    Les mazarinades et l’international

    Les 6 000 libelles parus sous la Fronde ont fait l’objet au cours de ces dernières années de nouvelles approches qui démontrent que les mazarinades dépassent de loin le cadre des affrontements politiques des années 1648-1653 en France ; elles nous conduisent aussi vers d’autres espaces historiques ou politiques, mobilisent des types de discours, des modes langagiers, des genres littéraires, des formes poétiques ou théâtrales, des topiques culturelles contemporaines, dans un processus à double sens. Après Paris (Nouvelles approches, 2015), Tokyo (Exploration, 2016) et Rouen (Territoires, 2022), le prochain colloque sur les mazarinades se penchera sur la question de « l’international » dans ce vaste corpus. Le projet de ce colloque se veut pluridisciplinaire afin de croiser les approches (historiques, littéraires, linguistiques, politiques, juridiques, sociologiques...) et international.

    War Losses and Naval Warfare (18th to 21st century)

    Anticipating Naval Losses: Innovations & Prospects

    « Si tu veux faire la guerre sur mer, prépare-toi aux pertes au combat », serait-on tenté d’écrire. Le temps nécessaire à la construction d’une unité comme celui requis pour former l’équipage chargé de l’armer implique d’anticiper la question des pertes sur mer. Quelles sont les ressources humaines, matérielles, intellectuelles et culturelles de l’anticipation ? Quels sont les acteurs chargés d’anticiper ces pertes et quelle est leur expérience des pertes vécues et/ou représentées ? Quelles sont les données utilisées pour anticiper les pertes ? Comment le « retex » (retour d’expérience) est-il pris en compte dans l’anticipation du combat et des pertes ? La question de l’anticipation implique également de réfléchir aux structures mobilisées pour recueillir le renseignement, échanger avec ses alliés et espionner ses adversaires de manière à comprendre la circulation des informations.

    Subsaharan Africa and Current Ecological Challenges

    Transdisciplinary Perspectives

    In the face of the ecological crisis currently gripping the world, the consequences of which are spreading across the globe, Africa, once considered an ecological fallow land, has also embarked on the path of a development model requiring the abusive exploitation of nature. In this context of diminishing ecological habitus, the forthcoming collective book aims at exploring the pervasiveness of the environmental paradigm in the arts, letters, crafts, humanities, discourses (political, social, etc.) and media of sub-Saharan Africa. Such a transdisciplinary perspective is intended to highlight the complexity of the object of analysis, and the contributions will explore its impact on all scales of existence.

    Labor

    “Perspective journal”, no. 2025 – 1

    The journal Perspective : actualité en histoire de l'art will explore, in its 2025 – 1 issue, the relations between labor and art history, understood both as a scholarly discipline and the material under study. That which we collectively term “labor” is today the subject of rapid changes and fierce debates which, in an often caricatural way, pitches those for whom labor is a value in and of itself (work or else laze about) against those who question the value of labor: Which type of work is useful to society? Are the conditions acceptable where labor is active? Is labor a form of domination (?) Posing these questions from an art-historical point of view allows us to start from scratch. This volume suggests that we study the relationships between labor and art history.

    Being Absent: The Lives of Absentees

    “Journal Communications” (2025)

    This issue aims to bring together ethnographic explorations of the different ways a living or yet-to-be-born person becomes absent, socially transformed into a state of “not being someone”. Authors are also welcome to examine the concrete effects of passing from one condition to another, whether the product of violence and power relations or a life trajectory, on their personal and broader social and political environment. The idea is to propose a theoretical basis for reflection and discussion on the notions of the absent and the non-person, beyond binary and reductive oppositions (absent and present, non-person and person, visible and non-visible, living and non-living). We seek to gain an empirically based understanding of the multiple configurations that shape the experience of the condition of the absentee, partially reflected in the law, both as an individual and as a collective phenomenon.

    “Photographica” n° 10: Soon to be 200 Years old!

    The tenth issue of the journal Photographica aims to explore the question of photography's inventions and technical progress, as well as photography's origins and how these histories were written. The 200th anniversary of photography's invention will be celebrated in 2026-2027. This will not be a celebration of the inception of photography as a truly publicly available technology, which occurred more than a decade later, but of the "first" photograph - the earliest in any case - produced and preserved to date. There would be no point in attempting to examine the 200-year history of photography in this issue of Photographica - one issue of a journal would hardly be enough - instead, we would like to suggest two lines of inquiry for researchers on this occasion. The first is to challenge accounts about the origin and development of photography, and the second is to examine how photography has commemorated its anniversaries throughout history. This call will conclude with a third line of inquiry.

    Study days - Sociology

    Regards et réflexions sur les concepts de bifurcations et « doing transitions »

    The aim of this Franco-German study day is to bring together different international research traditions. The aim is to compare research angles, concepts, frameworks and methods relating to life-course transitions. The widespread approach to the concept of 'bifurcation' in French-language research offers many possibilities for convergence with the 'Doing transitions' approach developed in recent years by the 'Doing transitions Graduiertenkolleg' research group. This comparative exercise will be considered not only between two countries, but also between two concepts that become fertile methodological tools for the emergence of new lines of thought, allowing both possible exchanges between the two traditions to generate a common field, but also the contribution of new epistemological avenues to fuel the debate on each side of the Rhine.

    Une démocratie sur le fil. Les ressources humaines du processus électoral

    Dans le cadre du XVIIe congrès national de l'Association française de science politique, la section thématique 34 invite à questionner la « tuyauterie démocratique », ce que la sociologie historique et la science politique ont peu documenté jusqu'à présent. La section propose de déplacer la focale sur les agents qui sont mobilisés aux différentes étapes du processus électoral (services élections des collectivités, ministère de l’Intérieur, préfectures, tribunal administratif, assesseurs des bureaux de vote, Insee, entreprises d’acheminement postal des professions de foi etc.) et qui sont nécessaires à la tenue d’une élection ou d’un vote (organisation des bureaux de vote, ingénierie des machines à voter, des transmissions et publications des résultats, rédaction de rapports, conception et rédaction de la législation, destruction et/ou archivage du matériel…).

    When science fiction changes the world...

    12th Symposium Stella Incognita

    Since no one knows the future, no one can claim to be an expert on it. Nevertheless, as we all project ourselves into the future, a narrative is inevitably constructed and even a number of multiple ones, in which all possible questions are intertwined. This call for papers therefore draws on a wide range of disciplines to intuitively envisage probable, plausible or possible futures (Voros, 2006) or those being significant in terms of what we are provided with to consider and live vicariously through. While other literatures of the imaginary (Fantasy, Fantastique) are based on a leap out of reality, In this call, we'd like to take a look at our relationship to changes in the world, which is more akin to science fiction, even though there are several definitions of the “science fiction” genre.

    Provence at the Crossroads of Artistic Trajectories during the 17th century

    Production, Markets, Circulation

    Through its geographic location, Provence, taken here to be the region between Nice, Montpellier and the Comtat Venaissin, is an ideal location to reflect on the plurality of artistic movements. Open to the Mediterranean and boasting active maritime trade, it was also the last stop in France on the way to Italy, at a time when a visit to Rome was an essential part of any artist's training. The conference, which will be international and multidisciplinary, intends to examine the circulation of artists and works in Provence during the 17th century.
