African Arts during the Second World War: Spoliations, Destructions, Displacements
The contemporary focus on African cultural property looted during the colonial period has served to shift the focus back to African artefacts as central to the historical issues of the twentieth century. However, the question remains as to whether this assertion extends to the Second World War period. In the context of contemporary research into objects from colonial contexts and those looted between 1933 and 1945, the fate of African works during this period remains an unresearched subject. This study day will shed light for the first time on the multiple consequences of the war on African art, including its commercialisation, movement and disappearance, both in Africa itself and in Europe.

Literature in the face of Collective Blindness
« Post-Scriptum » Journal #40
This issue invites reflections on what remains unseen today. How does literature work to unsettle these zones of invisibility? We aim to explore the power of literary writing: its role in dissolving certainties, in shifting perception, in reshaping what can be felt and understood. How does it bring to light what has been pushed into the margins, what might resurface tomorrow as a source of collective shame? How do writers confront and resist this selective perception, navigating silence and opacity? What literary strategies allow them to be heard, to be taken seriously, without their texts being swallowed by incomprehensibility?

Conference, symposium - Prehistory and Antiquity
Bone objects during the Roman and Early Byzantine periods
Colloquia Anatolica et Aegaea, congressus internationales Smyrnenses XV
Ancient bone objects have been found in relatively large quantities in the entire Mediterranean, from Spain to Syria and Egypt to France, where they were manufactured between the Neolithic and Medieval periods. The art of carving animal bones involves especially antler and horn. However, the spectrum of the worked bone objects recovered from Anatolia, rest of the eastern Mediterranean, Near East, the Black Sea area and Balkans is very varied, and reflects different characteristics of Graeco-Roman and Early Byzantine daily life. In these areas they were also utilised as grave goods secondarily. They were exported or imported over the entire ancient Graeco-Roman and Early Byzantine worlds. In this conference papers dealing with ancient artefacts or objects manufactured by bone, antler, ivory, animal teeth, mother of pearl and cockleshell are included. Focus will be on bone objects between the first century B.C. and the sixth century A.D.

Queering the Archive - Queering the Exhibition
Ce colloque souhaite porter l’attention sur des pratiques alternatives liées aux collections, aux mémoires et héritages minoritaires. Il invite à explorer ce que pourrait signifier la possibilité d’un « agir queer », d’une « ouverture à ce qui dévie » (Sara Ahmed) pour cet ensemble de pratiques qui accompagnent fonds d’archives et collections. À la suite de Jennifer Tybuczy, nous voulons « appeler à, décrire et mettre en œuvre une pratique de la mise en exposition queer ».

“Intermediality. History and Theory of the Arts, Literature, and Technologies” no. 48 (Fall 2026)
This issue of Intermediality aims to theorize dance (as genre, practice, and idea) from within historical and contemporary entanglements of bodies, media, affects, and values. We are seeking contributions from scholars, choreographers, technicians, and dancers in either essay format or a more creative form, with a focus on projects that involve dance and today’s new and emergent media, such as virtual or augmented reality (VR/AR), robotics, motion capture technology (mocap), AI applications, and other animative and choreographic interfaces. We especially welcome submissions that engage with disability, critical race, and gender studies, and research-creation approaches. Scholars wishing to focus on earlier historical examples of the intersection of dancing and technology are also encouraged to apply.

Revue « TRANS- » n. 33
The circle has extensively been studied for its symbolic implications and the values assigned to it across various cultures and eras (see Alain Delaunay, Gilbert Durand, or Gaston Bachelard, for instance). However, its seminal role in the study of textual dynamics and literary reception can give rise to new critical approaches. Whether they spoke of perfection, ideal, confinement, involvement in initiatory journeys, writers have taken many approaches to exploring the circularity of literary works. Whether in narratology or hermeneutics, the circle challenges conventional definitions of literature, narrative structures, and temporality.

Réactualisation des matériaux et savoir-faire préindustriels
Perspectives historiques
Faced with today's environmental and climatic challenges, architectural production needs to embrace a shift towards frugality, in particular through the use of bio- and geo-sourced materials. In this respect, pre-industrial knowledge and know-how can be particularly inspiring. The aim of this study day is to understand how to design, build and rehabilitate using ancient techniques. The aim is to examine gestures and know-how in relation to so-called traditional building materials. This one-day event will call on researchers to shed scientific light on these essential questions, so as to avoid falling into the irenic trap of a return to our roots, without misrepresenting them or greenwashing them. Adopting a historical perspective could be a way of avoiding this pitfall, contextualizing it and initiating a debate with the practitioners and future practitioners of tomorrow's architecture. This study day is aimed at students, teachers, researchers and anyone interested in learning more about these subjects. The aim is to develop an accurate awareness of materials and know-how.

You Are Here: poetic gestures and creative ecologies from the garden
This one-day symposium seeks to explore the work of writers and artists whose imaginative approaches to poetic practice engage with an evolving consideration of the place of humans in the natural or more-than-human world, in a time of ecological instability, unpredictability, and urgency; whose ecopoetic engagements – on and beyond the medium – echo the dynamic and complex nature of our ecosystems and our entanglement with the non-human. The debate this conference aims to foster will build from the concept supported in the field of ecopoetics and ecocinema according to which diverse forms of activism unfold from the same imaginative processes of art and literature.

Langues locales et (éco)développement
La journée d’études Langues locales et (éco)développement (LoLaDev) propose de s’intéresser aux pratiques langagières et à la circulation des savoirs dans les contextes de développement et d’écodéveloppement dans les relations Sud-Nord et Nord-Sud. Plutôt que d’alimenter la discussion concernant les langues internationales, notamment celles prenant l’anglais comme point central des politiques linguistiques des projets de développement, cette journée a pour objectif principal de proposer une réflexion sur les pratiques langagières des acteurs et actrices sociaux issus des contextes dans lesquels ces projets sont implantés.
