Calls for Papers/Contributions

The ability to publicly negotiate, to have conversation and to utilise political language appears to be in crisis. The politics of now is a politics defined by our inability to speak to one another. Donald Trump, Brexit and Migration have exposed the fissues in our communities and the inability for civil and political leaders to find common ground. Yet, it has never been so easy to talk to one another: the use of Twitter by movements such as Black Lives Matter and #metoo shows the benefits and limitations of a new public sphere.

PRÉSENTATION

La méchanceté et la cruauté se mesurent-elles? Ces formes de violences décrivent des comportements qui prennent leur source chez une personnalité déviante, dangereuse. Interroger ces perversions c’est comprendre les motivations qui initient l’attitude, les amonts de la violence, étant entendu qu’elle peut demeurer à l’état de projet.

Les espaces de sociabilité au cours du long dix-huitième siècle (1650-1850) en Europe et dans les empires coloniaux : approches historiques et perspectives actuelles

An interdisciplinary conference on the early modern period is well established at Durham, first as a biennial conference on The Seventeenth-Century, and more recently as a broader Early Modern event. The 2019 Durham Early Modern Studies Conference aims to build on this tradition, establishing an annual conference which will offer a broad and inclusive interdisciplinary forum for the discussion of the period c.1450 to c.1800. We therefore welcome proposals for panels, strands and seminars from scholars interested in any aspect of the early modern period.
