  Chamada de trabalhos - África

  Innovation, Invention and Memory in Africa

  IV Cham international conference, Lisbon, July 2019

  The Portuguese Centre for Humanities (CHAM) is an inter-University research unit of the Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas, Universidade NOVA de Lisboa and of the Universidade dos Açores, funded by the Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia. CHAM’s team includes researchers from different disciplinary fields (Archaeology, Art History, Heritage, Literature, Philosophy and History of ideas), different domains of History (Economic, Cultural, Political, Social, Religious, History of Science and History of books and reading practices) and specialists from various geographic spaces. From 2015 to 2020, CHAM’s strategic project will focus on “frontiers”. This multi-disciplinary project considers frontiers as limits that distinguished, throughout history, a plurality of societies and cultures, but also as social and cultural constructs that promoted communication and interaction.

  Marfins Africanos

  No Mundo Atlântico, 1400-1900

  Desde Abril de 2015, a equipa internacional do projecto “Marfins Africanos no Mundo Atlântico: uma reavaliação dos marfins luso-africanos” (Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia: PTDC/EPH-PAT/1810/2014), constituída por 27 investigadores  das Universidades de Lisboa e Évora, e da Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, no Brasil, tem desenvolvido uma investigação sobre o comércio, circulação e produção de marfim africano, em bruto e esculpido, no espaço atlântico entre os séculos XV e XVIII. Foi feita uma identificação e inventariação de objectos nas colecções portuguesas e brasileiras, em Minas Gerais, bem como uma recolha de referências e descrições nas fontes escritas portuguesas. Pela primeira vez uma selecção de marfins foi alvo de análises laboratoriais com vista a contribuir para dilucidar cronologias e proveniências. A equipa de investigação do projecto tem construído propostas de reinterpretação da cultura material a partir dos contextos africanos da sua produção.

  Beyond the acacia tree: nature, landscape and ecology in Africa

  Africa e Mediterraneo Issue 83/2015

  The empty and uncontaminated landscapes of Africa – that the oriental perspective has idealized with the strong support of the tourism industry, and that have been pictured in stereotypical images (like covers and posters portraying the common acacia tree during the sunset) as opposed to the alienating anthropization of the first world – are nowadays put at risk by a growing and hazardous pollution, as denounced by many.

  Colóquio - Geografia

  Les fronts écologiques / Eco-frontiers

  Entre terr(itoir)es, paysages et réseaux [Afrique du Sud, invité d'honneur] / Between land(scape), territory and networks [South Africa, invited country]

  Le thème du colloque « les "fronts écologiques", entre terr(itoir)es, paysage et réseaux » s’insère totalement dans les problématiques actuelles de recherches, théoriques et appliquées, sur le développement durable. En effet, un « front écologique » désigne un espace de faible densité de population, doté de valeurs écologiques et paysagères fortes et convoité par des acteurs aux motivations aussi variées que conflictuelles (tourisme, villégiature, protection de l’environnement, énergies alternatives, exploitation forestière etc.). Un « front écologique » est donc traversé par des enjeux multiples et systémiques qui font largement écho aux situations rencontrées aujourd’hui un peu partout dans le monde : question foncière, dynamiques territoriales, valorisation des paysages et protection de la nature et mise en réseau des espaces et des acteurs. Nous concevons donc la région d’accueil de ce colloque autant comme un lieu de débat que comme un terrain d’études et d’observations comparatives.
