Call for papers - Education

The Learner at the Heart of Educational and University System

The third edition of the International Citizen Education Forum focuses the attention of scientific contributors, experts, and citizen actors on The learner at the heart of the education and university system. It offers a moment of pause and reflection to fully grasp the complexity, the paradoxes and the challenges posed by the state of education and the pitfalls that weigh on the basic mission of the school (training, socialization, qualification ) and the university (training, research, services to the community). The dynamic that will be injected by this approach assumes that we are not content to simply grasp the inventory; on the contrary, it calls for projecting multiple and diversified development prospects.

Society in the age of covid-19

Causes, issues and consequences of a crisis

La crise du covid-19 a touché tous les pans de la société à tous les niveaux, et avec des conséquences sur le plan social, économique, juridique, politique, psychologique, éducatif, écologique, numérique, communicationnel, artistique, technologique, etc. Pour l’appréhender pleinement, il est nécessaire de l’analyser sous différents angles, que cela soit à un niveau individuel, collectif ou sociétal. Cette crise révèle plus que jamais les liens entre ces différents enjeux et avec nos modes de vie. Du point de vue de la recherche, cette crise est aussi le moyen de s’engager plus encore dans des approches scientifiques inter- pluri- et transdisciplinaires de ces questionnements afin de favoriser l’émergence de nouvelles perspectives quant à la façon dont nous envisageons la science et la façon de traiter les enjeux tels que ceux mentionnés.

The aim of these workshops will be to explore the multiple definitions that student involvements can cover.

Levantine Sociabilities in Europe in Giacomo Casanova’s time

Spies, Impostors, Courtesans and Men of Culture

This conference will encourage discussions and exchanges between international scholars on how national models of sociability and traditional Enlightenment values may have been affected and reconfigured by the Levantine practices of intrigue, libertinage and criminality. Through the multiple facets of Casanova (trickster, libertine, social climber, gambler, political agent...) and his European travels and networks, this conference will also address the circulation of knowledge and fashions between Europe and the East and the evolution of sociability thanks to various media: commerce, diplomacy, travel, letter- writing, translation, leisure and other sociable practices.

Cinematerialisms

New Materialist Approaches to the Audiovisual (Cinema, Media, Digital Arts)

The goal of this conference is to investigate the contemporary reconfigurations of the notion of materialism within the disciplines of the arts and of audiovisual cultures. Is it possible to locate a common or core base of materialist practices, methods, or objects of study in these disciplines, or must we accept the plurality of meanings associated with this theoretical axis? To what degree is it productive to distinguish between the terms material, materiality, materiological, etc.? Beyond these terminological questions, we intend to interrogate the points of articulation between reflections on the materiality of audiovisual works and the materialist analysis of their processes of production and reception.

Controversies over Methods in European Union law

This series of seminars aims at providing an overview of different methods in European Union law, both old and new, both mainstream and not, by putting them in perspective with each other and by questioning their underlying assumptions. In order to do so, participants are expected to engage in a reflexive exercise that will make their methods and their position in the controversy explicit: What methods do they use and what do these methods imply? With whom and against whom do they think European Union law? Do they find it useful to exhume an author that in their view has been unduly neglected or, on the contrary, to call for new approaches to understand EU law?

Displaying the social history of migrants: content, scenography, public engagement

This conference addresses issues of display and reception, in a museum context, of social history in general and the social history of migrations in particular. The objective is to identify and discuss practices that can best carry across historical contents and reach a broad audience. What are the most suitable approaches to make visitors understand, feel, and project themselves into, the social life of working-class and migrant families of the past? What are the risks associated with the conception and mediation of migration history contents? How should that history be told in order to convey the diversity and inclusivity of historiographical narratives? In what way can people from working-class and migrant backgrounds be included in the exhibition process itself?

Antiquities of Middle-earth

Conference, symposium - History

The Myth of Versailles and European Courts, 17th and 20th centuries

Ce colloque est organisé dans le cadre du programme « Identités curiales et le mythe de Versailles en Europe : perceptions, adhésions et rejets (XVIII^e-XIX^e siècle) » mené par le centre de recherche du château de Versailles. Il a pour objectif d’analyser le modus operandi du mythe de Versailles dans l’Europe monarchique des XVIII^e, XIX^e et XX^e siècles, en prenant en compte les deux éléments contradictoires mais complémentaires qui caractérisent cette notion : le réel et la reconstruction du réel. L’enjeu sera donc double : cerner comment les différents aspects propres à l’identité de Versailles ont pu nourrir un imaginaire, mais aussi saisir la manière dont cet imaginaire a pu susciter d’autres réalisations – architecturales, rituelles, politiques.

La cour se met au vert. Mises en valeur et usages politiques des campagnes entre Moyen Âge et pré-modernité

The Court escapes from Town. The countryside as political asset from the Middle Ages to the early Modern Period

The idea of heading off to the countryside is associated nowadays with a wish to get away from a stressful, noisy, and at times oppressive and foul-smelling urban environment, to rest in peace and quiet, in healthy surroundings, in close contact with the bounties of the natural world and animals in their “natural” habitat. Far from any anachronistic intent, applying this expression to court studies is a call to scholars to adopt interdisciplinary approaches to examine the many ways in which aristocratic circles related to and interacted with their rural environment.
