The academic democracy : concept and pratices
As part of its mission to promote research, the Nantes University academic democracy mission invites you to discuss Academic Democracy. Contributions may focus on the definition of “academic democracy”, its historical trajectory, its legal framework or its political or sociological issues, including by looking at experiences abroad. Contributions may also aim to explain innovative democratic mechanisms within universities in order to provide reflective and shared feedback.

Thinking and Making Europe through the Experience of Exile and Displacement (20th–21st centuries)
The conference will explore the role of displaced and exiled populations in the construction of Europe, whether they came from European countries or other regions of the world. Taking a resolutely multi-disciplinary approach, the conference will especially focus on the period that began with the Spanish Civil War and the outbreak of the Second World War, although it will not exclude looking at earlier periods. The central question will be to examine how these actors conceived of and made Europe – how they contributed to its construction, or on the contrary to its failure. We will explore how these populations experienced European conflicts, violence, and control mechanisms, in other words the resources, uses, representations, and statements that have shaped this Europe on the move.

Literatur and Psychiatrie revisited, 1920–1970
Momente gegenseitiger Beobachtung | Moments d'observation mutuelle
Le colloque se consacrera à la relation entre littérature et psychiatrie après « l’âge d’or de l’aliénisme » ( Castel 1977) en examinant des moments d’observation et de description mutuelles qui se déroulent entre l’apparition des avant-gardes et l’apogée de l’antipsychiatrie européenne. Faudra-t-il adapter les catégories d’analyse littéraire et d’histoire des savoirs qui ont fait leurs preuves dans l’étude du XIXe siècle lorsqu’il s’agit d’explorer les relations entre l’écriture littéraire et le savoir psychopathologique dans le contexte des bouleversements poétologiques et épistémologiques survenus depuis l’entre-deux-guerres ?

Bloody Politics: How Princes of the House of France Shaped Political Life (1661-1848)
Quel fut le rôle politique joué par les princes et princesses du sang en France entre le retour en grâce du prince de Condé en 1661 et la fin de la monarchie (1848) ? Telle est la question centrale posée par ce colloque international qui propose de faire le point des apports historiographiques récents et des chantiers en cours sur la question. Au-delà d’une étude de la France d’Ancien Régime, nous désirons par ce colloque ouvrir des perspectives comparatives. Quelles spécificités le règlement de la succession au trône de France et le statut de princes du sang en résultant entraînèrent-ils pour les idées et pratiques politiques ? D’autres conceptions de la place des membres de la famille royale mènent-elles à d’autres configurations politiques et sociales ? Nous désirons comparer la place et les activités des princes et princesses du sang dans l’Ancien Régime français avec celles de la première moitié du XIXe siècle et leurs équivalents dans d’autres États.

Circulations of pedagogies: craft teaching in a colonial and post-colonial context
Ce colloque propose de se pencher sur la circulation de la transmission du geste et des techniques en contexte colonial et post-colonial, du XIXe au XXIe siècle. L’historienne de l’art Victoria L. Rovine rappelle que comme ses équivalents classificatoires « art » et « artefact », l’artisanat est un concept occidental, appliqué à des objets d’autres cultures dans le but de les absorber dans des pratiques de collection et d’exposition. C’est la circulation des savoirs, des gestes, techniques et motifs ainsi que les forces de résistance ou de coopération avec les structures et les patrimoines (pré)-existants qui nous intéressent ici. On considérera le contexte colonial comme celui d’une colonisation occidentale en Afrique, Asie, Amérique latine et Océanie, mais aussi celui d’une colonisation désormais considérée comme interne, comme aux États-Unis ou en Australie.

Polarisation of British and American societies
Causes, consequences, perspectives
The growing polarisation within American and British societies raises profound questions about the mechanisms by which public opinion is influenced and the political and social transformations that ensue. This polarisation expresses itself at several levels, notably between different age groups, between levels of education, and between urban and rural areas. We assume here that the apparent polarisation of US and UK societies has increased in recent years, not least due to the rise to power and tenure of Donald J. Trump in the US and the vote in favour of Brexit in the UK. The aim will be to understand how these two events have acted as catalysts reinforcing divisions already present and creating new forms of divisions.

