The art press today, towards a reconfiguration of a media genre ?

La presse culturelle actuelle recouvre des formats extrêmement divers : elle peut être une revue de critique d’art ou d’histoire de l’art, une revue généraliste ou plus pointue, un guide culturel ou un magazine qui traite de l’actualité par le prisme de l’art ou encore une revue consacrée à un art en particulier. Tout ceci sans compter l’incroyable variété de la presse culturelle en ligne, rassemblant des blogs amateurs, des podcasts mais aussi des revues numériques. Ce colloque international a pour ambition d’embrasser cette diversité et entend mettre en évidence la manière dont les médias – traditionnels et en ligne – portent un regard sur les arts plastiques, les arts vivants, l’architecture, le design graphique, le cinéma, la littérature, la musique ou encore le patrimoine.

Crises et prises de la parole

Revue « Mutations en Méditerranée »

For this first issue, we propose to take the different disciplinary languages of our editorial board as a starting point and to consider speech as an object of study. We propose to consider “speech” in a broad manner, thus understanding it as designating any thought expressed, and paying particular attention to who the speakers are, which mediums they employ and what their motives may be. Firstly, we consider speaking out in times of crisis, in the hopes of being heard. But does all speech have the same influence or impact? Which words are heard and heeded? We submit various lines of thought ranging from the Arab uprisings, whose tenth anniversary we are celebrating, to the place speech occupies in social movements. Our contemplation of this topic ranges from the hierarchy of languages to the hierarchies of discourse, to the role of scientific discussion in society and within the restitution of an interviewees or respondents spoken word within the framework of research investigation in the humanities.

Perspective : actualité en histoire de l’art, n° 2023-2

The journal Perspective : actualité en histoire de l'art will explore, in its 2022 – 2 issue, the history and historiography of Fashion(s). Two complementary definitions of fashion emerge and these underlie the two approaches that this issue of Perspective seeks to develop: the first aims to determine formal changes in dress and variations in the laws of appearances, while the second conceives of a single, cyclical renewal of taste that inspires customs and thus goes far beyond items of clothing and their accessories.

Sources. Materials and fieldwork in African Studies

Permanent call for special issues

Sources grew out of the observation that academic journals tend to encourage theoretical and epistemological advances at the expense of the field materials under analysis. This journal’s mission is twofold: first, to resituate at the core of the articles the materials upon which researchers produce their reflections, while providing direct access to these materials; and second, to present analyses focusing on the contexts surrounding the production of these materials and their uses. This return to sources deriving from field work takes place in conjunction with topical thematics in African and Africana studies in the social sciences and humanities and promotes interdisciplinary dialogue. Sources is thus adopting a particularly unusual mission, one not currently existing in the academic field on Africa: to make available texts, images, sounds, interviews, field notes, and documents in the broadest sense, which become data that form the basis for researchers’ theoretical developments, and which thus constitute field research archives.

Maritime spaces, temporalities and global changes

Fourth congress of Scientific interest Group of History and Sciences of the Sea

Born in the 1970s, the concept of global change refers to the study of short-, medium- and long-term interactions between the climate, the biosphere, the ocean, the land surface and, of course, human activities. As a systemic conceptual framework, global change invites us to consider the Earth as a whole, so that it allows for the study of all scales, authorizes the study of sub-systems and does not consider human activities as a forcing external to the system but as an agent in its own right. Within the framework of its 4th congress, the SIG-CNRS of History & Sciences of the Sea proposes to study the concept of global change applied to the different scales of maritime spaces as well as to short, medium and long term interaction.

Persistence of Travelling Cinema Throughout the Twentieth Century

This workshop will explore travelling cinema practises on a global scale in their historical, material and cultural diversity and will look at the ways in which they interfere with the communal identities of audiences. How communities – understood as porous, linguistic, ethnic, religious groups, crossed by various social and cultural dynamics – structured travelling cinema audiences and, conversely, how travelling cinema screening venues created, reinforced or perturbed community identities? The time span adopted goes from the 1920s to the end of the 20^th century, up to the moment when television got rooted in the daily spectatorial practices and the VCR player developed (a point in time that differs according to local media histories).

