Couleurs, matières, supports

Numéro 8 de la revue « Polygraphes »

Par son inscription sur un support, l’acte graphique devient écriture ou figure, prend corps et existe en tant que production matérielle. Il devient indissociable de cette surface bi-ou tridimensionnelle qui l’expose, le contraint, le prolonge, et l’accompagne dans la transmission d’un message. Le choix de la matière ainsi marquée, de ses formes et de ses volumes, de sa texture, participe à l’intention de l’acte graphique. Elle en détermine également la temporalité, la permanence ou la fugacité. La compréhension de l’acte graphique requiert ainsi que l’on interroge ses interactions avec le support et son environnement. Lorsque l’acte graphique implique un ajout de matière, son étude révèle des choix culturels, esthétiques, des savoirs-faires, des représentations collectives et symboliques qui lui sont attachées, des réseaux d’échanges parfois sur très longues distances. Cette matière enregistre souvent la trace du geste et de l’outil.

Religious Architecture of the Early Middle Ages in the Frankish World and its Margins: Legacies and Transformations

45th International Days of the French Association of Merovingian Archaeology

En 2018, lors des 39^e Journées internationales de l’Association Française d’Archéologie Mérovingienne consacrées à L’archéologie de la construction au haut Moyen Âge, plusieurs communications ont questionné nos connaissances sur la construction des lieux de culte durant le haut Moyen Âge. Les 45^e Journées Internationales de l’Association Française d’Archéologie Mérovingienne aborderont donc la question de L’architecture religieuse de l’Antiquité tardive à la fin du XI^e siècle en Europe. Elles ont pour objectif d’essayer d’élaborer un état des lieux sur ce thème et d’ouvrir de nouvelles perspectives de recherche sur l’architecture, l’organisation spatiale et fonctionnelle des édifices ecclésiaux du premier Moyen Âge.

Writing and Screen

Writing for, in and about film and audiovisual productions

L’Afeccav propose de se pencher, à l’occasion de son 13^e congrès, sur les liens multiples tissés entre l’écrit et les écrans, dans les processus de création mais aussi de réception ainsi que dans les œuvres, et en considérant tant les productions écrites proprement dites que les modalités d’écriture. Trois types de relations pourront être envisagés. Le premier se déploie lors de la phase de préparation et de réalisation des œuvres, regroupant le vaste ensemble des écrits scénaristiques. Un deuxième englobe les écrits qui accompagnent et commentent les productions audiovisuelles écrits critiques ou journalistiques, historiques, analytiques ou théoriques. Un troisième ensemble, enfin, couvre la présence de l’écrit à l’écran. Nous souhaiterions orienter les réflexions autour de quatre axes : le repérage d’auteurs et de corpus jusque-là peu étudiés, les dialogues qui s’établissent entre le mot et l’image, la question des circulations médiatiques et la présence de l’écrit sur l’écran.

Brian De Palma : la politique des images

Brian De Palma: The Politics of Images

In 2025, the US filmmaker Brian De Palma will turn 85. To celebrate this New Hollywood pioneer and his impressive body of work (30 feature-length fiction films, not counting ongoing projects, documentaries and shorts), this symposium will look at the director’s filmography primarily through political and aesthetic approaches, aiming to offer a fresh perspective on a much-studied body of work. It will also be an opportunity to look at his lesser-known works.

Non-violence in fantasy

In the realm of fantasy, violence often erupts in epic battles and the internal conflicts of protagonists, heightening the story’s intensity: threats, manipulations, oppressions, dark magic, rapes, fights, torture, and assassinations serve as catalysts to maintain narrative tension, show the complexity of characters, and explore the dark side of human nature. Yet, non-violence seems to meet this challenge with equal strength. Indeed, many heroes, guided by their compassion, wisdom, or moral integrity, choose non-violence to fight against injustice, inner turmoil, or evil. Proposals can explore non-violence in fantasy works from various angles (cinematographic, narratological, as well as cultural, sociological, etc.). They can study specific cases or offer global and/or comparative analyses.

Political Speeches in Film

In 1970, Michel Foucault highlighted the links between discourse and power in his inaugural lecture at the Collège de France : “I am supposing that in every society the production of discourse is at once controlled, selected, organized and redistributed according to a certain number of procedures, whose role is to avert its powers and its dangers […]”. This issue is also found in films. Even though Costa-Gavras has stated that “cinema is not a political discourse but a spectacle”, it seems that political discourse and movies are closely linked. This is demonstrated by the many films in which characters speak out in public to defend a cause, exploring the very nature of politics as the art of representation.

