    Brazil, an independent country ?

    Rethinking “dependency theory” 200 years after 1822

    On the occasion of the bicentennial of Brazil’s proclamation of independence (September 7,1822), this conference examines the paradigm of “dependency theory.” We will consider both how Brazilian intellectuals contributed to dependency theory and what their analyses offer for thinking about Brazil’s independence and place in the world today. The oeuvre of Brazilian dependentistas insisted on the impossibility of understanding the history of Brazil and Latin America without considering the complex dynamics between the national and the international, between domestic political and economic structures and the broader world system of which they were part. This conference, 200 years after Brazil’s formal independence, evaluates the promise and limitations of their analysis, at once historicizing dependency theory and using the authors associated with it to better understand the present.

    Spotlight on the mine

    When cinema and literature take hold of the subject

    As part of the exhibition organised around this theme, the Centre Historique Minier has launched a call for papers for an international conference Spotlight on the mine, when cinema and literature take hold of the subject. In the contemporary era, mining has formed the subject of numerous artistic performances, particularly in the fields of writing and literature (mine novel, testimony, poetry, comic strip …), on the one hand, as well as in the world of cinema and audiovisual arts (fiction, documentary, animated film …). These representations have served as a place of artistic innovation, as well as a medium for mass culture (which developed alongside the mining industry), to such an extent that veritable sub-genres (the mine novel, the mine film) have been created, each with their own archetypes.

    Out of the shadows: Women and literary heritage

    Organisé dans le cadre du projet FEATHER [The Feather and literary work : French-speaking female authors of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg as literary precursors (1900-2020)], le cycle de conférences Women and literary heritage a vocation à éclairer les liens complexes et multiples des autrices au canon littéraire et les nombreuses considérations (historiques, littéraires et sociologiques notamment) qu’ils convoquent. Il s’agira d’interroger, dans une perspective résolument multidisciplinaire croisant la littérature, la sociologie de la littérature et les études de genre, le champ littéraire dans lequel évoluent les œuvres des femmes, partie intégrante d’un héritage invisible.

    The challenges of feminisation of football and other ball sports: issues, good practices and new representations

    The aim of this conference is to update and renew our understanding of women’s football and other ball sports. The aim is to analyse the issues at stake in terms of good practice and to observe the new representations that they give rise to. Beyond the obstacles and constraints that weigh on women footballers, or even ball sportswomen, the actions and experiences that allow them to develop will be defined and commented on. Both multidisciplinary and indisciplinary, this conference brings together researchers from various backgrounds as well as experts and professionals working in the field of women’s sports, including football. The aim is to change the focus and emphasise what works and what can be implemented in the long term.

    Learning from Territories / Teaching Territories

    The 6th CIST (International College of Territorial Sciences) will focus on two questions: how to teach about territories and how to learn from territories. The objective of the following sessions is to highlight, on the one hand, the specific features of the teaching methods used in territorial sciences in the various disciplines involved, specifically by examining how they vary from one discipline to another and between countries; and on the other, to demonstrate how research in the territorial sciences develops specific methodologies for investigating places and individuals depending on whether the times being studied are periods of calm or of crisis; and on whether the territories in question are unremarkable in their ordinariness or exceptional in some way.

    Soundtracks of Our Lives

    Music-Making and Musicians in Cinema of the MENA Region

    Interactions between film and music in the MENA region are relatively understudied, partly because music often takes a subsidiary role in film analysis, while music specialists seldom turn their attention to film. Nevertheless, a growing body of work exists on music as a form of cultural resistance at times of political upheaval, such as during the Arab uprisings and protests in Iran when voices of past musical icons have reverberated with the revolutionary mood and musicians have become symbols against political oppression.

