The World of Silk Between France and Italy, 16th-19th Century
This workshop aims to consider Franco-Italian relations concerning silk from the sixteenth to the nineteenth century by fostering dialogue between research that has hitherto been separated by historiographical tradition, particularly combining history and art history. This interdisciplinary approach is all the more essential as it seeks to scrutinize through the same set of inquiries the entire silk production chain (from mulberry cultivation to fabric consumption, including thread manufacturing and preparation, pattern creation, and weaving). By revealing the importance of interdependencies among the various stages of the production and consumption process and the different actors within this industry, this approach leads to new considerations of the connections between the social worlds and the territories that silk interlinked.

XXVIIe Séminaire d'histoire de l'art vénitien
Venise occupe une place singulière dans l’histoire du collectionnisme : elle vit s’épanouir la démarche humaniste des cardinaux Grimani, rendue publique ensuite par un legs à la Sérénissime, celle dynastique des familles patriciennes souvent ruinées au fil du temps, mais aussi la passion des diplomates (Joseph Smith) et des voyageurs (Giovanni Miani, Enrico di Borbone) avides de réunir des souvenirs artistiques de la cité ou de leurs expéditions lointaines, ou bien le goût des nouvelles fortunes industrielles (Cini, Ligabue) ou internationales (Pinault) et des artistes même (Fortuny, Vedova, Kapoor). Comment interagissent ces collectionneurs avec les marchands, antiquaires, agents, érudits ou experts, conseillers dans cette quête ? comment se forme leur goût et quels choix les guident dans la constitution des ensembles ? quelles émulations ou concurrences se jouent ? Outre ces questionnements, le séminaire abordera les grandes mutations à l’œuvre dans le temps. En quoi la collection dresse un portrait de son auteur et comment les collections forgent à leur tour une image de la Cité ?

Controlled Languages for Musical Heritage: State of the Art, Tools, Perspectives
The objective of this conference is to establish the state of the research around controlled languages in Documentation and Musicology, i.e., documentary languages based on tools such as lemmatizers, controlled vocabularies, taxonomies, thesauri, classifications, etc. By presenting ongoing or completed research in the field of digital musicology, its aim is to bring to light both best practices and problematic aspects, in order to identify effective and shareable working methodologies.

Land Use and Consumption in a Historical Perspective
Definitions, Concepts, and Methods
The relationship between societies and soil is intrinsic to human history. Nowadays, this relationship is strongly defined by land use and consumption practices that, at different scales, increasingly threaten the common good and the biodiversity conservation. Urban planning interventions and intensive forms of production lead to the fragmentation, erosion, and ultimately, transformation of soil into a commodity, a freely usable “raw material,” rather than recognizing it as a non-reproducible good. In such a context, a revision of the evolution of concepts of use, consumption, and artificialization of the soil can contribute to a better understanding of the perspectives and rhetoric developed over time and in relation to contemporary challenges.

“Imago Mundi”. An Overview of Metaphor: Creativity, Phraseology and Discourse
The guiding question of the conference will therefore be to try to specify the linguistic and conceptual functioning of the metaphor. More generally, the conference will welcome any contribution aimed at bringing out the relationships between metaphor and the three concepts in question: creativity, lexicalization and discourse. The analysis of metaphor can proceed from both a diachronic and synchronic perspective and address different types of corpora and texts. The conference will pay particular attention to the analysis of different types of discourse, in particular scientific, technological, media, tourism, advertising, political, legal, philosophical, historical, literary, artistic and educational/didactic discourse.

Journal “InterArtes”
Depuis le développement des études sur la bande dessinée dans le monde occidental, à savoir dès les années soixante, on a observé une croissance imposante, dans différents domaines disciplinaires, de contributions scientifiques portant sur son langage et ses auteurs. Des reconstructions historiques, des études sociologiques, des interprétations culturelles, des analyses sémiotiques et linguistiques, des comparaisons intermédiales ont offert au cours de ces décennies un cadre historique, théorique et méthodologique permettant de définir le langage de la bande dessinée, ses formes, ses genres et ses évolutions, son dialogue avec les autres arts, sa valeur esthétique ainsi que son impact idéologique et culturel. Cependant, nous estimons qu'il reste encore beaucoup à explorer et à définir, notamment dans la relation – objet de nombreux débats récemment – entre la bande dessinée et la littérature.

