Purifier, soigner ou guérir ?

Purifier, soigner ou guérir ?
Maladies et lieux religieux de la Méditerranée antique à la Normandie médiévale. Regards croisés

1er – 4 octobre 2014

L’hypothèse formulée par des biologistes américains d’une possible corrélation entre la présence récurrente d’épidémies infectieuses et l’apparition des religions comme facteurs d’entraide et de regroupement humains, invite à réévaluer la place et le rôle des comportements religieux en lien avec les maladies.
Le prochain colloque de Cerisy-la-Salle, organisé par le CRAHAM (Centre de Recherches Archéologiques et Historiques Anciennes et Médiévales) et l'OUEN (Office Universitaire d’Études Normandes) de l'Université de Caen, a pour objet d'effectuer une première synthèse sur l’empreinte des phénomènes religieux dans le traitement des maladies au sein des sociétés antiques et médiévales.
Forte d’une documentation exceptionnelle et de recherches archéologiques et paléopathologiques récentes, la Normandie médiévale offre un terrain d’investigations privilégié. Oser une approche comparatiste suppose de distendre l’espace et la chronologie. Aussi, l’aire géographique parcourue s’ouvre de la Grèce en passant par l’Italie, la Scandinavie, l’Irlande, l’Écosse, le Pays de Galles, jusqu’au monde anglo-normand terme spatial et chronologique de la démarche. Celle-ci s’inscrit dans une « longue durée » qui s’étend du VIIIe siècle avant Jésus-Christ au début du XIIIe siècle de notre ère, acmé de l’éclosion des lieux pieux de la charité chrétienne occidentale.
Quelle est la place géographique et sociale des sanctuaires ? Dans quelle mesure, les sanctuaires participent-ils à la construction religieuse du territoire ? Le processus de médicalisation est-il d’origine religieuse ? La diffusion des savoirs médicaux éclipse-t-elle le religieux ? Quelles continuités et quelles ruptures peut-on déceler entre l’Antiquité et le Moyen Âge ?
Le présent colloque veut rassembler du 1er au 4 octobre 2014, archéologues, anthropologues, paléoanthropologues, linguistes et historiens pour faire le point de nos connaissances et de nos méconnaissances en quatre thèmes :
1. Entre punition et élection : les maladies sont-elles sacrées ?
2. Thérapeutes et mortifères : dieux, saints et rois
3. Typologie, topographie et fonctions des lieux religieux
4. Savoirs médicaux, rites et pratiques de guérison/purification/exorcisme
 
Les projets de communications sont à fournir avant le 1er février 2014

Décrire les cliniques amène à évoquer l’histoire des politiques hospitalières, celle de la mutualité et des congrégations religieuses, l’histoire politique et parlementaire des IVe et Ve Républiques. Dès la Révolution, des établissements privés variés répondent aux besoins croissants d’hospitalisation que l’hôpital public ne peut, ne veut ou ne sait satisfaire. Devenues concurrentes des hôpitaux publics, les cliniques accélèrent leur développement, en particulier grâce à une organisation syndicale efficace qui sait se faire entendre des pouvoirs publics. De ce dialogue émerge le compromis original actuel en France.

BREVETS SUR LES MÉDICAMENTS
Controverses d’hier et d’aujourd’hui


Conférence historique de Maurice Cassier
Sociologue, directeur de recherche au CNRS (France)


Suivie d’une table ronde avec Patrick Durisch, responsable « Santé et accès aux médicaments » de l’ONG La Déclaration de Berne, et Martin Bernhardt, vice-président «Relations with International Institutions » pour l’entreprise pharmaceutique Sanofi. Le procès mené par Novartis en Inde pour obtenir un brevet d’invention sur un médicament a rappelé un débat fondamental: celui du rôle des brevets pour financer la recherche pharmaceutique, et les questions éthiques qu’ils posent pour l’accès aux médicaments. Ce débat est aussi vieux que le système des brevets d’invention, et mérite d’être éclairé historiquement.

