An Approach to Paleography from the Perspective of Philology: Agreements and Disagreements, Abbreviations and Marginalia

IV Open Theoretical-Practical Conference on the Dissemination of Knowledge about Paleography and the History of Writing

This conference highlights the importance of combining history and philology in an interdisciplinary manner as the most comprehensive means of correctly studying the historical evolution of writing in the Middle Ages on the Iberian Peninsula. It will focus on the study of abbreviations and marginal notes in Hebrew. There will be theoretical sessions in the morning and a practical session in the afternoon, with calamus pens, quills and handmade ink, working about "experimental paleography".

Interculturality, Diversity and Inclusion

Contemporary Issues in Societies and Businesses in the Americas

L’objectif de cette rencontre est d’analyser l’interculturalité, la diversité et l’nclusion tant dans les sociétés que dans les entreprises de différents pays du continent américain. Il s’agit d’une activité qui comprendra des communications sur des pays tels que les États-Unis, Haïti, la Jamaïque, le Mexique, le Costa Rica, l’Équateur et l’Argentine. Outre le questionnement sur ces nouvelles et possibles instances inclusives, les différences culturelles, sociales et de genre ainsi que les transformations de la société dans de nombreux pays, ont conduit à une réflexion et à des propositions sur la possibilité de construire de nouvelles citoyennetés inclusives et diverses.

Tele-Phonies: Listening at a Distance in the Arts and Auditory Cultures

Drawing from the hypothesis of an entanglement between auditory cultures, regimes of perception, and techniques of listening, the study day Tele-Phonies proposes to analyze the arts and cultures of listening through the plural notion of distance. The aim is to consider not only telephone and radio networks, but also a broader set of mediated practices of listening at a distance—within or on the margins of these networks—in order to grasp their impact on the sonic arts and auditory cultures.

Writings from the private archives of dignitaries exiled in Réunion

This workshop explores the intimate effects of the educational experience of dignitaries exiled to Reunion Island at the dawn of the 20th century. Experimenting seclusion, their exile was also a time of publicizing their words, with the publication of memoirs and press articles. The aim is to see how these prison worlds, which were on the increase during the colonial period, helped shape the bodies and souls of the inmates. Focusing on the writings of exiled dignitaries, this workshop seeks to probe the intimate changes that these new scholastic knowledges operate in terms of sociability, relationship to self and others, in a context of resistance to French occupation.

Influence and Propaganda

New Historiographical Perspectives

Post-truth, fake news, infodemic, virality, soft power, hybrid warfare, political technology, influencer... New expressions intermingle with old ones – suggestion, propaganda, disinformation, manipulation, censorship – to describe the alarming evolution of various manipulative practices. These new terms and warnings often obscure the continuity of older practices and their shared origins. By adopting an integrative and multidisciplinary approach, this conference brings together researchers studying practices of influence across different times and places, with a shared commitment to historicising these phenomena.

Calibration / Étalonnage : des mots aux mondes

Anthropologie linguistique, concepts du terrain, concepts du champ

Linguistic anthropology originated via a focus on language use. Now language has two key features: It is only ever encountered in use, that is, processually. And it is forever the medium of its own explication, that is, it is reflexive. To grapple with language, one accordingly needs concepts that possess these features. As is well known, linguistic anthropology arrived at such concepts through its grounding in Peircean semiotics. Another basis for the sub-discipline’s concepts has been the Boasian comparativist tradition of language study. Continuing its exploration of the latter, this conference proposes a focus on the concept of calibration, first taken up by Benjamin Lee Whorf.

The long history of the masculinisation of womenswear

Journée d’étude Tailoring Identities

Cette journée d’étude a pour objectif de revenir sur la transformation du vestiaire féminin du XV^e au XX^e siècle lorsqu’il emprunte à différents ressorts de mode masculine, ainsi que sur les pratiques de cross-dressing. Elle entend analyser comment l’art des tailleurs a accompagné la définition progressive d’une silhouette s’éloignant des apparences de la féminité normative, et examiner comment les emprunts au vestiaire masculin ont permis à des personnes en dissidence avec les normes de genre d’exprimer indépendance, résistance ou appartenance – de manière visible ou (quasiment) invisible. En se penchant sur l’intersection entre mode et identité(s), elle espère la variété des manières par lesquelles le vêtement a permis les expressions individuelles, mais aussi combien il a été, au-delà d’elles, un moyen de résistance et de négociation des normes sociales.

Étudier les polices au Moyen-Orient

Penser les formes d’États du VIIIe siècle à nos jours

Le Moyen-Orient est longtemps resté le parent pauvre des travaux de sciences sociales consacrés à la police. Cette marginalisation n’est pas propre au monde arabe. La France a elle-même investi tardivement ce champ de recherche, privilégiant l’analyse de ceux qui subissent la répression plutôt que ses commanditaires et exécutants. Pour saisir les dynamiques de construction de l’ordre public et les relations États-société dans le Proche Orient, nous proposons de décentrer le regard en partant de l’appareil répressif et en privilégiant une perspective diachronique.

Appropriating international spaces and professions

European women and feminists in the 20th century

The workshop focuses on the intersections between the history of international relations, European studies and women's and gender history. Since the early 21^st century, historiography on international relations and European integration has undergone profound transformations, enabling the integration of a gender perspective. However, writing a history of European and international relations from a female perspective and integrating a gender perspective into these scientific fields remains a challenge. Therefore, the aim of this workshop is to take stock of approaches at the crossroads of the study of international relations, European integration, gender and feminism. It will provide a forum for debate on recent empirical work and work in progress.

Réactualisation des matériaux et savoir-faire préindustriels

Perspectives historiques

Faced with today's environmental and climatic challenges, architectural production needs to embrace a shift towards frugality, in particular through the use of bio- and geo-sourced materials. In this respect, pre-industrial knowledge and know-how can be particularly inspiring. The aim of this study day is to understand how to design, build and rehabilitate using ancient techniques. The aim is to examine gestures and know-how in relation to so-called traditional building materials. This one-day event will call on researchers to shed scientific light on these essential questions, so as to avoid falling into the irenic trap of a return to our roots, without misrepresenting them or greenwashing them. Adopting a historical perspective could be a way of avoiding this pitfall, contextualizing it and initiating a debate with the practitioners and future practitioners of tomorrow's architecture. This study day is aimed at students, teachers, researchers and anyone interested in learning more about these subjects. The aim is to develop an accurate awareness of materials and know-how.

Complotisme et théories du complot, nouveaux objets, nouveaux enjeux

Conspiracism and conspiracy theories, new objects, new issues

While conspiracism and conspiracy theories — along with the risks they entail — have become widespread in everyday discourse, they have only recently emerged as subjects of philosophical inquiry. What can philosophy bring to bear on these new objects of inquiry?How can we precisely define what is meant by conspiracism and conspiracy theory?How should we assess, justify, or question the critiques commonly leveled against them?What tools can philosophy offer in addressing conspiratorial discourse? This study day aims to engage with these questions, and is proud to welcome — for the first time in a French-speaking context — several authors who have pioneered the philosophical examination of these issues.
