    The Palace of the Prince-Bishops of Liège in the Sixteenth Century: Power, Culture and Architecture in the Renaissance

    This conference offers a fresh perspective on the Palace of the Prince-Bishops of Liège in the 16th century, examining it as a place of power, representation, and artistic creation. Drawing on a critical re-examination of the archives and a material analysis of the monument, the conference will explore the political, cultural, and architectural ambitions that shaped the palace. Structured around three themes—historical and diplomatic context, artistic and intellectual dynamics, and a study of construction sites, materials, and techniques—it aims to convey the full complexity of this iconic site in the history of the Principality of Liège.

    Blanche de Castille

    Exercer le pouvoir au féminin (1226-1252)

    Given the exceptional position held by Blanche of Castile, widow of the late Louis VIII and mother of the new king, powerful woman, within Latin Christendom for nearly a quarter of a century, the anniversary of the start of her ‘regency’ seemed to us a fitting occasion to highlight recent advances in the historiography of Blanche of Castile. This conference therefore aims to shed light on his reign – from the scale of his personal domain to that of Latin Christendom – and his life’s journey, from his Castilian origins to his final resting place in the abbeys of Maubuisson and Le Lys, and indeed right up to the present day.

    Raul Hilberg, a Historian and his Century

    Writing the History of the Holocaust Then and Now

    The Destruction of the European Jews (1961) de Raul Hilberg (1926-2007) demeure à ce jour un ouvrage de référence dans la recherche sur la Shoah. L’histoire complexe de sa genèse et de sa réception invite à interroger à la fois le contenu et les formes de l’écriture de l’histoire de la Shoah. Que peut nous apporter la lecture de l’œuvre de Raul Hilberg aujourd’hui ? Dans le cadre d’un colloque international (Paris, 8-10 novembre 2026), il s’agira de réexaminer la trajectoire professionnelle et l’œuvre de Raul Hilberg sous différents angles, d’en évaluer l’impact sur la recherche actuelle et future sur la Shoah ainsi que sur l’historiographie des génocides en général.

    Desktop Films: Forms, Uses, Circulations

    This conference stems from an interest in an emerging form of filmmaking, the desktop film or screen film, arising from the convergence of two related phenomena: the exponential acceleration in the circulation of moving images enabled by digitization and the development of Web 2.0, and the evolutions in audiovisual and media creation that incorporate digital aesthetics and practices into their modes of operation. Positioning ourselves within the field of post-media studies initiated by Lev Manovich in 2001, and more specifically within what is now referred to as the field of “post-cinema”, this conference seeks to foster a resolutely interdisciplinary reflection (Art Studies, Film and Audiovisual Studies, Information and Communication Sciences, Cognitive Sciences, Anthropology, Narratology, etc.) structured around the following axes: semiotic and multimodal approaches; narrative and discursive approaches; actors and Networks; archaeology of the Desktop Film.

    Research on the Displacement of French Document Collections in Europe (1930–1950)

    In June 2027, La Contemporaine will host an international symposium dedicated to the study of the displacement of documentary collections across Europe, including France, between the 1930s and 1950s. At the crossroads of historical studies, book history and provenance research, this event aims to document and analyse the trajectories of these documentary collections, whether or not they were subject to spoliation. An overview of similar research in other countries and of the challenges posed by the documentary processing of collections will complete this analysis.

    Phraseological Universals in Natural Languages

    Revue « Neophilologica », n° 38

    The study of linguistic universals, closely tied to linguistic typology, seeks to identify features shared across natural languages despite their diversity. These universals — traditionally classified as phono-logical, grammatical, semantic, and symbolic — aim to formalize the invariants of human language, often in connection with cognition and perception. While linguistic typol-ogy focuses on differences between languages, the study of universals defines their con-straints, delineating the boundaries of possible variation.

    Contextual Physics of Ambiances

    International Journal of Sensory Environment, Architecture and Urban Space

    Architectural ambiances encompass a complex interplay of sensory, emotional and cultural perceptions that shape how a space is experienced. Regarding their physical dimensions, ambiances include elements such as light, sound, textures, temperature and odours, which are shaped through social and spatial configurations to create a unique experience. The physical metrology of ambiance phenomena, relying on precise measurement tools and protocols, allows for an analysis of the objectifiable dimensions of sensory phenomena.

    Thinking from the Dual – Ontology, Theology and the Humanities through the Lens of the “Muthannā”

    This international conference explores the philosophical and theological implications of the Arabic grammatical dual (al-muthannā). Situated between the paradigms of unity and multiplicity that have long structured philosophical thought, the dual offers a distinctive relational structure in which two terms are held together without fusion or hierarchy. Taking this linguistic form as a conceptual starting point, the conference investigates the possibility of thinking relation itself as originary. Particular attention will be given to the concept of ʿahd (covenant, pact, commitment) as a relational event in Islamic theology and beyond. Bringing together philosophers, theologians, and scholars from the humanities and social sciences, the conference seeks to open a field of inquiry devoted to the ontological, theological, and anthropological significance of the dual in contemporary thought.

    Qui écrit, dans les arts, l’histoire, selon quelles sélections et omissions, pour qui et à quelle fin ? Comment la production artistique dans l’espace public a-t-elle célébré les grands hommes et les femmes illustres, les génies artistiques, ou bien parfois effacé volontairement les mémoires ? Comment enfin s’élaborent dans les arts les contre-récits à Venise ?

    Anarchy and polyarchy: the legacy of two classical Greek concepts at the crossroads between politics and religion (3rd century BC–5th century AD)

    This conference aims to study the history and evolution of two classical Greek concepts, anarchy and polyarchy, whose legacy, considered from the 3rd century BC to the 5th century AD, unfolds at the crossroads between politics and religion. It will explore the transmission of the classical Greek, and particularly Platonic, condemnation of anarchy and polyarchy, and its connection with the apologia for monarchy in political and philosophical thought during the Hellenistic and Roman periods and in Judeo-Christian thought.