Call for Papers: Symposium on Reading and Health in Early Modern Europe, 1500-1800

Medieval and Early Modern Research Group, Newcastle University, United Kingdom 05-06 July 2013
http://www.ncl.ac.uk/niassh/readingandhealth.htm

This symposium will explore how early modern texts engage with the regulation of the body and mind through reading. It will investigate the connections between reading and health and consider how reading was understood as an embodied practice in the period with profound implications for both personal well being and conception of the healthy body politic.

We invite proposals that address the relationship between health and reading in any genre in print or manuscript in any European language. The genres might include medical, scientific, literary, religious, or pedagogical and rhetorical writings. We encourage proposals that recover diverse reading communities and practices and readers/hearers. We also welcome papers that consider problems of evidence: e.g. manuscript marginalia; print paratexts (and directions to readers); visual representations; non-material evidence (voice; gesture; touch).

Topics might include, but are not restricted to:

• Reading as therapeutic (devotional; recreational etc.)
• Reading medical writing
• The physiology of reading
• Reading and well-being
• Reading and disability
• Health and the senses
• Health as a literary theme
• Reading and the healthy body politic (censorship; free speech;
reading communities etc.)

300-word abstracts for 20-minute papers from individuals and panels (3 speakers) to be sent to the conference organisers – Jennifer Richards (jennifer.richards@ncl.ac.uk) and Louise Wilson (elw5@st-andrews.ac.uk).

The deadline for abstracts is Thursday, January 31st, 2013.

Sang et passion au Moyen Âge

Sang et passion au Moyen Âge


salle Duby - MMSH, 5 rue du château de l'horloge
Aix-en-Provence, France (13100)
vendredi 30 novembre 2012


Le sang occupe une place centrale dans la culture médiévale. Symbole de mort lorsqu’il s’échappe du corps en trop grande quantité, il peut être signe de péché et d’horreur, mais également d’alliance, de purification et de rédemption comme en témoignent la force de l’analogie entre le Sang du Christ comme symbole de sa Passion et la place dévolue au sang dans l’anthropologie médiévale des passions humaines. La journée d’étude voudrait envisager sous plusieurs angles ce rapport étroit entre le Sang et la Passion, le sang et les passions en recoupant l’aspect politico-social de la violence, celui religieux de la spiritualité et des représentations mentales, sans oublier la part essentielle des émotions.

Une exposition à financer collectivement

Teaching the body
Artistic Anatomy in the American Academy, from Copley, Rimmer, and Eakins to Contemporary Artists

 
This exhibition tells the story of the study of artistic anatomy in America, from John Singleton Copley to Kiki Smith and others. 

ABOUT ME:
My name is Naomi Slipp and I write about American art and human anatomy. A lot of people ask me why I study medical illustration and artistic anatomy – I don’t really have an answer. I don’t have unfulfilled dreams of being a doctor (art history was not my back-up career) or morbid desires to animate human cadavers á la Dr. Frankenstein. Instead, I think I love anatomical illustrations and works of artistic anatomy because they visualize for us what is going on inside of our own bodies – a mysterious terrain located right inside of us. This is something that artists have tried to express for hundreds of years – that fascinating and uncharted interior that is both complex and beautiful.

