Ce colloque propose d’explorer, dans une perspective diachronique, la manière dont l’épistolaire ne reflète pas simplement le politique mais contribue à le produire. Il réunira des spécialistes et des jeunes chercheurs et chercheuses afin de mettre en lumière la place de la lettre comme genre discursif majeur dans l’histoire des idées et des luttes politiques.

Phraseological Universals in Natural Languages
Revue « Neophilologica », n° 38
The study of linguistic universals, closely tied to linguistic typology, seeks to identify features shared across natural languages despite their diversity. These universals — traditionally classified as phono-logical, grammatical, semantic, and symbolic — aim to formalize the invariants of human language, often in connection with cognition and perception. While linguistic typol-ogy focuses on differences between languages, the study of universals defines their con-straints, delineating the boundaries of possible variation.

La fabrique de l’histoire dans les arts à Venise : récits, propagande et contre-récits
XXIXe séminaire d’histoire de l’art vénitien
Qui écrit, dans les arts, l’histoire, selon quelles sélections et omissions, pour qui et à quelle fin ? Comment la production artistique dans l’espace public a-t-elle célébré les grands hommes et les femmes illustres, les génies artistiques, ou bien parfois effacé volontairement les mémoires ? Comment enfin s’élaborent dans les arts les contre-récits à Venise ?

Work, Health, and Environment between Knowledge and Power (19th–21st Centuries)
This conference seeks to be a multidisciplinary forum (history, sociology, geography, medicine, anthropology, etc.) devoted to analysing the knowledge, practices, and repertoires of action arising from these mobilisations. It welcomes diverse historical and geographical contexts, especially beyond countries of early industrialisation, to document and map past and present struggles against harmfulness.

Les phénomènes d’autodéfense et plus largement les pratiques de sécurité privée ont fait l’objet d’un regain d’intérêt au sein des sciences sociales durant ces dernières décennies. Cette journée d’étude propose un dialogue entre les historiographies française et italienne, qui ont toutes deux longtemps éclipsé l’importance des formes privées de sécurité au sein de pays réputés pour leur modèle étatique centralisé par rapport à la littérature anglophone, plus familière de l’histoire de l’autodéfense.

Democracy at University: Voicing Choices
In France, as abroad, questions of democracy span multiple social fields. The University appears as a privileged place for observation and reflection. As a space for academic and civic education, for the transmission of knowledge and collective experimentation, it also constitutes a laboratory for democratic practices.

Scandal in Italian Society (1350-1530): norms, transgressions, and representations
Cahiers d’études italiennes
This thematic issue of Cahiers d’études italiennes aims to examine both the polysemy and social functions of scandal in Italy in the late Middle Ages and early Renaissance (1350-1530), combining approaches from history, literature, art history, political philosophy, and law. Contributions will focus primarily on Italian society, but contributions addressing cases of scandal related to Italy or Italian personalities are also welcome.

Rereading, (re)emergence, appropriation: What is to be done with the art of the past?
The writings of art historians, like the works of art themselves, are a place of emergence, return, and incessant reinterpretation. This dialogue between periods at the heart of both artistic creation and the narrative of our discipline will be the subject of the 2026 edition of the Ecole de Printemps. Proposals for papers could present case studies, where a work or body of work quotes, repeats, adopts, or readapts earlier images, objects, or monuments. They might analyse historiographical reinterpretations by considering them as transhistorical interventions and reappropriations – whether textual, visual or museum-based.

Auteur hybride et poétiques de l’algorithme
Écritures et créativité dans l’Italie contemporaine
L’évolution des technologies numériques et de l’intelligence artificielle générative transforme profondément l’écosystème culturel italien, où les pratiques artistiques et littéraires intègrent de plus en plus des logiques transmédiales, algorithmiques et réticulaires. Cette convergence entre humain, machine et plateformes fait émerger de nouvelles figures comme « l’auteur hybride » et le « lecteur hybride », remettant en question la créativité, l’intentionnalité et la responsabilité dans l’acte artistique. La technologie n’est plus seulement un support, mais un véritable agent qui modifie des catégories fondamentales telles que auteur, œuvre et lecture, ouvrant ainsi des scénarios inédits pour la critique et la production contemporaines.

Pia Pera: An Archipelago of Writings
Ten years after the death of the writer Pia Pera (1956–2016), the aim of this full-day workshop is to explore her entire body of work in depth for the first time. Adopting a multidisciplinary approach, we aim to restore the diversity of her writing and highlight its place in the Italian literary landscape. Her work anticipated issues that we consider essential today, and she was a complex, protean and unique figure.

Au cours de l’histoire, la figure de saint François d’Assise a connu en France des fortunes diverses. Au XIIIᵉ siècle, lors de la querelle entre réguliers et séculiers, les frères mineurs surent s’imposer dans les universités et occupèrent d’importantes chaires de théologie à la Faculté de Paris. Si saint François est, en Italie, à l’origine d’une nouvelle langue poétique et d’un nouveau langage figuratif, quel est son héritage linguistique et poétique, mais aussi spirituel et philosophique, en France ?

“Colonial Communities” in the Mediterranean between Italian Unification and the Occupation of Libya
The trilingual conference “Colonial Communities” in the Mediterranean between Italian Unification and the Occupation of Libya seeks to address a still relatively unexplored topic: the study of Italian communities abroad, with particular attention to the Mediterranean world in the period between national unification (1861) and the occupation of Libya (1911). At the core of this reflection lies the close, and not merely chronological, relationship between the migratory dynamics that characterized the early decades of unified Italy and the rise of colonial expansionism. The seminar therefore aims to investigate this connection through the specific lens offered by the Italian presence in North Africa and in the Ottoman Empire before the occupation of Libya.

Plurilingualism and the circulation of knowledge, imaginations, and skills
What are the dynamics and vulnerabilities?
In L’économie du XXe siècle (The Economy of the 20th Century), François Perroux stated that “we do not have a comprehensive, coherent and usable theory of what I propose to call the ’domination effect’” Why talk about relations of domination when we are dealing with the circulation of knowledge, imaginaries, and skills in relation to linguistic diversity? When there is circulation, movement, transfer, there are differences in level, which means that knowledge, imaginations and skills do not emerge everywhere at the same time and in the same way, giving rise to differences, imbalances and potential conflicts.

La journée d'étude « Gastronomie, langage et marketing : discours de marque et communication sociale dans l’agroalimentaire » vise à explorer les interactions entre la linguistique, le marketing et la communication sociale pour analyser comment le discours gastronomique façonne les identités, influence les comportements des consommateurs et se laisse façonner par ces derniers. Le colloque part du principe que les pratiques culinaires sont devenues une forme de communication complexe, porteuse de significations culturelles, économiques et identitaires.

Call for papers - Representation
This international conference aims to explore the central role of culture and art in the reconstruction and regeneration of the social fabric, through a reinterpretation of trauma as a driver of creation and preservation of cultural memory and as a form of resistance to the politics of erasure. We encourage papers dealing with the interconnections between trauma, memory and resistance in multiple artistic languages to highlight the role of art in reinterpreting trauma, making it a source of memory and thus a basis for social change. The focus will be on the artistic production, especially during the 21st century, created by Palestinian artists about Palestine, including those in the diaspora.
