Logics, stakes and limits of cultural heritage transmission in Eurasia
The thematic issue is about cultural heritage and patrimonialization. It aims at comparing the varying notions of “tradition” and “safeguarding of culture” within an empirical approach.We focus on conflicts about the creation of culture and how these globalised and specific contexts shape a changing self-perception of “ethnic identity” in Northern Asia, Central Asia and Eastern Europe.The articles may be on local as well as global expressions of cultural heritage: poetical genre, engraving or wood carving, architecture, ethno-parks or ecomuseums, cultural tourism, opposition to projects of valorization, etc. Analysis may also focus on the role of actors involved in local projects, on historical contexts or on international fashions.

Science and literature: reciprocal inspirations
Central and eastern Europe (19th-21st centuries)
Charles Percy Snow (1905-1980), chimiste et romancier britannique, a consacré sa célèbre conférence The Two Cultures and the Scientific Revolution (Deux cultures et la révolution scientifique, 1959) à l’incompréhension grandissante entre la culture littéraire et la culture scientifique tout en montrant les dangers de cette scission pour le progrès de la civilisation.

Conference, symposium - Political studies
Final Conference of the ValEUR research project
The conference addresses the role, effects and meanings of values at the crossroads of politics, culture, market and law. It documents the circulation and shaping of values between the different spheres of the European multi-level governance (local, national, supranational, transnational). It investigates the EU as a container of values politics as well as its interactions with external entities (Council of Europe, UN, rest of the world). A secondary purpose is to map the research using values as an exploratory framework of wider transformations of politics, policies and polities in Europe. Leaders of scientific projects having developed such agendas in recent years figure among the contributors.

Projections of health and welfare on the socialist and post-socialist screen
Bodies and health on television have not been extensively researched, in particular in the socialist and transition to market-economy contexts.The conference seeks to analyse how television and its evolving formats –contemporary, similar and yet differing in national broadcast contexts– expressed and staged bodies and health from local, regional, national and international perspectives. The conference seeks to better understand the role that TV, as a modern visual mass media, has played in what may be cast as the transition from a national bio-political public health paradigm at the beginning of the twentieth century, to alternative societal forms of the late twentieth century when (supposedly) “better” and “healthier” lives were increasingly shaped by market forces.

The exit from war in Danubian Europe: a new era? (1918-1924)
Using the Hungarian case as a springboard, and broadening the perspective to the whole of Danubian Europe, the conference seeks to address the following questions: the new social bonds emerging from the transformation brought about by the Paris Peace Conference; social, intellectual and (or) regional impact of changes, conflicts and international confrontations between 1918 and 1924. The conference aims to rise to the challenge of writing comparative social histories of this historical moment.

Migravit a seculo. Muerte y poder de príncipes en la Europa Medieval
El objetivo del coloquio es el análisis de la muerte como instrumento de poder por parte de las élites (los “príncipes”) medievales, desde los miembros de la realeza o la jerarquía eclesiástica hasta la aristocracia militar o el patriciado urbano. Dado el carácter multidisciplinar escogido, el acercamiento que ofrezcan los ponentes pueden ser de muy diverso tipo, y por tanto también los enfoques de acercamiento; desde perspectivas generales hasta casos particulares, que permitan la comparación en el tiempo y el espacio, pero también establecer la necesaria interrelación desde los diferentes campos de análisis. Por la misma razón, el elenco de ponentes contempla, junto a los miembros del equipo de investigación de MIGRAVIT-SEPULTUS que organiza el coloquio, la presencia de otras relevantes figuras del panorama científico europeo en sus respectivos campos, desde la historia general a la historia del arte, la musicología o la biología, para poder poner en común con ellos los resultados más relevantes de las investigaciones realizadas a lo largo de los tres último años.

