    Describing Creole Languages in the 19th Century: Ideology, Sociology, and Intertextuality

    How do beliefs about Creole languages influence the their descriptions by 19th-century creolists? This issue of Archipélies seeks to answer this question, focusing on the beliefs, representations, and, more broadly, ideologies that permeate descriptions of Creole languages from the documentation of Haitian Creole by Ducœurjoly in 1802 to the naturalistic portrayal of Creoles around the turn of the century1. Far from being reduced to simple nomenclatures, descriptions of Creole languages reproduce an ideological background that must be examined in order to better understand the gradual development of a linguistic discourse on the genesis and structures of Creole languages. As linguistic practices born out of colonial situations, forced contact, and historical ruptures, Creoles and their descriptions crystallize the ideological and conceptual divisions of coloniality, threatening its coherence and uniformity.

    Thinking the Relationship to Artificial Intelligence and Digital Technologies: Powers, Resistances, Innovations

    Emerging Practices in Technologies and Communication for Development

    Digital technologies constitute a central factor in the transformation of contemporary societies, with artificial intelligence representing one of their most significant vectors. They simultaneously carry promises of innovation and participation, and act as vectors of dependency, exclusion, and renewed forms of domination. The aim is to explore the tensions that run through the imagination, uses and challenges of artificial intelligence and advanced digital technologies, combining critical approaches, field studies and theoretical perspectives.

    Edition and editorial practices, past and present

    This international, bilingual conference organised with the Société Française Shakespeare and the Société d’Études Anglaises et Américaines des XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles seeks to analyse the world of edition and editions in the early modern period, as well as of works first produced in the early modern period. This conference therefore proposes to bring together discussions of the publishing and editorial worlds of the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, and the stakes and questions that underpin the making of contemporary editions of early modern texts.

    Babies as world makers

    Revue « Terrain » n° 87

    This special issue of Terrain aims to put newborns at the heart of anthropological analysis of collectives. Every birth is preceded by alliances, precipitates ruptures or reconfigurations, and opens up possibilities. It represents both an unpredictable encounter and a beginning, a fragile possibility for the perpetuation and preservation of the highest values. The aim of this issue is to take seriously the disruptive force of babies, from their undecided ontological position. While babies may not obviously make “heads turn and worlds go round” everywhere, as Nita imagines, their sudden appearance certainly creates disorder and reorganization that must be examined. This issue will attempt to do so.

    Star Trek, Dynamics of a World-building Factory

    Expansion, Variation, Densification

    Since its first broadcast on September 8, 1966, Star Trek has established itself as a prolific, transmedia, and intergenerational fictional universe that can be divided into three major eras. It is therefore not surprising that, since the 1990s, Star Trek has become a favored subject of study in Anglo-Saxon cultural studies, popular media studies, and science fiction studies, but such studies remain very rare in the French-speaking world. Most of the work focuses on its ideological, political, and social dimensions.

    Reframing the Enlightenment. Intellectual and political disputes today

    Conference of the International Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies

    Since around the turn of the millennium, the winds of scholars’s and society’s favour towards the Enlightenment have changed. Today, it seems that the society that the Enlightenment thinkers envisioned has not been realized. We are still facing fundamental inequalities: namely a power imbalance between the sexes, between elites and the people, between Europeans and the “rest” of the world.

    Intercultural Transfers

    Ce séminaire constitue un lieu d’échanges sur les travaux actuels concernant les transferts culturels. À chaque séance, deux chercheurs sont invités pour présenter leurs recherches et débattre de leur approche. Le cadre intellectuel est celui de l’histoire et de l’épistémologie des sciences humaines, et le fil directeur des séances, méthodologique : il s’agit de repérer les vecteurs par lesquels s’opèrent les déplacements de contenus intellectuels et culturels ainsi que de questionner les processus de resémantisation qui accompagnent ces transformations. D’une séance à l’autre, les thématiques varient : ce choix est lié au souci de tester la pertinence de l’approche en termes de transferts culturels au-delà de la diversité des objets abordés et de nouer un dialogue entre les disciplines.

