    “Teaching the Manner of Performing all Steps…” The Technical Dance Treatises (1700-1750)

    International conference Celebrating the 300th anniversary of the publication of “Le Maître à danser” by Pierre Rameau (1725)

    The year 2025 will mark the 300th anniversary of the publication of a major work for the understanding of the dance of the 18th century: The Dancing-Master which Teaches the Manner of Performing all the Different Steps in Dancing in All Regularity of the Art and How to Move the Arms with Each Step by Pierre Rameau (1674-1748). On the anniversary of this publication, we wish to review the history and the content of the Maître à danser, but also the circumstances of its creation, situating it more generally in the history of treatises on dance technique during the first half of the 18th century. The conference will also cover practices of which the treatise merely bears traces of, which have only been revealed in recent research. The objective of this colloquium will thus be twofold: To gain a fuller picture of the role of this work in the 18th century and its effects on current practices in the reconstruction of Early Dance.

    Counter-Hegemonic Discourses in the Indian Ocean and in Africa: Thinking and Writing a Shared World?

    One of the major questions brought up by this conference is to understand how these discourses – which pursue the emancipation and decolonization of both the Indianoceanic and African thought and a re-evaluation of the notion of creolization, whether explicitly mentioned or underlying – can help to shape new “relationalities”. Could they establish new fields of force between the islands of the Indian Ocean and the African continent? This conference invites interdisciplinary perspectives to examine how these various forms of discourse attempt to deconstruct dominant ideologies, and social-cultural structures and norms. Do these discursive constructions and strategies reflect a desire to bring the islands of the Indian Ocean closer to Africa, and to seek a reappraisal of their shared history?

    Language : New Productions and New Perspectivess from Antiquity to the Present Day

    The conference will take place from October 22 to 24, 2025, at Université Jean Monnet, in Saint-Étienne. The junior laboratory GRAPHÉ (Research Group on Philological and Human Action through an Epistemological Prism) was founded at Université Jean Monnet in Saint-Étienne in 2024. It aims at conducting an incipient, interdisciplinary study of the ways in which languages influence and are influenced by human actions. After an initial symposium in October 2024 dedicated to the interpenetration of language and politics, we now wish to organize a conference focusing on language in all its newest forms, by confronting it with the latest analytical prisms and methods of study.

    Urban financialization and territorial development

    Revue « Région et Développement »

    In the context of the increasingly prominent role of market finance in shaping the built environment and land-use patterns of our territories, this call for contributions aims to facilitate a collective reflection on the financialization of real estate and its implications for territorial inequalities. Submissions should investigate the role of financial actors and their investment strategies, as well as the impact of this transformation on metropolitan regions, peripheral territories, and mid-sized cities. Contributions focusing on the role of local policies and communities in this process are also encouraged.

    Psychoanalysis and Contemporary Fictions on the Big and Small Screens

    Revue « Transcr(é)ation » - Hiver 2026

    Transcr(é)ation is a specialty journal dedicated to intermediality and the dialogues between texts and films, without prioritizing either. This term has been borrowed from translation studies in order to shed some light on the benefits of such a dialogue between the media. We welcome any theoretical or analytical works, interviews, and thematic dossiers on the questions of intermediality, transposition between media, dialogue between and through the arts, or any other foray into related subjects. For our 7th dossier, we are calling for papers in either English or French dealing with psychoanalysis and contemporary fictions from cinema and TV series.

    The Institut des hautes études cinématographiques (IDHEC) in France: milestones for a plural history

    The aim of the conference is to bring together researchers who have carried out work on the history of Institut des hautes études cinématographiques (IDHEC), using a variety of approaches, while helping to identify and stimulate new work on issues that have yet to be fully addressed. Between its creation in 1943, on the foundations of the Centre artistique et technique des jeunes du cinéma (CATJC) established in Nice in 1941, and its merger-absorption by La Fémis in 1986, the IDHEC was a central institution in cinema education in France, whose history it accompanied. Yet the school has never been the subject of a monographic publication covering its entire history.

    Music and Knowledge Making in the 18th Century

    Cette conférence, organisée par Amparo Fontaine (Post-doctorante Marie Curie, EHESS-CRH, GEHM/ Universidad Católica de Valparaíso), explore les trajectoires entrelacées de la musique et des savoirs scientifiques. Elle vise à analyser ce que signifiait concevoir la musique comme une « science » et à l’examiner dans les académies scientifiques au XVIIIe siècle. En intégrant divers champs d’étude, acteurs sociaux et perspectives géographiques, la conférence stimulera des discussions interdisciplinaires sur la musique en tant que source et instrument de savoir.

