Migravit a seculo. Muerte y poder de príncipes en la Europa Medieval
El objetivo del coloquio es el análisis de la muerte como instrumento de poder por parte de las élites (los “príncipes”) medievales, desde los miembros de la realeza o la jerarquía eclesiástica hasta la aristocracia militar o el patriciado urbano. Dado el carácter multidisciplinar escogido, el acercamiento que ofrezcan los ponentes pueden ser de muy diverso tipo, y por tanto también los enfoques de acercamiento; desde perspectivas generales hasta casos particulares, que permitan la comparación en el tiempo y el espacio, pero también establecer la necesaria interrelación desde los diferentes campos de análisis. Por la misma razón, el elenco de ponentes contempla, junto a los miembros del equipo de investigación de MIGRAVIT-SEPULTUS que organiza el coloquio, la presencia de otras relevantes figuras del panorama científico europeo en sus respectivos campos, desde la historia general a la historia del arte, la musicología o la biología, para poder poner en común con ellos los resultados más relevantes de las investigaciones realizadas a lo largo de los tres último años.

Dissent Versus Conformism in the Nordic, Baltic and Black Sea Areas
The tenth annual international conference on Nordic and Baltic Studies in Romania
In the meanwhile, conformism seems to have pervaded larger categories of public in East-Central Europe and beyond and new “illiberal democracies” evolved. A composite of authoritarian leader and godfather have taken the reins of power in the area. Populist parties and movements are on the rise. Resurgent nationalisms are again offered as a substitute to solutions. The refugee crisis lingers on and no common decisions have been adopted within the EU to solve it on the basis of the European values. The EU institutions are in need of reform and decisions on the course of the organization and its future enlargement process are still pending. The conference aims at analyzing two often interrelated phenomena: dissent and conformism.

Péter Esterházy, the a postmodern Hungarian tale of a postmodern Hungarian count
Péter Esterházy, maître incontestable de la prose hongroise contemporaine, s’est éteint en 2016. Depuis Trois anges me surveillent, ses romans figurent parmi les textes les plus importants de la littérature postmoderne et sont disponibles dans l’Hexagone, essentiellement chez Gallimard. Ce colloque international, le premier dans l’espace francophone, a pour objectif de lui rendre hommage en réunissant des spécialistes de l’auteur, des traducteurs, des chercheurs en littérature comparée et des historiens. Articulée autour de quelques axes fondamentaux, comme la narratologie, l’histoire des idées, la traduction et l’intertextualité, la manifestation cherche à porter un regard critique français sur l’œuvre de l’écrivain magyar.

Hungarian cinema, fin de siècle? Histories, sociologies, aesthetics
Le cinéma des années 1960-1980 en Hongrie a fait l'objet de nombreux travaux de recherche sociologiques et historiques. Les deux décennies suivantes ont été moins étudiées, ce que la sensation de rupture provoquée par la chute de l’empire soviétique explique en partie. La journée d'études « Cinéma hongrois, fin de siècle ? Histoires, sociologies, esthétiques (première session : 1980-2000) » vise à dépasser l’idée d’un changement radical et à étudier la manière dont les cinéastes ont anticipé puis accueilli le tournant historique de 1989. Une large place sera donc accordée aux approches sociologiques et historiques de l’art, afin de cerner les modalités du passage des années 1980 aux années 1990. Parallèlement, il s’agira de déterminer ce que l’atmosphère de « fin des temps » et de « fin de l’histoire » qui caractérise cette période a engendré comme mutations et inventions esthétiques.

Female artists in the classical age - illustration, painting, sculpture and engraving
Comment ces artistes sont-elles désignées, et de quelle manière préfèrent-elles se nommer ? Le siècle hésite à se saisir d’expressions pour les qualifier. Quelles sont les conditions de travail et de vie de ces artistes ? De quelles façons apprennent-elles leur art, où peuvent-elles l’exercer et l’exposer, avec qui à leurs côtés ? Quelle est la réception de leur art dans les Salons et les journaux de l’époque, en France et en Europe ? En quelle réputation – nationale et internationale, bonne ou mauvaise – sont-elles ?

Divided memories, shared memories: Poland, Russia, Ukraine
History mirrored in literature and cinema
In Central and Eastern European countries, memorial questions appeared right after the demise of the communist regimes in 1989–1991, revealing long-denied processes. The phenomenon of the rise of repressed memories along with the rewriting of history, and the political uses of the past are noticeable in Poland, Russia, and Ukraine, three countries whose histories are as often shared as their memories are divided. The “memory wars” in which these three states have sometimes been engaged since the end of the 1980s have been the subject of an abundant historiography.

1917-2017: Comparative Looks on the Soviet Artistic Avant-Gardes
The Soviet artistic avant-gardes have been raising a specific interest for a long time. For instance, their multiple practices, their theoretical apparatus, their opuses as well as the influences they exerted have been largely surveyed by the academic world. Ever since the 1990’s a reappraisal of the multiple reuses and reinterpretations of those “avant-gardes” have been carried out. Our international symposium aims to question and put into context that reappraisal and the renewal it induces in the field of scholarly research. The year 2017 as an historical landmark, the centenary of the Russian revolutions, offers a conducive environment for such reflections and thoughts. While evocating various and contradictory narratives, this centenary leads to rethink the vast array of meanings embodied by the revolutionary events as well as to shed a new light on the opuses they produced or lived through.

History, Memory and Reshaping Identity in Post-Communist Literatures
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture Journal, special issue, December 2017
This volume is intended for both scholars and a general readership interested in contemporary aspects of post-communist literatures from East-Central Europe which witness a special relation between History, Memory and reshaped identity (be it personal or collective). Papers are invited to analyze strategies of remembering communism in different types of discourse, from autobiographical recollections to collective representations which re-define the post-traumatic status of the Eastern intellectuals in relation to the "rediscovered" West and their transition dilemmas.

Toward a political culture?
Au sein de l'ensemble des territoires contrôlés par les dynasties angevines, nous proposons d’examiner le personnel chargé des services centraux, la chancellerie, les cours de justice, les chambres des comptes et archives, ou encore le conseil royal ou l’hôtel, tout comme les officiers des cours locales. On s’interrogera sur l’origine, la formation, les réseaux et les carrières de ce personnel, ainsi que sur la genèse institutionnelle de ses offices et charges.

Multiculturalism, interculturality, complex identities: the example of Caucasia
The aim of the symposium is to highlight the treasures of an area that is culturally and historically a kind of multicultural island: the Caucasus. Nizami Ganjavi, for example, is a poet of multiculturalism, and he owes his fame both to his lyricism and to his ethics of peaceful coexistence. The Book of Dede Korkut is another interesting example: it is the result of a meeting of cultures, and it inspired many multicultural artists (poets, dramatists, film-makers). Caucasian multiculturalism is indeed still alive (among the numerous works inspired by the Oghuz epic, one can think of Nabi Hazri’s Dreams and legends, of Altaï Mamedov’s Deli Domrul or of Anar’s Dede Gorgut). The symposium will focus on the relationship between multiculturalism, interculturality and intermediality, as well as on the role of multiculturalism in the field of pedagogy.
