Marc Bloch in Brazil. History and Social Sciences

The conference proposes a critical reflection on the work and legacy of Marc Bloch (1886–1944), a central figure in historical studies as a social science. His path as a medievalist, co-founder of the Annales, and committed intellectual reveals an interdisciplinary and transnational approach that remains highly relevant today. The event aims to explore the reception of his ideas and their impact on the human and social sciences, bringing together history, theory, and political engagement.

The Island and the Archipelagic Dimension

1st Archipelagic Studies Symposium

The 1st Archipelagic Studies Symposium ‘The Island and the Archipelagic Dimension’ aims to reflect on issues of insularity and archipelagos in the conception of today's world, marked by environmental crises, new trends in human development and reinterpretations of place and its dynamics. Thinking about islands and archipelagos, in all their trans- and inter-material dimensions, equivalences and disparities, influences the conception not only of these discontinued worlds from their continental matrix (in some cases), but also of territories which are assumed to be outside the continent, with ontic possibilities of a truly archipelagic context.

Conference, symposium - Representation

Interspecies Interactions in the Visual Arts (1550-1914). Collaborations, Experimentations, Oppositions

This symposium proposes to study how artists have not only observed animals and, in some cases, lived alongside them, but have also sometimes attributed agency to them. The idea of an active relationship between the artist and the animal raises fundamental questions about the role of animals in artistic production. Are they merely objects of study, partners in creation, or autonomous agents in a larger process? How does the making of artworks define or blur boundaries between humans and other-than-humans?

Photography from the Struggles for Independence

Practices, circulations and aesthetics

The aim of this colloquium is to highlight the histories of photography generated during the processes of decolonization, while rethinking methodological and aesthetic approaches to the medium that are still too Western-centric. What has happened to the production and circulation of photographers and their images since the independence struggles? How did new iconographies, new aesthetics and, with them, new networks of visual exchange develop, complicating the one-sided visibilities and photographic circulations from the “South” to the “North” established during the colonial periods?

Shaping the Past. Rappresentazione, uso e manipolazione della memoria nel mondo antico

Seminario « Semi di Sapienza »

Ce séminaire affronte le thème - complexe et débattu - de la réception et de l'utilisation de la mémoire dans le monde gréco-romain et dans les sociétés du Proche et Moyen Orient antique et tardo-antique.

Le concept de "mémoire", déterminé en premier lieu dans les travaux de Maurice Halbwachs et, plus particulièrement en histoire ancienne, par Jan et Aleida Assman, est un instrument utile d'analyse. Le processus du souvenir, s'attachant habituellement à une dynamique neurologique strictement individuelle, peut être déterminé socialement. En effet, dans les communautés anciennes, la mémoire permet de s'identifier, de communiquer et de créer des normes. Par conséquent, la relation entre mémoire et passé est centrale pour définir les conditions des dynamiques identitaires des groupes sociaux. Ainsi, elle constitue un silon de recherche pertinent pour la recherche sur les communautés du monde ancien.

Feminist Utopias at Work

Reorganise, Redefine, Abolish

Although feminist utopias have been the object of an important body of work especially in the literary field, the specific paradigm of labour within these experiments and imaginaries has received only limited attention. The purpose of this conference is to explore to what extent and in what ways labour (both as a site of oppression and emancipation) serves as a paradigm in feminist utopia-building. We will use the concept of utopia both as a reflexive tool for critique and as a heuristic tool for transformation.

Penser/panser le désastre

Subjectivités et liens communautaires dans les sociétés et les créations centraméricaines et caribéennes

Alors que géologues, stratigraphes, chimistes et climatologues débattent encore aujourd’hui de la pertinence scientifique du concept d’anthropocène, et tandis que l’action communautaire et la littérature imaginent et testent déjà des mondes possibles pour vivre en harmonie avec la planète et les êtres vivants avec qui nous la partageons, la menace d’un désastre imminent semble être plus présente que jamais parmi le grand public. La fin du monde serait-elle pour demain ? Ce colloque propose de réfléchir à la façon dont les désastres (catastrophes naturelles, pandémies, guerres civiles, dictatures, etc.) affectent la construction des subjectivités individuelles et les liens communautaires.

La Toison d’or, trophée pour des héros ambigus de l’Antiquité au Moyen Âge

Si la quête argonautique et son dénouement tragique sont bien étudiés dans leur versant gréco-latin, leur devenir au Moyen Âge fait l’objet d’analyses moins nombreuses. Dans l’ensemble du corpus, l’imaginaire de la Toison d’or et les récits encadrant la quête argonautique restent aussi moins explorés. Phrixos, voué au sacrifice par son père Athamas, échappe à la mort grâce au bélier à la Toison d’or : l’animal mène le jeune homme en Colchide et prend symboliquement sa place sur l’autel. La Toison, dépouille sacrificielle, lui garantit pouvoir et fécondité. Une génération plus tard, Jason, parent de Phrixos, revendique ce trophée pour établir à son tour son royaume et sa lignée. Son mariage avec Médée assure temporairement sa victoire, mais la déloyauté du héros lui en ôte les fruits. Cette rencontre invite à replacer les deux héros dans leurs traditions parallèles et dans leur lien à ce trophée ambigu.

Call for papers - Thought

Events, ruptures, durations

"Chiasmi International" journal n°27

This dossier will explore the various fields of Merleau-Ponty's thought in which his notions of event, rupture and duration are at work or can become fertile and operative. This means exploring not only Merleau-Ponty's work, but also the thought of other authors in the phenomenological tradition or the structuralist and post-structuralist currents. Finally, it means looking at contemporary philosophy and theoretical thinking, to understand how various traditions of thought in the humanities and social sciences are responding today to the challenges posed by events (from the events of 11 September 2001 to pandemics and global ecological issues) and how they thematise notions of duration and rupture in public and private life.
