Language and knowledge. Multidisciplinary declensions in French

Si le français ne saurait à plusieurs titres endosser le rôle et le statut de lingua franca, il n’en demeure pas moins un atout et un moteur, parfois surprenants, pour la pensée, la création, l’interprétation, la recherche d’actualité et l’approche de l’altérité. Comment alors « définir la contribution de l’école à une gestion profitable des formes scolaires de contacts avec l’altérité sociétale » ? (Beacco 2018). Quel statut et quelle fortune pour les sections européennes dans les écoles et l’enseignement de langues aux spécialistes d’autres disciplines (LANSAD) dans les formations d’enseignement supérieur ? S’agit-il de valoriser aujourd’hui, plus que jamais, ce potentiel pour la diffusion du français et de remplir ce « réservoir de francophonie et de francophilie » (Beacco 2016 : 43) ?

Queering Friendship | citizenship, care and choice

Intimate Final Conference

Contrary to individualization theories that suggest the impoverishment of human relationships, theories of relationality recognize the increasing centrality of informal networks of solidarity and care. In this debate, friendship plays a fundamental role. The mutual implications of intimacy and citizenship need to be addressed, exploring the extent to which issues of LGBTQ friendship matter (or not) in being recognized as citizens. The centrality of friendship is even more striking when considering personal lives of trans and non-binary people, but also lesbian women, gay men and bisexual people, LGBTQ migrants and other intersecting, vulnerable groups. In particular, the way transgender people actively provide and receive different care between friends offers invaluable contributions to political debates and conceptual discussions around friendship and care as a key aspect of LGBTQ everyday life. Unveiling the richness of the blurred spaces of intimacy, the ways in which LGBTQ people produce alternatives to family-based forms of cohabitation are also of critical importance. LGBTQ lived experiences further contribute to destabilizing the family/friends and public/private binaries, whilst challenging heterocisnormative expectations about who legitimately belongs to the intimate sphere and who remains excluded and/or invisible.

Na era da “pós-verdade”? Esfera pública, cidadania e qualidade da democracia no Portugal contemporâneo

X Congresso português de sociologia

A Sociologia Portuguesa tem um papel a desempenhar na análise das emergentes reconfigurações da esfera pública, particularmente no que se refere à centralidade dos comportamentos, atitudes e opiniões construídos no e pelo ciberespaço, embora com intensas repercussões offline, abarcando o domínio do que comummente se apelida de “redes sociais”. Em certa medida, importa perceber as metamorfoses da sociedade da informação e do conhecimento, particularmente quando se disseminam práticas sociais assentes na dissociação entre os protocolos de construção dos factos e a ductilidade epidérmica das opiniões e das emoções, erigidas, tantas vezes, em critério único de relevância argumentativa.

Publication of books in e-book format

Centro Interdisciplinar de História, Culturas e Sociedades (CIDEHUS) has a collection of books with peer review: Biblioteca: Estudos e Colóquios – intended to the publication of monographic works. This collection has an international scientific committee and an editorial committee, in addition to an adviser. Every year, this collection makes an open call to the academic community in general and not only to the members of CIDEHUS for publication purposes. This is the 2018 call. The works, however, will almost assuredly only be published in 2019.

Encounters, Rights, and Sovereignty in the Iberian empires (15th-19th centuries)

How did the Iberian monarchies conceive, if they did so, the rights of native populations in their decision-making processes and in their juridical architecture? With what tools and with what objectives did the Iberian crowns regulate the encounters and relations between native and European populations? How did colonial encounters influence the political, theological and cultural discussion on the rights of peoples, on the rights of ‘others’, and even on human rights? How did these relations influence the gradual definition of borders and frontiers in colonial territories? How did colonial institutions and legal regulations relate with the political and economic objectives of both empire-building processes? ...

The theme of touch in medicine - literature and art

Xe rendez-vous de la critique

Faisant suite à « Maux écrits, mots vécus. Traitements littéraires de la maladie » et à « Santé et bien-être à l’épreuve de la littérature », nous proposons d’interroger le thème du toucher au croisement de la littérature et des arts et de la médecine, l’appréhender d’un point de vue historique, symbolique et social, dans ses dimensions physique (le kinesthésique) et communicable à autrui (le kinésique). Si la question du toucher a de tous temps interpellé les formes et les pratiques, elle se trouve aujourd'hui avivée dans le cadre d’une société digitale qui reconfigure les notions de rapport, de contact, de sensation, et d’expérience. Prégnant dans les arts vivants conférant au corps une place primordiale, le toucher est également associé à la maîtrise d’une technique biomédicale, clinique et relationnelle, sur laquelle pourrons aussi nous pencher.

Glazed Ceramics in Cultural Heritage

GlazeArt2018

The presence of clay objects is one of the foremost symbols of the onset of technology associated to art. Initially decorated with incised, molded or modeled elements, with different colours of clay and pigments, the objects became increasingly sophisticated. The introduction of a glaze amplified the options for more refined decorative solutions, including in architectural integration. But it was with the spread of the majolica (or faïence) technique, low fired tin-glazed earthenware originally developed in Eastern Islamic countries, that Europe developed its most iconic ceramic productions. In the 15^th century potters perfected the production of this specific kind of glazed ceramics and from the kilns of Italy it disseminated to the Low Countries, France, Spain and Portugal in waves of influence that would determine the European ceramic profile. If porcelain is what defines the oriental productions and characterizes the sophistication of the Chinese and Japanese societies, majolica represents the more down-to-earth approach to life that characterizes the aesthetical advancement of European societies.

Dogs in the imagination. Literature, cinema and graphic novels

Depuis l’aube de la création esthétique, dont la scène primitive a lieu dans les cavernes préhistoriques, l’imaginaire humain a incorporé la condition animale, sous ses différentes modalités et ses multiples points de vue. Au long des siècles, il révèle la présence constante et proéminente de la figure du chien, dont les liens affectifs avec l’humain sont attestés par les découvertes archéologiques préhistoriques, depuis le jour où les premiers loups ou chacals se sont approchés des hommes chasseurs-collecteurs. Il est parfaitement possible de suivre, au long des siècles, l’évolution de la pensée humaine et des mentalités, par l’observation des modalités de figuration du chien non seulement dans les mythes, les légendes, les fables, les églogues, les lais, les contes, les romans, la bande dessinée, les dessins animés, le cinéma, mais aussi dans tout type de discours (philosophique, théologique, scientifique, etc).
