Call for papers - Epistemology and methodology
Methods and pedagogies
For over a century, researchers and clinicians have been interested in using drawings to understand bodily experience. Some of the best known are: Goodenough's drawing of the man (1926) and Palmer's pain charts (1949). Today, there has been a renewal of these techniques through a range of visual materials. Thus, drawing still aims to show what cannot always be said or written. It will also launch a debate on research methodologies.

“How I became a writer”: writers frequently give retrospective accounts of their professional journeys, shaped by lofty ambitions and the challenges faced in gaining recognition. The profession of a writer appears to remain relatively unformalized all around the world, and marked by a temporal gap between vocation and consecration. “Entering literature” is thus the subject of biographical reassessments, in which authors seek to locate the points of entry into the literary vocation, prior to any recognition. We seek to explore literary forms of self-narration that recount the experiences of becoming a writer. While essential in shaping authorial postures, these accounts are often at odds with the actual conditions of writing. In the attempt to understand how these accounts intersect with experiences of literary exposure, authorial postures, and literary genres, we examine a broad range of situations and pay attention to cultural variability. Attending to these first-person narratives of entering literature thus enables us to consider subjective self-perceptions alongside external designations from different legitimizing bodies, such as critics, academics, and institutions.

Emerging techniques applied to the world of historical and archaeological research
Séminaire TechnicoTop
TechnicoTop is a matter of current events. Its purpose is to present and get to know both experts in their respective fields within the scientific sectors and emerging methods and techniques applied to the scientific world, all working tools actually needed to better develop research as a whole. It aims to break down barriers between disciplines in order to optimise both primary resource and research results to be used and exploited.

Valenciennes
The aim of this conference is to examine the notion of possession and its various forms (alienable/inalienable possession, part-whole relationships), with a focus on corpus linguistics. Given the advent of the theoretical framework of Construction Grammar (Goldberg 1995), and in the era of digital humanities, new statistical methods (calculations of sparsity, density of occurrences, productivity, visualisations with decision trees, etc.) have emerged. This enables multifactorial analyses to be proposed on the basis of large amounts of data.

Misopédie. La domination adulte dans les discours contemporains
Take part in France's very first transdisciplinary scientific event on misopedics (which is to children what misogyny is to women). The domination of children by adults has been extensively studied by researchers around the world. Especially as it is by far the most widespread form of domination in our societies. In France it is so widespread and pervasive that we are not even necessarily aware of it. It's high time French research got on board.

Tele-Visions: Technologies of Ubiquity in the Visual Arts (19th-21st centuries)
Seminar 2024-2025
Tele-Visions is a research program created by IMAGO-Cultures Visuelles (HiCSA, University Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne). It 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 seminar 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.

Présences artistiques iraniennes : Création et résistance
Revue interartistique « Couturière » - n° 1
Ce numéro vise à offrir une analyse pluridisciplinaire des arts iraniens contemporains en adoptant une approche pluri-artistique (théâtre, cinéma, arts visuels, musique…). Nous nous attacherons à examiner les compromis que les artistes vivant en Iran doivent trouver pour témoigner et dénoncer la vérité politique sans être censurés, ainsi que les difficultés rencontrées en exil : le sentiment de déracinement, la recherche de leur place dans un nouveau contexte, et leur engagement à représenter les injustices étatiques en Iran. Comme le souligne Shirin Neshat, artiste en exil pour son travail artistique « l’art iranien est un art politique si ce n’est pas politique ce n’est pas un art iranien. »

Seminar - Epistemology and methodology
40 Years Anniversary of the Seminar
The transnational research seminar consists of lectures by invited international scholars dedicated to the study of cultural transfers in very different regions. The central theme of the various sessions is the question of the vectors that explain and promote the various shifts in intellectual content in space and time, as well as the resemantizations that necessarily go hand in hand with these shifts. The topics dealt with are deliberately diverse in order to facilitate contacts between the disciplines and methodological discussions. A common theme is the history and epistemology of the human sciences with a focus on questions of spatialization in historiographical constructions.

Improving the quality of working life
“Laboreal”, July 2025 edition
Over the last twenty years, there has been a proliferation of research and interventions whose purpose, in contrast to the strict profitability objective of ‘quality circles’, focuses on the quality of working life. They have often been designated by the acronym QWL. This designation authorizes a wide range of methodologies and actions and there have been proposals structured considering diagnoses and interventions that were based on the workers’ point of view and on what happens in reality at work situations. In these approaches, the tradition of activity ergonomics and work psychology once again demonstrate the wealth of methodological tools and intervention models. Laboreal invites researchers to present studies addressing this issue, in particular those that present detailed field experiences.

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.

45th International Days of the French Association of Merovingian Archaeology
En 2018, lors des 39e 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 45e 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 XIe 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 for, in and about film and audiovisual productions
L’Afeccav propose de se pencher, à l’occasion de son 13e 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.

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.

Call for papers - Political studies
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.
