La Méditerranée des architectes et le monde (XVIII-XXe siècle)
Ce colloque porte sur le thème de l’exil des architectes dans le pourtour de la Méditerranée et au-delà, depuis le milieu du XVIIIe siècle jusqu’aux décennies récentes. L’exil à l’époque contemporaine, traversée par de nombreux conflits et changements politiques, est riche de récits, bien documenté concernant la trajectoire contrainte des artistes, écrivains, cinéastes et intellectuels, mais il ne l’est que partiellement sur les architectes, alors que leur circulation migratoire entre continents s’est accentuée. L’exil pendant la période moderne reste également à explorer.

Trade and its representations. commercial activity in art and architecture during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries
During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the many transformations and significant expansion of commercial activities led to the diversification of consumption and the expansion of commercial areas. These phenomena reflected improvements in transport conditions, better organisation of trade networks and the resources of capitalism. The images and literature related to the world of commerce diversified and transformed society’s perception of this practice and its players (pedlars, itinerant merchants, manufacturers, wholesalers, entrepreneurs, etc.). How do the representations of these places of professional sociability reflect these societal changes?

“Teaching the Manner of Performing all Steps…” The Technical Dance Treatises (1700-1750)
International conference Celebrating the 300th anniversary of the publication of “Le Maître à danser” by Pierre Rameau (1725)
The year 2025 will mark the 300th anniversary of the publication of a major work for the understanding of the dance of the 18th century: The Dancing-Master which Teaches the Manner of Performing all the Different Steps in Dancing in All Regularity of the Art and How to Move the Arms with Each Step by Pierre Rameau (1674-1748). On the anniversary of this publication, we wish to review the history and the content of the Maître à danser, but also the circumstances of its creation, situating it more generally in the history of treatises on dance technique during the first half of the 18th century. The conference will also cover practices of which the treatise merely bears traces of, which have only been revealed in recent research. The objective of this colloquium will thus be twofold: To gain a fuller picture of the role of this work in the 18th century and its effects on current practices in the reconstruction of Early Dance.

At the crossroads of literary, ethical and political issues, this conference aims to examine the depiction of mobility in European prison literature: because the prison space is the place of prevented mobility, prison literature confers a central and paradoxical part on movement, whether concrete or metaphorical.

"Monarch of All I Survey:" Literary Posterity and Cultural Legacies
We invite submissions for an international conference exploring the literary posterity of the phrase "I am monarch of all I survey" from William Cowper's 1782 poem. Cowper's lines have echoed through centuries of literature and criticism, embodying themes of imperial control, sight, and isolation, while remaining notably ambiguous. How has this ambivalence been reinterpreted across different cultural contexts and literary genres, from British Romanticism to contemporary postcolonial discourse? This conference seeks to engage with the far-reaching impact of Cowper's words across a wide array of literary and theoretical frameworks.

Revue « Afriques. Débats, méthodes et terrains d’histoire »
In this issue, we wish to focus on historical approaches - in the broadest sense of the term - which aim to understand economic mechanisms in relation to political, cultural and social phenomena within African societies and in the context of their times, without necessarily addressing their potential links with the present. We wish authors to focus on economic processes that were internal to societies, including interactions with external institutions (and especially imperial institutions), provided that these interactions shed light on the workings of African societies. Our goal is also to consider the documentary challenges facing historians.

Ce colloque junior propose de revenir au concept de Bildung, notion cardinale de l’histoire des idées européennes. Il s’agira, d’une part, de poursuivre la remise à jour des discours canoniques sur la Bildung au XVIIIe siècle et de mettre en lumière les discours dissonants ou marginaux qui lui sont aussi consacrés, d’autre part. Cette tension entre canon et marge sera étudiée au sein des champs philosophique et religieux, dans lesquels émergea et se développa la pensée de la Bildung.

La Révolution française : quels espaces et quels environnements pour les femmes ?
Les travaux sur les révoltes alimentaires pendant la Révolution française ont permis de documenter le rôle des femmes, « évidentes émeutières » pour reprendre l’expression d’Arlette Farge. Cependant, leur action ne saurait se limiter à la question du prix du pain. Leur implication dans la préservation et la promotion des « communs » tant urbains que ruraux est aujourd’hui au cœur des préoccupation de l’historiographie. Emeutières mais aussi braconnières, contrebandières, herbières ou colporteuses, les femmes ont contribué à forger une certaine idée de l’environnement construite autour du « droit à la subsistance ». Comment les femmes investissent-elles l’espace, comment le vivent-elles ? Qu’y font-elles ? Comment l’occupent-elles ? autant de questions qu’il s’agit de se poser dans une histoire renouvelée de la Révolution vue d’en bas.

The Culture of Suspicion: Creating Suspects in the Age of Revolutions
The workshop will examine the impact of suspicion in the age of the Atlantic Revolutions (from around 1770 to 1830) in Europe and its colonial territories. We invite contributions that focus on the question of how individuals or groups of people became suspects of hostility towards the existing monarchical or revolutionary order, and thus potentially subversive. Contributions may deal with the narrative construction of suspicion as well as the practical surveillance measures and juridical proceedings that were used against the suspects.

Les villes et les infrastructures hydrauliques : ressource et contrainte
Les objectifs sont d’une part d'examiner à travers les divers aménagements, comment les sociétés ont maîtrisé l'eau, façonné des paysages urbains et interurbains spécifiques et d’autre part d’étudier la prise en compte de ce patrimoine hydraulique dans les projets urbains actuels ou à venir, vis-à-vis de la fragilisation des territoires en plein changement climatique.

Identité(s) en voyage à l’époque moderne (XVIe-XVIIIe siècles)
L’objectif de ce colloque est d’interroger l’expérience identitaire des voyageurs à l’époque moderne (XVI-XVIIIe) et les discours auxquels elle donne lieu dans les récits de voyage et autres écrits ayant trait au voyage. Le déplacement dans des contrées étrangères et la rencontre d’autres populations est en effet à l’origine d’une expérience de trouble identitaire pouvant conduire les voyageurs à une forme d’acculturation, ou au contraire à une redéfinition de leur propre identité. Il s’agira notamment de circonscrire les contours de ce discours identitaire, pluriel, en parti orienté par le statut du voyageur (missionnaire, diplomate, marchand, curieux, etc.).

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.

The suppression of the Society of Jesus in 1773 marks the last step of the Order’s progressive dissolution initiated fifteen years earlier, in Europe and in its colonies. This act of suppression was the culmination of a broader secularisation movement concerning religious congregations across Europe, from the 1760s to the French Revolution. Several studies have already investigated the dispersal of abolished congregations’ assets in different parts of Enlightened Europe, but a broader overview is yet to be drawn. Furthermore, it is necessary to define common characteristics of confiscation procedures and real properties’ functional transformations during the three decades before the nationalisation of Church property undertaken in France in 1789.