MY PROJECT:
As a required facet of my PhD fellowship, I am organizing an exhibition called Teaching the Body: Artistic Anatomy in the American Academy, from Copley, Rimmer, and Eakins to Contemporary Artists, to be held from January 31 - March 31, 2013 at the Boston University Art Gallery. This exhibition tells the story of the study of artistic anatomy in America from the first anatomy text of John Singleton Copley, created in 1756, to the contemporary works of Kiki Smith and others. Over eighty works in the exhibition [many never exhibited before], including drawings, prints, sculptures, paintings, and texts, illustrate the relationship between American art and medicine, a collaboration founded because of their shared interest in the human body and the study of anatomy.
Included in the exhibition are: illustrated anatomical lecture tickets; photographic stereoviews; anatomical sketches, studies, and models; pathological anatomy illustrations; and American anatomy books written for women and children. Fine art created by American artists Harriet Hosmer (1830-1908), Kiki Smith (1954- ), Thomas Eakins (1844-1916), William Rimmer (1816-1879), Hyman Bloom (1913-2009), Frank Duveneck (1848-1919), and many others, along with visual works from the "everyday" including magazines and prints, will illustrate the ways that artists studied artistic anatomy. Perhaps, most important, this exhibition examines both what that study meant for these artists and for the way we, today, think about our own bodies and how they work.
An illustrated catalogue [print run of 1000] comprised of a foreword, two scholarly essays, a series of color plates, an exhibition checklist, and a selected bibliography accompanies the exhibition. This catalogue illustrates many of these works of art for the first time, bringing them to the attention of a broad audience of readers, scholars and students. The first essay was written by one of my colleagues and discusses classical cast collections in nineteenth-century America, while the second essay written by me is about the study of artistic anatomy in American art.
In addition to this catalogue, extensive public programming throughout the duration of the exhibition, including two guest lectures, two guided tours, a scholarly panel/round-table, and daily film screenings, will enhance the scope and visibility of the exhibition. It is my hope that this programming will have a positive impact on the community and create a dialogue between two commonly polarized fields (art and science). We will be initiating collaborative programming with Massachusetts General Hospital, the College of Fine Arts, the BU Medical College & the Center for Science & Medical Journalism at Boston University, and the Massachusetts College of Art & Design. In looking at artworks created by artists and doctors, I hope to unite this diverse audience, bringing together people who are interested in art and those who are interested in medicine for a rich, shared conversation about what it means to occupy, treat & picture our own bodies.

WHAT DO I NEED YOUR HELP WITH?:
An exhibition costs a lot of money and so does a publication. While I have a small budget, I thought big when I began planning the show in the fall of 2010. It quickly became apparent that the benefits of the exhibition – addressing a subject that is unaddressed in scholarship and exhibiting many works that had never been seen before – also meant much higher costs to prepare these artworks for their début. As the costs of borrowing works of art from lenders and institutions mounted and mounted and mounted… I felt my exhibition slip further and further away from my original vision. I made hard decisions and cut half of my budget, applied for grant funding, and got creative with installation and programming costs. Recently, one of our funding sources fell through. We now face a shortfall of approximately $2,500 or 5% of the projected expenses.
This is about the time a friend suggested Kickstarter… So here we are: I am asking you to partner with me and the Boston University Art Gallery to bring Teaching the Body: Artistic Anatomy in the American Academy, from Copley, Rimmer, and Eakins to Contemporary Artists to life. Be a part of this amazing exhibition, fund as much or as little as you can. I believe that this show and the accompanying catalogue deserve to be great but this can only be accomplished with your help. Your donations will defray costs on all ends of the exhibition: publication costs, exhibition costs, & programming costs.
Remember, if we don't make our $2,500 goal, we don't get funded at all. If we happen to raise more than our stated goal, these additional funds will help to expand the catalogue and exhibition programming, and increase our ability to borrow and promote the exhibition. If you have other ideas for rewards or ways to publicize this campaign please message me!

IN RETURN FOR YOUR CONTRIBUTION:
You get that warm fuzzy feeling associated with helping a lowly graduate student, combined with a non-profit academic art gallery, mount a stellar exhibition and produce a beautiful scholarly publication.  If you are looking for the swag too, there are a variety of rewards at several pledge levels. And as a special bonus, everyone, at every pledge level, will receive update emails through the progression of the exhibition, its installation, and the opening!
Thank you for your time and remember: time is limited and every pledge helps. If you like my project, please share it with others.

Les patientes féminines dans l'Angleterre moderne


Female Patients in Early Modern Britain: Gender, Diagnosis, and Treatment


Wendy D. Churchill is Associate Professor in the Department of History, University of New Brunswick, Frederiction, Canada. Her research and publications in the social history of medicine have focussed on the themes of gender, race, and class in the context of early modern Britain and its empire.

