  Teaching Semiotics, from School to University

  Revue de recherches en littératie médiatique multimodale, 17

  The volume 17 of Revue de recherches en littératie médiatique multimodale (R2LMM) proposes to question the way in which the teaching of semiotics is being renewed, from school to university, through the prism of such approaches that give a central place to the learners in semiosis. This issue wishes to draw up a state of the art in these “field semiotics” as they are deployed in school and university teaching contexts. It will question the theoretical stakes, explain the methodological handiworks in the face of the complexity of the field, and raise the ethical stakes that can be posed by the integration of singular subjectivity in educational and pedagogical context.

  The metropolis by the parks

  Dans le cadre de la perspective d’une histoire croisée des métropoles, cette journée d’étude propose de faire dialoguer les histoires du Grand Paris et du Grand Tōkyō autour de questions partagées. Pour interroger l’histoire du Grand Tōkyō dans ses relations au Grand Paris, nous faisons le choix de privilégier un objet métropolitain original et stratégique, le parc urbain, qui permettra d’aborder les dimensions paysagère et environnementale de la fabrique métropolitaine, mais également la question de la croissance urbaine et de ses limites.

  Gender in Slave and Post-Emancipation Societies in Global Contexts

  « Esclavages et Post-Esclavages / Slaveries and Post-Slaveries » Journal

  The last two decades have witnessed an uptick in the production of scholarly literature concerning enslaved, emancipated, and free women in slave societies in the Atlantic World. More recently, scholars have also begun to examine femininity and masculinity, nonbinary gender expression, nonnormative sexualities, and the family as lenses through which to understand the making and maintaining of those societies. In this special issue of Esclavages & Post-Esclavages / Slaveries & Post-Slaveries, the editors seek to build on and extend this work by focusing on gender, as an analytical frame and category, in slave and post-emancipation societies beyond and/or in comparison with the Atlantic basin. We aim to understand the influence of Atlantic world scholarship on global slave studies, while also attending to contextual distinctions outside of the Atlantic context.

  La diversité culturelle camerounaise dans les médias : discours, formes et enjeux

  Cameroonian cultural diversity in the medias : discourses, forms and issues

  This book, in an interdisciplinary perspective, would like to question the different discourses and forms of expression of Cameroonian cultural diversity in/by the media: traditional media (radio, television, written press, etc.), artistic media (literature, cinema, music …), digital media and social media… Beyond these representations, it is also necessary to analyze the responsibility or appropriation of the plurality of the Cameroonian cultural substrate by these media, their roles in the construction of a national culture / identity or national unity.

  Gender and medicalization

  Il s’agira, au cours de ces deux journées d’interroger les diverses manières dont le genre peut influer sur les processus de médicalisation. Ce colloque nous invite par exemple à considérer l’historicité des processus de médicalisation liés au genre (notamment à travers l’étude des cas de l’hystérie, du bovarysme, de l’homosexualité ou encore de l’avortement). Il vise également à explorer comment les identités de genre se construisent et ou se déconstruisent en partie à travers le recours à des interventions médicales, à questionner le rôle de la médecine dans nos parentalités contemporaines et à mieux comprendre en quoi un organe comme l’utérus ou encore la prostate ont pu particulièrement faire l’objet d’un regard médical complexe.

  The aim of this issue of L'Année sociologique is to offer an overview of current research in the sociology of the arts and culture from the perspective of identities, whether they are denied, claimed, assigned or transgressed by the various members of the observed art worlds—artists, critics, audiences, producers, distributors... All artistic disciplines - music, visual arts, literature, dance, circus, cinema, etc.—are a priori concerned, whether they are studied as such, or combined in the analysis. The article can relate to production, reception and/or mediation.

  Relance et transition(s) : le nouvel âge de l’intégration ?

  As a process without a defined goal, European integration has long progressed through successive attempts to give it a temporary objective: the creation of a customs union, the completion of internal market or the adoption of a single currency. Since the beginning of the century, integration seems to be aimless, dependent on crises (economic, migratory, health, military), against which it asserts itself as a bulwark and a support. However, the Union seems to have found a new ethos, symbolized by the European Green Deal : fighting climate change. The Covid crisis has provided it with the main tool for this fight: the "European Recovery Plan" . The latter is conceived as the main lever for the climate transition, which is considered inseparable from the digital transition. Thus, these twin transitions appear as the new objective of integration and the recovery plan as the method chosen to achieve it. The Association française d’études européennes (AFEE) 2023 Congress intends to take stock of the first years of implementation of the recovery plan to measure its impact on the integration process.

