Online conference: Settler Vines: Making and Consuming Wine in a Globalizing World since 1850

September 23-24, 2021, Toronto

Settler Vines features four live sessions on the history of wine. They are spread out over the course of two days. The conference also hosts the Avie Bennett Historica Canada Public Lecture in Canadian History on Thursday September 23rd as part of its program. 

Do you want to know more about the spread of wine from Europe around the world? Or to explore the impact of globalization on wine production? Or perhaps you are more interested in the environmental histories of vineyards? This conference highlights the varying contributions of Indigenous Peoples, migrants, and scientists. Lastly, it explores how wine has been marketed to new consumers.

For the Avie Bennett public lecture, Settler Vines is honored to welcome Chief Clarence Louie of the Osoyoos Indian Band. The Osoyoos community created the first Indigenous owned winery in North America. Chief Louie  will discuss Indigenous Peoples and the wine industry in British Columbia in the context of globalization and climate change.

Profession historienne? Les femmes dans la production et la diffusion des savoirs historiques au Canada français, XIXe et XXe siècles

Colloque en format hybride

les 7 et 8 octobre, 2021

Auditorium de la Grande Bibliothèque, Montréal

Programmation et inscription

« “Rien n’est beau que le vrai”. C’est la devise de la Société historique de Montréal, elle devient mienne dorénavant [1] ». En prononçant ces mots en 1917, Marie-Claire Daveluy devenait la première femme à franchir les portes d’un cénacle fondé au siècle dernier et resté jusqu’alors exclusivement masculin. Tout comme Daveluy, plusieurs femmes ont pris part à la construction et à la diffusion du savoir historique au cours des XIXe et XXe siècles. La plupart, cependant, n’ont pu bénéficier de conditions de production favorables ni occuper des rôles de premier plan leur permettant de jouir d’une postérité plus grande.

Profitant de l’effervescence de la réflexion historiographique actuelle, ce colloque, qui sera suivi de la publication d’un ouvrage collectif, veut précisément mettre en lumière les diverses formes de participation et de contribution des femmes du Canada français au dynamisme d’un champ historique en constante métamorphose. La consultation des principaux traités d’historiographie (Gagnon, 1978 et 1997; Lamarre, 1993; Rudin, 1998) ou des anthologies (Bédard et Goyette, 2006) pourrait décourager quiconque d’une telle entreprise. Les seules figures féminines ayant droit de cité au panthéon historiographique semblent ces rares académiciennes ayant réussi à percer le fameux plafond de verre. À lire les noms des Louise Dechêne, Micheline Dumont et Nadia Fahmy-Eid, par exemple, on mesure certes la valeur de leur contribution, mais aussi la légèreté du poids des femmes dans la mémoire historiographique du Québec et du Canada français.

The KHI Amerindian Lecture Series (online)

In the framework of Department Gerhard Wolf & 4A_Laboratory: Art Histories, Archaeologies, Anthropologies, Aesthetics
Organized by Sanja Savkić Šebek (KHI in Florenz – Max-Planck-Institut & Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin) & Bat-ami Artzi (Dumbarton Oaks)

The KHI Amerindian Lecture Series 2021 is conceived as a forum to reflect on Indigenous arts/visual cultures and aesthetic practices created on the American continent, past and present. It gathers scholars who present novel research in/linking art history, anthropology/ethnology, (ethno)history, archaeology, museum studies, artistic and curatorial work, as well as other areas of inquiry concerned with images and artifacts and their handling. The diversity and richness of indigenous ‘visual modes’ across the continent is shown through a range of case studies which serve as a starting point to develop methodological and conceptual tools for the study of a variety of subjects, such as: the relationship of Amerindian art and ritual, and a specific ontology of images; the relation between aesthetics, cosmology and ecology; the encounter between Amerindian and European artistic and scriptural conventions; representations of connectedness of native practices across time and space in different media; the tension between locality and globality; pattern and form; politics of display; memory, identity, gender, ethnicity and violence in visual manifestations, among other themes. The studies break the artificial borders between fine art and craft, and question scholarly canons, as well as museal and exhibitory forms.
