The Francophone Social Sciences and Humanities Research Seminar 4901-FSBNSiH-OG
The Francophone Social Sciences and Humanities Research Seminar is a project organized by the Centre for French Culture and Francophone Studies. Its goal is to present various areas of current research in France from an interdisciplinary perspective, as well as insights from Polish researchers who closely engage with the Francophone academic world.
Referring to a common theme, each meeting proposes to discuss the selected issue from the perspective of a particular discipline (history, philosophy, anthropology, sociology, etc.). This approach not only allows students to grasp the diversity, plurality and originality of the approaches, scientific analyses and discussions that animate the French-speaking intellectual world, but also to understand their echoes in a wider Polish, European or even global context.
All meetings will be conducted in French.
The seminar's central theme for the 2025/26 academic year will be "the ends of war" (sorties de guerre).

Learning outcomes
After completion of the course, the student:
- will understand the most important new theories in French humanities and social sciences;
- will be able to use concepts and categories from the French humanities and social sciences for research and analytical purposes.
- will be able to formulate, analyse, solve problems and tasks based on the humanities and social sciences
Assessment criteria
To be assigned ECTS credits, students must meet the following three criteria:
- Attendance: One absence is allowed.
- Active participation – students are encouraged to take an active part in the exchanges: prepare the required readings and be prepared to discuss them critically, think about the themes of the sessions and prepare questions that they will address during the sessions. The questions' quality, rather than quantity, will be rewarded.
- Final paper (in French) – students will choose a topic related to one of the seminar sessions and write a short essay (around 2000 words) with a bibliography. The coordinators will assess the choice of subject, the quality of the argument and the written expression. The work will be checked as part of the university's anti-plagiarism programme and by the ChatGPT detection programme. The paper must be submitted on the KAMPUS platform.
To validate the course, students must attend the class and achieve a passing grade based on the weighted average of their essay and class activity grades.