  Urban Images in African Contexts

  In this special section, we seek to reimagine imagetic and urban practices and representations of the African continent, articulating two main fields, the visual and the urban. Here we want to reunite research that discouses discourses, imaginaries, representations, figurations, and politics about different African cities. Here we understand "images" in a broad sense, encompassing not only production and reproduction technologies, like photography and film but also virtual and digital, visual arts, and museum expositions. The purpose is not only to extend the debate over the field of the visual in different cities from an anthropological perspective. In this special section, we want to punctuate the implications of the imagens in a diversity of urban processes in the continent, emphasizing the plasticity of its forms and contents, its changes, its ambivalence, and opacity; beyond the debates about gender, agency, power, and resistance.

  Comics Aloud

  "Comicalités" Journal

  Comicalités invites contributions to a special collection about comics as sound objects. The collection will examine how comics can be adapted, remediated and/or transformed into aural works. Drawing on the rich history of audible comics and audio adaptations, we invite researchers from any academic field to explore the affordances and constraints sounds offer to the presentation of this ostensibly visual form. In doing so, we draw on the accounts of comics practitioners such as Jacques Martin and Dennis O’Neil, both of whom have emphasised the importance of sounds in the development of their creative practices.

  The Media and sexual and gender-based violence

  Informing, denouncing, raising awareness

  Ce colloque vise à interroger le rôle des médias dans la fabrication de l’information autour des violences sexistes et sexuelles (VSS) que nous entendons comme « une multiplicité de types d’actes coercitifs, non hiérarchisés, imposés par les hommes pour contrôler les femmes ainsi que toutes celles et ceux qui n’appartiennent pas au masculin hégémonique, et ce tout au long de leur vie ». Nous attendons des propositions émanant de différentes disciplines : sciences de l’information et de la communication, histoire, sociologie, sémiologie, droit, science politique, sciences du langage, et plus largement de toute démarche interdisciplinaire à même d’éclairer la production, la circulation et la réception des productions médiatiques portant sur les VSS.

  Under the Sign of Saxo. History, Identity and Nation in the History of the Danes

  In most European countries, the formation of national identity is a phenomenon whose birth is traditionally situated between the 18^th and 19^th centuries. This is also the case for Denmark where the loss of Norway in 1814 and the 1864 defeat to Prussia and its Austrian ally are of particular importance. The premises of this phenomenon are however already perceptible in the Middle Ages, the Gesta Danorum (The History of the Danes), occupying a primordial place in this respect. The symposium intends to study the constitution of a Danish national identity by focusing on Saxo and his work, albeit not exclusively.

  “The personal is geological”: feminisms and ecofeminisms in the Anthropocene

  Sextant - Journal of Interdisciplinary Research on Gender and Sexuality

  Sextant. Journal of interdisciplinary research on gender and sexuality, will dedicate a special issue n°41 (2024) to understand how the feminist political subject is led to be redefined in the Anthropocene. Ecofeminisms allow us to rethink the category of body as an instantiation of the environment and the rest of the living world, in order to inscribe it as a possible encorporation of earthly forces, i.e. of sexuality and reproduction as well as of more-than-human entanglements. The special issue will cross the stakes of an ecofeminist embodiment with the classic stakes of the body in feminism, namely the questions of sexual citizenship, reproduction and sexuality, but also of engaging queer, decolonial and intersectional feminisms to reread their bodily instantiations in order to open to other modalities of embodiment and subjectivation.

  Empire and After: The Empire Strikes Back?

  Ce séminaire se propose de revisiter le fait colonial britannique tout en questionnant son influence et son empreinte sur les sociétés anciennement coloniales autant que sur la société britannique contemporaine dans une perspective politique, économique et sociale. L’Empire britannique y occupera une place centrale mais pas exclusive puisque les empires coloniaux constituent des ensembles composites et hétérogènes dont la spécificité ne peut être appréhendée que par la comparaison. L’Empire sera donc étudié au sens large pour inclure l’Empire formel et l’Empire informel, les territoires sous administration directe autant que les territoires sous administration indirecte, en passant par les simples réseaux d’influence à l’œuvre du XVIII^e siècle jusqu’à la décolonisation et au-delà, dans le contexte du Commonwealth.
