From Polarity to Circumpolarity: The Future of Canadian Studies in Europe
This multidisciplinary conference examines how the deconstruction of the dualisms that have dominated in Western thought since the 17th century takes shape in Canadian studies. Building on the Canadian landscape and scholarship on its nordicity, we hypothesize a move from polarity to circumpolarity in Canadian studies conducted in Europe. This multidisciplinary conference welcomes proposals from all fields of research, in the hope of bringing together complementary perspectives on the (circum)polarities in Canadian studies.

« Revue Québécoise de psychologie » (hiver 2025)
Au cours des dernières années, les catastrophes naturelles semblent avoir pris de l’ampleur. Ces événements naturels extrêmes bouleversent la vie de millions d’individus à travers le monde. Ils affectent profondément le bien-être des familles, des groupes et des sociétés et font émerger de nouvelles générations de personnes traumatisées. La recherche scientifique et la pratique clinique ont un rôle décisif à jouer et peuvent influencer l’orientation des politiques internationales de gestion des catastrophes naturelles et l’organisation des systèmes de santé.

Lire la littérature et les arts visuels du monde anglophone avec le Lacan de l’après-encore
Reading English-language Arts and Literature with the Later Lacan
Lacanian analysis of literature and the arts has not been in vogue in France for some time now. Following the publication of Écrits in 1966, there was a period of analytic fascination with the imaginary capture of the mirror phase and its intersection with the structures of the symbolic in both literary and film studies. Since the 1980s, academic engagement with Lacanian theory in the cultural field has been in a slump, and this for several reasons: the reputed difficulty of Lacan’s style as apprehended through Ecrits, the opposition of numerous feminist critics, and the general decline of theory in the field of literary studies. Today, in light of the growing force of scientistic conceptions of the human subject (at the level of intelligence, behaviour, reproduction, the limits of the body, mortality), Lacanian theory finds renewed relevance in its unwavering postulate of the subject as singular, unique and incalculable, insusceptible to scientific conclusiveness.
