Un Duchamp peut en cacher un autre. Jeux de mots et d’images

A Duchamp can hide another: Playing with words and images

This workshop will bring together critical contributions from the human and social sciences, and aims to grasp through his playing with words and images what Marcel Duchamp took pains to hide, or what was at stake in his games of hide-and-seek with the viewers who “make the work”.

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.

Anti-colonial solidarities: Navigating literary coresistance

The aim of this conference is to initiate a collective reflection on the relationships that, through literature, forge active resistance to colonial structures. How can the practices that develop around literature (writing, co-writing, rewriting, theoretical studies, translations) constitute spaces of coresistance and solidarity?

Literary paradigms and research perspectives

Ce colloque se propose d’explorer la centralité et la complexité du concept de risque dans la littérature de langue française dès le début du XX^e siècle jusqu’à nos jours. L’initiative s’insère dans le cadre du projet de recherche Déclinaisons du risque : pour une archéologie des imaginaires littéraires des XX^e et XXI^e siècles (PRIN 2022), développé par les équipes de recherche en Littérature française des universités de Turin, Bergame et Naples Federico II. Adoptant une approche interdisciplinaire, le projet vise à mettre en lumière la manière dont le risque — communément étudié dans les sciences exactes et sociales — revêt, dans les pratiques littéraires, la signification d’une incertitude intrinsèque à tout projet créatif.

Praise for the historian’s craft: What's new?

Or historical experience and its epistemological sublimation

Taking the example of Marc Bloch as its starting point, this workshop is not intended as a tribute to the man he was, nor as an exegesis of his work. Rather, it invites us to engage in a kind of role-playing, in which we take up Marc Bloch's question: are we in a position to propose new appraisals for the historian’s craft? This workshop is organized around two major themes: the epistemology of history today, and the experience lived by the professional researcher in troubled times.

Projecting into space: territory(ies), terroirs, landscapes and borders

Ce colloque sera l’occasion pour les jeunes chercheur·euses de réfléchir ensemble aux interactions symboliques entre les individus, les sociétés et l’espace géographique et aux représentations qui y sont associées, dans une orientation résolument interdisciplinaire. Les échanges en marge du colloque seront l’occasion de décloisonner des concepts souvent enfermés dans les « frontières » disciplinaires.

Literature in the face of Collective Blindness

« Post-Scriptum » Journal #40

This issue invites reflections on what remains unseen today. How does literature work to unsettle these zones of invisibility? We aim to explore the power of literary writing: its role in dissolving certainties, in shifting perception, in reshaping what can be felt and understood. How does it bring to light what has been pushed into the margins, what might resurface tomorrow as a source of collective shame? How do writers confront and resist this selective perception, navigating silence and opacity? What literary strategies allow them to be heard, to be taken seriously, without their texts being swallowed by incomprehensibility?

Dancing (with technology)

“Intermediality. History and Theory of the Arts, Literature, and Technologies” no. 48 (Fall 2026)

This issue of Intermediality aims to theorize dance (as genre, practice, and idea) from within historical and contemporary entanglements of bodies, media, affects, and values. We are seeking contributions from scholars, choreographers, technicians, and dancers in either essay format or a more creative form, with a focus on projects that involve dance and today’s new and emergent media, such as virtual or augmented reality (VR/AR), robotics, motion capture technology (mocap), AI applications, and other animative and choreographic interfaces. We especially welcome submissions that engage with disability, critical race, and gender studies, and research-creation approaches. Scholars wishing to focus on earlier historical examples of the intersection of dancing and technology are also encouraged to apply.

Call for papers - Modern

Le 36^e congrès international Hegel vise à fournir une vision « globale » de l’actualité de la philosophie hégélienne et de sa réception dans le monde entier. L’un des objectifs du congrès est donc d’essayer de surmonter les particularismes, tout d’abord d’un point de vue géographique. Le congrès entend interroger à la fois l’image que Hegel a donné, dans ses œuvres et dans ses cours, de l’Afrique, des Amériques, de l’Asie, de l’Océanie et de l’Europe, et la réception de la pensée hégélienne dans le monde. Mais pour parvenir à une vision « globale » de l’actualité de la philosophie hégélienne et de sa réception, il sera indispensable de dépasser les particularismes en termes de contenu également.

The Naturalist’s Wonder: Exploring Nature’s Marvels and Oddities

Zoomathia Conference 2025

Nature is often aberrant, or at least so disconcerting that it would be a form of ignorance not to marvel at it. The nature of animals, like that of plants, « overflows on all sides »(Theophrastus). This call for papers is addressed to all those—historians of science, historians of texts, biologists—who are interested in what Aristotle described as « the non-ordinary order of nature, » in its most disconcerting manifestations. Presentations may focus on motifs of natural strangeness, whether in experience or history, addressing anatomical, physiological, or behavioral aspects, as well as fields such as communication, technical skills, or what is vaguely referred to as the « animal sixth sense. »

Decolonial Studies 2015-2025 – State of the Field: Africas – Americas – Europe

In 2015, the first conference dedicated to decolonial studies was held at Lumière University Lyon 2. Ten years ago, decolonial studies, born in South America, were little known in France. The Toulouse conference, to be held in October 2025, aims to take stock, ten years later, of decolonial studies in European, American, and African spaces (Francophone, Lusophone, and Anglophone).

Fredric Jameson, French

Jameson en France, la France en Jameson : du XIXe siècle à nos jours

Le 22 septembre 2024 est décédé Fredric Jameson, le plus grand penseur marxiste américain de la littérature et de la culture. De nombreux hommages ont été rendus à cet auteur d’une trentaine de livres et de douzaines d’articles, sur la littérature, la psychanalyse, la philosophie, le cinéma… pour ne citer que quelques pôles de sa recherche. Nous souhaiterions marquer l’anniversaire de sa mort par un colloque commémorant son œuvre et se focalisant plus particulièrement sur son rapport aux pensées, aux littératures, et au champ intellectuel français.
