  Rethinking the Dialogue Between the Visual and the Textual

  Methodological Approaches to the Relationships Between Religious Art and Literature (1400-1700)

  In recent decades, the interactions between religious art(s) and literature(s) in the Late Middle Ages and Early Modern Period have been an important area of study for many scholars. More particularly, the study of the interconnectedness of texts and images and of the contact zones between visual arts and literature constitutes an emerging field that is particularly stimulating for both art historians and historians of literature. These scholarly interests generate a range of general methodological and theoretical questions: how can a text be used to understand an image? How can an image help to discern the meaning of a text? How do we interpret texts and images together in order to understand the religious culture of these periods? How do we consider them in relation to each other, without underestimating the specificities of each medium? What are the purposes of the combined study of these sources?

  Call for papers - History

  Crisis, Ideas and Policy Transformation

  Experts and Expertise in European International Organizations, 1973-1987

  Crisis and crisis experience were central to Western European history between the first oil crisis of 1973 and the coming into force of the Single European Act in 1987. European international organizations (IOs) such as the OECD or the EC played a crucial role in debating and addressing manifold dimensions of crisis, shifting discourses and transforming policies at national and European level. These IOs drew heavily on experts and their expertise in managing crisis and seeking solutions for structural problems. Organized jointly by the University of Portsmouth and Maastricht University, the workshop will investigate the diversity of experts and expertise cultures and analyze in comparative perspective different European sectors and policy fields. We invite paper proposals addressing the role of experts in European IOs, or advising them, in debating and managing crisis, diffusing ideas and transforming policies in the 1970s and 1980s.

  The Papacy and the East

  Intellectual debates and cross-cultural interactions, 1274-1439

  This symposium brings together scholars from different backgrounds to discuss intellectual relations and cultural interactions between the Papal curia and Christian communities and Churches of the Greek, Armenian, and Syriac East between 1274-1439. Fresh empirical analysis will provide new insights into this phase of East-West relations, offering a major laboratory to explore the actors, mechanisms, tools, ideas, and purposes of overseas cultural contacts.

  Seminar - Representation

  Serial narratives and transmediality

  Le séminaire a pour but de réfléchir aux fictions sérielles et transmédiatiques, c'est-à-dire aux fictions qui se déclinent, selon diverses modalités, sur plusieurs supports, et qui interrogent par conséquent les catégories traditionnelles du récit et de la fiction. Il s’agira, tout en resituant ces fictions complexes dans une évolution historique, de tenter de construire des outils méthodologiques capables de les appréhender, tant dans leur poétique et leur esthétique que dans une approche sociologique ou ancrée dans les cultural studies, en s’interrogeant sur les formats, sur la notion d’épisode, sur les transferts d’un support à l’autre, sur la réception de ces fictions ou sur les pratiques de fans.
