Seuils in(ter)disciplinaires : une exploration méthodologique de l’indisciplinarité
Le collectif propose de questionner les enjeux de seuils entre disciplines à travers un cycle de quatre séminaires. La notion de seuil prend ici la forme d’expérimentations entre disciplines, au sens d’une indisciplinarité qui explore l’hybridité, les croisements, les entre-deux. Comment une discipline autre que la sienne permet-elle de réinvestir sa pratique et sa recherche ? Être « sur le seuil » devient une méthode de recherche et de création qui, dans une période de crise sociale, économique et politique, nous permet de penser dans l’altérité. La plus-value de ce cycle de séminaires tient dans son hybridation transdisciplinaire entre recherche et création, mêlant conférences et ateliers artistiques avec des intervenant·es chercheur·es/artistes.

Questionner le genre : pratiques, représentations et savoirs
La journée d’étude doctorale du Centre d’histoire culturelle des sociétés contemporaines (CHCSC) et du laboratoire Dynamiques patrimoniales et culturelles (DYPAC) de l’université de Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines est intitulée « Questionner le genre : pratiques, représentations et savoirs ». Cette journée d’étude pluridisciplinaire entend s’appuyer sur le genre et ses pratiques afin de rassembler des jeunes chercheurs et chercheuses - doctorant·es et jeunes docteur·es - autour d’une question transversale particulièrement riche et s’appliquant à tous les champs des sciences humaines, sociales, médicales et fondamentales. Elle repose sur deux axes scientifiques, « Qu’est-ce que le genre fait aux pratiques ? Objets, représentations, activités » et « Où se loge le genre dans les pratiques de recherche ? ».

Disability: spatial and geographical approaches
By examining the characteristics of societies and cultures in relation to disability, the concerns of disability studies are useful for geography, as they enable us to reflect on spatial barriers and on the diversity of ways of perceiving or representing space. Over and above the question of accessibility, spatial approaches enable us to reflect on the habitability of territories, whether highly urbanized or rural, in terms of disability.

The Challenge of Inclusivity and Democratic Government in Social Contract Theory
Social contract approaches seek to explain the origins of political obligations but are also recognized as tools of social change. In the face of classic social contract philosophers, who maintained that normative legitimacy may be grounded in hypothetical agreement, recent accusations of exclusivity and anthropocentrism have challenged contract theories’ relevance. And yet, in spite of these challenges, contract theories have experienced a resurgence. This conference seeks to engage with this second wave of theories and reflect on the challenges of inclusivity and democratic government within contract theory from an interdisciplinary perspective.

Social interaction and everyday life in offline and online realities
This conference is part of the “Centenary of the Birth of Michel de Certeau” commemoration. Born in Chambéry, Michel de Certeau remains a globally influential interdisciplinary thinker whose work, particularly The Practice of Everyday Life, has impacted fields such as anthropology, media, and cultural studies. This conference seeks proposals that apply and expand on de Certeau's ideas in contemporary contexts. We encourage contributions that connect his work with evolving fields such as phenomenology of artificial intelligence, post-human and queer phenomenology, offering new perspectives on the complex and shifting dynamics of our societies.

Things Unsaid, Things Unwritten during the English Restoration (1660-1714)
Aussi conventionnelle qu’oxymorique, l'expression de « non-dit » remet en question la binarité supposée entre parole et silence. L’expression thématise à la fois une absence, un manque (de mots), et porte néanmoins en elle la trace manifeste d’une présence. Du moins pour qui sait la déchiffrer. Car le silence du non-dit est, en réalité, une invitation : à comprendre, à deviner, à faire accoucher un sens qui ne veut, ou ne peut pas se dire. Le non-dit porte en lui la trace d’un effacement, mais aussi d'une résistance obstinée. Le non-dit est un silence qui dit quelque chose. Comment repérer les signes d'un silence qui n'en est pas un ? Comment reconstruire avec certitude un discours absent ? Ce projet prolonge la réflexion lancée à l'occasion du colloque « Consentir, refuser, céder : Spectres de la conquête à la Restauration (1660-1714) ». Il a pour vocation de constituer un groupe informel d'étude interdisciplinaire sur la Restauration.

Religion and immigration in the United States and Canada: A Bottom-Up Perspective
In recent years, there has been an upsurge of interest in the religious beliefs and practices of immigrant populations in both popular and academic discourse. While this topic is most often addressed as part of larger conversations about multiculturalism and social cohesion within the broader society, scholars are increasingly turning their attention to religious identities as experienced by the immigrants themselves. This conference will take a “bottom up” approach to explore how religion has factored into the migrant trajectories, lived experience, and imaginaries of newcomers to the United States and Canada from the nineteenth century through to the present day.

Chaucer in the Age of Medievalism
In sondry ages and sundry londes
Far from being confined to his era, Geoffrey Chaucer's work continues to resonate through the ages, inspiring a multitude of post-medieval representations. The poet himself remains a regularly invoked figure, sometimes even without direct connection to his texts, suggesting an autonomous legacy of Chaucer both as a man and an artist. Whether through the prism of cinema, music, theater, television, poetry, or other artistic forms, the poet remains an endless source of inspiration and reinterpretation. This conference invites us to question how adaptations and reinterpretations of Chaucer and/or his work by artists from diverse cultural backgrounds enrich our understanding of his legacy. His various incarnations over the centuries raise fascinating issues regarding intercultural dialogue, the politics of memory, and the evolution of popular culture.

Hermeneutical Rationality and the Future of the Humanities
The set of challenges facing the Humanities today is an opportunity to rethink their future. This conference puts forward a twofold objective. On the one hand, it intends to explore the extent to which the hermeneutical paradigm of the Humanities (Schleiermacher, Dilthey, Gadamer, Ricœur, Taylor), which emphasizes the interpretive core of these disciplines and their contribution to human moral development can still provide meaningful answers to these challenges. On the other hand, it aims to intervene, in a reflective and critical manner, in the debates on the value, need and possible shape of the Humanities in the future.

Translation and Translators in the Colonial Context
Roles, Functions and Narratives
The chronological reading of colonial contexts allows us to identify the “organic” link between translation and the colonial project, before, during and after the military occupation. Translation has acquired several functions; highlighting the role of the translator between the narratives of the colonizer and that of the colonized. Until 2000, seventy percent of the world's population had a “colonial” past, either as a colonizer or as a colonized. (Etemad, 258), which suggests that more than seventy percent of the world's population have been affected, and perhaps still are, through the prism of translation. The Conference will attempt to understand how translation was put at the service of the colonial project? What translation approaches have been adopted by translators and interpreters? How did translational discourse influence the cultures of the occupier and the occupied?

Târgu Mureş
Lauréat des très prestigieux prix Guillaume Apollinaire (1967) et Goncourt de la poésie (1998), Lorand Gaspar, poète, traducteur, historien, photographe mais aussi remarquable médecin chirurgien, voit le jour le 28 février 1925. Située au confluent des cultures et des disciplines, l’œuvre de cet écrivain francophone aux origines transylvaines a déjà suscité l’intérêt de nombreux chercheurs et plusieurs travaux universitaires lui ont été consacrés, dont une partie importante s’est constituée par le biais des nombreuses traductions réalisées à partir de et par Gaspar lui-même. Nous proposons aux personnes intéressées (spécialistes de l’auteur, critiques historiens, poètes, traducteurs, médecins, etc.) un colloque qui aura lieu dans sa ville d’origine : Târgu-Mureş.
