Poétique et politique de la ruine au cinéma et au théâtre depuis 1945
L’antiquité a été largement mobilisée en Europe dans l’entre-deux guerres – le classique servant la cause d’un « retour à l’ordre » de plus en plus perçu comme nécessaire après les hérésies avant-gardistes – et elle a été au cœur, grâce à des manipulations inédites orchestrées par le pouvoir, des idéologies fasciste et nazie qui ont mené au désastre de la seconde guerre mondiale et de la Shoah. L’objet premier de ce colloque est d’étudier la manière dont les processus artistiques et les œuvres théâtrales et cinématographiques européennes enregistrent les répercussions historiques et artistiques de ce traumatisme, dans la manière dont elles réinventent l’antiquité, et plus précisément dans la manière dont elles en travaillent les ruines, tant poétiquement que politiquement. Le colloque s’inscrit donc à la fois dans le champ des études de réception de l’antiquité et des études théâtrales et cinématographiques, mais aimerait également pouvoir dialoguer avec l’archéologie, la philosophie esthétique, les sciences politiques, l’anthropologie, la théorie des médias.

Kolloquium - Neuere und Zeitgeschichte
Industrial vigilantism, strikebreaking and patterns of anti-labour violence, 1890s-1930s
The conference is open to multi-disciplinary approaches and to both qualitative and quantitative methodologies. In particular, it will explore the complex relationships between private agencies, semi-public groups, and local and national police authorities. One particular focus will be the development of organizational forms of strike-breaking, notably through the emergence of self- defence groups and community police patrols during or in anticipation of strikes. The conference will also explore the role of ideologies and emotions in the generation of violence, whereby groups felt legitimized in their decisions to defend social order, state authority and economic freedom. Such actions were often simultaneously local as well as national, and national as well as international.

Gender, Women and the Conservative Party, 1880s to the Present
This two-day international conference explores the relationship between women and conservatism since the late 19th century. In the media frenzy and the re-enactment of the visceral political divisions of the 1980s that greeted the death of Margaret Thatcher in April, 2013, it soon became clear that Britain’s first woman Prime Minister was being portrayed as an aberrant figure who had emerged from a party of men. It appeared that the media and the public had not been well enough served by academics in making sense of and contextualizing the Thatcher phenomenon and, more broadly, the paradoxical sexual politics of the Right.

Comment écrire la Grande Guerre ?
Poétiques francophones et anglophones
L'objet de ce colloque international sera d'interroger, à travers des perspectives littéraires, historiques, stylistiques et linguistiques, les littératures de témoignage anglophones et francophones de la Grande Guerre, en éclairant les moyens que mobilisèrent les écrivains pour répondre aux bouleversements occasionnés par le conflit. Une attention particulière sera accordée aux évolutions de la langue, des genres ou encore du personnel romanesque, mais aussi à leurs permanences respectives, tout aussi instructives dans l'optique d'une saisie des enjeux éthiques, esthétiques et politiques de la période.

Beitragsaufruf - Geistesgeschichte
Le siècle de la légèreté : émergences d’un paradigme du XVIIIe siècle français
Au dix-huitième siècle, le concept de légèreté semble envahir tous les domaines des connaissances humaines, de la morale à la physique, des inventions aérostatiques aux créations artistiques. Perpétuant cette image d’un âge léger, depuis le dix-neuvième siècle bourgeois, industrieux mais aussi nostalgique du temps des fêtes galantes, jusqu’à notre époque célébrant la frivolité (et la commercialité) des années de Marie-Antoinette et de Fragonard, le dix-huitième siècle français en sa légèreté n’a jamais cessé de séduire. Ainsi, qu’elle soit l’objet d’une conquête (scientifique, morale, esthétique, etc.) ou de constructions historiques, la légèreté du dix-huitième siècle s’impose comme un paradigme dont il s’agira de soulever les enjeux, dans une perspective critique et historiographique.

Kolloquium - Neuere und Zeitgeschichte
Littérature, espace(s) public(s) et démocratie
The important roles played by literature and by autonomous frameworks of discussion in the formation of a democratic public space, in Europe at the time of the Enlightenment, are well known. How can we, in a now globalized world, rethink the question of possible links between literature and democracy – whether we define the latter as a form of society (the exchange of words and discourses), a problem, or a moment in time? How can we define the place of literature in the public space as it is now configured?

