Afro Literature Conference

Cuando decidimos abordar el estudio de la “literatura africana”, nos enfrentamos a una serie de problemas, en tanto campo complejo de tensiones, de núcleos constitutivos, de perspectivas, inherentes a toda etiqueta formada por la palabra literatura y un gentilicio. Una dificultad no menor la encontramos en los planes de estudios de las carreras de Letras en Argentina cuyo “patrón cognitivo” (Quijano 2017) aún persiste dentro de los rasgos de un patrón de poder fundado en la colonialidad: el centro no ha sido del todo desplazado, para decirlo con wa Thiong’o (2014). El eurocentrismo académico en nuestro país perdura en el escaso interés que el pensamiento africano y afrodiaspórico ocupa en las carreras de Humanidades y Ciencias Sociales, con destacadas excepciones siempre individuales o colectivas pero rara vez institucionale.

Urban Injustices: Normative Ideas and Practices

Hosted by the Centre for Metropolitan Studies (CEM) at the University of São Paulo (USP), this event aims to create a forum for novel academic debates by combining reflections on concepts and theories in contemporary political philosophy with empirical claims by groups that suffer from such injustices, along with normative justifications that support fairer and more egalitarian cities.

Dinámicas de poblaciones en las Américas: perspectivas del pasado y presente

Jornadas de los Jóvenes Americanistas 2023

La 14ª edición de las Jornadas de los Jóvenes Americanistas (JJA) se presenta como una oportunidad para dialogar y analizar las dinámicas de poblaciones en las Américas. Las jornadas de los jóvenes americanistas (JJA) 2023 buscarán ampliar la noción de «dinámica de poblaciones» prestada de la ecología. Esta noción que se vincula con las cuestiones de movilidad evalúa los factores que afectan el aumento, la estabilidad y la disminución de las poblaciones a lo largo del tiempo (Gotelli, 2001). A través de este prisma, buscamos un enfoque holístico de las poblaciones en tanto sistemas abiertos multiescalares en constante mutación espacio-temporal.

Call for papers - Thought

Rhythm is a central element in the creation of meaning in art, and its configuration is such that it requires a multi, inter and transdisciplinary approach. The difference of materials, procedures and events masks the resemblance of rhythmic phenomena that are similar in different arts and hides their identity or their homology. In the work of some scholars, the concepts do not seem to belong to a particular artistic discipline, being rather characteristic of the rhythmic phenomenon. The objective of this conference is to provide an instance for exchanging knowledge, concerns and aspirations for those who have been devoting themselves to the study of rhythm and artistic creation on the subject.

Sédimentation : vers une archéologie du texte et de l'image

XIIIe congrès international de l’« International association of word and image studies » (IAWIS) / Association international pour l’étude des rapports entre texte et image (AIERTI)

The 13^th International Conference of the International Word and Image Association (IAWIS) will take place between 28 August and 01 September 2023 in hybrid mode at the Federal University of Minas Gerais, in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Next year's conference will focus on the concept of sedimentation in word-image studies.

Le remploi, l’appropriation, la répétition : transferts entre la littérature, le théâtre et le cinéma

Reutilização, apropriação, repetição: transferências entre a literatura, o teatro e cinema

Les déplacements, les appropriations et les hybridations, enfin, les recyclages et les remplois, constituent des traits distinctifs d’une partie importante des productions culturelles, au moins dès le début du XXI^e siècle. Dans la littérature comme dans le cinéma, on perçoit des pratiques et procédés qui visent à réélaborer, remployer, modifier, transcrire, arranger par la répétition. Nous invitons les chercheuses et chercheurs à proposer des communications en privilégiant la répétition comme axe de réflexion autour des pratiques médiatiques entre littérature, cinéma et théâtre.

American pop culture in languages and history classrooms

This roundtable, that is organized around the publication of the book, In the Cogwheels of American Pop Culture, aims to reflect on the strengths and limitations of using the objects of American popular culture in language and history classes. American popular culture, being a mirror of American society conveys its tensions and antagonisms. It is therefore paramount to be able to highlight how its contents can be useful in classrooms, but also the inaccuracies, prejudices, and discriminations that they can vehicle. This reflection will stress the methodology adopted by teachers to integrate these materials into their lesson plans, but also the reception that learners make of them.

