Archives, the Digital Turn and Governance in Africa
“History in Africa” Journal
This featured section of History in Africa will address the wave of digitisation of archives in Africa over the last fifteen years. With the rise of information technologies, an increasing part of public – and to some extent private - African archives are being digitised and made accessible on the internet. This wave of digitisation is usually seen as a progress with the help of ambitious initiatives applying new technologies to cultural heritage of humanity such as the rescue of the manuscripts of Timbuktu or the Endangered Archives programme at the British Library. Yet as much as these new technologies raise enthusiasm, they also prompt discussions amongst researchers and archivists, which go from intellectual property to sovereignty and governance.

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.

How to make the peripheral "mainstream"
Recent develpments in the historiography of science
Ces dernières années, le développement des études sur l’histoire des sciences dans les régions du monde dont on a longtemps considéré qu’elles n’avaient pas contribué de manière significative au développement historique des sciences s’est accompagné d’une réflexion historiographique approfondie. Ce colloque vise à formuler et discuter des propositions pour placer ces travaux et problématiques de recherche vus comme périphériques au centre de l'histoire des sciences. -

Study days - Prehistory and Antiquity
Table ronde franco-espagnole organisée par le musée d'Aquitaine et l'Institut Cervantès de Bordeaux
L’expression « homme préhistorique » est utilisée depuis la naissance de la préhistoire comme science. Les recherches, faites par des préhistoriens hommes, ne permettaient pas d’appréhender la place des femmes dans les sociétés préhistoriques. Longtemps, les femmes n’ont eu comme images que les Vénus, statuettes ou gravures, liées à la fécondité. De nouvelles approches remettent en cause cette vision déformée des groupes préhistoriques. Cette table ronde abordera l’histoire des idées et des méthodes en préhistoire, ou comment les préjugés ont influencé nos connaissances et sur l’étude du sexe social dans les sociétés paléolithiques, à partir des représentations artistiques et de l’étude des sépultures afin de mieux comprendre les relations hommes-femmes au Paléolithique. -
