    Abandoned properties: crisis and liability

    This call for articles is addressed to researchers in history and social sciences and aims to address the following question: what happens when things, during and after a period of crisis, remain temporarily or definitively “without an owner”?

    The garden of the gods

    The paradigm of antiquity in the arts at the Villa

    The establishment of humanistic culture in Italy led to one of the richest seasons in Villa architecture and a profound process of transformation of the idea and the function of the garden, in which antiquity was the absolute protagonist. The roots of this development date back to the second half of the fifteenth century, as is clearly demonstrated by Leon Battista Alberti, in the preface to his De re aedificatoria: "Our Ancestors have left us many and various Arts tending to the Pleasure and Conveniency of Life".

    Nero and Hadrian

    The arts in power

    Nero and Hadrian: two emperors united by a passion for the arts; both reformers in the artistic and also, in particular, in the architectural and administrative spheres. Two characters, the first much discussed, the second much less. Recent critics have portrayed them in an innovative and pioneering light, at least from a purely cultural point of view.

    Weightlessness and Thought in the Modern and Contemporary Arts

    International Conference “Whims of the Wind”

    Due to the anthropic causes of the present-day climatic changes, and moving from the debated idea of an ecological crisis connected to a crisis of sensibility, linked to the raising of Eco-criticism and Eco-poetics, the attention on atmospheric elements and hints in literary texts, arts and history, as well as in the esthetical debate, is growing more and more. The International Conference aims to promote a plural discourse on narration and representation of wind as a cross-knot between different disciplines, proceeding by glitches and associative jumps, intertextuality, intermediality, and moving on a new exploration of the theme through multiple examples in modern and contemporary literature and in visual and performing arts.

    Resistance and protest in postcolonial Africa: representations in language and literature

    Exploring verbal and nonverbal expression and representation of resistance, dissent and dissidence in Postcolonial Africa

    Language and discourse are central in power mediation in any society. This concern has provoked scientific burgeoning that led to the development of a social approach to linguistics, called critical linguistics (CL), which recognized power relationships as a central theoretical issue, and discourse as well as text as its main unit of analysis. Given the complexity of globalized understandings and practices of citizenship and political engagement, there is a need to explore how Africans are participating as activists and emancipated citizens in a vibrant public sphere. This volume seeks to explore the verbal and signed acts of resistance and protest in the postcolonial context of Africa from a variety of angles and epistemological approaches.  It explores how knowledge and political/social call to action (rejecting leaders, resisting, dissenting)  is perceived, shared and used  by the individual and/or social groups in postcolonial Africa.

    Humankind and Fat. Attraction, Repulsion, Health and Politics

    12th International Symposium of CORPUS

    Fat that our bodies accumulate, fat we consume, our representations of fatty foods and bodies… The relationships between humankind and fat are a fascinating topic for social and medical scientists. They are highly variable according to the places and the times and, often, much more nuanced and complex that the dominant discourse suggests. Not very so long ago, European peasants valued fat. Today, their urbanised descendants have panic attacks if they have to move a hole in the belt! However, even if they are lipophobic, they are still linking some traditional fatty foods with festival meals. Western canons of beauty radically changed since the time when Romanian sayings went that a beautiful woman had to be fat or that a fat man was healthy. Entertainment media teach us that perfect people are thin. Nevertheless, the apparent triumph of this ideal of the body beautiful does not mean that fatter bodies totally lost their sex appeal or their power of fascination. Out of Europe, the relationships between humankind and fat can obviously differ, even in our globalized world.

    Cultural coordinates in present-day museology

    Five neologisms

    The International Conference Cultural Coordinates in present-day museology: Five neologisms is aimed at research that focuses on analysing the contemporary museological discourse and its effects on cultural communication. Numerous questions arise, for example, regarding curatorial practices, the new formulas of knowledge transmission, museology’s potential contributions to social cohesion, the mediation made possible by the new technologies and the critical contribution to be expected concerning issues such as gender demands, environmental sustainability and others. The sections are headed by the corresponding neologisms into which the themes that are the subject of debate and analysis are divided.

    Savoir - pouvoir - agir

    Congrès de la Société Suisse de Philosophie

    La relation entre « savoir », « pouvoir » et « agir » concerne de nombreux domaines de la vie sociale et de l’existence individuelle, ainsi que diverses disciplines. Pensons, par exemple, aux contextes politique, sanitaire et éducatif : Quels savoirs sont au service du pouvoir ? Quel est le point de rencontre, dans la pratique clinique, entre le « devoir de faire savoir » et le « droit de ne pas vouloir savoir » ? Comment enseigner à « agir » et à « être capable d’agir » ? Dans tous ces domaines, la philosophie peut accompagner une réflexion précise sur le concept de « savoir » sous ses différentes formes (connaissance théorique et connaissance pratique, connaissance universelle et connaissance du particulier, connaissance rationnelle et connaissance sensible), sur le concept de « pouvoir » comme capacité d’agir et de produire des effets ou comme autorité et domination, sur le concept d’« action » dans ses multiples implications, en premier lieu celle de la responsabilité envers soi-même et envers autrui.

    Práticas da História: Journal on Theory, Historiography and Uses of the Past

    It has now been 30 years since the English historian Robert John Morris, in an article entitled “History and Computing: Expansion and Achievements”, talked about a vision of the future “in which no historian could operate without being computer literate”. In 1991, he made an assessment of the past decade stating that “there has been a qualitative and quantitative revolution in the relationship between history and computing.”

    Making the Social World Objective

    Theoretical, Practical, and Visual Forms of Social and Economic Knowledge, 1850-2000

    This conference proposes to return to the manifold strategies and methods for objectifying and visualizing the social that were developed from the second half of the nineteenth century onwards. We will discuss these approaches with a focus on three themes. First, our aim is to analyze the way theoretical and practical sciences met and influenced each other in the case of statistics, empirical observations, working class family budgets among other forms of strategies meant to grasp the social. Second, we will pay close attention to the work of individuals and groups in subordinate positions and at the margins of dominant systems of knowledge production. How did these actors used new approaches in connections with their demands? Our third axis of study concerns statistical imaginaries and visual representations (Musée social, graphical charts, photographs, reliefs and statistical mechanisms).