Indigenous art today: critical perspectives and crossing viewpoints

The notion of indigenous art today is more controversial than ever. Even though it constitutes a vindication and legitimization tool for the native peoples, its demand continues to reproduce a nineteenth-century distinction between Indigenous and civilized, primitive and modern, Western and the no-Western. Such distinctions provided the grounds on which several academic disciplines were formed, and based on their differences, they also forged diverging theoretical, methodological, and practical paths. Today, the multiple narratives on art aspire to coexist rather than compete, from the logic that fosters multivocality and plurality of discourses whatever their origins or inclinations are. We welcome all those who wish to participate to reflect on the possibilities for encounter and dialogue in the study of aesthetic manifestations and forms of expression that have not necessarily been perceived as “artistic” and that, until now, have been mainly the object of interest of the anthropological and archaeological disciplines.

La post-serialidad y la reconfiguración del espacio televisivo

Nuevos marcos de producción, distribución y recepción tecno-filosófica en Iberoamérica

El presente dossier de la revista Caiana busca propiciar un espacio de reflexión y producción crítica sobre los desafíos de la televisión contemporánea en general y la narrativa seriada en particular, desde y entre los diferentes países iberoamericanos. Partiendo de las diversas identidades y sensibilidades como naciones (Elsaesser, 2005), nuestro objetivo es arrojar luz sobre el fenómeno que ha convertido a las series televisivas en impulsoras del crecimiento audiovisual de la mayoría de los países, estableciendo nuevos marcos de producción donde intervienen políticas locales y acuerdos internacionales que redefinen el nuevo ecosistema de creación, producción y distribución, así como los contenidos de los productos resultantes.

Forest citizenship for disaster resilience: learning from COVID-19

Postdoctoral fellowship of the Research Project Trans-Atlantic Platform (FAPESP/ESRC/NSF)

The Project “Forest citizenship for disaster resilience: learning from COVID-19” and the Department of Sociology at Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar) are receiving applications for one postdoctoral (PD) scholarship to develop research on forest citizenship in Amazonia. This scholarship is associated with the Trans-Atlantic Platform, supported by FAPESP Grant 2021/07558-3, directed by Prof. Dr. Rodrigo Constante Martins in Brazil, Luke Parry in the United Kingdom, and Peter Newton in the United States. The main goal of this postdoctoral fellowship, which was pre-approved by the Sao Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP), is to investigate how forest peoples, notably rural communities and riverine populations, have made use of specific practices and actions to face the pandemic of COVID-19, and how the strategies adopted by these social groups - outside the established institutional circuits - have been constituted as important instruments for the maintenance of their ways of life.

Las ciudades portuarias en los procesos de globalización

VII coloquio internacional sobre patrimonio portuario

El VII Coloquio Internacional sobre Patrimonio Portuario pretende poner en diálogo las experiencias de preservación de los paisajes portuarios. Asimismo, procura ser un ámbito de presentación de investigaciones referidas al devenir de las relaciones entre el puerto y la ciudad, desde una distinta mirada interdisciplinar e interinstitucional. Esta convocatoria está abierta a todos los investigadores que tengan como campo de estudio algún aspecto vinculado al patrimonio portuario en general, a las ciudades portuaria en su interacción con sus respectivos hinterland y foreland, y al desarrollo sustentable en las ciudades donde coexisten la actividad portuaria con la cotidianeidad de lo urbano y lo regional. Teniendo en cuenta la relevancia adquirida por la gobernanza, puerto-ciudad, y que el conocimiento de las configuraciones identitarias puede contribuir a la elaboración de políticas públicas para el desarrollo sustentable se realizará el I Encuentro Interdisciplinario: las ciudades portuarias en los procesos de globalización.

Dialogues in Antiquity: Archetypes for a Contemporary World

Xth Conference on Classical Philology in honorem Giselle von der Walde

The expressive wealth of dialogue presents itself in numerous artistic and intellectual ways. The encounters between emotional and aesthetic resources, pedagogical and didactic purposes, as well as between claims of objectivity and scientific rigor, are fertile ground for the transdisciplinary inquiry characteristic of classical studies. This invites a diversity and multiplicity of perspectives for contributions in relation to ancient authors and their works. Investigating the history of dialogue since Antiquity also allows us to consider it as an archetype for the exchange of opinions and ideas. This is suitable for dealing with current problems that increasingly require the willingness to negotiate and rethink ideas and convictions, empathize with the feelings of others, and build agreements based on the examination of opposing arguments and points of view.