    La misopédie dans les institutions

    Misopedia is hatred of children (similar to misogyny, which refers to hatred of women). It is the feeling of contempt – most often unconscious – that we harbour towards younger people, the rejection we subject them to in the functioning of society. Being or having been a child is the one and only universal experience common to all human beings on the planet. And yet, from generation to generation, there is a recurring inability to empathise with childhood once we have left it behind. This misopedia is not universal, but it is quite widespread and varies, of course, according to time and place.

    Work and Utopia(s)"

    Laboreal, July 2026

    Since the 19th century, the cyclical crises of our industrial societies have fuelled multiple initiatives aimed at envisioning another possible world. Yet recent decades have revealed a state of profound crisis that leads us to doubt, more radically than ever, the validity and sustainability of our ways of thinking and acting. Our futures are at stake, our models of society are being strained under the pressure of climate change, social and societal upheavals, public health crises, and political instability. In this context, human labour is an undeniable issue.  In these times of transition, ways of thinking about and acting on work increasingly integrate the utopian dimension, which underlies the evolution of both the worlds of work and communities of life. This issue will therefore be an opportunity to take stock of the state of the art.

    Writings from the private archives of dignitaries exiled in Réunion

    This workshop explores the intimate effects of the educational experience of dignitaries exiled to Reunion Island at the dawn of the 20th century.  Experimenting seclusion, their exile was also a time of publicizing their words, with the publication of memoirs and press articles. The aim is to see how these prison worlds, which were on the increase during the colonial period, helped shape the bodies and souls of the inmates. Focusing on the writings of exiled dignitaries, this workshop seeks to probe the intimate changes that these new scholastic knowledges operate in terms of sociability, relationship to self and others, in a context of resistance to French occupation.

    Academic freedom in question

    Is the expression of diverse perspectives for the development of knowledge still possible in academia?

    Un des questionnements importants auquel fait face l’Université aujourd’hui est celui de la liberté académique. Depuis maintenant de nombreuses années, celle-ci fait l’objet de débats, qui ont abouti au Québec à la loi 32. Ce qui est en jeu est la liberté de pensée et de conscience, mais aussi la diversité des perspectives nécessaires à l’élaboration du savoir. En même temps, on constate de plus en plus que le traditionnel clivage entre la gauche et la droite, qui nous guidait dans notre compréhension du monde, ne correspond plus à des définitions claires de ces courants politiques. On y retrouve d’un côté comme de l’autre : polarisation, autocensure et censure. Quel est leur impact sur l’élaboration universitaire du savoir ?

    Diplomatic Gifts in the Modern and Contemporary Eras

    Definitions, Changes, and Patrimonialisation on a Global Scale

    Considering the long history of diplomatic relations, the conference aims above all to fully analyse the evolving agency of gifts, from the strengthening of princely dynastic alliances to the consolidation of nation states, as well as the way in which the objects offered construct and potentially reconfigure links. How do these objects fit into a policy of gift-giving, whether serial or renewed over time? According to what rituals must these witnesses, which seal the agreement, themselves reactivate the alliance (counter-gift, reconnection journey, etc.)? How are they perceived and understood a few years after they were offered, and when they become part of discourses on patrimonialisation, especially in places dedicated to their collective conservation, which are themselves, in turn, active tools?

    Dimensions spatiales des pratiques d’asile (trans)nationales dans les littératures allemande, française et espagnole des XXe et XXIe siècles

    Le colloque explore l’articulation entre asile et espace à travers le prisme des études culturelles et littéraires. À la lumière du Spatial Turn, de la Critical Geography, de la Feminist Geography et de la Postcolonial Spatial Theory, l’espace peut être compris comme le produit d’une pratique socialement construite et dynamique. Comment les littératures allemande, française et espagnole des XXe et XXIe siècles localisent-elles et matérialisent-elles les pratiques d’asile ? Quelles institutions sont mises en exergue et quelles esthétiques suscitent-elles ?

    How to write fictional history. Historiographies in imaginative fiction

    La rencontre organisée par les Têtes Imaginaires vise à poursuivre la réflexion sur les liens entre histoire et littérature de l’imaginaire en repartant de l’histoire en tant que pratique d’élaboration d’un récit historique. Une dimension caractéristique des mondes imaginaires est que leur passé est structuré, par exemple en chronologies millénaires, et c’est sur la forme de ces histoires, plutôt que sur leur contenu, que portera la rencontre.