This investigation contributes to the existing scholarship on women and medicine in early modern Britain by examining the diagnosis and treatment of female patients by male professional medical practitioners from 1590 to 1740. In order to obtain a clearer understanding of female illness and medicine during this period, this study examines ailments that were specific and unique to female patients as well as illnesses and conditions that afflicted both female and male patients. Through a qualitative and quantitative analysis of practitioners' records and patients' writings - such as casebooks, diaries and letters - an emphasis is placed on medical practice. Despite the prevalence of females amongst many physicians' casebooks and the existence of sex-based differences in the consultations, diagnoses and treatments of patients, there is no evidence to indicate that either the health or the medical care of females was distinctly disadvantaged by the actions of male practitioners. Instead, the diagnoses and treatments of women were premised on a much deeper and more nuanced understanding of the female body than has previously been implied within the historiography. In turn, their awareness and appreciation of the unique features of female anatomy and physiology meant that male practitioners were sympathetic and accommodating to the needs of individual female patients during this pivotal period in British medicine.

Les jours d'histoire de la médecine à Calgary

CFP: History of Medicine Days, Calgary

The deadline for Abstract Submission is January 13, 2013

We are pleased to invite you once again to come to our annual 22nd History of Medicine Days Conference.


THE HISTORY OF MEDICINE DAYS CONFERENCE is an annual two-day, nation-wide conference held at the University of Calgary. The next conference is being held on Friday, March 8th and Saturday, March 9th, 2013.

Undergraduates and early graduate students are invited to submit an abstract for an oral or a poster presentation. We welcome you to give a 10 to 12 minute oral or 2 to 3 minute poster presentation (with additional discussion time afterwards) on the history of medicine and health care. The topics for presentation would cover a wide range and could include areas such as the Classics, the History of Public Health, Nursing, Veterinary Medicine, Human Biology and Neuroscience etc. Prizes will be awarded in different categories and all are invited to join us at the Awards Banquet on the last evening of the conference.

Each student must present an original research attempt with new methodological perspectives on the topic and/or have a critical discussion following the presentation.

If three to four students would like to present together on a related topic, this could be done in a panel form. A suitable discussant will then be identified by the conference organizers to comment upon these particular papers. We ask, however, that presentations and poster abstracts be sent in by one author only, not multiple authors.

An eminent History of Medicine Keynote Speaker, Dr. Guel Russell from the Department of Humanities in Medicine at Texas A & M University (United States) will provide the 2013 keynote address. Her topic will be from the History of Arabic/Islamic Medicine, and the exact lecture title will be provided later with the final conference program.

Le mouvement sourd allemand

From Pathology to Public Sphere: The German Deaf Movement 1848-1914

Ylva Söderfeldt (M.A.) teaches History of Medicine at the University Hospital in Aachen, Germany. Her research tackles the juncture between intellectual and social history, focusing on the history of medicine and disability history.

  • n the late 19th century, the so-called »German Method«, which employed spoken language in deaf education, triumphed all over the Western world. At the same time as deaf German schoolchildren were taught to articulate and read lips, an emancipation movement of signing deaf adults emerged across the German Empire.
    This book tells the story of how deaf people moved from being isolated objects of administration or education, depending on welfare or working in the fields, to becoming an urban middle class collective with claims of self-determination. Main questions addressed in this first comprehensive work on one of the world's oldest movements of disabled people include how deaf organisations emerged, what they fought for, and who was left behind.

Sous le régime de Vichy, 76000 malades mentaux sont morts de faim dans les hôpitaux psychiatriques. Pétain, Darlan et Laval connaissaient les dangers auxquels les fous étaient exposés dès le printemps 1941, et auraient pu leur accorder des suppléments alimentaires. Après la reconnaissance de la complicité active de l'Etat français dans la déportation des Juifs de France, à quand celle de sa responsabilité directe dans la famine ayant sévi dans les hôpitaux psychiatriques ?

La désinstitutionalisation psychiatrique

Deinstitutionalisation and After: Post-War Psychiatry in Global Perspective


Glasgow, UK, 9-10 May 2013 | Submissions deadline: 31 January 2013

Despite the popularity of the history of psychiatry, and twentieth-century psychiatry in particular, little attention has been paid to the history of deinstitutionalisation. Much of the research remains focused on psychiatric hospitals, although the proliferation of institutional forms of mental health care was among the key transformations in 20th-century psychiatry. This conference seeks to redress this imbalance in the historiography of psychiatry by addressing the broader historical context of deinstitutionalisation and how psychiatry and understandings of mental illness changed as a result.