Degrowth in Mountain Tourism: Future Challenges and Prospects of Tourism in Mountain Regions

Global tourism has growth to a level that questions the current and future sustainability of the industry and its impacts for our environment. While the developmental aspects of tourism have been largely based on the scale of visitors flows, there is an increasing need to think the limits to growth in tourism and alternative development paradigms for future tourism. This kind of questioning of the impacts of growth, in general, is not new (First Report to the Club of Rome, 1972; First World Climate Conference [Geneva] 1979; Brundtland Report 1987), but there are new ways to reconceptualise alternative futures for development. In tourism, one of the recently emerged idea is based on a degrowth thinking in economic and social development discussion in the 2000s (Latouche, 2022; Bernard et al., 2003)

Gender, Memory and Sources

This conference will focus on the links that can be observed between gender and memory in textual and iconographic sources. This conference belongs to a cycle created by the Structure Fédératrice de Recherche ALLHiS, and as such, will focus more specifically on the analysis of the sources used by researchers. This conference aims at questioning the ways in which memory and gender are represented, whether it be in written sources (manuscripts, literary or legal texts…), iconographic sources (photos, statues, paintings…) or immaterial sources (ethnographic data). The aim of such a study is to welcome works based on the study of as many different sources as possible, which will enable researchers to construct an interdisciplinary overview of these sources that aims at being diverse rather than exhaustive.

Migration to and through Nord Africa

L’objet de ce colloque international est de brosser un tableau qui se veut un rétrospectif général des sciences sociales et humaines, restituant et situant la question migratoire maghrébine et nord-africaine dans son contexte général en rapport avec la dimension européenne qui reste incontournable. Il est important d’actualiser les données concernant notre sujet en fonction des mutations géopolitiques récentes dans le monde contemporain et notamment dans la région maghrébine, pour pouvoir proposer des recommandations, des préconisations, et des pistes de réflexions cohérentes, pouvant faciliter les prises de décisions en termes de politiques publiques.

Edges of the sacred. Materializing thresholds, from Antiquity to the end of the Middle Ages

Revue « Frontière·s »

Art historians and archaeologists working on sacred monuments are not only interested in the architectural forms and techniques and the painted and/or sculpted decoration: they also try to reconstruct the ceremonies and circulations that took place around and inside the buildings they study. A sacred space is defined by a material or symbolic boundary that separates the building and its surroundings from profane space. This area, which belongs to the divinity, is bounded by a set of rules and customs that govern ritual practice, which is itself closely linked to space: gestures, sacrifices, prayers and paths take place in specific locations, the identification and function of which are often specified by architecture and decoration.

The Media of Art/The Arts of Media

XII. International Congress of the German Society of Aesthetics

So-called “media art” has been around not only since technical media began to intervene in the art world; there has never been media-free art. There is no art that does not express itself in certain media, be it image, sound, light, space or language. There is no art that does not rely on marble and chisel, colour and canvas, pen and paper, sound waves and screen, bits and bytes. Neither media nor materials are ever external to a work of art; rather, aesthetic meaning only arises through the respective medial-material configuration and would be invalid without it. The XII. Congress of the German Society for Aesthetics will focus on the question of the media of the arts.

Seminar - Information

Médiamerica 2024-25

Communication, Information, Politics and Culture in the U.S.

Médiamerica is a seminar on American news media organized by researchers working in France. Its aim is to cultivate research on the links between communication, politics, culture, and the processes by which information is produced, circulated, and given form, focusing on the North American context. Médiamerica brings together researchers with varied backgrounds to explore these issues from both historical and contemporary perspectives. The seminar offers a space for scholarly reflection and debate, to consider emergent phenomena in news and communication, as well as the ways in which the academic community on both sides of the Atlantic conceptualize such phenomena. This initiative seeks to build bridges between anglophone studies and communication studies, encouraging dialogue between different methodological approaches and benefiting from an intercultural perspective.

Must one imagine Sisyphus happy?

On the occasion of the multimedia exhibition «Must one imagine Sisyphus happy?», a symposium, also titled «Must one imagine Sisyphus happy?», aims to explore the discourses and postures that emerge from literary texts over the centuries (16th-21st centuries) concerning the ethics of work. From Robinson Crusoe to Annie Ernaux, we wish to engage, through a series of case studies, with the inner lives of the characters represented over the centuries. We will also question the perspectives and postures of the narrators, as well as those of the authors (who sometimes, especially before the 20^th century, represent labour without having experienced it firsthand). In short, we wish to delve into the ambivalence of literary texts.

Revisiting French-Language Literature

Ce sixième numéro de la Revue Langues, Littératures et Arts, que nous coordonnons, a pour ambition d’explorer ensemble la richesse et la diversité de la littérature d'expression française. En revisitant à la fois les œuvres classiques et contemporaines, nous souhaitons réévaluer les dynamiques culturelles, sociales et esthétiques qui façonnent cette littérature, tout en mettant en lumière les contributions d'auteurs issus de divers horizons géographiques. Nous espérons que les contributions aborderont une variété de thèmes, tels que l'identité culturelle, l'engagement féministe, la postcolonialité, et les innovations littéraires dans le contexte des évolutions mondiales.
