    Political space in ancient times: representation, description, transformation

    This conference aims to develop a reflection on the links between space and politics in ancient times, using an interdisciplinary approach. While archaeologists and historians have been interested in the ways in which space can be a political object, what is missing is a general reflection that would show the contribution of a spatial approach to politics in Classics. To renew our thinking on political space, we will compare the practices of archaeology, whose field of study is resolutely linked to space, and history, whose approach is often more political, with those of literature and philology, which have also seized on space as a methodological tool.

    “Jurimetrics. Journal of the measurement of legal phenomena” - Varia

    The term jurimetrics brings together many scientific works already existing or in gestation using mathematical and statistical methods to better understand legal phenomena. Its applications can be very varied, in terms of the field of application (branch of law or litigation studied), the “process” involved (legistics, legal or administrative practice outside litigation, pre-litigation phase, litigation, enforcement of decisions) or the material considered (court decisions, contracts, transactions, justice management software). Jurimetrics, Journal of the measurement of legal phenomena (in French Jurimétrie, Revue de la mesure des phénomènes juridiques), publishes articles related to jurimetrics, whether they propose results or develop a reflection.

    Contemporary African Art and New Media: Reflections on a New “Intermediatique Axis of Relevance”

    This collective work project addresses the question of the encounter between contemporary African art, new media and intermediality from a creative point of view. It attempts to rethink this encounter in the light of media ondines. The contributions invited in this call for papers require a multidisciplinary approach, in order to better question the mutations that characterise contemporary African artistic creation. We are particularly interested in articles that broaden the aesthetic and temporal categories through which contemporary art, new media and intermediality are traditionally understood.

    Interdisciplinary Franco-Latin-American perspectives on challenges related to the environment

    Since the 1970s, environmental issues have continued to grow. Indeed, we have moved from a localized perception of environmental damage to a global understanding of the risks associated with climate change and their impacts on socio-ecosystems. In order to better respond to the challenges and stakes of the environmental crisis that is impacting us, it seems appropriate to share and make known the experiences and theories developed from different continents, cultures and geographies in order to enrich our object of study. In this regard, this Congress, which will be held from October 23 to 27, 2023 in Costa Rica, proposes to offer perspectives on multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary studies on environmental issues: climate change, biodiversity, resilience, global health, payments for environmental services, etc.

    Health Media Vigilance

    Media vigilance enables the collection and organization of health-related information and makes it more accessible and audible to ensure a better flow of information among the different communities of health actors (health professionals, institutions, manufacturers, start-ups, elected officials, all decision-makers, health influencers, and others.). It may be a matter of provoking reflection on the subject of “health media vigilance” in the context of interdisciplinary research and exchange that will allow understanding and defining the meaning of this concept.

    Tele→Visions

    Technologies of Ubiquity in the Visual Arts, 19th-21st centuries

    The international symposium Télé—Visions brings together a body of recent work on the influence of emission, transmission and reception technologies in the visual arts and visual culture, from the 19th century to the present. Beyond the medium of television itself, the plural “tele-visions” refers to the variety of remote viewing and image transmission techniques which, from semaphores to wireless telegraphy and up to fiber optics and contemporary networks, have configured new models for the circulation and transmission of images. Dialoguing with the history of science and technology as well as with media archaeology, the contributors to the conference will explore broad topics such as the joint evolution of perceptual regimes and remote transmission techniques, the modalities of “prosthetic vision,” the material effects of image transmission and the spatio-temporal issues inherent to network dynamics.

    Cultural Mediation in Language Teaching: Possibilities, Challenges Or Mission Impossible?

    Revue « Verbum et Lingua : Didactique, langue et culture »

    The editorial team of Verbum et Lingua has determined that the thematic focus of this publication will be “Cultural mediation in language teaching: possibilities, challenges or mission impossible?”. Cultural mediation is understood as the search for understanding and comprehension between linguistic and cultural differences of different communities. The teaching of languages and cultures plays a role in cultural mediation through pedagogy, linguistics, intercultural studies, research and methodological tools that serve this purpose. Therefore, the journal invites specialists in cultural mediation and linguistic intermediaries, interested in facilitating the teaching of languages and cultures as a bridge to a better understanding between them, to participate with article proposals.

    Call for papers - Middle Ages

    Experiencing urban crisis in the Middle Ages

    To respond to the IMC Leed 2024 theme, Crisis, we propose to study urban crisis in the Middle Ages as a lived experience, which was made through specific sensations, emotions and actions. In a multi-sessions panel, we propose to examine what is needed to build an experience of crisis, and what makes it so powerful. We will also consider the sources and methods used by scholars, in order to question the phenomenology of this common lived-experience, which was lived by all but described only by the elite.

    Beyond clichés: social-cultural representations and practices of polygamy across Sub-Saharan women’s creative works

    Seminar Series: Women in French Australia

    In this seminar we propose to re-centre various cultural representations arising from literature (oral and written), artistic mediums, media, music and cinema by Francophone Sub-Saharan women. Importantly, this seminar aims to go beyond the denunciation-celebration axis that has so far tinged many a study on polygamy in cultural representations from the continent to explore polygamy in all its forms, including unofficial extra-marital relations implying tacit acceptance of polygamy (Boni, 139), and modes of expression.

    People without history

    The public use of subordinate writings in the early modern and modern periods

    We invite contributions dedicated to the dynamics of the re-signification of subaltern writings in public space in the early modern and modern period. Ordinary writings produced by subaltern actors (popular classes, men and women, childhood) in the transition from the private to the public sphere should therefore be investigated with particular attention to the spaces used, the practices adopted, the strategies of visibility (or obscuration) chosen, the appropriations by civil society, the policies of preservation of popular memory and the pedagogical- didactic use of writings.

    The Levant and the Mediterranean

    Technè, n°59, 2025-1

    At the crossroads of the Near East and the eastern Mediterranean, the Levant has always been a multicultural area, a zone of contact between Asia, Africa and Europe. Since the 19th century, archaeological digs have been revealing the archaeology and history of this region. This issue of Technè reflects the changes and challenges facing archaeology in this region, and highlights the contribution of a multidisciplinary approach to the knowledge and preservation of the Levant's heritage, from the Neolithic period to the end of the Middle Ages.

    Words from Taiwan: emergence, mediation, interpretation

    Taiwan is a challenge for researchers, whether they are historians, anthropologists, sociologists, economists, political scientists, linguists, geographers, demographers, experts in theatre studies / dramaturgy, communications, IT, museum curators or cultural heritage professionals. This conference will look at Taiwan’s progress, its society, literature, religions, languages and exchanges with the rest of the world, as well as its prospects for development. It will also address the complex geopolitical environment, without losing sight of Taiwan’s place in the field of research in France.

    The sexual harasser: gendered perspectives and discourses on a figure in need of historicizing

    The conference concerned by this call for paper is part of the AVISA project aiming at the identification of other periods in the past, in the Western world and well before #MeToo, during which behaviours that can be classified as sexual harassment were experienced or exposed by women and men who, in some instances, combatted them either in court or through creative modes of expression. It intends to explore the phenomenon of sexual harassment by questioning the way it is perceived through a focus not on the figure of the victim but on that of the perpetrator. This will enable us to approach the history of sexual harassment from the angle of the censure or justification of behaviour that falls today into the category of sexual harassment―which we define along with UN Women as encompassing “non-consensual physical contact, like grabbing, pinching, slapping, or rubbing against another person in a sexual way”.
