Mobility & Interactions in the Meuse-Rhine Region (9th–15th Cent.)

Young researcher’s conference

Throughout the Middle Ages, from the kingdom of Lothar II to the creation of the first modern state boundaries, the region of the Rhine and Meuse lay at the crossroads between two big linguistic and cultural areas. Political tensions, artistic currents and waves of spiritual renewal continually crossed this vast territory, stretching from Utrecht to Basel and from Cambrai to Cologne and Strasbourg. After a first conference organized in April 2022 at the University of Trier, this second multidisciplinary encounter aims to bring together PhD students and post-doctoral researchers working on mobility and interactions in this region.

Educational reforms: contributions from subject didactics

La réforme du système éducatif reste par excellence un choix stratégique pour répondre aux exigences des changements socio-économique et socioculturel locaux et des mutations de l’éducation dans le monde. Toutefois, la question est de comprendre la collaboration entre les différents acteurs du secteur de l’éducation et de l’enseignement et la société. Réformer ou apporter des améliorations aux systèmes éducatifs nécessite donc autant de recherches sur et pour l’éducation. Mettre l’accent sur l’apport des recherches en didactiques et la rendre intelligible dans la réforme éducative requiert une analyse selon les orientations suivantes : une orientation productive visant la construction des politiques de l’éducation, une deuxième orientation explicative-compréhensive qui aborde les choix éducatifs (contenus, choix curriculaires, pratiques professionnelles, etc.) et une troisième orientation prospective ayant pour but de dégager les lignes de force pour penser les réformes des systèmes éducatif.

Land Use and Consumption in a Historical Perspective

Definitions, Concepts, and Methods

The relationship between societies and soil is intrinsic to human history. Nowadays, this relationship is strongly defined by land use and consumption practices that, at different scales, increasingly threaten the common good and the biodiversity conservation. Urban planning interventions and intensive forms of production lead to the fragmentation, erosion, and ultimately, transformation of soil into a commodity, a freely usable “raw material,” rather than recognizing it as a non-reproducible good. In such a context, a revision of the evolution of concepts of use, consumption, and artificialization of the soil can contribute to a better understanding of the perspectives and rhetoric developed over time and in relation to contemporary challenges.

Les mondes professionnels de l’ornement d’architecture : acteurs et pratiques du XVIIIe siècle à nos jours

The “Professional Worlds” of Architectural Ornament: Actors and Practices from the 18th Century to the Present Day

This symposium aims to contribute to a better understanding of the "professional worlds" of architectural ornament, by fostering a dialogue between two dynamic fields of research that have hitherto rarely been connected: the history of ornament and the history of professions linked to architecture and construction. Resolutely positioned on the side of craftspeople and professional practices, the various contributions will focus on: the spectrum of ornamental professionals; the relationships between professions and the concrete organization of production chains; and finally, the circulation of people, techniques, and material elements. Covering a wide range of geographical and cultural areas, they will cover a broad contemporary period – from the 18th century to the 2010s.

Technocritique(s). Reflection upon 3.3 million years of human technical externalization

Wherever digital solutions and artificial intelligence (AI) have spread, whatever the creative domain or human activity, the impression of having a total, even universal, all-terrain technology has never been so strong. We cannot ignore that the digital revolution, while apparently offering simplicity and ease-of-use is accompanied by a rather remarkable invisibilization of technology’s infrastructure, leaving its users ignorant to the processes and material elements that encompass even the simplest tools. Homo comfort, as the Italian anthropologist Stefano Boni calls it, lives in a hypertechnological world, in which he is ignorant of most of its systems. How can one understand the least-effort infrastructure in which we live when recontextualized within nearly 3.3 million years of technological externalization ? Were 3.3 million years of experimentation necessary to arrive at this point, or rather, did we need to collectively forget our entire history in order to accept our current situation?

Magic, divination, astrology and justice, from Antiquity to the present day

The aim of this dossier, published in the online journal Criminocorpus, is to look at the issue from a different angle and to see how magic (or what is described as ‘magic’), astrology or divination, which constitute fields of knowledge that are more or less lawful depending on the period, interfere with justice. Depending on the social and cultural context, these relationships bring into play the relationship between justice and science and religion, varying conceptions of judicial rationality and the role of society and, increasingly, public opinion with regard to so-called magical practices.

Labour, trade unionism and collective action in Africa

“Nouvelle Revue du Travail” corpus n°27

Call for Papers for the corpus n°27 of Nouvelle Revue du travail, to be published in autumn 2025. Contrary to a currently widespread belief, wage labour and trade unionism in Africa are not disappearing. However, wage-earning as a situation of subordination and social protection is still a minority position in Africa and is dependent on certain sectors and national histories. The same is true of trade unionism, which is a specialised activity that represents the interests of male and female workers, but with the exception of certain sectors or historical periods is often low in membership numbers, although (reliable) statistics are also scarce. What forms does trade unionism take in Africa in this exceptional context? How can it shed light on major contemporary issues surrounding the profiles of the defence, representation and collective action of workers around the world?

