Soldiers, prisoners and converts between permeable borders in the Mare Nostrum (16th-18th centuries)

The COST Action “Islamic Legacy: Narratives East, West, South, North of the Mediterranean (1350-1750)” [CA 18129] is launching a call for a conference “Soldiers, prisoners and converts between permeable borders in the Mare Nostrum (16th-18th centuries)”. The event that we are disseminating is being organised within this project, which as the purpose to provide a transnational and interdisciplinary approach capable of overcoming the segmentation that currently characterizes the study of relations between Christianity and Islam in late medieval and early modern Europe and the Mediterranean. We aim to create a network that will help to provide a comprehensive understanding of past relations between Christianity and Islam in the European context through the addressing of three main research problems: otherness, migration and borders.

Cinema and the City

Interdisciplinary perspectives

The conference aims to explore the relationships established between cinema and urban areas. We want to stress the connections woven between cities and cinema, films, fiction and documentaries – important unconventional sources for the understanding of social and cultural contexts. We intend to focus on the modalities used in films to tell stories – through images and speech – concerning cities, territories, and places, residents’ lives in relation to spaces, to buildings, to landscapes, as well as to its urban culture as a whole. The perspective we have chosen for this conference is interdisciplinary and cinema will be considered as a medium to be understood and interpreted in several, possibly comparative, ways.

Beitragsaufruf - Darstellung

In/visible: representation, discourse, practices, “dispositifs”

Interdisciplinary Graduate Conference

How is the materiality of the visible world inscribed in its cultural representations? What are the more or less visible actors and mechanisms in the genesis of a cultural artefact? Should the visible / invisible binomial be considered as an anthropological constant or as the effect of a certain epistemological constellation? To what extent does visibility coincide with power and, therefore, how should one represent the in/visible? These are just some of the questions that cultural studies, in their innate interdisciplinarity and methodological heterogeneity can formulate with respect to the issue.

Peoples and cultures of the world

In this interdisciplinary conference we aim to study different peoples and cultures of the world by taking into account the various ways peoples and cultures define themselves and others, thus shaping their identies. We aim to explore the complex relationships being established between cultural dynamics and identites in their spatial and/or chronological dimensions. We would like to focus on the variety of cultures in the world, on their diversity comparatively studied, but we are also specially inclined to discuss top-down or externally imposed politics and the types of resistance used by natives to escape these hegemonic strategies. We invite papers that analyse peoples and cultures (social communities, ethnic groups, indigenous minorities, etc.) considering their specific features and differences, possibly taking into account the theorizations underlying the construction and deconstruction of colllective identities. In this sense, we are interested in the role played by the scholar analyzing different cultures and their spatial dynamics, often fluid and somewhat controversial according to a political perspective.

The logics of persuasion. Between anthropology and rhetoric

In this conference, we will study the logics of persuasion according to anthropological and rhetorical perspectives, exchanging insights and viewpoints. The question is: how do social sciences make use of rhetorical procedures to be more effective?

Les logiques de la persuasion entre anthropologie et rhétorique

Dans ce colloque nous entendons étudier les logiques de la persuasion dans une perspective anthropologique et rhétorique, en échangeant savoirs et points de vue. Bien que la rhétorique et l’anthropologie soient définies historiquement de manières multiples, elles partagent de fait un présupposé commun à partir duquel on peut entamer une discussion fructueuse : atteindre les individus en utilisant des messages efficaces et persuasifs. Quelle est, aujourd’hui, la valeur particulière de ces messages et de quelles manières sont-ils pris en compte en rhétorique et/ou en anthropologie, ainsi que dans les autres sciences sociales ? Plus spécifiquement, de quelles manières l’anthropologie, ainsi que les autres sciences sociales, se servent de procédures rhétoriques afin d’être plus efficaces ? Est-il possible, somme toute, de faire une anthropologie de la rhétorique et/ou une rhétorique de l’anthropologie ?

L’existence humaine comme terrain

Peut-on considérer l’existence comme un objet d’étude à part entière ? Quand on parle d’existence, qu’est-ce qu’on désigne ? Quels instruments et quelles méthodes peut-on utiliser et à quelles disciplines peut-on avoir recours afin de mieux saisir l’existence ? L’existence dont nous voulons parler, c’est celle des humains. L’existence, n’est-ce pas celle d’individus en particulier ? Comment les observer ? A propos d’existence, est-il pertinent de parler de recherche de terrain ? Dans ce colloque, nous entendons nous focaliser sur l’existence et sur ses composantes possibles afin de répondre à ces quelques interrogations et sans aucun doute à d’autres encore.

Anthropologies of the United States of America

Views from near and from afar

This conference is an interdisciplinary research project intended for scholars from various fields. The aim is to discuss a historically, anthropologically and politically central country: the United States. Is it possible to see the United States as a country to be examined from multiple points of view – both from near and from afar – with particular interest in the current “anthropological” culture, while also paying attention to history and making predictions about the future? Specialists and enthusiasts from various backgrounds are invited to respond from specific perspectives, in order to compare and contrast different interpretations of the “American galaxy”. To this end, both studies of a theoretical nature and case studies are encouraged.

Feeding animals/Eating animals. Theories, Attitudes and Cultural Representations of Nutrition in Ancient and Medieval World

Memoria scientiae 2015

According to ancient biological theories, nutrition is, along with reproduction, one of the functions of the soul shared by men, animals and plants. At the same time, however, eating habits are among the starting points on which differences between humans, animals and plants are culturally built. This means that a transversal biological praxis can be used as an anthropological device, in order to to fix and identify specific boundaries and thresholds, either symbolic or theoretical, between both animality and vegetality on the one hand, and zoosphere and anthroposphere on the other hand.

