    Tax resistance in the Roman world

    L’impôt est aussi vieux que les sociétés et la résistance à l’impôt, aussi vieux que lui. Dans un empire comme celui de Rome, des centaines de peuples contribuent au financement de l’Etat ; des centaines de peuples riches de leur propre histoire, de leur propre culture, de leur propre manière de se représenter la fiscalité. Dans ce colloque, des spécialistes venus du monde entier examineront les causes, les temporalités, les modalités et les conséquences des diverses formes de refus de l’impôt romain, qu’il provienne des citoyens ou des provinciaux, dans un contexte économique, social, culturel, politique ou religieux. Les présentations permettront de questionner les rapports de consentement et de contrainte entre le pouvoir central et les divers sujets de Rome et de comprendre ce qui a permis l’exceptionnelle stabilité d’un empire si durable.

    From Negotiation to Integration: Hegemony in Hellenistic Times

    Ce colloque se propose d'étudier la notion d'hégémonie à l'époque hellénistique, au prisme de quatre grands axes : sa définition concrète, ses mécanismes de mise en fonctionnement, ses applications concrètes, et ses limites. L'objectif de ce colloque est de se questionner sur l'applicabilité de comportements décrits comme ceux d'une puissance hégémonique, dans le monde issu de la désintégration du royaume d'Alexandre.

    Gouvernance, économie et société dans l’Antiquité : nouvelles perspectives de recherche

    This year, as part of the 2025 edition of the Synoikismos Interuniversity Doctoral Seminar, the annual theme days are intended as a space for dialogue open to all researchers working on Antiquity, regardless of discipline or perspective. The proposed themes - governance, economy and society - do not constitute closed axes. They are intended to provide a sufficiently broad framework for a wide range of research, whether political, social, economic, cultural or methodological.

    Kingship in Sparta from Menelaus to Nabis

    Foundations, practices and representations

    Spartan dual kingship is one of the most astonishing aspects of Sparta's constitution: despite the vicissitudes of history, it was perpetuated with a certain constancy in a particular political system from its mythical origins to its evolution into a monarchy and disappearance in the Hellenistic period. This preservation has been achieved at the cost of constantly reinventing the representation of kings and their institutional function.

    Political space in ancient times: representation, description, transformation

    This conference aims to develop a reflection on the links between space and politics in ancient times, using an interdisciplinary approach. While archaeologists and historians have been interested in the ways in which space can be a political object, what is missing is a general reflection that would show the contribution of a spatial approach to politics in Classics. To renew our thinking on political space, we will compare the practices of archaeology, whose field of study is resolutely linked to space, and history, whose approach is often more political, with those of literature and philology, which have also seized on space as a methodological tool.

    On Asceticism: Crossing Traditions, New Perspectives

    L’idée du colloque est de réunir des spécialistes issus de divers horizons disciplinaires, culturels et de genres, pour discuter de l’ascétisme. Au lieu de se concentrer sur l’évolution linéaire de certaines traditions ascétiques dans la philosophie occidentale, l’objectif est de souligner la multiplicité et la mutabilité de l’ascétisme au sein et au-delà des traditions occidentales. Outre les débats philosophiques et religieux de longue date sur l’ascétisme, nous accueillerons également des articles qui traitent de l’ascétisme dans un contexte contemporain, tel que la création et la critique artistiques, la santé et le bien-être, ou l’engagement dans les problèmes urgents de l’environnement.

    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.

    Denunciation or dissimulation? Medical error in the Antiquity and Middle Ages

    Greece, Rome, Egypt and the Near East

    Médiator, Dépakine, Thalidomide, sang contaminé, prothèses mammaires… les scandales sanitaires de ces cinquante dernières années ont régulièrement concentré l’attention générale sur le problème du risque médical. Les nombreuses questions qu’ils ont soulevées, abondamment relayées par les médias, nous montrent à quel point la question de l’erreur médicale est cruciale et complexe. Mais avant de devenir scandale, l’erreur médicale est aussi un risque inhérent à la pratique de la médecine, et cela depuis qu’elle existe. Une erreur dans le diagnostic, dans le pronostic ou dans la thérapeutique, aussi minime soit-elle, peut avoir des répercussions désastreuses pour le médecin et le malade si elle n’est pas repérée et corrigée. Loin de la médiatisation que peuvent connaître les scandales sanitaires d’aujourd’hui, quel est donc le statut de l’erreur médicale dans les médecines anciennes et quels sont ses enjeux ?