Writing German Colonial History Today. Renewed Issues and Perspectives
What are the new issues and perspectives of writing German colonial history today? This conference attempts to provide an overview of the latest works on German colonialism after more than two decades of research upon that subject. It focuses on four major topics, which are at the core of recent historiographical debates: transimperial connections, the agency of indigenous actors, the extent of German imperialism and postcolonial Germany.

The Problem of Urban Extensions & Informal Housing
Studies on informal housing are often fragmented, limiting the overall understanding of the issue. Beyond housing precariousness, informal housing encompasses a complexity of aspects influenced by various economic, social, and political factors, with a perspective often focused on Southern countries. A multidisciplinary approach is necessary to fully grasp these dynamics and formulate inclusive urban policies adapted to all societies.

What counting means in an imperial and colonial situation
This conference intends to open in new ways the file of accounting and statistical approaches produced in imperial and colonial context (thematic maps, surveys, statistical series etc.) to extract all the information that they are likely to provide on societies and situations that they are supposed to illuminate. Taking into account the numerous historiographical findings, the critiques of the different numerical elements used, their racialist and normative aims, it is as much a question of being interested in the conditions of their production, whether they are visible (investigators) or invisible (interpreters , village elites), than to analyze the reactions to their production, their distribution or to specify the expectations of the sponsors and the uses to which they give rise. The conference intends to encourage the crossing of the scales mobilized by the different supports of these accounting elements, starting from individuals and up to the relations between administrations or colonial companies and the Metropolis.

Quoting, editing, rewriting: reception and representation of fragmentary Latin poetry
The way in which our access to fully extant texts is mediated by subsequent reception is now well established. In the case of fragmentary works of Latin poetry, this mediation is even more direct and material: because we depend on secondary transmission for our access, the corpus of early Roman poetry is composed exclusively of the elements that ensured its reception (quotation, testimonia, etc.). It is often the case that studies of the reception of fragmentary authors tell us more about the later receiving authors and their aims than about the earlier authors and works to which they refer. This symposium is therefore less concerned with the content of Latin fragmentary poetry than with its literary and editorial development.

Call for papers - Prehistory and Antiquity
The concept of exemplarity is of fundamental importance in Roman literary and historical culture. This conference aims to explore beyond the the rhetorical value of the exemples to question their epistemological and historiographical dimensions within the cultural and political landscape of ancient Rome. We will look at how an event or an individual becomes an exemplum, how that exemplum evolves to change its meaning, and above all, at what point it loses its epistemological value. By highlighting the long duration of examples, this approach aims to move away from a rhetorical study by focusing on the historical dimension of the example: how an event becomes the yardstick for studying and evaluating similar events, or how examples are used by different social actors, whether in support of or in opposition to power, to reinforce their actions or claims, particularly in times of crisis.

Artistic Creation, Biodiversity and Oceanic Environment (19th-21st Centuries)
This interdisciplinary symposium brings together researchers from the humanities, social sciences and natural sciences, as well as artists and museum professionals, to analyze ocean-related art. “The ocean comprises the largest object on our planet” is how literary scholar Steve Mentz describes it, as he works to bring together different forms of knowledge about this elusive entity. Mentz coined the term “blue humanities” to bring together interdisciplinary methodologies that focuses on the ocean. This symposium aims to enrich this field through the arts. Open to the public, it seeks to encourage exchange and discussion.

Rock, Activism and Liberation (1950-2020)
The objective of this conference is to take a closer look at the various forms of activism and empowerment of rock and contemporary music performers, through their work, their positions and their career, focusing in particular on activism based on a desire for liberation and in opposition to ideological, social, economic, cultural or religious norms. These topics will be addressed within a broad chronology, from the aftermath of the Second World War to the present day, through all types of music that fall within the loose definition of "rock", and on the basis of deliberately interdisciplinary approach.
