Reading Chaucer outside the Anglophone World: Receptions, Translations, and Traditions
In Sondry Ages and Sondry Londes
The recent Mandarin Chinese translation of The Canterbury Tales (Linking Publishing, 2025) by Dr. Francis K. H. So offers a timely opportunity to reflect on the growing presence, vitality, and diversity of Chaucerian studies outside the Anglophone world. This significant contribution not only opens new avenues for engaging with Geoffrey Chaucer’s language and narrative art, but also foregrounds the crucial role of translation, pedagogy, and local scholarly traditions in shaping how Chaucer is read, interpreted, and taught across different linguistic and cultural contexts.

The Phanariots have long animated the historiography of late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century Southeast Europe. Contemporary political commentators, as well as historians seeking to construct national(ist) narratives, branded the Phanariots with critiques of corruption, foreign interests, and the legacies of the Ottoman past. Yet, scholars have conducted scant research on how and why “Phanariots” and “Phanariotism” came to signify corruption, bad governance, and a seemingly inescapable Ottoman past after 1821. This workshop tends to this gap in historiography.

By choosing to focus on South-North circulations, this seminar is dedicated to the deconstruction of the “British Empire” as a homogeneous category to write and think about the intellectual, artistic, and political histories of the people who circulate and inhabit this polity known as the Commonwealth of Nations in the post-Bandung era. Working from the assumption that committed artists, intellectuals and political activists from the Global South have networked and connected within this space, we seek to interrogate the counter-hegemonic nature of the knowledge, theories and artistic practices produced during the post-Bandung era.

Mobilising Heritage: Dance, Theatre, and Performance in the Age of (In)Tangibility
European Journal of Theatre and Performance, Vol. 8, No. 1
This turn toward the intangible and communal dimensions of heritage exposed deep tensions between preservation and change, expert authority and bottom-up participation, or institutional policies and bodily practices. These frictions are particularly visible in dance and the performing arts, where heritage is literally embodied, enacted, and reimagined through practice. In what this special issue terms the age of (in)tangibility, the performing arts are recognised as intangible heritage precisely as they are rendered tangible through documentation, digitisation, and policy frameworks, revealing a constitutive tension between embodied, relational knowledge that exists only in practice and the material, institutional forms through which heritage is named, governed, and sustained.

Queer Ecologies Across Socialisms
Queer Ecologies Across State Socialisms brings queer ecology into dialogue with the cultural, institutional, and environmental histories of global state socialist worlds. The conference asks how ideas of “nature” and sexuality were co-produced across bodies, policies, infrastructures, and landscapes - and how queer attachments and ecological critique emerged within socialist modernities. We invite academic and artistic work that rethinks socialist environmental governance beyond catastrophe narratives and traces alternative imaginaries of care, coexistence, and solidarity across more-than-human worlds.

This conference explores how political literature reveals the intersections of language, identity, and power through the lens of language contact. It examines how political realities shape and are shaped by linguistic practices, from laws that support or constrain languages to the lived experiences of displacement and belonging. Political literature encapsulates and brings to light how the political permeates our everyday lives and situations, using a range of literary devices and genres as tools to share ideas and observations, thus actively taking part into shaping societies and individuals.

The French Revolution and the Sacred
Global and Contemporary Perspectives (18th c. – present)
In the years leading up to the bicentenary commemorations of 1989, a new liberal interpretation of the French Revolution challenged a long-lived socialist one. In contrast to the Marxist view of a “bourgeois revolution” with popular support, the liberal historiography has recurrently emphasized the role of “revolutionary ideology” and the “collective mentality” which led to the episode of the “Terror”. We might take the end of Cold War binary frameworks as an opportunity to move beyond this long-lasting interpretive divide, and to reinvestigate how the Revolution transformed ideas of the sacred and has itself been sacralized.

Into the ordinariness of citizenship
Anthropological investigations of citizenship offer a wide range of descriptions of various practices of (de)polarization, making manifest the connection between citizenship and a strange multiplicity of political imaginaries that cannot be reduced to statism or, more generally, to a “political ontology of violence”. As such, anthropology of citizenship invites us not to think of politics beyond (de)polarization but, rather, to look—through descriptive and comparative perspectives—at the variety of its practices, along with their specific political imaginaries, and to understand how they constitute the very “ordinariness” of citizenship.

French geographical studies have only moderately addressed topics related to funerary spatialities. This issue of Géocarrefour aims to enrich these recent discussions by inviting geographers to explore the strange scientific Bermuda Triangle formed by the intersection of power, funerals, and geography. This call concerns both how power exercised over and around the dead transforms geographical space and how the dead, paradoxically, continue to exert influence despite their absence.

The Art Museum in the Digital Age (2026)
This international online conference explores the complex interrelations between truth, fake and falsified information, and knowledge authority in the context of digital transformation processes. In light of increasing disinformation, AI-generated content, and algorithmic bias, museums face the challenge of rethinking their role as trusted spaces for knowledge dissemination. At the same time, digital technologies open up new possibilities for participation, contextualization, and translation. At the heart of the conference is the question of how museums can assume digital responsibility and actively contribute to fostering an open and reflective information culture.