The conference welcomes paper proposals from a broad range of disciplines, such as history, sociology, anthropology, philosophy, psychology and psychiatry. It aims to gather scholars who are working on different national contexts or who adopt a transnational or comparative perspective.

Issues that could be addressed might include, but are not limited to:
Types and characteristics of the mental health care institutions conceived and implemented after the Second World War as alternatives to the psychiatric hospital (e.g. day care centres and out-patient services).
Theoretical models and therapeutic practices of open mental health care services: the strands of biopsychiatry, psychoanalysis and social psychiatry.
Agents of reform: psychiatrists and other mental health care professionals; scientists, such as sociologists and anthropologists; the state; international organisations; contest movements, voluntary and patient groups.
Boundaries and interplay between different professionals in community mental health care, such as psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers and nurses.
Influences, parallels and variances among different paradigms of extra-mural mental health services; international exchanges and the interaction between local and global practices and thinking; the development of international organisations and standards; the impact of politics, ideology and international relations.
The patient experience of desintitutionalisation and of its aftermath and impacts.

Graduate and Postgraduate students are strongly encouraged to submit papers on research in-progress or recently completed studies.

The conference is organised by Despo Kritsotaki, Matthew Smith, Jim Mills and Erin Lux, and is hosted by the University of Strathclyde and the Centre for the Social History of Health and Healthcare (http://www.gcu.ac.uk/cshhh/).

This volume contains the original hieratic text, complete transcription into hieroglyphs, transliteration, English translation, philological apparatus and copiously illustrated medical commentaries for the for the 48 clinical cases of the Edwin Smith Papyrus. It offers an authoritative treatment of the Egyptian text, which clarifies the meaning of many passages from the papyrus and points the way to their correct medical interpretation. The Edwin Smith Papyrus is the first comprehensive trauma treatise in the history of medicine. Not only is the Papyrus the source of numerous anatomical and functional concepts of the nervous system, it is the basis for the development of modern objective clinical thinking, establishing the foundations of modern medicine more than a thousand years before Hippocrates. This volume features an impressive array of medical material that reveals the precise conditions described by the ancient physician and explores the Egyptian contribution to modern diagnostics, clinical practice, and methodology. This publication sets the standard in the presentation of ancient medical documents. It also includes the previously unpublished translation of the papyrus by Edwin Smith himself.

Pour le salut de mon âme

“For the Salvation of my Soulˮ: Women and Wills in Medieval and Early Modern France  


edited by Joëlle Rollo-Koster and Kathryn L. Reyerson

St Andrews, 2012
ISBN 978-1-907548-08-6 [paperback]
ISBN 978-1-907548-09-3 [e-book])

This volume seeks to investigate the testamentary practices of women in medieval and early modern France, examining the experience of a cross-section of the population, from artisans to the elite, in Aix-en-Provence, Avignon, Marseille, Montpellier, La Rochelle, Brittany, and Burgundy. The making of a will was perhaps the single most prominent moment in women’s lives for the assertion of agency. Though constrained to some degree by customary practice and the increasing influence of Roman law, women demonstrated remarkable initiative in the formulation of their last wishes. Wills permitted women to reward friendship and loyalty, to designate universal heirs as major beneficiaries, to stipulate conditions of inheritance so that last wishes were carried out, and, perhaps most importantly, to make pious donations to the Church for the salvation of the testators’ souls. They chose their burial sites and arranged for funeral processions, and they endowed anniversary masses for their souls in perpetuity. Individual testamentary decisions differed, as did spousal strategies, but the reinforcement of family ties, even the assertion of relationship, was possible in wills.

