, autour des stratégies visuelles employées aux XVIe et XVIIe siècles pour faire face à la surabondance épistémologique exceptionnelle de cette ère. À cette époque, l'optimisme quant aux perspectives ouvertes par les nouveaux savoirs était inextricablement mêlé aux craintes d'avoir « trop à savoir » – ainsi qu'à la difficulté à comprendre, sélectionner et organiser des informations en quantité constamment croissante. À l'époque, comme aujourd'hui, les artistes et les chercheurs étaient à la pointe de l'entreprise visant à digérer et à discipliner les savoirs – ou, à l'inverse, cherchant à dénoncer sa surabondance et à exprimer l'inévitable échec humain à organiser tout ce que l'on sait et à y donner un sens.