Islands and borders into modern and contemporary Mediterranean

III international seminar "Itinera. New perpectives on historical and geographical research"

El Seminario de 2015 tiene como hilo conductor los espacios insulares y de frontera en las edades Moderna y Contemporánea, así como las sociedades en que se asientan, en el contexto mediterráneo desde una perspectiva de la larga duración e interdisciplinariedad. El encuentro constituye una ocasión para reflexionar sobre el tema de la frontera como lugar de enccuentro, travesía y tránsito; al igual que sobre el rol de las islas y de las sociedades insulares, bien como frontera, bien como nodo en el seno de una tupida red de transmisión de saberes. La pretensión del Seminario es la de superar, también desde el punto de vista geográfico, el concepto de aislamiento, proponiendo, por el contrario, el de un sistema de islas en el Mediterráneo.

Espaces en action, actions dans l'espace

De quelle manière peut-on définir l'espace ? De quelle manière peut-on définir l'action ? Plutôt que de les envisager séparément, nous voudrions, lors de ce colloque, considérer l'espace et l'action de manière conjointe à partir des limites et des apports que l'un parait offrir à l'autre. L'idée est d'associer les réflexions qui dérivent du spatial turn avec celles des spécialistes qui travaillent plus spécifiquement sur la définition d'agency. Les participants sont toutefois invités à laisser librement interagir ces différentes dimensions avec les perspectives et les instruments qu'ils pensent être les plus adéquats à leur propos. En plus de l'anthropologie (de l'espace, du quotidien, du langage, etc.), nous comptons recevoir des propositions qui s’appuient sur les modèles d'analyse provenant de la linguistique, de la géographie, des études culturelles, de la sémiotique textuelle et de la sémiotique culturelle. Sont encouragées aussi bien des études à caractère théorique que des études de cas.

Identity ideologies, nationalisms, conflicts: Europe 1870-1922

The fifty years that go from the Franco-Prussian War to the end of the Great War and the advent of fascism in Italy (early and precursor totalitarian swing in post-war Europe) marks a new phase in representing the ideology of the ‘nation’ and the ‘nature of peoples’. The cultural processes which, between 18^th and 19^th centuries, had been used as consistent ideological repertoire for the political foundation of modern European nations, supported from the second half of the 19^th century, the rapid nationalistic involution of national politics, functional to colonial expansionism and to the ruling continental objectives, but also to withstand and repress internal social conflicts. A cultural and political transition from romantic patriotism to imperialistic nationalism (that which Muarizio Virali has concisely defined “nationalization of patriotism”), for which those that had generally been considered simple differences of character, customs, and social habits between the peoples of nations are transformed into irreconcilable contrasts: the national state is the emanation of a homogeneous people, of a race, and the unshakeable otherness of the foreigner reflects and consolidates this belief. Making use of the instruments provided by disciplines such as socio-psychology, social anthropology, biology, social Darwinism, and with the approximate simplifications of those like Gobineau, Chamberlain, Nordau, Langbehn etc., it is believed that the character of peoples may be defined and thus mark national identities within an all absorbing viewpoint.

Les espaces touristiques

Entre pratiques et théories

In our conference we intend to question the modalities according to which tourist spaces are lived, analyzed and interpreted. The interventions not only of anthropologists, semioticians and geographers, but also of other specialists, are particularly welcome to examine different tourist phenomena starting from the perspective of space. The fundamental principle upon which we wish to base our interrogation is founded on a precise anthropological conception of space. Besides being an abstract concept, in our perspective space constitutes an active element of cultural modeling: space is not a neutral container within which human actions are accomplished independently from its cultural shaping, but a real and true meaningful feature contributing to structure human actions and give them sense inside a society. If we follow this hypothesis, the reflection on tourist spaces takes on a particularly decisive role for many disciplines and for the definition of culture(s) in a more and more globalized world.

À qui appartient le tourisme ?

Les savoirs du tourisme entre pratiques et instruments d’analyse

Nous entendons considérer le tourisme comme un véritable observatoire privilégié pour réfléchir sur le monde contemporain, sur des phénomènes complexes tels que la globalisation et la mobilité et, en même temps, sur les fondements des théories aptes à le saisir en soi et comme représentation (des transformations) du « social » et du « culturel ». Ainsi repensé comme ensemble de pratiques qui configurent des formes de savoirs sur l’homme, le tourisme engage indistinctement des disciplines diverses telles que l’anthropologie, la sociologie, la sémiotique, la géographie, l’histoire, etc. Si, naturellement, le tourisme appartient de droit au touriste et à ceux qui le pratiquent, le chercheur a le devoir de se questionner sur la signification que ces pratiques prennent et sur les instruments théoriques capables de traduire ces pratiques en connaissances explicites.

Histoires de vie, témoignages, autobiographies de terrain

Formes d’énonciation et de textualisation

Nous nous interrogerons sur les modalités suivant lesquelles on raconte, collecte et analyse des histoires de vie de l’observé et/ou de l’observateur, du natif et/ou de l’anthropologue. Dans cette perspective, les contributions de spécialistes de disciplines diverses font émerger des points de vue complémentaires sur des catégories centrales dans les sciences de la culture telles que l’objectivation de l’observation et la représentation du dialogue, la figuration de la voix du narrateur et du sujet agent, l’abstraction du métalangage et son efficacité symbolique, le savoir comme produit et le savoir comme procès de la recherche, etc. Un regard interdisciplinaire se révèle être pertinent pour investiguer la valeur (instrumentale et méthodologique) des histoires de vie et, de manière plus générale, pour comparer le savoir de l’anthropologie avec celui d’autres disciplines telles que la linguistique, la sémiotique ou l'histoire.
