  Noms de dieux !

  Who named the gods? Utterers, addressers, ritual agents

  The ERC MAP Seminar “The Names of the Gods! 5: Who named the gods? Utterers, addressers, ritual agents” pursues the investigation on the systems of naming of the divine. This year, it focuses on the human agents in the process of naming the divine, whether they are producers of a discourse on the deities, addressers in a communication with the deities, or even experts in charge of a ritual knowledge. What agency do men and women exercise in the production of a specific denomination of the divine? How can we question their choices, their anchoring in a tradition or their innovation strategies?

  Gnwt journal - varia

  Gnwt (Genout) est une revue annuelle publiée au mois de septembre. Elle est éditée par le Réseau des enseignants-chercheurs en égyptologie et civilisations d’Afrique noire (RECECAN). Elle publie les articles des domaines des langues, des lettres, des sciences de l’homme et de la société, qui portent de préférence sur l’histoire ancienne de l’Afrique noire. Une rubrique varia peut cependant être consacrée à la diffusion des articles inédits en rapport avec d’autres périodes de l’histoire africaine. Tous ces savoirs doivent néanmoins avoir pour grille de lecture et fil conducteur les sources essentiellement endogènes de première main pouvant contribuer à une meilleure lecture et compréhension du passé séculaire de l’Afrique noire.

  “The Names of the Gods!”

  Exploring the potentials of the name in images, in narratives

  The ERC MAP Seminar “The Names of the Gods! 4: Exploring the potentials of the name in images, in narratives” pursues the investigation on the systems of naming of the divine. By focusing on names, images and narratives, we will look for connections but also discrepancies, in order to highlight, from duly selected cases or files, the specifications of the different languages used to unfold the potentials of the divine names. In the spirit of the MAP project, we will pay special attention to the links that the names, the images and the narratives convey.

  Ancient religion in rural settlements

  XVIII International ARYS Conference

  This conference aims to deconstruct the ideas of rural religion as mechanically reproducing urban rituals and religious hierarchies and of the rural world as a space of cultural and religious resilience against urbanity. Rural areas represented an arena for very situational processes of negotiation between, on the one hand, administrative patterns and related social configurations, and, on the other hand, processes of social conformance to the very characteristics of a local specific rural environment, of adaptation to its peculiar habitus and religious customs, possibly involving gods whose competences directly mirrored a geophysical environment made of mountains, rivers, woods, etc.

  Otherness and religious deviance - for a comparative approach to heresy in the history of religions

  Pour une approche comparatiste de l’hérésie en histoire des religions

  Ce colloque international réunira des conférenciers japonais et européens. Le but est d'entamer une réflexion sur l'hérésie comme catégorie conceptuelle en histoire et en histoire des religions, avec une vaste ouverture chronologique (de l'Antiquité au XIX^e siècle) et géographique (Japon et Europe). Selon la méthode comparatiste, il s’agira d’affiner ou de nuancer la compréhension de son propre domaine en se confrontant à une matière différente. Une telle approche permettra de proposer de nouvelles perspectives afin de dépasser les acquis de domaines restés longtemps en vase clos. Cette conférence s’inscrit dans le cadre du projet de recherche Pouvoir, hérésie et religion dans l'Occident et le Japon médiéval : étude comparée mené à l'université de Neuchâtel soutenu par le Fonds national suisse de la recherche scientifique (FNS).

  The discourses of heresy - East-West comparison exercises

  Exercices de comparaison Est-Ouest

  Ce colloque international réunira des médiévistes japonais et européens, dont les recherches portent sur la légitimation religieuse de la violence, la répression de la dissidence ou sur des formes de religiosité ayant été considérées comme déviantes dans leurs contextes respectifs. Les différentes contributions porteront sur des aspects particuliers tirés des recherches personnelles des conférenciers. Selon la méthode comparatiste définie par M. Détienne et affinée par P. Borgeaud, il s’agira de se confronter à une matière différente de son aire de spécialité, dans le but d’affiner ou de nuancer la compréhension de son propre domaine. Une telle approche permettra de proposer de nouvelles perspectives afin de dépasser les acquis de domaines restés longtemps en vase clos.
