Announcement Calenda 1135028

Since 2003, our summer university has positioned itself as a leading forum for reflection on new research in Food Studies. After several thematic editions, this 2024 edition will pursue its ambition to provide a resolutely broad look at these fields of research from a multidisciplinary perspective. Over the last twenty years or so, new themes have been emerging and energizing research in food studies. How do they fit into the various disciplines of the humanities and social sciences, from anthropology and history to sociology and literary studies? How can young researchers position themselves in the face of the wide-ranging possibilities offered by this field of research? Leading specialists from different disciplinary backgrounds will address these questions through the prism of their own research.