Migration et système de santé vaudois


Taline Garibian & Vincent Barras

Migration et système de santé vaudois
du 19e siècle à nos jours
XVI et 72 pages
[ISBN 978-2-9700640-4-6]
CHF 30.- / € 29

Dans l’histoire sanitaire et médicale de ces cent vingt-cinq dernières années, la question de la migration concerne tout d’abord les médecins étrangers venus se former ou trouver refuge en Suisse, puis les maladies dont on craignait qu’elles ne mettent en péril l’état sanitaire des populations autochtones, enfin les immigrés et les réfugiés. Ces trois moments, conjugués sous la catégorie de l’Autre, se révèlent aujourd’hui fondamentaux pour la médecine contemporaine, reliant les trois éléments du triangle soignant-patient-maladie : l’Autre, source non seulement d’inquiétudes sanitaires et de mesures préventives, mais aussi, et surtout, de richesse culturelle et de réflexion formatrice.

Sur les hémorroïdes

Maimonides: On Hemorrhoids

Moshe ben Maimon, better known as Moses Maimonides, is among the most celebrated rabbis in the history of Judaism, and the author of works in Arabic on many subjects, including influential philosophical and medical treatises. On Hemorrhoids is one of these texts, written for a young man of a noble family who was seeking a regimen to help him treat his hemorrhoids. While not the first to write on this subject, Maimonides's work bears his personal stamp with his emphasis on dietetics, which plays a primary role in so many of his other medical writings.He warns against hastily treating the painful condition with drastic measures such as bleeding and surgery, instead encouraging more cautious treatments like a change in diet. He also advises his patient that if more extreme actions need to be taken, then Maimonides himself must be present.Unlike other modern editions of this important work, this edition of On Hemorrhoids takes into account all the extant Arabic and Judeo-Arabic manuscripts.The book includes critical editions of medieval Hebrew and Latin translations and a glossary of medical terms.

L'oeil et la main

L’œil et la main. Anatomies XVIe-XVIIIe siècles : outils, objets, symboles du savoir




Journée d’études organisée par l’ANR-Philomed et la BIU Santé, le 14 décembre 2012. Ouverte au public, elle se tiendra au 12 rue de l’Ecole de médecine, Paris 6e, Foyer des professeurs.

Renseignements : hcazes@uvic.ca


Pour l’anatomiste, œil et main sont des organes emblématiques de son art : voir pour donner à voir, toucher pour savoir, “démontrer” ce qui est découvert. Outils et objets de l’anatomie, l’œil et la main sont également les symboles de l’humanité (la main selon Anaxagore), de la science, ou encore de la création (l’union parfaite de l’œil et de la main, coordonnés idéalement en une immédiateté de la vision et de la mise en œuvre, définit traditionnellement l’art du peintre ou du sculpteur ). Ces organes représentent aussi, icôniquement, les modes et les statuts du savoir: manuel ou intellectuel, mécanique ou libéral, pratique ou théorique…

À la croisée de l’épistémologie, de l’écriture, de la pratique de la dissection et de l’édition, les études proposées toucheront / regarderont les sens, symboles et enjeux du discours et de la représentation des yeux et mains en anatomie.

Programme :

9h 40 Accueil des participants

10h Jean Céard (Université de Paris-Ouest-Nanterre-La Défense) : “Un homme sans mains est-il encore un homme ?”

11h Anne-France Morand (Université Laval, Québec) : “Éloge de la main chez Galien.”

12h Jacqueline Vons (Université François Rabelais de Tours) : “André Vésale et l’anatomie de la main.”

13h-14h30 Déjeuner

14h30 Hélène Cazes (University of Victoria, Canada) : “Voir et savoir, le spectacle de la dissection selon Charles Estienne et l’art de l’anatomiste.”

15h30 Rafael Mandressi (Centre Alexandre Koyré) : « L’œil et la vérité : l’épistémologie sensorielle de l’anatomie de la Renaissance. »

16h30 Ariane Bayle (Université Jean Moulin-Lyon 3, Centre de recherche : CEDFL) et Michel Jourde (ENS de Lyon, Centre de recherche : CERPHI, UMR 5037) : “Imprimeurs et chirurgiens : le savoir, la main et le bien faire (1530-1580).”

Histoire de la chimie

The 9th International Conference in the History of Chemistry (9ICHC) to be held at Uppsala University 21-23 August, 2013.