Dissent Versus Conformism in the Nordic, Baltic and Black Sea Areas
The tenth annual international conference on Nordic and Baltic Studies in Romania
In the meanwhile, conformism seems to have pervaded larger categories of public in East-Central Europe and beyond and new “illiberal democracies” evolved. A composite of authoritarian leader and godfather have taken the reins of power in the area. Populist parties and movements are on the rise. Resurgent nationalisms are again offered as a substitute to solutions. The refugee crisis lingers on and no common decisions have been adopted within the EU to solve it on the basis of the European values. The EU institutions are in need of reform and decisions on the course of the organization and its future enlargement process are still pending. The conference aims at analyzing two often interrelated phenomena: dissent and conformism.

Workshop organised by the "Knowledge and Central Europe" laboratory and the University Library of Strasbourg, in cooperation with EA3400 (history department, Strasbourg)
Depuis 2016, la B.N.U. et le réseau national « Connaissance de l’Europe médiane » (« Groupement de recherche » n°3607 du C.N.R.S.), appuyés sur l’équipe de recherche E.A. 3400 (faculté des Sciences historiques de l’université de Strasbourg), contribuent à faire mieux connaître l’Europe médiane en Alsace. Dans cet espace entre Allemagne et Russie (qui comprend des collections de rang mondial), l’art a participé et participe encore à des débats brûlants : rapport entre images et religion, croisement entre l’Orient et l’Occident… En dialogue avec leurs collègues étrangers, les chercheurs de l’université présenteront leurs travaux récents allant de la Bohême médiévale aux rivages de Bulgarie, en passant par l’art islamique à Vienne, dans une manifestation ouverte au public.

The emergence of video art in Europe: Historiography, theory, sources and archives (1960-1980)
À ce jour, à l’échelle de l’Europe, une histoire de l’art vidéo demeure donc à faire. C’est la mission à laquelle le présent programme de recherche entend répondre. Un réseau international, regroupant à la fois des historiens de l’art et de l’image en mouvement, des artistes, des protagonistes de cette aventure, des dépositaires de fonds d’archives, des conservateurs et de jeunes chercheurs, s’est constitué. Il a pour objectif de collecter des données sur les artistes, les œuvres et les événements qui ont permis l’avènement de cette pratique, ou qui ont compté dans son développement sur le territoire européen, et de mettre au jour les conditions nationales spécifiques de production et de diffusion permettant d'expliquer la variété des productions comme la disparité des périodes d'émergences (1960-1980).

Péter Esterházy, the a postmodern Hungarian tale of a postmodern Hungarian count
Péter Esterházy, maître incontestable de la prose hongroise contemporaine, s’est éteint en 2016. Depuis Trois anges me surveillent, ses romans figurent parmi les textes les plus importants de la littérature postmoderne et sont disponibles dans l’Hexagone, essentiellement chez Gallimard. Ce colloque international, le premier dans l’espace francophone, a pour objectif de lui rendre hommage en réunissant des spécialistes de l’auteur, des traducteurs, des chercheurs en littérature comparée et des historiens. Articulée autour de quelques axes fondamentaux, comme la narratologie, l’histoire des idées, la traduction et l’intertextualité, la manifestation cherche à porter un regard critique français sur l’œuvre de l’écrivain magyar.

Anti-semite discourse and literature during the war years
La journée d’étude se propose d’ouvrir le débat sur l’interrelation complexe entre littérature et politique, littérature et histoire dans le contexte de la Deuxième Guerre mondiale. Elle se propose d’interroger l’action poétique comme acte performatif, apte à faire face à l’inintelligible, ainsi qu’inversement, à convaincre et à devenir une arme redoutable aux mains d’une propagande destructrice. Quel fut le rôle joué par la littérature dans la formation de l’opinion publique, notamment face à la propagande journalistico-littéraire antisémite qui atteint son apogée au moment du régime vichyssois ? Comment a-t-elle procédé pour exprimer sa résistance à l’imaginaire antisémite ? Ou, au contraire, de quelle manière a-t-elle opéré pour renforcer le récit meurtrier ?
