    The Aggressor: Self-perception and External Perception of an Actor Between Nations - PhD positions

    The Department of History at Heidelberg University and the Faculty of History at the Ruhr University Bochum invite applications for five doctoral positions (part-time: 65%) to be filled from the winter 2023/24 within in the framework of the international research project “The Aggressor: Self-perception and External Perception of an Actor Between Nations”. The interdisciplinary project investigates the identity-forming construction of national enemy images across Europe, which are shaped by aggressors from neighboring countries. It systematizes and compares the perception and interpretation of particular enemy actors based on historical case studies, focusing on their discursive construction and changing significance in the politics of memory.

    The visionary drawing and its knowledge: artists’ diagrams

    If ever there was a graphic line that carried the desire to visualise the invisible, it is the diagram. This workshop aims to examine the way in which artists used diagrams in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. By favouring case studies, it aims to renew the study of artists’ and writers’ diagrams that have already been identified and to bring to light previously unidentified artistic works, in order to understand how they function as images and thought processes, as well as their relationship to the scientific modes of visualisation of their time.

    Refocusing on Roman provincial society

    Forms of coexistence and distinction in Rome's western provinces

    L’Association pour l’archéologie romaine en Suisse (ARS) organise un colloque intitulé « La société provinciale romaine en question - Formes de coexistence et de distinction dans les provinces occidentales de Rome ». Sur ce thème longtemps réservé aux historiens et aux épigraphistes, l’archéologie pose un regard nouveau : quels indices matériels permettent l’identification de l’ordre social, tant à l’échelle du territoire, du site, que de l’individu ? C’est à ces questionnements essentiels que cette rencontre scientifique propose de répondre - ou du moins d’apporter quelques pistes de réflexion. 25 chercheuses et chercheurs originaires de Suisse, d’Allemagne, d’Autriche, de France, d’Espagne, du Royaume-Uni et des États-Unis sont attendus pour ces deux journées qui s’annoncent fructueuses.

    The Art Museum in the Digital Age

    The Belvedere Research Center is continuing its conference series on the digital transformation of art museums with its fifth event on the topic. While the 2022 conference challenged binary concepts such as analog/ digital, this year’s event critically examines the imagined cultural metaverse. In four thematic online sessions and an on-site workshop, the lectures deal with the immersive experiences of virtuality and reality, cultural heritage data, value discourse surrounding the metaverse and NFTs, and self-perception and the social role of museums.

    The Myth of Pentecost: literature, translation, theory, arts

    While there are countless studies devoted to the readings, representations and interpretations of the biblical myth of the Tower of Babel (Genesis 11:1-9), the rival narrative of the “miracle” of Pentecost (Acts 2:1-4) and its reception have received much less attention. This applies both to the exegesis of the Bible text and to its various adaptations in literature, art, theory and translate on studies. While the myth of Babel has generally given rise to pessimistic conceptions of linguistic diversity, the episode of the “tongues of fire” descending on the Apostles, transforming them into universal translators-interpreters, capable of speaking and being heard in languages they have not learned, suggests a different vision of multilingualism, language, meaning, or translatability.

    Knowledge productions and their diffusion in Protohistoric societies: comparative and multidisciplinary approaches

    This international symposium brings together transdisciplinary researchers in order to renew the outlook on European Protohistory. Protohistoric societies having left few texts, can sites or artefacts tell us about the immaterial production of knowledge? Recent researches on comparatism, in archaeoastronomy, ethnomathematics, paleopathology or bioarchaeology, show that these societies produced knowledge and transmitted it, raising the question of the exchange of this knowledge and technologies. The texts produced by the contemporaries of the Celts show a complex and codified culture, corroborated by the found artefacts. Our gaze must therefore depart from a disciplinary compartmentalization, researches combining archaeology, astronomy, artificial intelligence, mathematics, provide interesting answers on this question.

    The Art Museum in the Digital Age

    The Belvedere Research Center continues its conference series on digital transformation of art museums with its fifth anniversary event on this crucial subject. The focus of this event is on the metaverse, an embodied virtual-reality experience, and its connection to cultural institutions. The aim of our forthcoming conference is to give an initial impetus for critical examination of the metaverse in the cultural field. We seek to stimulate discussion about the position of cultural institutions in the metaverse. What should an art museum in the metaverse look like? What role should it play?

    Reading the soil in archaeology: field practice and interdisciplinary perspectives

    Soil features have been at the heart of archaeological questioning for several years, stimulated in particular by the work carried out in preventive archaeology. Their identification, particularly in the field, remains a source of new data and new approaches. Their interpretation is becoming an indispensable step in the archaeological research and can, for certain periods, play a central role. The symposium aims to promote the interdisciplinary reading of the soil component in field archaeology, relying in particular on the contribution of earth sciences in general.

    The Art Museum in the Digital Age

    The Belvedere Research Center is continuing its conference series on the digital transformation of art museums with its fourth event on the topic. During the COVID-19-lockdowns, the digital presence of museums was no longer merely one possible extension of exhibition spaces, but rather the only way to reach the public. While our conference in 2021 focused on the crisis-related (re)turn to one’s own collections, this time it shifts to questions beyond binary concepts, such as media specificity, hybridity, and mixed reality. In five thematic blocks, the lectures deal with how the digital and the analog can be productively, conceptually, and aesthetically interwoven in a museum setting.

    Critical theories and the challenge of interdisciplinarity

    Ces deux journées d’étude visent à mettre en lumière les travaux en cours de doctorant-e-s et jeunes docteur-e-s allemand-e-s et français-e-s travaillant sur la théorie critique d’un point de vue philosophique mais dans une perspective interdisciplinaire. L’interdisciplinarité est, désormais, sur toutes les lèvres. Mais elle est la plupart du temps évoquée dans un cadre particulier qui ne dit pas son nom : celui du processus de Bologne et de la restructuration néolibérale des universités européennes. Contre ce type d’interdisciplinarité qui se pense en tant qu’accumulation de différents savoirs sans se soucier de la manière de les articuler, nous nous posons la question suivante : comment penser aujourd’hui, grâce à la théorie critique, une interdisciplinarité et pluridisciplinarité qui ne soit pas un flatus vocis formaliste, mais dont l’approche inter- et pluridisciplinaire permet l’esquisse d’une théorie sociale contemporaine véritablement critique ?
