Conférence : François HARTOG
24 MAI 19
Conférencier:Prof. François HARTOG (Professeur, EHESS, Paris)
Titre : Toward a new historical Condition
Date : Vendredi 24 mai 2019, 15h.
Lieu : Salle 1, Centre recherche d'Humanité et de la Sciecne Sociale, Academia Sinica, Taipei
Résumé :
From the transformations of our historical experiences, can we hypothesize the emergence of a new historical condition? I think we can answer this question in the affirmative. Indeed, the questioning of the modern concept of history, as well as the rise of memory, the future in crisis, the growing place taken by the present alone – these are all symptoms of the recent and profound transformations of our experience of time. The discipline of history struggles to grasp these transformations and, even more, to give them meaning. Can global history, which has developed rapidly, put forward a new concept of history? Isn’t the Anthropocene, which recognizes humanity as a geological force, nothing short of a radical questioning of history as it has been written since the modern era?
