    "Blue and white" - Chinese-style

    Porcelain and earthenware - between visual sources and material realities (16th-18th century)

    La production de « bleu et blanc » chinois ou « d’inspiration chinoise » constitue un objet d’étude significatif. Ces fameuses porcelaines, fabriquées notamment à Jingdezhen (Jiangxi) durant l’époque Yuan, ont commencé à circuler au sein des cours européennes à l’aube du XVIe siècle. C’est seulement au cours du XVIIe siècle qu’elles furent l’objet d’un engouement plus large donnant lieu à la fabrication de copies sous la forme de céramiques de diverses qualités. De cette nouvelle « mode » sont nés des substituts inspirés des modèles chinois, accessibles aux bourses les plus modestes. Ainsi est apparu l’épiphénomène des faïences dites « au goût de la Chine ».

    Art History for Artists: Interactions Between Scholarly Discourse and Artistic Practice in the 19th Century

    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.

    Translation History Matters

    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.