CHEMISTRY IN MATERIAL CULTURE
Keynote speakers:
Mary Jo Nye, Oregon State University, USA
Lawrence Principe, Johns Hopkins University, USA

Please check in on the website http://www.9ichc.seto register online and to obtain information about preliminary scientific program, special exhibitions, social program and venue.


This interdisciplinary conference welcomes participants from a range of academic disciplines, including history of science and technology, economic history, cultural heritage research and the STS-field, as well as participants from chemistry, material science and related disciplines who have an interest in contributing to the writing of the history of their fields.Chemistry is the premier science dealing with the material world. From early modern times to the present, chemists have been involved in the analysis and synthesis of materials, in manufacture and industrial production. Engaging in diverse fields such as medicine, metallurgy, dyeing, agriculture, et cetera the science has had an important part in the shaping of the modern world, and was in turn shaped through its interactions with technology and industry. Simultaneously, the chemical laboratory is a site where our concepts of reality may be redefined. Historically, chemists have had an important role in defining the relationship of modern culture with the material world.
The conference will investigate all aspects of the history of alchemy and chemistry in its engagement with material culture, including the chemistry of materials and the philosophy of matter. Papers might address:

* Chemical sites, objects and practices as cultural heritage.
* The philosophical meaning of chemical "materiality".
* Chemical industry and the commodification of chemicals.
* The cultural and economic significance of elements and other
chemical "objects".
* Museum collections of chemical instruments and other
chemistry-related objects.
* Laboratories and experiments.

Proposals for sessions, papers and posters are invited on any of these, or related topics. All submissions should be posted through the form on the conference website http://www.9ichc.se.

Santé, santé mentale et littérature

Call for Papers

Health, Mental Health, and Literature

The Boston College English Graduate Conference seeks abstracts for papers that consider the intersection between health, mental health, and literature.

Considering recent interdisciplinary developments in the field of "medical humanities," we are interested in exploring the ways in which literature and other creative arts have attempted to represent or otherwise understand health, which is so often analyzed from a clinical or scientific perspective. We seek papers that work to synthesize clinical approaches and literary approaches to the mind and body. What can be gained by merging literary and scientific analyses?

Possible topics might include, but are certainly not limited to:

• Representations of mental illness in literature, pop culture, or historical texts
• The role of rhetoric, language, and creativity in medical writing
• Representations of the healthy or sick body in literature
• The ethics of "diagnosing" literary or historical figures
• Literature's role in normalizing, otherizing, or popularizing mental or physical ailments
• Literary analyses of psychological writing or scientific writing

Our conference will be held on Saturday, March 9 at Boston College. Boston College is located in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts and is easily accessible to downtown Boston. See www.bc.edu for additional campus information.

For questions and submissions, please contact dailym@bc.edu.

Submissions are due by Tuesday, January 15th.

Histoire de l'hypnose

Hypnoses d'hier et d'aujourd'hui 
(2012-2013)
Si les pratiques « hypnotiques » sur lesquelles se centrera le séminaire en 2012-2013 se présentent sous différents modes, elles ont aussi en commun de poser un certain nombre de question au sujet du corps, de ses représentations et de la place qui lui est accordée selon les contextes. Nous nous attacherons à les mettre en perspective dans le respect de leur diversité.

Un terme en relation au sommeil – hypnose – s’est accrédité dans la médecine et la psychologie des XIXe et XXe siècles occidentaux pour désigner un « état non ordinaire de conscience ». Sa signification s’est cristallisée dans un ensemble de représentations culturelles qui demandent à être élucidées. L’hypnose peut en effet renvoyer à des pratiques très variées, impliquant paroles ou gestes, musiques, danses ou mises en scène théâtrales.

Si les pratiques « hypnotiques » sur lesquelles se centrera le séminaire en 2012-2013 se présentent sous différents modes, elles ont aussi en commun de poser un certain nombre de question au sujet du corps, de ses représentations et de la place qui lui est accordée selon les contextes. Nous nous attacherons à les mettre en perspective dans le respect de leur diversité.