The Roving Comic Book: Exchanges, Transfers, Circulation

« Mémoires du livre / “Studies in Book Culture” » - volume 14, Number 1, Fall 2022

After their emergence in the nineteenth century, comic books quickly became an important vehicle for transnational exchanges. This issue of Mémoires du livre / Studies in Book Culture proposes a multi-disciplinary study of the cross-cultural transfer and circulation of comics. The notion of “transfer” is understood here in a broad sense, as a process in which objects, ideas and practices are transferred across two or several cultures.

Mundo hispánico-mundo global: memoria y futuro

The encounter of Spain with America is an event of transcendental importance and has generated an original cultural space extended over half a billion people over the world. The conference, lectures, and activities will cover a wide range of topics and disciplines (arts, history, political sciences, philosophy...) to celebrate the richness and the global trajectory of the Hispanic cultures. The First International Hispano-American Congress aims to be an academic and cultural event, in a lively and attractive format, with a significant media projection; an opportunity to reflect on the unity made of the polyphony of voices from Hispanism around the world.

Learning Spaces: an urban and territorial issue

Les Cahiers de la recherche architecturale urbaine et paysagères

This thematic dossier of Cahiers de la recherche architecturale urbaine et paysagères aims to collect contributions that make it possible to identify and better understand the places, policies and actors involved in production and transformation processes as well as in the uses of learning spaces. The projects and programs centered on learning spaces may address three areas for consideration, regarded in an integrated or separate way depending on the case. Proposed contributions may thus be positioned in relation to one or more of these elements.

Crise des réfugiés ukrainiens versus méditerranéens

Des politiques en crise ou des promesses dans la question migratoire ?

The war in Ukraine has provoked an unprecedented humanitarian surge. The various actors: governments, NGOs, associations, civil societies are organizing themselves to offer assistance to Ukrainian refugees. The European Union is applying a 2001 directive, which allows for the granting of temporary protection status in order to guarantee rapid access to rights: right of residence, access to work, to healthcare, to housing, education... to a stay in decent and safe conditions. These exceptional conditions granted to refugees contrast with the conditions of Mediterranean refugees. It is in this context that the United Nations human rights chief, Michelle Bachelet, welcomes this humanitarian solidarity but also recalls that other migrants and refugees are often faced with refoulement and criminalization at the EU's borders and beyond.

Labor and its Measurements in Imperial Context and Legacies

Plusieurs communications et une table ronde seront consacrées aux différentes formes et à la mesure du travail à l’échelle des empires, retenant pour l’essentiel les empires coloniaux, mais sans exclure d’autres configurations. Ce colloque réunira des chercheurs plus ou moins avancés dans la recherche, issus de différents continents, pour s’interroger collectivement à la fois sur les différentes façons d’évaluer, de rémunérer et de comptabiliser l’activité productive, et sur les manières de mobiliser, compter, encadrer et classer les travailleurs. Les héritages des situations coloniales et de domination seront pris en compte pour aborder le sujet dans la longue période, des XVIII^e au XXI^e siècle.

Perspectives on Morphosyntactic and Pragmatic Variation in Francophone Minority Communities

Appel à textes pour la publication d’un numéro thématique dans la revue bilingue Minorités linguistiques et société / Linguistic Minorities and Society, portant sur la variation linguistique, plus spécifiquement morphosyntaxique et pragmatique, dans l’espace francophone. Le numéro vise à présenter, dans une perspective pluridisciplinaire et interdisciplinaire, les résultats de recherches sur des éléments de la grammaire et du discours qui restent très peu explorés dans l’aire linguistique francophone, au Canada comme ailleurs. L’avancement des connaissances sur des aspects méconnus de la morphosyntaxe et de la pragmatique de variétés de français en périphérie (en marge du centre, communément admis — avec quelques raccourcis — comme étant Paris) permettra de nourrir la réflexion de personnes œuvrant en aménagement de corpus, en lexicographie et en enseignement, entre autres.

Covid-19 Pandemic: a Multidisciplinary Perspective on Adaptation to Climate Change

Special issue of “Climate”

Many forms of weather phenomena such as floods, large waves, prolonged droughts and extreme temperatures are having an impact on human life. During the Covid-19 pandemic, the actions we should take to adapt to these situations and reduce the influences caused by them are very critical. Based on the current situation, many countries around the world are trying to engage with strategies, actions and reflections to reduce impacts on the urban environment and to identify the best actions to improve urban resilience and civilian well-being. However, the situation is not the same in all countries, forcing some to step up their interventions and learn from the actions taken by others.
