Colloque – Animaux proches, animaux distants : une histoire entre collectifs et individus (de la Préhistoire au XXIe siècle)

Depuis le début des années 2000, l’histoire des animaux a été enrichie par deux grandes approches méthodologiques : d’une part, une démarche centrée sur l’identification et la définition de communautés constituées d’humains et d’autres animaux. De l’autre, une recherche visant à faire émerger des expériences individuelles animales ou des échanges inter-individuels entre humains et non-humains. Cherchant à faire converger ces deux perspectives, notre colloque international et interdisciplinaire propose de privilégier l’étude des relations de proximité et de distance entre humains et autres animaux, de la Préhistoire au XXIe siècle.

Publication – « Rewriting History in the Central Middle Ages, 900–1300 », éd. Emily A. Winkler et C. P. Lewis

How historians in the central Middle Ages rewrote the past to meet the needs of a changing present.

In the Middle Ages, rewriting history was a distinct activity within the larger sphere of historical writing. Rewriting started with existing historical accounts, recasting them into new forms as new stories about the past. Changes in circumstances drove rewriting, encouraging historically literate writers and their patrons to examine their histories anew, to jettison what no longer made sense or was useful, and to supply new material to fill gaps or expand ideas. Writers rewrote not only for the present and future, but also for the past. They curated the past and reorganized its intellectual artifacts, thereby revealing new facets of old history to future eyes.

Rewriting was a defining characteristic of the central Middle Ages (900–1300), distinct both from earlier traditions of universal history and from later traditions of making continuations which left the narrative core intact. Reimagining the past by rewriting happened across genres, in the vernaculars as well as the universal languages of Latin and Greek, and across Europe, west and east. The chapters in this book explore the reasons and methods for rewriting, ranging across the Anglo-Norman realm, France and Flanders, Christian Iberia, Norman Italy and the Mediterranean, Byzantium, and Georgia and Armenia. Together, they show a set of rewriters who made themselves the authorities for their own age.

Emily A. Winkler is Principal Investigator of a research project on medieval historical writing in England and Wales, funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council. She is a Research Fellow at St Edmund Hall and the Faculty of History at the University of Oxford. An historian of medieval thought and writing, she has research interests in responsibility and leadership, conquest and diplomacy, material culture, and emotion and experience.

C. P. Lewis is Research Fellow in the Department of History at King’s College London, and Senior Fellow at the Institute of Historical Research. He has published on English and Welsh history in the central Middle Ages and has edited both Anglo-Norman Studies and Haskins Society Journal. Besides his published articles on the twelfth-century Life of Gruffudd ap Cynan, he has work in hand on the Anglo-Norman historians Orderic Vitalis and William of Malmesbury.

Colloque – Choix des imprimeurs et devenir d’une œuvre. Rencontres interdisciplinaires autour du livre au XVIe siècle

Le colloque « Choix des imprimeurs et devenir d’une œuvre » se veut l’occasion d’étudier la réception des récits médiévaux et le renouveau générique au XVIe siècle. Il réunira des experts de différents champs, qui focaliseront leur réflexion sur le genre littéraire, en empruntant les méthodes de l’histoire du livre et de la bibliographie matérielle, et en les faisant dialoguer avec celles d’autres disciplines, telles que la littérature, la philologie et la linguistique. Les participants analyseront la fortune des œuvres dans l’Europe du XVIe siècle en essayant de déterminer le rôle des passeurs de textes impliqués dans la production et dans le commerce du livre. Les analyses de plusieurs traditions imprimées permettront de révéler différentes habitudes et stratégies éditoriales. Les catalogues, inventaires d’ateliers et autres documents d’archives liés aux libraires et imprimeurs seront explorés afin d’identifier les genres les plus répandus, les succès de librairie et leur devenir tout au long du XVIe siècle. Les choix concernant les pages de titre, les tables des matières, la mise en page, l’emploi de bois, de certains signes typographiques ou encore de formes linguistiques plus ou moins archaïsantes seront également interrogés car ils constituent autant de phénomènes qui permettent de cerner les conventions, les innovations et les évolutions génériques à la fin du Moyen Âge.

