  Untranslatable realities? Translation through the prism of the social sciences from Antiquity to the present day

  Autumn schoo at the Centre d'études franco-russe de Moscou (CEFR)

  Inscrit dans le cadre de l’année franco-russe des langues et des littératures, cet appel à communication pour une école d’automne en sciences sociales organisée par le Centre d'études franco-russe de Moscou (CEFR) propose d’utiliser la traduction comme point d’entrée d’une réflexion sur les sources, méthodes et théories en sciences sociales. L'ambition de cette école est d’aborder la question de la traduction d’un point de vue non exclusivement linguistique et littéraire. En rassemblant des chercheurs en sciences sociales et des traducteurs, l’enjeu sera d’engager une réflexion et un dialogue sur la traduction comprise tant comme un objet de recherche que comme une pratique.

  The circulation of linguistic and philological knowledge between Germany and the world, 16th to 20th century

  By all measures, Germany played an overwhelming role in the development of philology and linguistics during the 19th century. This ascendancy rests on the transmission to other national academies of theoretical constructs and views, methods and institutional practices. On the other hand, German philological and linguistic ideas, methods and institutions were not constituted in isolation from the rest of the world : Transfers to the German-speaking world must also be taken into account.

  The disciplinary constitution of the humanities and social sciences in 19th and 20th century Greece: National traditions and transnational movements

  25th Modern Greek Studies Conference of French-speaking universities

  The biennial Congress of French-speaking Modern Greek Studies scholars will take place from October 12^th to October 14^th, 2017 in Aix-en-Provence. Its aim is to bring together researchers from every domain of the humanities and social sciences. The issue at the heart of this 15^th Congress is the historical progress of certain areas of study towards the status of full-fledged disciplines of the humanities and social sciences in Greece from the moment of the establishment of the Greek state (1830) and within a context allowing the study of this phenomenon in both its regional and its international dimensions.

   

  The works of the Congress will be organized around the following themes:

  1. The emergence, institutionalization, reproduction and diffusion of disciplinary bodies of knowledge.

  2. The way each discipline positions itself with relation to other fields of knowledge and implements its theoretical foundations

  3. The processes of establishing legitimacy for the new disciplines and for the groups framing them

  4. Disciplinarization and the field of Modern Greek Studies

   

  Abstracts must be submitted before February 28^th, 2017, in either French or English.