    Intelligence artificielle et management des organisations en Afrique : enjeux, opportunités et menaces

    Ce colloque s’intéresse au phénomène de l’intelligence artificielle (IA) et ses impacts sur le management des organisations en Afrique. Si l’intelligence artificielle constitue des opportunités pour les uns, elles représentent aussi des menaces pour les autres. En Afrique, l’inquiétude générée par l’IA est liée au risque d’aggravation de la fracture numérique et des inégalités sociales entre pays riches et pays pauvres. Face aux défis, opportunités et menaces potentielles, ce colloque international se propose d’explorer les multiples dimensions de l’IA appliquées à la gestion des organisations dans le contexte africain.

    Ukrainian music beyond borders: a study of its reception before and after 2024

    This international symposium will examine the reception of musical works by Ukrainian composers in artistic institutions (such as Philharmonics, concert halls, artistic centers and festivals) and in the press (both specialized and non-specialized) since 2014. Does the perception of Ukrainian music differ between Ukraine and abroad? If so, what makes this difference? Reflections will integrate various European countries such as England, Germany, the Czech Republic and France, as well as in non-European countries.

    Satie 2025. One hundred years of heritage

    Le colloque propose une réflexion sur l’héritage de Satie aux XXe et XXIe siècles, en favorisant la comparaison entre différents répertoires et expériences, dans une perspective pluridisciplinaire. Il sera également question de poser le problème en termes transdisciplinaires étant donné la propension de l’auteur à élargir les frontières sémantiques et esthétiques de la musique elle-même. Cette perspective élargie ne devra cependant pas exclure l’interrogation purement musicologique et sont attendues des contributions novatrices – surtout dans le domaine analytique – en vertu des compétences spécifiques exprimées par le partenariat avec les Conservatoires de Turin et Catane.

    Housing policies and social order in imperial and post-imperial France

    Metropolitan, colonial and overseas territories from the 1920s to the present

    The aim of this issue is to examine the relationship between public housing and the reproduction of social order in colonial and post-colonial contexts from an intersectional perspective through the lenses of class, gender, race and/or nationality. The aim is to examine spaces that are often considered separate – the colonies and the metropole – in the same analytical frame, in order to uncover circulation between the metropole and colonies, understand colonial legacies, and explore the effects of decolonization.

    Authors and their Translators: the Genealogy of an Asymmetric Relationship

    Étape incontournable de la mise en circulation à l’internationale, la traduction se voit rapidement confrontée aux conséquences d’une nouvelle conjoncture socio-économique. La législation supranationale en matière du droit d’auteur, qui se constitue progressivement sous l’égide de la Société des Nations, met ainsi fin à la fois à la liberté de traduction et à un statut égalitaire du traducteur. Cet ouvrage se donne pour objectif de parcourir ce chemin dans le sens inverse en reconstituant la généalogie de ce rapport des forces en présence au sein du champ éditorial afin de saisir les tenants et les aboutissants du processus de professionnalisation des métiers d’écriture et ses effets pour les pratiques de traduction littéraire.

    Objects and everyday life in Early Modern Latin America Art

    Crafts, and material culture in light of the encounter with European travellers

    Colonial studies in recent years are increasingly bringing attention to topics that go beyond purely historical, geographical, or ethical issues. There is also a desire to focus on aspects of everyday life, on the elements that constituted moments of family routine, the rituals of cult activities, the spheres of work, like handicrafts, agriculture, and commerce, or personal affairs. This workshop intends to explore precisely this reality, and investigate the objects that were part of the private and everyday - but also public and religious - moments in the lives of the peoples of Latin America between the 16th and 18th centuries.

    Heritage Villages and Tourism: Local Issues, Global Experiences

    In a societal context that calls for practices to be reinvented for a sustainable territorial development (Knafou, 2023), heritage villages are at the crossroads of several issues, both in terms for the actions of inhabitants and the participation of visitors and tourists. This conference, organised by ESTHUA, the National Institute of Tourism - INNTO France of the University of Angers, and ICUNA, the Joint Institute of the Universities of Ningbo and Angers, will focus on several issues relating to the heritage of villages and the challenges they face in terms of tourism, in particular: adaptation to local society, the natural, environmental and intangible dimensions of the heritage on offer, adaptation to tourist numbers and the involvement of local people in tourism development projects.

    Monasteries and religious communities in the Alps from the Middle Ages to the present day

    History, landscape, architecture and enhancement of cultural heritage

    Volume 31/2026 of Histoire des Alpes – Storia delle Alpi – Geschichte der Alpen wishes to dedicate its Dossier to the theme of monasteries and religious communities in the Alpine region. While the history of regular communities was largely investigated from the second half of the 19th century until the first years of the 20th century, in particular thanks to the impetus of members of the clergy who devoted themselves to collecting, transcribing and translating archives, as well as publishing monographs, there has been a revival of interest in this subject over the last few decades in the Alps and Pre-Alps, driven in particular by archaeologists, by the diversification of issues concerning the religious world and, locally, by the desire of the public authorities to broaden the range of the tourism offer by promoting local heritage.