Climat et temps : la science comme culture publique
Communication scientifique et son histoire – III
This conference is the third in a series devoted to historical and contemporary perspectives on the communication of science and technology. Climate and weather provide a particularly rich and challenging case study to complete the conference series. As with other disciplines studied during the previous conferences, the climate sciences are characterised by complexity: in their professional networks; their conceptual models; and the logistics of their large-scale data and computing needs. Yet few modern scientific disciplines attract the same level of public engagement, in both everyday life and passionate debate on the future of the planet. Moreover, their status at the intersection of policy, scientific controversy and the public sphere is not a recent development: the same issues and fault lines ran through meteorology from the 18th-century onwards. Shifting interests within the history of science and the development of environmental history have greatly expanded the field in recent years. The conference will provide an opportunity to reflect on these historiographical developments via a specific focus on the communication of weather and climate from the 18th to the 21st centuries. The conference will address three themes in particular: Commodification of meteorological knowledge, Media, and Historicizing climate history. -

Risk, Welfare and Safety in Europe and North America, c. 1750-2000
The aim of this conference is to take stock of the present by focusing on modern Europe and North America from roughly 1750 onwards. It welcomes historians from all sub-fields (social, medical, cultural, etc.), scholars from other disciplines such as sociology and cultural studies. Risk, welfare and safety have long been sites of historical inquiry. This conference takes this literature as its point of departure, and encourages both general and trans-national appraisals of the history and nature of modern "risk societies", as well as accounts which focus on particular technologies, practices and discourses. In sum, the aim of "Accidents and Emergencies" is to: rethink the history of risk, welfare and safety; encourage a more integrated approach to their empirical study and conceptualisation; open up new historical and sociological perspectives through which we might better grasp the present. -

Pour une histoire comparative de la régulation des risques industriels, XVIIIe-XIXe siècles
If comparison between national or regional contexts has been a driving force for the historiography of the « industrial revolution », and if environmental history has been immediately written on a global scale, the evolution of environmental and risk regulation is often studied according to the national, regional or local scales of the institutions producing the regulations. The aim of this workshop is to invite historians to consider how comparison could advance our understanding of the different ways of regulating risk and environment. -

Puericulture, Biotypology and "Latin" Eugenics in Comparative Context
This One-day Workshop is organised by the History of Race and Eugenics (HRE) Research Group Oxford Brookes University. The study of eugenics and race is currently undergoing a remarkable transformation - one defined by society's need to engage with scientific advances and the ethical dilemmas they raise on the one hand, and the investigation of hitherto neglected case studies on the other. The inclusion and juxtaposition of national and international histories of race and eugenics lies at the heart of this international collaboration that strives to not only yield original and timely research on these neglected national case studies, but to redefine and diversify the overarching debates on these particularly turbulent periods of modern history. -

Nation et mondialisation (2011)
Cycle de conférences de la Maison Française d'Oxford
L'axe de recherche « Nation et mondialisation » a notamment privilégié un programme pluridisciplinaire relatif à l’analyse des élites. D’un point de vue politologique, il concerne l’analyse comparative des représentants politiques au sein des démocraties européennes et d’autre part celle de la symbolique, appréhendée notamment du point de vue des rituels politiques. Dans une perspective davantage sociologique, il ambitionne de favoriser le développement d’études comparatives autour de la question de la distinction élitiste, y compris avec le concours d’historiens ou d’anthropologues susceptibles d’introduire, pertinemment, des dimensions temporelles et culturelles. -

Catholic Intellectuals in France in the mid-20th Century
Following the success of the journée d’étude ‘Engaging with Engagement: French Catholic Thought 1930-50’, held at Magdalen College in May 2010, this conference will continue and extend exploration of different types of French Catholic intellectual engagement during the mid-twentieth century, against the backdrop of the ‘crises’ of civilization of the interwar period through to the war years and beyond. The formation of Catholic identities, in their artistic, philosophical, theological and political manifestations, and the shifting norms and values of political and social commitments in relation to their cultural and theological fault lines, are central to our concerns. -
