History of Science, History of Text
The seminar examines the various types of documents produced in the context of scholarly practices in order to understand how the shaping of textual forms and inscriptions is part of the scientific activity. The seminar also aims to understand how these works make it possible to better interpret the sources on which historians of science draw to conduct their research.

Postdoctoral Position in History of Sciences
Le projet PrehisTropic (Préhistoire sous les tropiques. Peuplements, adaptations, comportements en milieu tropical et subtropical sur le temps long) propose un contrat post-doctoral 2019 en histoire des sciences. Les recherches sur la préhistoire des zones tropicales et subtropicales se développent considérablement depuis quelques décennies, mais elles restent en France relativement isolées les unes des autres, s’attachant principalement à des problématiques régionales.

Conference, symposium - Modern
Limits of the western police model in China
In the past 20 years, the Research Center on Shanghai History (ECNU) and the Lyon Institute of East Asian Studies (IAO) have established close cooperative relations : joint projects, joint publications, joints conferences, as well as the co-training of graduate students have become significant and regular markers of increasingly close relationships. On this basis we hope to further co-promote Shanghai and Tianjin as centers of new urban history and social order. This project will avail new archival materials (municipalities archives), memoirs of policemen, photography, illustrated journals, correspondances, police reports etc…

Operative knowledges of matter, from Renaissance to industrialization
Following the renewal of the history of Technology and of the history of chemistry, this Research Seminar intends to explore operative knowledge in chemistry in connection with several fields including economics, political management, consumption and production processes. It seeks to shed a light, since the Early modern period, on various configurations where experimentation, exploration, transformation of Matter were held, through a wide range of technical devices.

Conference, symposium - Representation
The development of art history as a discipline during the 19th century has been variously associated with the politics of national identity, the needs of a growing bourgeois public in search of cultural capital, or of an expanding art market. However, the role of art training, and art practitioners themselves in the shaping of the discipline remains unexamined. Courses in art history had been systematically introduced in the curricula of art and architecture academies since the late 18th century, and spaces of art education count among the first institutional homes of the discipline, well before the establishment of autonomous university chairs. This conference aims to explore the interactions and productive tensions between art practice and art scholarship in the 19th century.

Circulation and Scientific Institutions
The Americas, Western Europe, South Asia (1750s-1914)
While historians should take into account the movements in space that constantly transform sciences, they should not lose sight of the specific locations dedicated to the daily work of scientists. In scientific facilities (museums, laboratories, hospitals, etc.), modern scientists use their research instruments, meet with members of their networks, teach, and interact with various actors from outside of their scientific community. Participants in this symposium will seek how to write the history of this dynamic between circulation and institutions of science.

Global history and social: the issues of a dialogue
Doctoral workshop
Quelles sont les conditions d'écriture d'une histoire globale localisée dans la densité des terrains et des tissus sociaux? Cet atelier doctoral entend aborder les enjeux de la réception d'un courant historiographique venu du monde anglo-saxon par les historiographies européennes au cours des vingt dernières années. Grâce à l'éclairage d'historiens spécialistes de la Méditerranée, de l'Afrique, de l'Amérique et de l'Asie, il s'agit de donner aux participants les clés pour comprendre les débats actuels et des pistes pour renouveler ces approches.

Museum collections as historical sources
Naturalist knowledge and environmental dynamics
Les collections des musées d’histoire naturelle représentent des sources nouvelles en histoire environnementale comme en histoire des sciences. Elles permettent d'éclairer les pratiques de terrain des scientifiques, de leurs « collaborateurs » et de collecteurs plus anonymes. Mais il est nécessaire de contextualiser les indications livrées par les métadonnées accompagnant les objets des collections à partir des écrits des différents acteurs impliqués dans les collectes d’objets et d’espèces végétales ou animales. Comment ces collections et les écrits associés peuvent-ils servir à reconstituer l’élaboration des savoirs naturalistes et leur évolution du XVIIe au XXe siècle ? Comment peuvent-ils aider à saisir la dynamique des écosystèmes ?

1st East and West Conference on Translation Studies
This conference aims to provide a biannual forum for East and West dialogue on Translation Studies. This inaugural edition will be dedicated to “Translation History Matters” and welcomes contributions addressing issues related (though not circumscribed) to translation history, historiography and metahistoriography. Centred on translation understood as an intentional phenomenon of human and mostly intercultural communication, this conference aims to focus on the role played by translation in Eastern and Western cultural practices and encounters through history as well as on the role of history to understand both translation and translation studies. By bringing together Eastern and Western views on a multitude of translation history matters, this conference aims to stress why, how and for which purposes translation history matters.

Call for applications post-doctoral researchers and doctoral student
The project Ptolemaeus Arabus et Latinus (PAL) is dedicated to the edition and study of the Arabic and Latin versions of Ptolemy’s astronomical and astrological texts and related material. These include works by Ptolemy or attributed to him, commentaries thereupon and other works that are of immediate relevance to understanding Ptolemy’s heritage in the Middle Ages and the Early Modern period up to 1700 A.D.

We intend in this workshop to reconsider how new technologies flow and circulate around the globe. One cannot ignore the obvious fact that we are seeing the emergence of new technological and industrial centres which accompany the rapid redistribution of economic power around the world; but one should also take into account the fact that technology is – and has always been – flowing and circulating in much more unexpected ways than predicted by the old-fashioned diffusionist models which are still prevalent, even in these times of globalisation. By privileging in this workshop (and in our collective project) a comparative approach between three very different geographical regions – South Asia, the Middle East and Europe – we hope to be able to propose an approach to technological flow, which will be sufficiently global and comparative, for going beyond the specificities of any particular culture or society, and which may really better help us understand the dynamics of technological circulations and the processes by which technologies are reinvented in different locations. -

Migration des savoirs, transfert des connaissances, transmission des sagesses
Entre Mer de Chine et Méditerranée
Dans l’immense espace eurasien, de la plus haute Antiquité à nos jours, les cheminements de connaissances, de savoirs et de sagesses sont incessants et multidirectionnels, intra et extra régionaux ou continentaux. Ils touchent tous les domaines scientifiques, et peuvent également concerner des savoir-faire, voire des savoir-être. Si ces mouvements, du moins dans leurs grandes lignes et leurs principales orientations, commencent à être connus et bien documentés, de nombreuses facettes du phénomène demandent encore à être clarifiées. Au-delà des contenus proprement dit, c’est notamment le cas pour les canaux par lesquels s’opèrent ces transferts, pour les acteurs de ces transmissions, pour les motivations de ces migrations ou encore pour leurs effets. -
