    Reading Chaucer outside the Anglophone World: Receptions, Translations, and Traditions

    In Sondry Ages and Sondry Londes

    The recent Mandarin Chinese translation of The Canterbury Tales (Linking Publishing, 2025) by Dr. Francis K. H. So offers a timely opportunity to reflect on the growing presence, vitality, and diversity of Chaucerian studies outside the Anglophone world. This significant contribution not only opens new avenues for engaging with Geoffrey Chaucer’s language and narrative art, but also foregrounds the crucial role of translation, pedagogy, and local scholarly traditions in shaping how Chaucer is read, interpreted, and taught across different linguistic and cultural contexts.

    Worked shells in the ancient world

    Material, use, typology, chronology and contexts

    We are glad to inform you that an international e-conference on worked shells in the ancient world will take place on May 20, 2026 on Zoom.us. This forthcoming online meeting will be an archaeomalacological workshop in honour of Jean-Paul Descœudres from the Universities of Geneva and Sydney. Papers are invited to present evidence of human collection and modification of shells from all over the ancient world (especially the Mediterranean) and over a large chronological range (from Prehistory to Antiquity with a focus on the Roman world). We are interested in worked shells rather than those used as food or as environmental indicators.

    Sculpture et trompe l’œil dans la céramique européenne, de Bernard Palissy à aujourd’hui

    La présente édition, dédiée à la céramique européenne, souhaite aborder les questions relatives à la sculpture figurative en ronde bosse, à la sculpture en relief et au trompe l’œil, tous en céramique. Ceci inclut l’imitation d’autres matériaux, comme le bois ou les pierres précieuses, et la représentation mimétique d’animaux et de plantes. La sculpture et le trompe l’oeil sont des thèmes récurrents mais peu étudiés de façon globale dans l’art de la céramique européenne, même pas dans la céramique Art Déco, qui use fréquemment de formes sculpturales, tant dans les services, que dans les pièces purement décoratives.

    From the Baltic Sea Region to the Iberian Peninsula

    The Art at the time of Michel Sittow (c. 1469-1525)

    The year 2025 marks the 500th anniversary of Michel Sittow’s death in his hometown of Reval (now Tallinn). Sittow’s life, career, and œuvre exemplify how, in the Late Medieval and Early Modern world, professional mobility was no less significant than it is today. The seminar aims to explore the international visual and political contexts surrounding Sittow in order to better understand his experiences within the artistic production and visual culture of late fifteenth- and early sixteenth-century Europe.

    Late Medieval Cardinals Between Crises

    From the Western Schism to the V Lateran Council (1378-1517)

    The history of the cardinalate, which stretches from the 11th century to the present day, went through one of the most volatile phases of its development between the beginning of the Western Schism (1378) and the close of the Fifth Lateran Council (1517). This congress aims to work and reflect on these cardinals, both as a group, gathered in the Sacred College, and in their individual dimensions, as lords, members of lineages, pastors, reformers, conciliarists, centres of courts, families and networks, diplomats and representatives of nations, patrons of the arts, among others.  The cross-sectional interest of this congress stems from the desire to feed the historiographical renewal that has been taking place over the last two decades on the medieval cardinalate, seeking to bring together researchers who are dedicated to its study, regardless of the angle of approach they may take.

    La Toison d’or, trophée pour des héros ambigus de l’Antiquité au Moyen Âge

    Si la quête argonautique et son dénouement tragique sont bien étudiés dans leur versant gréco-latin, leur devenir au Moyen Âge fait l’objet d’analyses moins nombreuses. Dans l’ensemble du corpus, l’imaginaire de la Toison d’or et les récits encadrant la quête argonautique restent aussi moins explorés. Phrixos, voué au sacrifice par son père Athamas, échappe à la mort grâce au bélier à la Toison d’or : l’animal mène le jeune homme en Colchide et prend symboliquement sa place sur l’autel. La Toison, dépouille sacrificielle, lui garantit pouvoir et fécondité. Une génération plus tard, Jason, parent de Phrixos, revendique ce trophée pour établir à son tour son royaume et sa lignée. Son mariage avec Médée assure temporairement sa victoire, mais la déloyauté du héros lui en ôte les fruits. Cette rencontre invite à replacer les deux héros dans leurs traditions parallèles et dans leur lien à ce trophée ambigu.

