  Field philosophy and other experiments

  This colloquium will bring together leading and emerging scholars to discuss, share, and analyze what similarities and differences there are between their respective humanities research projects, as conducted in the field, and to experiment with what new field practices might emerge from the humanities. How are field practices in the environmental humanities methodologically different from those in cultural anthropology, geography, or sociology? How might field research in philosophy reshape traditionally text-based disciplinary boundaries?

  Call for papers - Thought

  Hospitalitie(s)

  Space(s) of care, tension and presence

  Above all, the call for papers emphasizes the correlation between hospitality and space. Jacques Godbout, in his article "Receiving is to give", specifies that hospitality is a "gift of space". So what are the characteristics of these given spaces? Are they permanent, temporary or transitional? Are there inherent areas of hospitality? And how are they built? From hospitals to home, what are these spaces and what is their spatial nature? And what meaning of hospitality do these spaces convey? What kind of space does hospitality produce?

  Franz Boas, the work of the gaze

  Colloque organisé par Michel Espagne et Isabelle Kalinowski (CNRS, Equipe « Transferts culturels », École normale supérieure, Paris). En collaboration avec le département de la recherche et de l’enseignement du musée du quai Branly. Le colloque « Franz Boas, le travail du regard » aura pour but d’interroger les images, au sens le plus large, que Boas a construit des Indiens d’Amérique du Nord : images constituées à partir d’une pratique du terrain et d’une intimité avec des indigènes, comme son informateur et ami George Hunt ; photographies, dessins, représentations géographiques ; images du mythe et de la mémoire, consignées dans des recueils de légendes et des installations muséographiques ; enfin, images rituelles de l’art, masques, totems et autres objets qu’il contribua à faire découvrir, aux États-Unis et dans des collections privées et publiques européennes.
