The Islamic Legacy in the 20th and 21st Centuries
The COST Action “Islamic Legacy: Narratives East, West, South, North of the Mediterranean (1350-1750)” [CA 18129] is launching a call for a Conference entitled “The Islamic Legacy in the 20th and 21st Centuries”. The event that we are disseminating is being organised within the this project, which as the purpose to provide a transnational and interdisciplinary approach capable of overcoming the segmentation that currently characterizes the study of relations between Christianity and Islam in late medieval and early modern Europe and the Mediterranean. We aim to create a network that will help to provide a comprehensive understanding of past relations between Christianity and Islam in the European context through the addressing of three main research problems: otherness, migration and borders. To know more about the project, please visit our website https://is-le.eu.

Monarchy and modernity since 1500
Si l’histoire de l’Europe est essentiellement celle d’États monarchiques, les monarchies encore en place au lendemain de la seconde Guerre mondiale ne ressemblent plus guère à celles qui régissaient le continent à la fin du Moyen Âge. L’époque contemporaine a transformé la monarchie comme état de fait en une opinion, dans le même mouvement qui faisait basculer un monde marqué par l’omniprésence du sacré vers un autre marqué par celle du profane. Les désignants ont pu demeurer inchangés – tout comme se sont perpétués familles, domaines et résidences princières -, mais leur sens s’est modifié en profondeur au fil des siècles et au gré des pays, transformant les mécanismes et les fonctions du pouvoir monarchique comme sa substance même.

This two-day event is a collaboration between the Department of History of Art, University of Cambridge and the Arts University Bournemouth and is organised in association with the European Society for the Study of Western Esotericism. The conference seeks to investigate the formative role that occultism and magic have played in Western and non-Western visual and material culture. It aims to present original research in this feld as well as to establish a productive dialogue between academics with a particular research interest in occultism and visual culture. We invite proposals from a variety of disciplines and perspectives, provided that they present innovative insights into visual, symbolic or material aspects of the esoteric tradition.
