    Quoi de neuf dans la Scandinavie médiévale ?

    Figures historiques et mythiques nordiques dans les cultures contemporaines

    La Scandinavie médiévale nous a légué un patrimoine historique et culturel remarquable. Cette période a notamment été marquée par le phénomène viking qui, entre la fin du VIIIe siècle et le milieu du XIe siècle, a vu un accroissement des contacts et des échanges entre les Scandinaves et les autres Européens. À l’époque contemporaine, ce patrimoine est devenu une source d’inspiration inépuisable et l’objet de réinterprétations constantes... Cette journée d’étude se propose d’explorer les divers usages et réinterprétations des vikings et de la littérature scandinave médiévale à notre époque, aussi bien en envisageant leur place dans la production culturelle que leur évocation dans les débats sociétaux et historiographiques actuels.

    Seminar - Middle Ages

    Modern and contemporary representations of Northern Europe in medieval times

    Année 1 : historiographies

    Le séminaire (organisé par l'école doctorale sciences humaines et sociales Lille Nord de France) explorera la place de l’Europe du Nord médiévale dans les identités européennes. Programmé pour un cycle de trois années (2015-2017), ce séminaire interrogera la manière dont les Europes du Nord de la longue époque médiévale (de la fin de l’Empire romain à la Renaissance) apparaissent dans les représentations, savantes autant que populaires, des époques moderne (dès la Renaissance) et contemporaine (jusqu’aux productions culturelles les plus récentes). La première année, intitulée « Historiographies », se penchera sur l’étude savante de la période, en particulier sur l’étude du haut Moyen Âge comme « Âge héroïque ».

    The Seventh Century: Continuity or Discontinuity?

    The 2013 Edinburgh University Seventh Century Colloquium

    We are pleased to announce a call for papers for the 2013 Edinburgh University Seventh Century Colloquium, 28-29 May 2013. The colloquium is a two-day interdisciplinary conference for postgraduate students and early career researchers. The colloquium brings together scholars from different disciplines studying the seventh century in order to promote discussion and the cross-fertilisation of ideas. We will explore how wider perspectives can be used to formulate new approaches to source material, drawing out fresh perspectives on both the familiar and unfamiliar. Our general theme will be an examination of whether the seventh century can be studied as a unit across regions or whether the period represents a break in the longue durée. What was the level of discontinuity between the "long sixth" and "long eighth" centuries?