    Chaucer à l’ère du médiévalisme

    In sondry ages and sundry londes

    L’œuvre de Geoffrey Chaucer, loin d’être confinée à son époque, continue de rayonner à travers les âges, inspirant une multitude de représentations postmédiévales. Le poète lui-même constitue une figure régulièrement convoquée, parfois même sans lien direct avec ses textes, ce qui suggère une postérité autonome de Chaucer en tant qu’homme et artiste. Que ce soit à travers le prisme du cinéma, de la musique, du théâtre, de la télévision, de la poésie ou de bien d’autres formes artistiques, le poète demeure une source inépuisable d’inspiration et de réinterprétation. Ce colloque invite à s’interroger sur la façon dont les adaptations et les réinterprétations de Chaucer et/ou de son œuvre par des artistes d’horizons culturels divers enrichissent notre compréhension de son héritage. Ses différentes incarnations au fil des siècles soulèvent en effet des problématiques fascinantes sur le dialogue interculturel, la politique de la mémoire et l’évolution de la culture populaire.

    Les mondes de la neutralité prémoderne (1400-1800) : institutions, normes et pratiques

    Ce symposium vise à apporter de nouvelles perspectives à l’étude de la longue durée du concept de neutralité, en se concentrant sur sa dimension « pré-moderne » au sens large (vers 1400-1800). En effet, le droit de la neutralité a commencé à émerger au début de l'époque moderne à travers les pratiques et les croyances du système étatique européen, mais aussi à partir de ses interactions avec des systèmes normatifs et culturels non européens. Des angles d'approche différents mais complémentaires peuvent être utilisés pour comprendre ce phénomène : par exemple, l'histoire diplomatique, l'histoire des relations internationales, l'histoire politique, l'histoire économique et l'histoire du droit. Tout au long de l'histoire, les politiques ainsi que les acteurs privés ont interprété la neutralité de manière flexible et divergente, proposant parfois une approche proactive-affirmative ou une approche plus passive. énéficiant de perspectives disciplinaires multiples, le symposium prend en considération à la fois la théorie et la pratique de la neutralité, faisant progresser notre connaissance de la conceptualisation souvent contestée des régimes juridiques en mer comme sur terre. Une telle conceptualisation dépend de l'interaction entre les situations de paix et de guerre, divergeant à travers différentes coordonnées temporelles et spatiales.

    Local powers toward central authorities: Decision-making process in medieval urban societies

    2nd Lectures on social contract

     The scientific summit is dedicated to bringing together different specialists who analyse the discursivities of decision-making developed in medieval towns and other local instances of political governance. The goal of this seminar is centred in exploring the dynamics between the local and the central spheres of power, following an understanding on how those dynamics build their communication strategies from communal institutions side to interact with —or, even though, resist to— their so-called sovereign authorities. These communication channels often operated networks of semantic change between the local spheres, where political decisions were performed, and the higher spheres with jurisdictional power over them.

    Urban societies in medieval Europe

    IX International Conference on the Middle Ages

    The study of medieval urban societies continues to be important and necessary to understand their composition, inequalities and complexity, as well as their role in the construction and experience of urban space. It also makes it possible to observe the different stages of life (childhood, youth, maturity and old age) of its inhabitants, their emotions and the relationships they established between themselves and with the outside world, and therefore the management and resolution of conflicts. These elements fuelled representations of urban society, both in discourses and practices and in material testimonies, which it is important to continue to understand and deepen. With a focus on Christian, Islamic and Jewish Europe, researchers from any scientific discipline (History, Archaeology, History of the Art, Literature, among others) are invited to present proposals for sessions and/or individual presentations.

    The Many Faces of Paul

    Pauline Exegesis in Pre-modern Times

    The conference on the Many Faces of Paul is the opening workshop of the research project “Exegesis of Paul in the 16th Century”, funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation. Other than the project itself which will mainly focus on Reformation theology, our interest for this conference is to focus on other intellectual traditions, be they late antique, medieval, or early modern, that will help us later to contextualize Protestant perspectives. We are therefore deliberately interested in presentations on a broad spectrum of possible figures and sources, and we welcome contributions on the whole corpus that was historically associated with the Apostle, including the Epistle to the Hebrews and apocryphal material such as the Acta Pauli.

    The European space. Geo-economic balances and State powers in the long run

    In the construction of the European space(s) a crucial role has been played by economic actors and relations, which often overpass national borders and intertwin with the nature and roles of political powers and national States. Even well before the last globalization (or re-globalization), traditional government systems were pressed by the internationalization of economies: by centrifugal pushes, the need for external resources, or the emergence of new actors on the international stage in economic, technical, and social fields, that have increasingly influenced both the private and the public life. In more recent times, then, a new institutional framework developed at the supranational, European, level getting new functions and involving actors, such as trade unions, charities, business interests, scientific institutions, and churches, reinforcing the dynamics of cooperation, integration, and convergence beyond national borders.
