    Religions in crisis, the crises of religions

    Comparative approaches to religion, philosophy and ancient representations

    Dans le cadre de ce colloque, nous souhaitons explorer la question de la crise en lien avec le monde religieux, au sens large. Il s’agit notamment d’investiguer la notion même de crise : à partir de quand y a-t-il crise ? La crise se définit-elle essentiellement par ses conséquences ou davantage par les réponses (ou leur absence) apportées pour lui faire face ? La caractérisation des causes (ponctuelles / récurrentes ; externes / internes…) des crises ouvre également un vaste champ de réflexion. Plus précisément, la thématique s’oriente vers la crise « religieuse ». Le spectre d’investigation est volontairement large afin de toucher tant les religions, au sens traditionnel du terme, que les philosophies et les systèmes de représentations.

    Meet the New Gods, Same as the Old Gods? Formulary, Ritual and Status in Hellenistic Ruler Cult

    Panel to be held at the Eighth Celtic Conference in Classics

    Despite recent and widespread interest in Greek hero and ruler cult, evaluating the processes that lead to the bestowal of cultic honours on Hellenistic sovereigns still remains a controversial matter. Political readings of such honours within the framework of contemporary international diplomacy and euergetic discourse have picked up on polarities widely discussed by previous bibliography, such as "dynastic vs. civic", "living vs. posthumous", etc. Yet the main focus is still limited to a "top-down" perspective, which leaves aside the fascinating dialectics between "private" and "public", or to perhaps phrase this more accurately, between "institutional" and "non-institutional" actors.
