    AMAES – Études médiévales anglaises, numéro 100

    On the occasion of its anniversary issue, Études médiévales anglaises invites papers on the measuring of time, as well as on the marginal treatment of time in ritualized celebrations which punctuate daily life, sometimes subverting its usual hierarchies, as in the case of carnival and misrule. Papers can consider material representations of time and its measure, as well as the subtle representation of past, present and future in medieval literature.

    Conference reports - online journal "Quaderna"

    La revue Quaderna souhaite reposer des questions au croisement des disciplines et des aires culturelles en faisant appel à des contributions d’universitaires et d’artistes, d’écrivains, de musiciens… Parce que penser au point de rencontre des langues et des disciplines est plus que jamais fondamental, cette revue espère ainsi à la fois réaffirmer la pluridisciplinarité qui fonde les études universitaires et contribuer au débat scientifique en créant un dialogue entre aires culturelles. Dans le cadre de sa rubrique « Comptes rendus de colloques », il s'agit de recevoir des contributions dont les signataires seraient prinipalement des doctorant·es et de jeunes chercheuses et chercheurs, mais pas uniquement. Les comptes rendus de colloques et autres événements scientifiques pourront par conséquent porter sur des sujets variés, touchant à la fois plusieurs aires géographico-culturelles ainsi que des disciplines inhérentes aux sciences humaines avec une approche transdisciplinaire.

    Intimacies under Tension from, and In, the Arab-Muslim Worlds

    Since the advent of the affective turn, when the humanities and social sciences began to pay increased attention to the objectification of emotions, studies on the “intimate” have increased exponentially. As an analytical category, intimacy allows to question dominant and normative visions of the private and the public spheres, and to understand how they are reproduced, challenged, and/or transgressed. Intimacy can therefore be considered as a political process. By encouraging the exploration of new methods of field research, this issue of L’Année du Maghreb is also opening up to “alternative” forms of ethnographic restitution.

    Speaking and Writing

    Complementarity, Competition and Hybridization of the Spoken and the Written Word (16th and 17th century Europe)

    The workshop will explore the complex relations between the spoken and the written word in 16th and 17th century Europe. Both modes of expression have been studied in a new light during the last years. But research on the interactions between the spoken and the written word is still at the beginning. It is a promising domain, linked to important questions about Early Modern history and its sources. How did the transitions between orality and writing (in both ways) work out in different situations? When the two modes were in competition, how were choices made and justified? When and where did the spoken word duplicate, complete, moderate, contradict or undermine the written word? When there was complementarity between the modes of expression, what mutual influences can be observed, mainly (but not only) from a formal point of view?

    Ritual in the Middle Ages

    The term “ritual” covers a wide field of medieval activities referring to repeated and often formal behaviour that combine cognitive processes with physical actions. Whether carried out in privacy or in public, medieval rituals invariably had a social function; they were performed for and in interaction with audiences, whose presence may have been tangible or superhuman. The performative aspect involved a shared experience of visible, audible and, in all, sensory practices that gave form to the rituals. The colloquium gathers together specialists from various fields to discuss the theory and practice of rituals in medieval culture.

    Training, educating, instructing in France, in the British Isles and in America in the 17th and 18th centuries

    These 2022 post-graduate study days set out to explore the broad range of the pedagogical theories and educative practices that were developed throughout the 17th and 18th centuries in the British Isles and in America. The three suggested semantic lines – training, educating, instructing – should allow for a cross-referencing of approaches on how knowledge was passed on from one generation to the next, from a teacher to a pupil or from a parent to a child. Though distinguishable from one another, the three terms stem from a same basis which establishes the relation between the learner and the instructor, but also between the learner and the object of his or her apprenticeship.

    Conference, symposium - Prehistory and Antiquity

    The Aristotelian “Mirabilia”

    This International Conference is entirely devoted to the Mirabilia, a collection attributed to Aristotle since Antiquity, which has probably be composed in the intellectual environment of the Peripatos. Our aim is to provide new insights into this little-known work, which is still historically the first example of what has been called Paradoxography. More precisely, the discussions will deal with the structure of the collection and its epistemology, with its relation to contemporary knowledge – from History to Literary Criticism –, and with its connection with the research led by Aristotle and his pupil Theophrastus.

    Data & Environment: towards a sustainable future

    During the three-day conference, we will choose four topics linked with the applications we will receive. Selected applications will help the Ph.D. students get to know each other and debate the sustainable development goals (SDG) and the environmental transition. Therefore, the different axes will make it possible to question the use of data and their information / processing structure, in relation to the ethical aspects of environmental standards, and more particularly satellite data within the framework of the 17 SDGs. They will be led by experts and doctoral students, as well as include artistic performances and awareness workshops.

    Nouvelles histoires

    This series of lectures aims at exploring how the grand narratives of architectural history are challenged by current concerns raised by colonial and postcolonial studies, gender studies, and the environmental humanities. From the Enlightenment to the present, the speakers will examine discourses which have impacted the very form of architecture, analysing the racial considerations that underlie the theory of styles, or investigating the role French and German colonizations in Africa played in the emergence of modern architecture.