Appel à contribution – The Other who listens: Holiness and Preaching to Minorities and Excluded in the Late Middle Ages and Early Modernity

November 3-4, 2022
IV o COLLOQUIUM ON HAGIOGRAPHY

It is the purpose of this IVth Colloquium on Hagiography, convened by the Augustinian Library in Buenos Aires, to be able to reflect on the research in the hagiographic field referring to Saints, Blesseds and venerable ones who have given their testimony of holiness in the midst of the Blessed of the Gospel (Cf. Mt V, 3-12).

Discourses on poverty, minorities and the exclusion of these for various reasons related to religion, gender, ethnic origin, health and life decisions, are highly cultivated nowadays. Following a path of scientific production that began a couple of decades ago, studies related to the social field, cultures, practices of writing and reading, ways of preaching, the practice of power and the hagiographic models, continue to enjoy a vitality from different disciplines, which contribute to the debate and generate the challenge of also providing a living contribution and an analysis of what is happening to us in the present as a society from the academic field.

For this, we invite researchers with work in progress who want to share their contributions from their disciplinary or confessional approaches, within the time frame of the call (From Early Christianity to the 18th century), with special emphasis on those witnesses of the Christian faith. who have been in contact with Judaizing minorities, Moors, excluded for reasons of origin, ethnicity or race, slaves, poor, migrants, etc. Likewise, the modern period includes the possibility of also analyzing the relationship between preaching and holiness with the original cultures of the New World as it was called at that time. In turn, the approach used may include any of the three main aspects of the act of preaching: the preacher as the transmitter of the message, the sermon as an instrumental, documentary and textual reflection of that act, and the audience as the objective, receiver and interpreter of the message. speech. The event will be in Hybrid and/or Virtual format according to the development of the health situation that affects us all.

The rules for presenting papers are similar to those of the publication Bibliotheca Augustiniana ISSN 2469 – 0341, where those that pass peer review will be edited once presented at the Colloquium.

The Abstract submission date is open until Friday, June 24, and the delivery of the final paper on Friday, October 7, 2022.

This allows us to have Abstracts and Final Papers peer reviewed prior to the event. It is suggested to send the abstract in the following way: Title of the work, Author and Academic membership, a text of no more than 250 words and at least four keywords.

The date of the event, as is tradition, will be in the Spring of the Southern Cone, at the beginning of November 2022, on November 3 and 4.

We would like to count on your collaboration, participation and assistance. The dynamics of the Colloquium is following the Liturgical Hours of the day, with a Conference of Terce, one of Median Hour and one of Vespers. The Discussion Tables of the Presentations have 20 minutes of oral presentation per work and about ten minutes of general consultations at the end of each Table, composed of no more than three exhibitors.

We believe that revitalizing hagiographic studies is a good way to generate memory and values in the society that contains us and is a contribution to all of the Humanities.

Publication – Bernhard Zeller, « Diplomatische Studien zu den St. Galler Privaturkunden des frühen Mittelalters (ca. 720-980) »

Bis zum heutigen Tag werden im Stiftsarchiv St. Gallen weit über 800 Urkunden aus der Zeit vor dem Jahr 1000 aufbewahrt. Es ist ein außergewöhnlicher Bestand von Originaldokumenten, der im vorliegenden Buch erstmals einer systematischen diplomatischen Untersuchung unterzogen wird. In den ersten drei Abschnitten des Buches werden grundlegende Aspekte des Urkundenwesens im frühmittelalterlichen Alemannien behandelt sowie ausführlich die äußeren und inneren Merkmale der St. Galler Dokumente (also Schreib- und Beschreibstoffe, Schriftformen, graphische Symbole, Urkundenformen und -formeln) untersucht. Auf dieser formal-diplomatischen Grundanalyse beruhen die folgenden Abschnitte, in denen zuerst die Entwicklung des klösterlichen (St. Galler) Urkundenwesens verfolgt und dann den Spuren von nichtklösterlicher-lokaler Schreibtätigkeit nachgegangen wird. Auf diese Weise werden schrittweise die Koordinaten einer historischen „Urkundenlandschaft“ Alemannien abgesteckt.

