  IX Colóquio de Estudos Vikings e Escandinavos

  A nova edição do Colóquio de estudos Vikings e Escandinavos retoma uma perspectiva mais voltada aos estudos históricos e arqueológicos, imprescindíveis para uma compressão objetiva dos aspectos sociais e culturais envolvendo o período da Alta Idade Média na Escandinávia. A nova edição do evento busca se adequar nas atuais interpretações sobre a História e Historiografia do mundo nórdico, mas também reforçar o estudo das fontes materiais em seus variados aspectos, concedendo aos pesquisadores latino-americanos e falantes da língua portuguesa novas possibilidades de investigações, diálogos e perspectivas.

  Walruses, Whales and Narwhals

  Maritime Ivories in Western Europe, 900-1500

  In the history of carved ivories, maritime mammals have often been eclipsed by the elephant, considered as a nobler ivory to which walrus or whale ivory would only be a poor man's substitute. But this historiographical view is not without its shortcomings, as not only did walrus hunting play a significant role in the first European explorations toward the west, but the trade for those ivories went as far as the Islamic world and even the Far East. This session at the 52^nd International Congress on Medieval Studies, sponsored by the National Museum of Scotland, aims to address the variety of questions posed by the maritime ivories: how the raw material was collected, how it was traded, the workshops that carved them and their specific symbolic value in medieval treasuries

  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 ».
