Dialogue Between Matter and Form: Aesthetic Issues in the Arts and Design
This international symposium explores the aesthetic, technical, and cultural dialogue between marble and sculptural form. By examining marble across art history, contemporary sculpture, architecture, and design, the event aims to understand how matter shapes artistic expression and how creators negotiate between material constraints and formal innovation. The symposium seeks to foster interdisciplinary debate, highlight regional and Mediterranean practices, and propose new perspectives for research, creation, and sustainable development in marble-based artistic practices.

IV Open Theoretical-Practical Conference on the Dissemination of Knowledge about Paleography and the History of Writing

It will focus on the study of abbreviations and marginal notes in Hebrew. There will be theoretical sessions in the morning and a practical session in the afternoon, with calamus pens, quills and handmade ink, working about "experimental paleography".

An ecological transition under strain: country, landscape, and uses in contemporary Germany
The starting point for this conference is the observation that the ecological transition in Germany, which one might have thought would be easier or at least more harmonious than in other countries due to the importance that environmental issues have had in German culture, society, and politics from very early on, is in fact encountering numerous obstacles and is even being called into question. This is evidenced, among other things, by the setbacks which the energy transition encounters and by the success of the party Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) despite—or perhaps because of—its stance in favour of climate change denial.

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.

Marc Bloch in Brazil. History and Social Sciences
The conference proposes a critical reflection on the work and legacy of Marc Bloch (1886–1944), a central figure in historical studies as a social science. His path as a medievalist, co-founder of the Annales, and committed intellectual reveals an interdisciplinary and transnational approach that remains highly relevant today. The event aims to explore the reception of his ideas and their impact on the human and social sciences, bringing together history, theory, and political engagement.

The Island and the Archipelagic Dimension
1st Archipelagic Studies Symposium
The 1st Archipelagic Studies Symposium ‘The Island and the Archipelagic Dimension’ aims to reflect on issues of insularity and archipelagos in the conception of today's world, marked by environmental crises, new trends in human development and reinterpretations of place and its dynamics. Thinking about islands and archipelagos, in all their trans- and inter-material dimensions, equivalences and disparities, influences the conception not only of these discontinued worlds from their continental matrix (in some cases), but also of territories which are assumed to be outside the continent, with ontic possibilities of a truly archipelagic context.

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.

Hermeneutical Rationality and the Future of the Humanities
The set of challenges facing the Humanities today is an opportunity to rethink their future. This conference puts forward a twofold objective. On the one hand, it intends to explore the extent to which the hermeneutical paradigm of the Humanities (Schleiermacher, Dilthey, Gadamer, Ricœur, Taylor), which emphasizes the interpretive core of these disciplines and their contribution to human moral development can still provide meaningful answers to these challenges. On the other hand, it aims to intervene, in a reflective and critical manner, in the debates on the value, need and possible shape of the Humanities in the future.

Cultural and Creative Industries in Africa and the Arab World
The main objective of this first edition of the International Conference on Cultural Engineering and Heritage Development is to approach the Cultural and Creative Industries (CCI) in African and Arab contexts and their evolution in the era of postmodernism; era that is characterized by focus on knowledge, intangibility and digitalization. While the core of CCIs remains in works of art, artistic expressions, cultural heritage, and traditional know-how, the production and reproduction models of art and culture have continued to reinvent themselves, as is the case with those of creation. Thus, from an interdisciplinary perspective, the main themes of this conference focus on the complexity of CCIs in Africa and the Arab world, their specificities, and the issues their development generates.

Literatur and Psychiatrie revisited, 1920–1970
Momente gegenseitiger Beobachtung | Moments d'observation mutuelle
Le colloque se consacrera à la relation entre littérature et psychiatrie après « l’âge d’or de l’aliénisme » ( Castel 1977) en examinant des moments d’observation et de description mutuelles qui se déroulent entre l’apparition des avant-gardes et l’apogée de l’antipsychiatrie européenne. Faudra-t-il adapter les catégories d’analyse littéraire et d’histoire des savoirs qui ont fait leurs preuves dans l’étude du XIXe siècle lorsqu’il s’agit d’explorer les relations entre l’écriture littéraire et le savoir psychopathologique dans le contexte des bouleversements poétologiques et épistémologiques survenus depuis l’entre-deux-guerres ?