    Traveling manuscripts. Maritime transport and the circulation of manuscripts

    Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean, 16th-18th centuries

    According to the countless travelers who reported having seen their papers sunk into the abyss, the transport of manuscripts by sea was not an easy undertaking in early modern times. Still, since the emergence of the great European navies in the 17th century, considerable masses of documents of all kinds have filled European repositories and libraries from faraway places. Some are produced within an institutional framework linked to the maritime activity itself (newspapers, correspondence, maps...), others come from the initiative of actors who seek to extract information, knowledge or prestige from the manuscripts. It is also a question of apprehending, in a new light, documentary corpuses that are often reduced to their content, whereas they are often the result of a complex transaction between travelers, local intermediaries, patrons and powerful collectors.

    Archéologie de la production céramique et des espaces artisanaux : regards croisés

    From the 8th millennium BCE onwards, pottery production developed in Southwestern Asia and became a significant trait of Neolithic societies. Ceramic material is widely adopted. It represented a revolution on several scales and quickly constituted an important part of production activities. Thus, the objective of this workshop is to propose a transdisciplinary meeting about the methodologies of studying pottery manufacture sites, through examples from various contexts from prehistoric times to the contemporary period, and with a special interest in alternative approaches.

    Language contact and bi/plurilingual acquisition: diversity of situations, diversity of processes?

    Le colloque « Contact des langues et acquisition bi/plurilingue : diversité des situations, diversité des processus ? » se donne comme objectif d’interroger les caractéristiques de l’acquisition bi/plurilingue dans des situations de contact des langues en interrogeant différents points de vue : socio-psycho-linguistique, (socio)cognitif et didactique. Chaque situation de contact de langues engendre une dynamique complexe d’acquisition des L2 où un ensemble de facteurs – externes et internes à l’apprenant – exerce une influence sur l’appropriation des langues. Les recherches en acquisition des L2 ont initialement modélisé les situations d’acquisition comme des situations d’apprentissage d’une L2 par des locuteurs d’une L1. L’essor des recherches sur les bilinguismes, les multilinguismes, les langues d’héritage, les influences translinguistiques et les phénomènes d’attrition invitent à complexifier ce modèle bipolaire et à s’interroger sur la nature des processus en jeu dans les situations variées d’apprentissage et de transmission des langues, leurs points communs et leurs différences.

    Teaching Semiotics, from School to University

    Revue de recherches en littératie médiatique multimodale, 17

    The volume 17 of Revue de recherches en littératie médiatique multimodale (R2LMM) proposes to question the way in which the teaching of semiotics is being renewed, from school to university, through the prism of such approaches that give a central place to the learners in semiosis. This issue wishes to draw up a state of the art in these “field semiotics” as they are deployed in school and university teaching contexts. It will question the theoretical stakes, explain the methodological handiworks in the face of the complexity of the field, and raise the ethical stakes that can be posed by the integration of singular subjectivity in educational and pedagogical context.

    Gender in Slave and Post-Emancipation Societies in Global Contexts

    « Esclavages et Post-Esclavages / Slaveries and Post-Slaveries » Journal

    The last two decades have witnessed an uptick in the production of scholarly literature concerning enslaved, emancipated, and free women in slave societies in the Atlantic World. More recently, scholars have also begun to examine femininity and masculinity, nonbinary gender expression, nonnormative sexualities, and the family as lenses through which to understand the making and maintaining of those societies. In this special issue of Esclavages & Post-Esclavages / Slaveries & Post-Slaveries, the editors seek to build on and extend this work by focusing on gender, as an analytical frame and category, in slave and post-emancipation societies beyond and/or in comparison with the Atlantic basin. We aim to understand the influence of Atlantic world scholarship on global slave studies, while also attending to contextual distinctions outside of the Atlantic context.

    La diversité culturelle camerounaise dans les médias : discours, formes et enjeux

    Cameroonian cultural diversity in the medias : discourses, forms and issues

    This book, in an interdisciplinary perspective, would like to question the different discourses and forms of expression of Cameroonian cultural diversity in/by the media: traditional media (radio, television, written press, etc.), artistic media (literature, cinema, music …), digital media and social media… Beyond these representations, it is also necessary to analyze the responsibility or appropriation of the plurality of the Cameroonian cultural substrate by these media, their roles in the construction of a national culture / identity or national unity.
