Lifestyles in the Mediterranean
How to change our lifestyles?
La Méditerranée est sans doute une des régions du monde parmi les plus affectées par le réchauffement climatique et les bouleversements de notre écosystème. Ce constat est le point de départ de notre réflexion collective sur les changements de nos modes de vie. Comment vivre ? Sans doute bien différemment, dès aujourd’hui, et plus encore demain, compte tenu des fragilités de longue date du monde méditerranéen. Changer nos modes de vie ? Telle est la question qui servira de fil conducteur au cours des six séances de notre atelier de recherche, en 2020.

Call for papers - Early modern
Following in the footsteps of Fernand Braudel, an increasing number of recent studies show that the Mediterranean basin might be considered as a “borderland”, “borderscape” or “Frontier” suggesting that this area is not strictly a border between Christian and Muslim civilization, but a basin in which the two traditions and cultures meet and overlap, with an extraordinary variety of reactions to the hegemonic practices (acceptance, conflict, refusal, dissent). The aim of this conference is to bring together scholars who will discuss, from different perspectives and with a multidisciplinary approach, the variety of themes (topics) which revolve around the common issue of reflecting the problem of borderlands as a consequence of the encounter between Christendom and Ottoman Empire in the Early modern Mediterranean. The starting point of examination will be images, i.e. the usage of images (pictures, mental images, literary images and other visual representations …) as historical evidence.

Venice, a Mediterranean regional power
Economic, maritime and political perspectives, 1669-1797
This seminar aims to explore the relationship between Venice and the Mediterranean between the loss of Crete, the last major dominion of Venetian maritime empire in 1669, and the end of the Republic in 1797. Through the analysis of economic and commercial exchanges, naval activities and diplomatic/military relations of the Serenissima in the Mediterranean, we aim to discuss the dynamics of transformation and adjustment of the Republic’s new status as a regional power faced with the challenges of an Inner Sea crossed and populated by more powerful and richer competitors.

Late 19th-21st centuries
L'objectif de ce colloque est de proposer une analyse comparée des formes d'internement établies par les métropoles coloniales du Sud de l'Europe (France, Espagne, Italie, Portugal) à leur intérieur et au sein de leurs empires et de les relier aux morphologies des différentes méthodes de réclusion contemporaines visant en particulier les migrants et les réfugiés. L’hypothèse qui sera mise en débat au cours du colloque est que la combinaison de la mise en place de dispositifs de contrôle contraignants avec l’identification de catégories considérées « dangereuses » que les autorités souhaitent limiter dans leur action, crée un système de pouvoir et de contrôle des États sur les populations qui devient paradigmatique avec la consolidation des empires coloniaux modernes au XIXe siècle.

Workshop on sexual violence in modern southern European history
Southern European gender models and the implications of these on the study of sexual violence in the western world are relatively under-theorised within broader narratives of the western subject. This workshop seeks to address this lacuna through an exploration of the intersection of southern European culture – understood through the prism of “unity in diversity” – and sexual violence in the modern period. A thorough comparison of sexual violence within the diverse localities of the European south will allow similarities and differences to emerge, and will help to decentre current emphasis on the English-speaking world within the current historiography on sexual violence.

Photographic archaeology - from excavation to the writing of history
De la fouille à l'écriture de l'Histoire
Cette année, le cycle de conférences dédiée à l’archéologie est pensé en lien avec la photographie et l’exposition de Josef Koudelka, Ruines qui se tient à la Bibliothèque nationale de France du 21 avril au 19 juillet 2020. Ce thème permet à l’artiste de dialoguer avec Alain Schnapp, auteur de Ruines : essai de perspective comparée (2015) et d’une série de conférences Musée du Louvre / ENS « Une histoire universelle des ruines » en 2014. Depuis 30 ans, Josef Koudelka photographie des sites archéologiques du bassin méditerranéen dont certains ont disparu. D’un autre point de vue, la photographie est devenue un partenaire indispensable des fouilles, accompagnant l’archéologue depuis le repérage du site, la documentation du travail de terrain, la révélation d’éléments invisibles à l’œil nu jusqu’à la publication des vues des zones explorées et détruites au courant de la fouille. Au cours de six conférences, des chercheurs et des archéologues témoignent de la pratique photographique sur le terrain et mettent en évidence ce qu’elle apporte à la reconstitution historique.

Greece(s) - Histoire de l'art journal, no 86
Histoire de l'art, no 86
2021 marks the bicentennial of the Greek uprising which resulted, at the end of a long war, in the country’s independence:Greece was thus born as a modern nation while romanticism, particularly in France, made it one of its favorite themes,carrying out out a vibrant philhellenic movement. The commemoration should not, however, cover up that there were andare other Greeces, from antiquity to our own day. The theme of this issue is also given in the plural since the construction of Greek art in the modern era is but one of the phenomena considered here. It is the plurality of constructions of Greecein art which unifies the collection of studies and essays which we envision.

Narrative forms and co-production in Arab cinemas
Norms, constraints, and margins of freedom
Film industry in the Arab world remains generally underdeveloped. Arab countries still depend on international film support funds, mainly European. This puts Arab producers, scriptwriters and filmmakers in a subaltern position in relation to European producers and funders, whose expectations in terms of content as well as narrative and aesthetic forms end up strongly impacting the film creation process. On the other hand, margins of freedom and resistance can be created within this system. This edition of Regards aims at addressing the complex relation between Arab cinemas and international film support funds.