Call for papers - Representation

Museum, heritage, identity

Revue « Archipélies » n° 17, juin 2024

In this age of globalisation, when human identities are becoming increasingly complex as a result of multiple interconnections, cultures are obviously becoming increasingly plural in their expression of identity. While no culture has ever been monolithic, they are even less so today. Taken in this dynamic context – which implies, moreover, a diversified understanding of the heritage and the museum; in addition to the semantic and consubstantial variety of the concept of the museum – these three notions (museum, heritage and identity) have relationships between them which have an impact on the construction of cultural identities and which, therefore, merit attention in this world shaped by globalisation which, if it is not new, has a particular resonance in its modern and contemporary forms.

Intangible Cultural Heritage. Between Cultural Circulations and Heritage Tensions

“Sociétés & représentations” Journal, n° 60

Dans ce numéro de Sociétés & représentations, l’idée est de traiter la façon dont les représentations des identités qui transparaissent et s’énoncent à travers les patrimoines culturels immatériels, qu’ils soient ou non institutionnalisés, se construisent sur des discours, images et imageries de l’authenticité, de l’origine, des minorités, des rapports de domination, de l’assimilation et de l’appropriation culturelles. En dépit de toute la documentation produite par les historiens sur l’ampleur spatio-temporelle des circulations culturelles, les patrimoines immatériels tendent ainsi à devenir des nouveaux vecteurs de tensions émotionnelles qui s’inscrivent aussi dans des rapports géopolitiques (force, prestige, etc.) et géoéconomiques (exploitation économique, propriété intellectuelle, etc.).

The Culture of the Bottle. Uses and Visual Representations of Alcoholic Drinks in the 17th and 18th Centuries

The subject of alcoholic beverages (wine, beer, liqueurs, etc.) in the modern era has been embraced by the museum world, which has found it a pleasing and intriguing subject to attract audiences. By fostering a dialogue among researchers engaged in the exploration of this interdisciplinary annual symposium aims to scrutinize the concept of "alcoholic beverage" in France, Europe, and worldwide to better comprehend the methods and stakes related to its representation. A comprehensive approach to global exchanges and consumption patterns could shed light on a perspective often overly focused on Europe. Moreover, various disruptions, such as armed conflicts, droughts, and floods, intermittently disrupted the habits of European consumers.

Laughter in Japanese Literature from the Heian Period to the Meiji Era

Laughter is omnipresent and plays an essential role in the ancient Japanese literary tradition. Its study provides a cross-disciplinary approach to classical Japanese literature, transcending the boundaries of genres (poetry/prose) or periods (classical period, Edo period, Meiji era). More specifically, the purpose of this one-day symposium is to identify and analyse the forms of laughter present in the reputedly 'serious' genres of classical Japanese poetry (waka) and especially the novel of the Heian period, as well as in productions from later periods.

The philosophy of Marguerite Porete

“Philosophiques” journal - Spring 2025

De Marguerite Porete (m.1310) ne nous est parvenu qu’un seul ouvrage, Le miroir des âmes simples et anéanties et qui seulement demeurent en vouloir et désir d’amour. Dans ce traité d’édification spirituelle sont décrites les différentes étapes que l’âme peut parcourir jusqu’à l’état mystique. L’autrice y soutient que l’âme n’est véritablement libre que lorsqu’elle abandonne son agentivité à Dieu et que l’âme qui connaît l’état mystique n’est plus sous le joug des vertus ni d’« Église-la-petite ». Mettre au jour les contributions philosophiques de Marguerite Porete et discuter de celles-ci, telle est la visée de ce dossier de la revue Philosophiques. Celui-ci s’inscrit dans la volonté de développer le canon philosophique en l’étendant aux figures jusqu’à présent en marge de l’histoire de la pensée. Il invite, d’une part, des contributions sur la philosophie de Marguerite Porete et, d’autre part, des réflexions métaphilosophiques sur les apports de l’autrice à l’histoire de la philosophie.

A beautiful painting ? Aesthetic canon(s) and pictorial production within the Spanish Crown territories (16th-19th centuries)

Ces journées d’études sont consacrées à la question du beau dans la peinture produite dans les territoires de la Couronne d’Espagne (Espagne actuelle, mais également Sicile, Naples, Milan, Pays-Bas du Sud, Artois, Franche-Comté, ainsi que les territoires américains et philippins) du XVI^e siècle au début du XIX^e siècle. Elles visent à interroger à la fois la manière dont s’est forgé un idéal dans la peinture produite dans ces territoires, souvent associée dans l’historiographie à un canon « réaliste » ou « naturaliste », avec toutes les problématiques que ces termes impliquent, et la manière dont ce canon a été perçu et reçu, voire adapté, transformé aux différentes périodes. Qu’est-ce qui était considéré comme beau dans la peinture des territoires sous domination espagnole pendant les temps modernes ? Quel était l’idéal esthétique du peintre et du spectateur ? Le Beau était-il vraiment le premier objectif des peintres ?