Bernhard Zeller hat an der Universität Wien Geschichte und Germanistik studiert, ist Mitglied des Instituts für Österreichische Geschichtsforschung und hat sich 2018 für Mittelalterliche Geschichte und Historische Hilfswissenschaften habilitiert.

Closes: 1st June 2022

This is an exciting opportunity to join our thriving History of Art community and gain valuable teaching and administrative experience at the undergraduate and graduate levels.

The key teaching requirement will be to cover core History of Art departmental courses, including BA courses on theory and methodology. You will also be asked to contribute lectures and guest classes in other departmental courses and to participate in relevant tutorial teaching and supervision.

You will contribute to an academic community that places the highest value on rigorous inquiry and encourages a range of perspectives, experiences, and ideas to inform and stimulate intellectual challenge, engagement, and exchange.

Whilst in post, you will be assigned a mentor, a senior member of the Department or the History Faculty. In addition, the History Faculty provides support for early career and other researchers, including assistance in the preparation and submission of grant and fellowship applications through the Faculty Research Director and Research Development Officer.

The post is fixed term for one year and is tenable from 1st October 2022.

About you

You will have research and teaching interests in the history of art, broadly defined, and will be able to teach courses on the theories and methodologies of art history.  We are particularly interested in candidates who can bring innovation to the way art history is conceived and practiced.

You will be able to inspire and enthuse students and draw on your own research to inform and augment your teaching.

You will have a completed doctorate in a relevant field, or evidence that a doctorate is close to completion.

Applications are particularly welcome from women, from disabled people and from people of Black, Asian and minority ethnic backgrounds, as these groups are currently under-represented in academic posts in Oxford.

Application Process

For an informal discussion about this role, please contact Professor Geoffrey Batchen at geoffrey.batchen@history.ox.ac.uk.

You will be required to complete a supporting statement, setting out how you meet the selection criteria, curriculum vitae and the names and contact details of two referees as part of your online application.

Colloque – Avant l’État. Droit international et pluralisme politico-juridique en Europe, XIIe-XVIIe siècle

Alors que l’État national souverain a longtemps été considéré comme l’acteur exclusif des relations internationales, ce projet a l’ambition de nouer un dialogue entre historiens et historiens du droit pour s’interroger sur le droit international conçu comme le cadre multi-normatif qui régit les relations entre une grande variété d’acteurs. Cette notion nous paraît mieux s’adapter aux traits spécifiques de la constellation politique médiévale et pré-moderne, qui était caractérisée par l’entrelacement de différentes juridictions, fondées sur des liens de dépendance personnelle et sur des relations de sujétion territoriale, par la coexistence d’une pluralité de centres de pouvoir au statut variable et par la répartition de l’autorité politique à différents niveaux. Les thèmes abordés dans les deux rencontres (la première à Rome le 20 septembre 2021 et la deuxième à Lille et Courtrai les 18-19 mai 2022) incluent la guerre, les représailles, la diplomatie, les relations féodales, le droit de la mer, le commerce ou encore les relations avec les juifs et les « infidèles », notre ambition générale étant de faire porter la réflexion sur trois questions transversales : celle des acteurs du droit international ; celle des sources du droit international, qui ne constituait pas à l’époque prémoderne une branche autonome de la science juridique ; celle enfin de la gestion des conflits, en particulier à travers la négociation, la médiation et l’arbitrage.
