L’histoire et les sens

Vingt-huitième colloque annuel de la Society for the Study of French History

De l’école des Annales à la phénoménologie, historiens français et intellectuels ont joué un rôle pionnier dans l’exploration et l’interprétation de l’expérience sensible. Nous invitons cette année les chercheurs à soumettre des propositions de communications ou de panels sur ce thème des sens. Cet appel à communication s’adresse à un large éventail d’historiens, ceux dont le travail concerne les cinq sens mais aussi ceux qui étudient le sens sous d’autres formes : sens de l’espace et du temps, sentiment d’appartenance ou sens de la communauté, voire « sixièmes » sens moins immédiatement évidents et tangibles. Les chercheurs, quelle que soit leur période de prédilection, se sont intéressés aux sens comme à des moyens de reconstruire l’expérience vécue du passé, ou de réfléchir à la nature du témoignage historique ou de l’écriture de l’histoire.

African Spatial mobility, colonial memory and patterns of social differentiations

Panel of the African Studies Association of the UK (ASAUK) conference 2014

The aim of this panel is to look at how spatial mobility and the reference to a territorial homeland (‘real’ or ‘imaginary’) influence the processes of appropriation, reappropriation and disapprioriation of colonial memory in the African diasporas. In a context of the liberation of subalterns memories, many authors consider that slavery and colonization have become since the 2000s, the controversial memorial repositories in both Europe and the United States as in Africa. However, processes of selection, denial and invisibility remain, particularly in old European cities. The emergence of new migratory routes, particularly overseas, can sometimes be associated to liberating acts from social actors fleeing multiple discriminations they have experienced or are afraid of in Europe.

The Violence of War

Experiences and Images of Conflict

Although historians dealing with war will inevitably be called to concentrate their attention on violence, often the understanding of how violence itself was perceived, understood, imagined and experienced by combatants and civilians is neglected. Much still needs to be said about how war was shaped by and, in turn, influenced, modern perceptions of violence. Considering war, as John Keegan has put it, first and foremost as ‘a cultural act’, this conference calls attention to the ways in which warfare violence was imagined and understood during the modern era, focusing on the distance between expectations and experiences of war; on the distance between – or coincidence of – ‘imagined’ and the ‘real’ wars. The period considered ranges from the Crimean War to the Second World War and its aftermath.

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?

Colonial geopolitics and local cultures in the Hellenistic and Roman East (IIIrd Century B.C. – IIIrd Century A.D.)

Géopolitique coloniale et cultures locales dans l'Orient hellénistique et romain (IIIe siècle av. J.-C. – IIIe siècle ap. J.-C.)

It seems clear that, in the Greek-speaking regions of the Roman Empire, Hellenistic models (civic, military or institutional) exercised considerable influence over “Italic” colonial projects. Within this field, relations between military colonists and indigenous peoples demand special attention, considering the degree of social, cultural, economic, political and geopolitical transformation brought about by the installation of certain groups upon those lands as a result of the will of the great power(s) that ruled over them. As for the Roman colonization, modern scholars have often described Roman colonies as vectors of Romanization inserted in alien lands, writing that these communities must have functioned as images of a “small Rome.” While the existence of Latin-speaking colonists ruled by a favorable juridical system such as the Ius Italicum cannot be denied, such a reductionist model can no longer be accepted without qualification, especially in the context of the Greek-speaking provinces of the Roman East. The regions of the Eastern Mediterranean world saw the coming of a number of groups of Roman colonists and thus their cultural climate, their agrarian structures and their geopolitical environment changed. The aim of this panel is to explore new research paths based on broader studies in time and space.

Meet the New Gods, Same as the Old Gods? Formulary, Ritual and Status in Hellenistic Ruler Cult

Panel to be held at the Eighth Celtic Conference in Classics

Despite recent and widespread interest in Greek hero and ruler cult, evaluating the processes that lead to the bestowal of cultic honours on Hellenistic sovereigns still remains a controversial matter. Political readings of such honours within the framework of contemporary international diplomacy and euergetic discourse have picked up on polarities widely discussed by previous bibliography, such as "dynastic vs. civic", "living vs. posthumous", etc. Yet the main focus is still limited to a "top-down" perspective, which leaves aside the fascinating dialectics between "private" and "public", or to perhaps phrase this more accurately, between "institutional" and "non-institutional" actors.

Reimagining Modernism, Mapping the Contemporary

Critical Perspectives on Transnationality in Art

A major, two-day international conference reconceptualising modernist artistic practices from a transnational, interdisciplinary perspective. The conference develops a critical perspective on the proliferating discourses of the transnational, considering how they have reshaped the study of modern and contemporary art and the links that are articulated between them. It focuses on scholarship which foregrounds the methodological implications, as well as the historical unfolding, of transnational developments in and between artistic and curatorial practice.

The Cultures of Popular Culture

Biennial conference of the Royal Irish Academy Committee for Modern Languages, Literary and Cultural Studies

Just as the term Popular Culture describes the widest range of practices, Popular Culture Studies cover the most heterogeneous objects. While this very diversity makes it exciting as a research field, it presents a challenge in terms of methods and approaches. To promote scientific exchanges at international level, Popular Culture Studies need elements of comparability and theorization. The biennial conference of the Royal Irish Academy, hosted by the School of Modern Languages at Queen’s University Belfast, intends to offer a forum for discussion between academics, teaching and researching in the fields of Popular Cultures. It will consider the benefits of studying Popular Cultures in Modern Languages Studies and seek to map current areas of research. It presents a distinctive opportunity to discuss corpora and contrast approaches.

Sessions Art-Hist International Medieval Congress Leeds 2014

Autour de la notion d'art impérial

Le thème du prochain congrès international de médiévistique de Leeds, en 2014, a pour thème « Empire ». Le projet Art-Hist aimerait à cette occasion explorer le thème de l'art impérial à travers le titre suivant : “Images et formes impériales: approches historiques et historiographiques » afin de tenter de répondre à quelques questions : a-t-il existé un « art impérial » aux époques carolingiennes et ottoniennes ? Commet peut-il être défini ? Dans l'art médiéval, comment est suggérée ou évoquée l'idée d'empire ? Comment fonctionne dans l'oeuvre d'art ce principe d'évocation ? Comment les empereurs ont-ils utilisé ces formes et ces images pour la construction de leur pouvoir et de leur histoire ?
