    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.

    This symposium focuses on new perspectives and visions that have been developed over the last 50 years within Indigenous studies and related fields when looking at Indigenous land and land rights, Indigenous political and social sovereignty, extractivism and environmental destruction, oppressive sex/gender systems, and for describing the repercussions of settler colonialism in North America, especially in narrative representations.

    Revolutionary cosmopolitanism. Transnational migration and political activism, 1815-1848

    The period 1815-1848 not only was characterized by several waves of revolution in Europe, the Atlantic world and beyond, but also by large movements of migration. Although these migrations can often be associated with political uprisings, only few connections have been made between the study of migration history and history of political thought and practices. This one-day conference aims to bring together these different strands of research and to discuss how experiences of migration and cross-boundary mobility contributed to the formation of common revolutionary cultures in the period 1815-1848.

    Locating medical television

    The televisual spaces of medicine and health in the 20th Century

    Medical television programmes, across their history, have had specific relationships to places and spaces. On the one level, they have represented medical and health places: consulting rooms, hospitals, the home, community spaces, public health infrastructures and the rest. As television-producers have represented these places, there has been an interaction with the developing capabilities of television technologies and grammars. Moreover, producers have borrowed their imaginaries of medical and health places from other media (film, photographs, museum displays etc.) and integrated, adjusted and reformulated them into their work.

    Music and Political Democratisation in Late Twentieth Century

    This event aims to innovatively question how musical practices formed ways of imagining democracy in the democratic transitions that took place after Portugal’s ‘Carnation Revolution’ in 1974 – what Huntington (1991) called the ‘third wave’ of democratisation, which involves more than 60 countries throughout Europe, Latin America, Asia, and Africa. Rather than studying music’s diverse deployments within these political contexts (music ‘in’ transitions to democracy), these study days place the emphasis upon ways in which music embodies democratisation processes and participates in the wider social struggle to define freedom and equality for the post-authoritarian era (hence the ‘and’ in the title of the event).

    L'administration publique déconnectée ? Perte du lien citoyen et rupture de la chaîne des valeurs publiques

    L’actualité politique nous invite à interroger les déconnexions au sein de la chaîne des valeurs publiques. Quelles sont les manifestations et les causes d’une « administration déconnectée » ? Comment rencontrer les défis concomitants de l’action des gouvernements : (a) la difficulté de produire par l’action publique des effets socio-économiques justes, effectifs et perçus comme tels par les citoyens et (b) la difficulté à créer des boucles de rétroaction efficaces avec les usagers, les citoyens et l’opinion publique ?

    Dispossession: Agency, ecology and theatrical reality

    TaPRA Theatre, Performance and Philosophy Working Group

    In Ursula Le Guin’s 1974 novel The Dispossessed: An Ambiguous Utopia, children are educated to engage only with what interests others; the opposite is considered self-indulgence, condemned as “egoizing”. The disowning of any idea of the self is considered a virtue, as is the ability to speak the language of others. Le Guin’s novel fictionalises a common narrative in processes of 20th and early 21st century art: the withdrawal of the self. In relation to concurrent processes that reclaim agency for those who are already dispossessed, that call for the legitimisation of systematically marginalised voices, is the withdrawal of the self merely a privilege? How might wilful dispossession and agency be related through difference, as interconnected transitions of power, in such a way that reveals theatricality in the construction of reality?

    Exploring ‘francophone’ environmental justice approaches

    Anglo-american and francophone environmental justice approaches have largely evolved in parallel, both conceptually and politically. While anglophone EJ scholars have recently called for enlarging the conceptual underpinnings of environmental justice studies, ‘francophone’ influences have largely remained a blind spot in the literature. This panel focusses on the distinctiveness (or lack thereof) of French/francophone approaches to environmental justice. We hope to move this conversation forward by establishing cross-Channel connections between academic environmental justice networks in the UK and in France.

    Music and Democracy: beyond Metaphors and Idealization

    This study day aims to interrogate the experimental and novel socialities, imagined communities and social and institutional conditions summoned into being by 'democratic' forms of music-making: What is the nature of a 'democratic ideal' in music (or art-making more widely)? What is achieved, politically, by rethinking the way in which music is made? When does such rethinking affect the wider domain of social relations, and when does it not? If democratic music-making can help with the wider democratisation of social life, how does it do so? When and how is ‘democratic' music more than just a metaphor?