Historiography of the Perception of Islam through Manuscripts, Korans and their Displacement
The aim of this workshop is to approach the question of the relationship between Christianity and Islam through the study of the production, circulation and uses of Arabic manuscripts, and mainly Korans, in the late medieval and early modern Mediterranean Europe. Our assumption is that the Balkans, Italy and the Iberian Peninsula form an axis of circulation which is especially significant for our understanding of the Mediterranean Sea as a comprehensive space of cultural, political and religious contact.

Conference, symposium - Sociology
Otherness and resistance and the challenge of gender in the Mediterranean
Ce colloque a pour ambition de croiser les travaux de chercheur-es et d’artistes issus du pourtour méditerranéen, d’Europe ou d’Amérique du Nord, sur les résistances aux normes familiales et sexuelles engendrées par les crises qui traversent l’espace euro-méditerranéen. Les peuples, au Sud comme au Nord de la Méditerranée, se mobilisent autour des questions d’égalité, de liberté et de démocratie. Leurs revendications troublent les rapports de pouvoir entre les femmes et les hommes, les normes sexuelles et les modèles familiaux. Des analyses sociologiques et historiques permettront de comprendre les logiques d’affrontements et d’accommodements qui sous-tendent ces actes de transgressions ou de résistances dans différents pays.

Urban and architectural identities in Mediterranean cities
Identités urbaines et architecturales dans les villes méditerranéennes
The architectural and urban diversity characterising mediterranean city is inseparable from their identity. It seems clear at that this diversity and multiplicity of different identities shoud be considered as one of the greatest cultural and human values. The coexistence of forms in time and space, the blending of urban and architectural cultures, influences and contaminations, even the contrast and and contradictions of identity that are revealed in the mediterranean urban territory reflect the stratification of the city in its pragmatics implications and its identity meanings. Today, in a context of a competition and attractiveness betwen territories, several mediterranean cities are going through a period of profound changes. Faced with these transformations, the reference to "identity territories" (Troin, 2004) and the ability of the city to build an identity and speared it among the population are called into question.

En s’inscrivant dans la lignée des travaux qui se sont multipliés depuis les années 1990 au sujet des diasporas, ces journées d’étude visent à examiner particulièrement comment de tels groupes se construisent dans le cadre urbain. On entend ici la ville à la fois comme un espace et comme un territoire dans lequel se déploient les stratégies et les perceptions des acteurs, ainsi que comme le lieu où les communautés interagissent entre elles, avec les institutions et avec les autorités locales. Les communications de ces journées permettront de faire se rencontrer la question des diasporas avec deux thématiques actuelles de l’histoire urbaine : l’étude de la répartition et de l’implantation des étrangers en ville d’une part, et celle des usages de l’espace urbain d’autre part. Il s'agira de comprendre, par l’urbain et ses spécificités, comment on aboutit à des identités collectives – parfois souples et négociées, parfois assignées de manière plus autoritaire – propres à ces groupes sociaux qui finissent par se penser et être pensés comme diaspora, voire par être institutionnalisés comme tels.

Conference, symposium - Middle Ages
Women and Violence in the Late Medieval Mediterranean, ca. 1100-1500
A two-days international conference
The last decades have witnessed an increased interest in research on the relationship between women and violence in the Middle Ages, with new works both on female criminality and on women as victims of violence. The contributions of gender theory and feminist criminology have renewed the approached used in this type of research. Nevertheless, many facets of the complex relationship between women and violence in medieval times still await to be explored in depth. This conference aims to understand how far the roots of modern assumptions concerning women and violence may be found in the late medieval Mediterranean, a context of intense cultural elaboration and exchange which many scholars have indicated as the cradle of modern judicial culture. While dialogue across the Mediterranean was constant in the late Middle Ages, occasions for comparative discussion remain rare for modern-day scholars, to the detriment of a deeper understanding of the complexity of many issues. Thus, we encourage specialists of different areas across the Mediterranean (Western Europe, Byzantium, and the Islamic world) to contribute to the discussion. What were the main differences and similarities? How did these change through time? What were the causes for change? Were coexisting assumptions linking femininity and violence conflicting or collaborating?

Citizenship in the north and south of the Mediterranean
Actions, objects, relations: an interdisciplinary perspective
Cet atelier doctoral vise à dégager des pistes pour repenser la citoyenneté en Méditerranée, en désincrustant celle-ci des essentialisations culturelles, des épistémès disciplinaires, et des traditions historiographiques nationales. Il part d’une définition large de la citoyenneté, qui ne se restreint pas à l’obtention d’un statut conditionnant l’exercice de droits politiques, mais qui prend en compte les processus de construction des droits d’accès aux ressources locales (telles que le travail, le logement, l’assistance etc.). En adoptant une perspective interdisciplinaire, ce projet veut faire dialoguer, à partir de terrains géographiques et d’époques différentes, des conditions d’affirmation citoyenne formalisées par l’inégal droit d’accès aux ressources locales.

The Western Mediterranean in the 5th century. The great upheaval?
The 5th century is unequivocally identified as a key moment in the history of the Western Mediterranean, marked in particular by the establishment of the Barbarian kingdoms, the end of the Roman Empire in the West and a new phase of Christianity's expansion. These are all major, if not fundamental, upheavals that have profoundly and lastingly influenced the evolution of this geographical area. Currently data available make it very difficult to form a satisfactory global vision of this century because they are so heterogeneous, dispersed and often diluted in diachronic approaches. From this observation emerges the need to gather, cross-reference and compare the extremely abundant information in order to measure the transformations and the space they affect during the 5th century. An international symposium is undoubtedly the most appropriate tool to approach this issue, given the multiplicity of research teams working in this field and the scope of the geographical framework concerned.
