Textual Bodies: Incarnation, Corporeality, and Affective Materialities through Literature
6th Meeting of Young Researchers of the SELGyC
In the contemporary context, marked by technological, cultural, and epistemological transformations that reconfigure our relationship with sensory experience, the body, and materiality, literature continues to function as a privileged space for critical reflection. In the face of discourses that tend to split, mediate, or dematerialize human experience, literary texts insist on the centrality of the body as a site of vulnerability, affect, and meaning-making.

Exploring Complicity and Conflict in the Relations between Anarchists and Environmentalists (19th–21st Centuries)
This multidisciplinary conference aims to explore the relations between anarchism(s) and ecology(ies) from the 19th century to the present day. It seeks to fill a historiographical blind spot by examining the richness of anarchist ‘environmental reflexivity’, from precursors such as Kropotkin and Reclus to their contemporary reconfigurations. Anarchism's historical rejection of centralised power structures and the productivism of the ‘machine age’ makes it one of the political traditions most in tune with current ecological imperatives. By revisiting these affinities and tensions, the conference will offer new insights into understanding social movements fighting for environmental justice.

Gérard Lebrun ou l’envers de la philosophie
Histoire et critique du discours philosophique
Le colloque « Gérard Lebrun ou l’envers de la philosophie » met à l’honneur une figure française de l’histoire de la philosophie de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle : Gérard Lebrun (1930-1999), Professeur d’histoire de la philosophie moderne à l’Université de Provence du début des années 1960 à la fin des années 1990, spécialiste de philosophie allemande classique et fin connaisseur de l’ensemble de l’histoire de la philosophie des Grecs aux contemporains. Pendant trente ans, Lebrun partagea son activité d’enseignant et de chercheur entre l’Université de Provence à Aix-en-Provence, l’Université de São Paulo au Brésil, et plus occasionnellement l’École Normale Supérieure de la rue d’Ulm, où il forma des générations d’étudiants. Son influence fut puissante et durable au Brésil, même si, en France, Lebrun est moins connu que d’autres « habitués » de l’USP des années soixante, tels Michel Foucault ou même Gilles Gaston Granger.

80th Anniversary of Jean-Marc Ferry
Born on May 5, 1946, Jean-Marc Ferry will celebrate his 80th birthday this year. On this occasion, The Center Heuristicum systematicum will host an international colloquium, on May 5–6. This will mark the kairos—the opportune moment—of discovery, sedimentation, deepening, promotion, and reflection upon the magisterial work of the thinker who has carried the process of “detranscendentalization” to its highest point. The Center invites academics, researchers, and all interested participants to share their reflections, research, or experiences on this occasion.

Call for papers - Political studies
The relationship between speech and politics is experiencing renewed interest today. Since Foucault, political theory has examined the scope of “speaking truth” as a form of resistance, most recently illustrated by the unleashing of speech in the #MeToo movement. In the age of social media, speech proves deeply ambivalent : it can wound just as much as it can help build a shared world. Theories of recognition remind us that democracy requires all voices to be heard, a condition still far from being fulfilled.

Politics and Narratives of the Body
The International Colloquium Politics and Narratives of the Body aims to open an interdisciplinary dialogue, considering the multiple ways of thinking, representing, embodying and writing corporeality, particularly in contemporary contexts. The policies created around the body generate diverse, dissenting, irreverent and complex narratives, discourses and poetics. In this way, the congress is expected to convene studies on the body and the policies and narratives built around it, from perspectives that include an interdisciplinary approach. Thus, different disciplines of the human, social and artistic sciences would converge in order to transversally think about corporeality.

Questes Seminar
Le séminaire de Questes, groupe de jeunes chercheurs médiévistes, prend pour thématique cette année les amitiés médiévales. Nous nous intéresserons autant aux théorisations philosophiques et théologiques de l’amitié au Moyen Âge qu'aux façons dont les médiévaux pratiquaient l’amitié et la réprésentaient dans les arts (littératures, arts graphiques, arts textiles, sculpture...).

From phenomenological to stereoscopic listening
Günther Anders and music
Anders’s work is rooted in a phenomenological approach that explores how human beings simultaneously inhabit both the world and music. For Anders, listening to music is not merely a sensory or aesthetic activity, but an ontological transformation of existence. This conference investigates Günther Anders’s musical thought, focusing on his phenomenology of listening and critique of technical media. It aims to reassess the relevance of his musicological writings through contemporary philosophical, aesthetic, and political lenses, bridging musicology, critical theory, translation studies, and intellectual history.

Online Bayle Seminar est un groupe d’étude et de recherche consacré à la figure de Pierre Bayle. Dans l’esprit même de la « République de Lettres » chère à Bayle, il se veut à la fois international et interdisciplinaire, et ambitionne de dépasser les cloisonnements entre écoles et approches qui ont parfois marqué les études bayliennes. Le sujet pour cette seconde année est « Éducation et pédagogie chez Bayle ». Que ce soit dans une perspective biographique ou philosophique, la question a touché de près la vie et la production de Bayle.

Speculative narratives from the margins
Social alternatives, decolonial ecologies, and critical knowledge
Choosing the margins as the main focus of this conference will help to examine how speculative fiction disrupts hegemonic narratives, bringing to light subaltern or minoritised modes of knowledge, temporality, and resistance; how it operates somewhere between the end of the world and the possibility of a new beginning to allow us to imagine other ways of inhabiting the Earth and of projecting ourselves collectively into the future. Proposals exploring these issues through the study of narrative processes, cultural appropriations, andintertextual circulations, will be welcome.

Anecdotes: Theory and Practice of Narrative
Journal Communications (2027) - varia
Across academic disciplines, the use of anecdote has received little attention. This despite the fact that they punctuate our professional and social practices : they are the stuff of our writing, our teaching, and our conversations. Present in the many sources, data, and materials that sustain the humanities and social sciences, anecdotes are also often decisive in the choice of our research objects. The freedom of tone that characterizes anecdotes allows overlooked or undervalued subjects to emerge, reshaping disciplines and their objects of study. The rise of research focused on marginalized people, social groups, and issues owes much to a renewed interest in sources once deemed unreliable – reported speech, hearsay, gossip, or indeed anecdote.

Religion in Societies: Multidisciplinary Approaches
The LLSETI (Laboratoire langages, littératures, sociétés, études transfrontalières et internationales) laboratory organizes its biennial study day dedicated to doctoral students, focusing in 2026 on “Societies and Religion.” This interdisciplinary event aims to combine approaches from literature, history, linguistics, philosophy, and social sciences to explore the multiple relationships between religion and society. Religion is considered in its diversity — institutions, beliefs, rituals, identities, relations to power, and secular forms — while also taking into account contemporary critiques of the concept itself. Proposals may address interactions between faith, society, culture, and politics, the construction of religious identities, or the ethical and moral dynamics arising from religious practice.
