Catholic Intellectuals in France in the mid-20th Century
Following the success of the journée d’étude ‘Engaging with Engagement: French Catholic Thought 1930-50’, held at Magdalen College in May 2010, this conference will continue and extend exploration of different types of French Catholic intellectual engagement during the mid-twentieth century, against the backdrop of the ‘crises’ of civilization of the interwar period through to the war years and beyond. The formation of Catholic identities, in their artistic, philosophical, theological and political manifestations, and the shifting norms and values of political and social commitments in relation to their cultural and theological fault lines, are central to our concerns. -

The Appropriations of Public Policies by Citizens
Sixth International Conference in Interpretive Policy Analysis
Au-delà des oppositions entre les approches « top down » et « bottom up » de l’action publique, rares sont les travaux questionnant les appropriations des politiques par leurs publics. Les publics des institutions ne constituent pas un ensemble homogène et on peut différencier les attitudes des acteurs sociaux face à la mise en œuvre des politiques dans différents secteurs. On peut faire l’hypothèse que les trajectoires, ressources et propriétés sociales des administrés influent sur les appropriations qu’ils font de l’action publique. -

Miscellaneous information - Language
Depuis une vingtaine d'années, Jean-Marie Schaeffer s'est imposé dans la philosophie française comme celui qui a su renouveler profondément la théorie des arts en la faisant reposer sur des fondements analytiques et cognitivistes. Faisant droit à l'anthropologie et à une approche naturaliste à la fois de la production et de la réception de la fiction, il a permis de redéfinir la relation esthétique en insistant sur sa dimension pragmatique plutôt que sémantique. Son œuvre se trouve ainsi au cœur des débats les plus récents dans le domaine de l'esthétique philosophique. -

Classics lectures "Artemidorus' Dreambook" and "Greek Agrarian History"
Les premiers travaux de Christophe Chandezon ont montré l'importance de la documentation épigraphique pour l'histoire économique et sociale de la Grèce antique. Ses recherches sur la société rurale et pastorale ont permis d'ouvrir des perspectives nouvelles sur l'économie antique et plus généralement sur l'histoire de l'agriculture et des relations entre les hommes et les animaux domestiques. Dans le cadre du groupe de chercheurs de l'université Paul-Valéry travaillant sur le traité de divination par les rêves d'Artémidore, Christophe Chandezon s'intéresse par ailleurs au rôle que jouent les représentations sociales dans la construction de l'imaginaire antique.
