  Écrire le désert

  Enjeux, sources, analyses

  Comment écrit-on l’histoire du désert ? Et de quel désert s’agit-il, en fonction de quelle aire culturelle ? Alors que les études consacrées aux espaces sahariens ont pris de nouvelles directions ces dernières années – notamment autour de questions négligées auparavant telles que la mobilité ou les réseaux  et l’émergence de nouvelles identités sahariennes à la suite des décolonisations, ou dans le cadre de nouvelles explorations des relations entre colonisés et colonisateurs, ce colloque a pour ambition de créer un espace de réflexion autour du matériau fondamental de toute recherche académique : d’un côté les archives qui nourrissent le travail du chercheur, et de l’autre les questions autour desquelles s’articule son enquête.

  Innovation, Invention and Memory in Africa

  IV Cham international conference, Lisbon, July 2019

  The Portuguese Centre for Humanities (CHAM) is an inter-University research unit of the Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas, Universidade NOVA de Lisboa and of the Universidade dos Açores, funded by the Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia. CHAM’s team includes researchers from different disciplinary fields (Archaeology, Art History, Heritage, Literature, Philosophy and History of ideas), different domains of History (Economic, Cultural, Political, Social, Religious, History of Science and History of books and reading practices) and specialists from various geographic spaces. From 2015 to 2020, CHAM’s strategic project will focus on “frontiers”. This multi-disciplinary project considers frontiers as limits that distinguished, throughout history, a plurality of societies and cultures, but also as social and cultural constructs that promoted communication and interaction.

  "Lesbian"/Female Same-Sex Sexualities in Africa

  Special Issue of the Journal of Lesbian Studies

  The multiple configurations of same-sex practices and relationships across the African continent, alongside the problematic notion of homosexual, “lesbian,” and “queer” identities in the African context, have been addressed by various scholarly publications in the past couple of decades. Yet same-sex interactions, relationships, and politics between African women have not garnered significant attention either in feminist/queer studies or in African studies, and remain largely unrepresented in academic writings. This special issue of the Journal of Lesbian Studies proposes to fill this scholarly gap by exploring this topic from a variety of cultural and disciplinary perspectives. Contributions by scholars on the African continent are particularly welcome.
