  Complaining about Medicine

  In recent years, studies into experiences of health care have led historians to engage with the issue of the medical complaint. As expressions of dissatisfaction, disquiet and failings in service provision, the complaint is both a vital antidote to progressive histories of health care and, in generating contemporary investigation and debate, has also left a fertile seam for historical research. Often it is only when things go wrong that we begin to understand thecomplexity at work in past events. This two-day international conference will explore what has happened historically when medicine generated complaints.

  Res Antiquitatis. Journal of Ancient History, volume 3, 2012

  The Centro de História de Além-Mar (CHAM) is accepting proposals of articles for vol. 3 of Res Antiquitatis. Journal of Ancient History (2012).

  The Nation and its "Repatriates"

  Pieds Noirs and German Expellees in a Comparative Perspective

  L’Allemagne et la France ont intégré des millions d’émigrés après la seconde guerre mondiale et la décolonisation, que ce soient les expulsés des territoires de l’Est ou les rapatriés européens d’Algérie. En dépit de parallèles notables, les deux processus ont généralement été étudiés isolément. Le colloque international propose de les mettre systématiquement en perspective et se concentre sur les questions suivantes : quelle signification les territoires perdus avaient-ils pour la France et l’Allemagne ? Quel a été l’impact de l’intégration des expulsés et des pieds-noirs dans les deux sociétés ? Comment a-t-on commémoré l’exode, l’exil et l’expulsion, à quels conflits et controverses ont-ils donné lieu à l’échelle nationale et internationale ?

  Discourses on the Method in Early Modern England: Towards a Modern Order?

  À la Renaissance, les controverses philosophiques et scientifiques, ainsi que les nombreuses traductions de Platon créent les conditions d’un débat autour de l’idée de méthode, Aristote ayant été l’autorité incontestée en la matière jusque-là. Dès les années 1530, l’interrogation sur la méthode devient centrale, dans le domaine de la rhétorique, puis de la dialectique. Le terme « méthode » est ainsi redéfini tout au long du XVIe siècle et continue à faire l’objet de nombreuses querelles au siècle suivant. Dans un contexte où les disciplines ne sont pas encore distinctes, on recherche une méthode universelle qui offre une interprétation globale et générale du monde, mais la méthode est aussi perçue comme un outil de vulgarisation scientifique.
