Field practices and epistemological issues, Palestine and Jordan
The workshop “Field practices and epistemological issues, Palestine and Jordan” aims to combine reflections on the ongoing development of Palestinian studies with the recent revival of work on Jordan, in order to examine Jordan's role as a privileged observation point for Palestine, a question that has been relatively unexplored until now. Through three main axes — archives and primary sources preserved in Jordan that enable the study of Palestine, the cross-border circulation of people and knowledge, and intersecting cultural scenes through the notions of identity and authenticity, this workshop aims to lay the groundwork for a transnational and multidisciplinary reflection on Jordan's place in the production of knowledge on Palestine.

Imagining a Future (inside/outside) Britain
S’inscrivant dans la perspective du champ interdisciplinaire des études sur le futur, et plus spécifiquement des études critiques sur le futur, ce colloque propose d’étudier la façon dont le futur du Royaume-Uni et des nations qui le composent a été imaginé à travers les périodes, sur des modes fictionnels et non-fictionnels. Nous nous intéresserons à la fois aux représentations du futur du Royaume-Uni dans son ensemble (le futur de l’État, de la société et de l’Union britanniques), et aux représentations du futur des différents territoires constitutifs du Royaume-Uni soit au sein de l’Union et de l’Empire, soit au contraire hors de ceux-ci.

Philosophical, Literary and Theological Perspectives
This online workshop explores the complex and often ambivalent relationship between violence and the sacred across philosophical, literary, and theological traditions. Far from being external to religion, violence has frequently appeared at the heart of myth, ritual, revelation, and political theology. The event seeks to examine how sacred narratives both justify and contest violence, how apocalyptic imaginaries structure historical consciousness, and how modern thought confronts the persistence of sacralized conflict.

Dream Balloons in China and Japan
Between the seventeenth and early twentieth centuries, dream representations in China and Japan made extensive use of speech balloons. Typically, a character has a dream that is represented within a balloon. This international one-day symposium is the second event organized within the Histoires de bulles program which aims to study the speech balloon as an object of knowledge, both in terms of its intrinsic characteristics and its visual and broader cultural ecosystem, with the ultimate goal of identifying an “economy of the balloon” and perhaps even sketching the outlines of a general theory.

Indian Transnational Families in Northern Ireland by Anik Nandi (Woxsen University)
The Case of Indian Transnational Families in Northern Ireland (UK): Intergenerational Transmission or the Anxiety of a Cultural Erasure
Immigration waves globally have enriched linguistic and cultural landscapes through the spread of Heritage Languages (HL). In Northern Ireland, the Indian community, one of the longest-established ethnic minorities since the 1920s, represents a vital yet often overlooked part of the region's diversity. While local policy focuses on Irish and Ulster-Scots, the linguistic dynamics of migrant families remain under-researched.

Identity Negotiation and Ethnic Diversity in the Ancient World
The conference Between Eagles and Dragons: Identity Negotiation and Ethnic Diversity in the Ancient World explores the processes through which ethnic identities were constructed, contested, and transformed across multi-ethnic societies of ancient Eurasia. Bringing into dialogue regions from the Mediterranean to India and China, the event aims to investigate how institutions, cultural practices, languages, and historical narratives shaped categories of belonging and otherness. By adopting a comparative and interdisciplinary perspective, the conference seeks to highlight the fluid, dynamic, and historically contingent nature of identity formation in the ancient world.

Conference, symposium - Early modern
The history and structure of gardens hold endless surprises and fascinating connections withother disciplines. Originally created as a natural but immutable place offering protection andshelter, gardens have evolved from the hortus conclusus to a place of fantastic architecture,celebrations and wonder. Despite the aesthetic development that was added to the symbolic oneof the medieval tradition, the garden never completely lost its medicinal and practical function,featuring areas dedicated to fruit trees, greenhouses reserved for exotic crops or plants whosemedicinal or dyeing properties were well known

Galant Eroticism and Its Markets (1650-1720)
This conference aims to explore the emergence, from the second half of the seventeenth century onward in France, of a new market for eroticism, linked to the development of the galanterie, understood here as an ideal of sociability grounded in values such as refinement, playfulness, and equality between the sexes. Drawing on a wide range of media – whether texts, images, engravings, or music – participants will be invited not only to question the renewed representations that characterize this new eroticism, but also to examine its conditions of production, circulation, and reception, in France and, more broadly, on a European scale.

Animal Behaviour and Environments: Ecological Perspectives from Antiquity to the Present
This conference aims, through a resolutely interdisciplinary approach, to explore the relations between animals and their environments. Bringing together scholars in ancient and medieval philology, the history of zoological knowledge, and contemporary ecological sciences, the event seeks to examine how living beings interact with their surroundings—and how these interactions have been conceptualised, described, and modelled from Antiquity to the present. Two main thematic axes will structure the discussion: 1. Animals and Environments: Ancient and Modern Ecologies; 2. Animal Ecological Awareness: Perception, Umwelt, and Narrative Models