    Monarchie et modernité depuis 1500

    Si l’histoire de l’Europe est essentiellement celle d’États monarchiques, les monarchies encore en place au lendemain de la seconde Guerre mondiale ne ressemblent plus guère à celles qui régissaient le continent à la fin du Moyen Âge. L’époque contemporaine a transformé la monarchie comme état de fait en une opinion, dans le même mouvement qui faisait basculer un monde marqué par l’omniprésence du sacré vers un autre marqué par celle du profane. Les désignants ont pu demeurer inchangés – tout comme se sont perpétués familles, domaines et résidences princières -, mais leur sens s’est modifié en profondeur au fil des siècles et au gré des pays, transformant les mécanismes et les fonctions du pouvoir monarchique comme sa substance même.

    Stages of Utopia and Dissent, 50 years on...

    15 May 1968: the Odeon theatre in Paris is occupied by students and becomes the insurgent headquarters where every night militants recount the days' action in occupied factories to an audience of people camping in the auditorium. Youth rebellion was never as mythologised as that of the French students’ fight against institutional oppression. The effects were felt across the Channel, too – but the nature of those effects was, and remains, disputed. 50 years on… where are we? What remains of autogestion and emancipatory education? What remains of theatre inventiveness and sedition? What remains of a need for participatory audiences? What remains of utopia and dissent?

    Global '68

    1968 fut une année de luttes, d’insurrections, d’offensives et de manifestations contre le capitalisme et l’impérialisme dont la guerre du Viêt Nam fut l’épicentre. La démocratie, l’égalité et l’émancipation y gagnèrent mais ces luttes rencontrèrent aussi une répression brutale et meurtrière. Des récits révisionnistes ont cherché à effacer la violence policière et la mort de combattants, à estomper le rôle des ouvriers, des femmes, des étudiants et des peuples autochtones, et à éliminer l’importance de l’anti-Américanisme comme de l’anti-impérialisme et de l’anticapitalisme, ainsi que les profondes influences qu’eurent ces mouvements sur les guerres de libération en Algérie, en Amérique Latine et au Viêt Nam.

    Reaching/Outreaching

    TaPRA Theatre, Performance and Philosophy Research Event

    In On Being Included, Sara Ahmed argues that institutional commitments to diversity may be considered “non-performatives”: they do not bring about what they name. Institutions run diversity workshops and committees, outreach programmes and ‘participatory’ or ‘inclusive’ agendas, but where does the gesture stop, and where does it begin? How may we understand the choreography and the dramaturgy of institutional outreaching? How can we begin to detour this language so as to rethink the role of the university – and of artistic practice – in public life today? Does the university have a role to play in public life, and what might that be? Does this equate with ‘outreach’? What is the relationship between artistic practice and what may be termed ‘creative research’?

    Dialectics of Dread and Refuge

    Theatre, Performance and Philosophy Working Group (TaPRA Conference)

    In A Grammar of the Multitude, Paolo Virno discriminates between the Kantian view of the dialectic of dread and refuge, which is based on a distinction between particular danger and absolute danger (also articulated by Heidegger through the distinction between fear and anguish) and the collapse of this distinction in the post-Fordist world, in which "the dividing line between fear and anguish, between relative dread and absolute dread, is precisely what has failed." (Virno 2004, 32) If post-Fordist institutions rely on a culture of pervasive dread – manifest as fear and anxiety – how do we resist this nearly intangible culture today? Arguably, we are moving beyond the sort of entrenched paralysis Virno speaks of, towards a new sort of political breakthrough, a manner of imagining life not determined by institutional cultures of fear and anxiety. Yet much thinking needs still to be done around the ways in which we engage in concerted resistance: do we fight within institutional walls – and if so, how do we resist systems of perpetual visibilisation – the gaze of securitization that renders us so exposed? What does this fight look like? Do we exit – and if so, where to? Is there a new underground?

    Between and Beyond

    Transnational Networks and the British Empire (Ca. 18-20th centuries)

    This workshop intends to bring together research scholars of history and affiliated fields working on transnational networks fostered through the British Empire. We wish to focus on how certain forms of the “empire”, the “colony”, and the “outside” mutually constituted each other. Such an approach, we believe, could illumine the dense transnational convergences that shape the political, the economic, the social, and the cultural in various locations simultaneously.
