  Protestant Revival Movements in the Francophone World (Africa, Asia, Caribbean, Pacific)

  Origins, Currents, Developments and Diversification from the Nineteenth Century to the Present

  This Congress, intends to broaden that research to include, in addition to Europe, Francophone Africa and Madagascar, Asia, the Caribbean and the Pacific. From the beginning of the nineteenth century, this geographical and linguistic area (like others) has been to the benefit of the deployment of revival movements through mission. These movements have generated new Christendoms and ecclesial communities, many of which have emancipated themselves from inherited/exported models. Awakenings have taken specific forms and diversified. Persons and groups within traditional cultures and religions have shaped new antitheses (rupture) and/or syntheses (continuity). These Réveil/Revival influenced forms and visions have enriched the world’s religious heritage. This conference will give attention to the origins, currents, development, and diversification of the Réveil/Revival movements/networks/traditions from the Nineteenth Century to the Present, focusing on the Francophone world.

  Music Across Borders

  Artists, Industries and Representations in and beyond Europe

  In recognition of the ease with which music crosses political, geographical and temporal borders, both by design and more informally, our conference scrutinizes the reasons for and consequences of this movement and exchange, in Europe or between Europe and other continents, without disregarding the struggles and tensions that sometimes emerge when music endeavours or threatens to go beyond those borders.

  Art’s Concern

  Towards New Alternative Thinking Spheres

  We believed that aesthetics is a way of cutting any crisscrossing between cultural roles and social discrimination ones. The problem today and post to the state of great confusion quite salient in self-shaking state, has become intense. We consequently must deliver art from aesthetics not as a discourse but as an identification system that aesthetics put it on art. The question is how to interpret “art concern” as one of the main crises? Art is losing its strongholds; it has become hard for art to preserve its place within cultural production.

  “The War Has Taken Place”

  « Chiasmi International » - Numéro 25

  Dans son article intitulé « La guerre a eu lieu », paru dans le premier numéro des Temps modernes au lendemain du second conflit mondial, Maurice Merleau-Ponty décrivait différents aspects caractérisant la vie d’avant-guerre en France face à la possibilité d’un conflit déclenché par l’expansionnisme allemand : insouciance, incrédulité, méfiance envers « la politique », individualisme. En outre, il y soulignait les différentes attitudes qui avaient mûri sous l’occupation nazie (impossibilité de « rester neutres », nouvelle idée – non plus individualiste – de la liberté, engagement), tout en identifiant leurs conséquences sur les temps à venir (conscience du poids de l’histoire, des institutions, « de nos rapports multiples avec autrui et avec le monde »). Merleau-Ponty nous léguait ainsi des réflexions précieuses que nous sommes sollicités à reprendre et réélaborer aujourd’hui à l’aune de la guerre en Ukraine déclenchée par l’invasion russe unanimement et légitimement condamnée.

  The fragment and its rhythms

  Writing practices, sites of thought, acts of resistance

  The 2023 edition of Post-Scriptum’s conference aims to explore the possibilities, limits and singularities of a fragmentation of discourse, be it narrative, poetical or critical. Through this conference’s various contributions, we would like to reflect on the following questions: what is produced by such a shattering of discourse? Does the fragmentary form create an opening, give motion to creativity? Offering a different epistemology, outside of the frame, can the fragment disturb an intellectual or creative landscape? Can it give the opportunity to retake speech, or give power to rewritings and counter-speeches?

  Brazil, an independent country ?

  Rethinking “dependency theory” 200 years after 1822

  On the occasion of the bicentennial of Brazil’s proclamation of independence (September 7,1822), this conference examines the paradigm of “dependency theory.” We will consider both how Brazilian intellectuals contributed to dependency theory and what their analyses offer for thinking about Brazil’s independence and place in the world today. The oeuvre of Brazilian dependentistas insisted on the impossibility of understanding the history of Brazil and Latin America without considering the complex dynamics between the national and the international, between domestic political and economic structures and the broader world system of which they were part. This conference, 200 years after Brazil’s formal independence, evaluates the promise and limitations of their analysis, at once historicizing dependency theory and using the authors associated with it to better understand the present.

  Spotlight on the mine

  When cinema and literature take hold of the subject

  As part of the exhibition organised around this theme, the Centre Historique Minier has launched a call for papers for an international conference Spotlight on the mine, when cinema and literature take hold of the subject. In the contemporary era, mining has formed the subject of numerous artistic performances, particularly in the fields of writing and literature (mine novel, testimony, poetry, comic strip …), on the one hand, as well as in the world of cinema and audiovisual arts (fiction, documentary, animated film …). These representations have served as a place of artistic innovation, as well as a medium for mass culture (which developed alongside the mining industry), to such an extent that veritable sub-genres (the mine novel, the mine film) have been created, each with their own archetypes.

  Learning from Territories / Teaching Territories

  The 6^th CIST (International College of Territorial Sciences) will focus on two questions: how to teach about territories and how to learn from territories. The objective of the following sessions is to highlight, on the one hand, the specific features of the teaching methods used in territorial sciences in the various disciplines involved, specifically by examining how they vary from one discipline to another and between countries; and on the other, to demonstrate how research in the territorial sciences develops specific methodologies for investigating places and individuals depending on whether the times being studied are periods of calm or of crisis; and on whether the territories in question are unremarkable in their ordinariness or exceptional in some way.

  Music-Making and Musicians in Cinema of the MENA Region

  Interactions between film and music in the MENA region are relatively understudied, partly because music often takes a subsidiary role in film analysis, while music specialists seldom turn their attention to film. Nevertheless, a growing body of work exists on music as a form of cultural resistance at times of political upheaval, such as during the Arab uprisings and protests in Iran when voices of past musical icons have reverberated with the revolutionary mood and musicians have become symbols against political oppression.
