7th Colloquium on Translation Studies
Two hundred years after his famous lecture at the Royal Academy of Science in Berlin, during the Napoleonic era, Friedrich Schleiermacher still remains an assiduous presence in Translation Studies bibliography all over the world. His definition of two (and only two) methods of translating has become indispensable to the common core vocabulary of both translators and researchers of translation alike. This binary opposition dates back to Saint Jerome, or even Cicero (De Oratore) and still retains all of its attractiveness, being referred to by different designations such as translation methods, strategies, procedures or norms.

Academy as Community: English and American Studies in Portugal and Europe
34th APEAA Meeting
The tradition of English and American studies in Portugal has long been supported by the dynamics of academic associativism, in which APEAA’s peer network stands out, involving national and international institutions, and establishing continued interactions with research centres. At a time when political and cultural paradigms are on the verge of crisis and/or change, it is of the utmost importance to revisit the theoretical and pragmatic frameworks that sustain (and constrain) our research practices. Thus, this conference aims to provide a forum to discuss how Anglo-American scholarship, with its vocation for plurality and innovative interdisciplinary proposals, may progress. We also want to build strategies of cohesion among our peers in order to better disseminate our contribution to the interpretation and the fruition of meaning(s), valuing a plurality of cultural and aesthetic manifestations.

It is indisputable that, with his operas, Wagner introduced profound new insights relating music, language (poetry) and emotion. It is widely consensual that with his dramas, Wagner intended to explore human mind and behaviour with the power of music. In fact, never before was music so systematically used as a tool for describing and interpreting facts, events, beliefs, desires, intentions, memories and emotions. In the last decades, there has been much advance in the understanding of the cerebral basis of music and its relationships with brain mechanisms of language, cognition and emotion. In short, music has also been shown to be a powerful pathway to understand human mind and behaviour...

Local resistance and global aporia
French-language literature and the challenge of globalisation
Le phénomène complexe de la mondialisation – du fait même de ses implications culturelles et identitaires, intéresse, interroge et met la littérature (toute littérature) à l’épreuve, et au défi de se (re)définir et de décliner des approches nouvelles de son rapport à l’espace, aux lieux et genres d’écriture. De ce fait, la littérature française contemporaine et les vastes littératures francophones ou allophones d’expression française s’avèrent, à maints égards, un miroir des apories et des paradoxes que le phénomène mondialisant fait subir à nos sociétés contemporaines et qui engendrent des ambiguïtés ou des échanges identitaires et interculturels des plus féconds, mais aussi des plus impromptus.

It is indisputable that, with his operas, Wagner introduced profound new insights relating music, language (poetry) and emotion. It is widely consensual that with his dramas, Wagner intended to explore human mind and behaviour with the power of music.

In the last decades, there has been much advance in the understanding of the cerebral basis of music and its relationships with brain mechanisms of language, cognition and emotion. In short, music has also been shown to be a powerful pathway to understand human mind and behaviour with the modern tools of neuroscience. Therefore, Wagner’s bicentennial could be an excellent opportunity for a meeting, summarizing the recent advances of brain research on these themes.

Conference, symposium - Thought
"Drama and Philosophy - a recurrent and most needed encounter" works on reviewing the multiple dependence between philosophy and drama, on developing the contribution of dramatic concepts to philosophical thought, and vice versa, the contribution of philosophy to the scenic languages. We understand “drama” in the larger sense: it is precisely by the multiplicity of its languages that drama can enrich the philosophy of language. -

A conferência Interfaces da Lusofonia, inserida no âmbito do projecto Narrativas Identitárias e Memória Social, foi planeada para balizar as noções de lusofonia que têm vindo a ser estudadas a partir de diversas perspectivas, as quais, muitas vezes, se auto-excluem. Tratando-se de um projecto interdisciplinar, interessa pensar a lusofonia a partir da intersecção de disciplinas e áreas de saberes, de forma a promover um debate informado sobre o tema.