Gaetano Salvemini (1873-1957) and France
The conference intends to propose an overall re-examination of Salvemini's relations with France, starting with those matured with some historians during the drafting phase of his volume on the French Revolution (1905, subsequently reissued several times with variants), passing through his relations with some important intellectuals and those gravitating around the figure of his second wife Fernande Dauriac, arriving at those with the world of Italian and European antifascist exile. Vast and significant, even if not always marked by sympathy and harmony of ideas, appear, moreover, the relations with exponents of the labor movement and with various personalities of the French socialist world. A separate chapter is, finally, represented by relations with the Giustizia e Libertà movement.

Thinking, practicing and living plurilingualism
Third edition
Reflecting the broad themes of this third conference, the three interconnected and complementary verbs of the title reflect an expanded sphere of investigation into language didactics and the construction of plurilingual identities, mostly linked to institutionalized places of learning such as schools or universities but also to other fields and approaches, to other professions and profiles involved in the exercise of interculturality and in the planning or management of plurilingual spaces. This international conference will bring together contributions from specialists in language didactics, didactics of plurilingualism, and language policies, grouped into three main sections for the purposes of fruitful exchange.

Au cœur des années 1970 italiennes : le tournant de 1973-1974
Ce colloque propose, cinquante ans après les événements, une réflexion historique et historiographique sur les caractéristiques du biennio 1973-74 en Italie. Ces deux années représentent un passage décisif. Elles sont marquées, à l’échelle mondiale, par une série d’événements périodisants (coups d’État en Uruguay et au Chili, choc pétrolier, crise économique, fin des dictatures méditerranéennes...) dont il s’agira d’examiner les répercussions sur le contexte italien. Sur le plan national, ce biennio se situe à l’apogée de la modernisation politique et sociale du pays, confirmant le double visage d’une décennie pleine de contradictions (crise du centre gauche et premières hypothèses du compromis historique, paroxysme de la conflictualité ouvrière et passage à la lutte armée…). Nous nous proposons donc d’examiner les effets et enjeux du biennio 1973-74 sur le pays afin d’identifier plus précisément les spécificités du cas italien.

France – Italie. Allers / retours
Luttes et revendications
La France et l’Italie, comme formant un écosystème juridique intégré, suscitent le plus grand intérêt de la part des historiens du droit. L’analyse des dynamiques qui ont conduit à l’agencement actuel des systèmes juridiques contemporains ne peut faire l’économie de la prise en compte de ce contexte. Outre cet aspect général, le thème spécifique choisi pour cette troisième édition de « France-Italie allers/retours » est un thème spécifiquement lié au contexte italo-français. Le thème de luttes et revendications, qu’elles soient militaires, juridiques, syndicales ou même intellectuelles, a impliqué l’espace italo-français avec une grande homogénéité de questions, d’actions de la part des populations et de réponses de la part du droit. C’est pourquoi l’étude de ces dynamiques et tensions nécessite une étude intégrée des tendances pulsionnelles, culturelles et politiques, mais aussi des courants intellectuels qui, traversant la France et l’Italie, ont façonné nos sociétés.

Giacomo Puccini, 1924-2024 : Puccini et la France
Centenaire de la disparition de Puccini
One of the greatest masters of musical theatre of all time, Puccini met with immense popular success in France starting from the first performances of his operas, despite the recurring reservations of critics, who severely rejected his music and librettos that were often judged vulgar and irrelevant. The purpose of this conference is to examine the close links between Puccini and France, both through the works themselves and their reception, from his lifetime to the present day. The papers, cultivating an interdisciplinary perspective, will focus on staging, musical dramaturgy, the production systems, as well as on the literary and musical sources and forms of Puccini’s operas, insofar as these are linked to France.

S’il est généralement reconnu que l’Empire ottoman fut, du moins au XVIe siècle, une puissance méditerranéenne et participa de ce fait à la construction de l’Europe, le grand récit occidental a eu tendance à le considérer comme un intrus, dont la perception variait de la marginalisation politique à l’exclusion culturelle. C’est sur ce dernier point que portera ce cycle de conférences, non pour tenter de renverser l’argument de l’exclusion, mais pour proposer un examen critique de la nature et des limites des connexions entre l’Empire ottoman et certains aspects de l’héritage et du patrimoine méditerranéens.

“InterArtes”, 2023 - Number 3
Today, technological advances seem to point towards the artificial creation of complex singularities. The process of artistic creation is clearly at the heart of this paradigm shift whose implications are as much aesthetic and scientific as they are ethical, political, and then legal, economic, social, environmental... The third issue of InterArtes will be devoted to critically questioning the relationship between “Artistic Creativity and Automation”, both with theoretical contributions and with essays of a historical and empirical nature.
