Port Cities: Comparative Perspectives on Urban Stability and Public Safety
18th-21st centuries
The coming of globalization was centrally anchored in the increased mobility of goods, people and ideas. Port cities were thus transformed in crucial hubs in this mobility age. Because of the heterogeneous social and cultural landscape associated with commerce and transport, port cities became increasingly known as insecure places. Hence the perceptions resulting from and the strategies adopted to deal with the insecurity and the search for a new sense of urban stability were especially acute in port cities.

Conference, symposium - Early modern
The Commentary Tradition on Thomas Aquinas's Summa Theologiae (15th-18th Century)
La Somme théologique est un des classiques de l’histoire de la théologie et de la philosophie. Au-delà de son énorme influence au Moyen Âge, la Somme a aussi marqué la théologie et la philosophie au début de l’époque moderne. Cela s’explique aussi par le fait que la Somme a remplacé les Sentences de Pierre Lombard comme le texte par lequel la théologie était enseignée dans les universités catholiques à partir de la fin du XVe et jusqu’au XVIIIe siècle. Ce remplacement s’est produit premièrement dans les studia dominicaines allemands dans la seconde moitié du XVe siècle et, au niveau universitaire, à Salamanque avec Francisco de Vitoria dans les années 1530. Dans quelques décennies, la Somme était adoptée comme le livre d’enseignement de la théologie dans toute l’Europe de la Contre-Réforme.

Environmental approaches of interactions between cities and forest supplies during the Middles Ages and the Early modern period. 12th International Conference on urban History, European Association for Urban History – Main Session M16
As places of consumption and production European medieval and early modern cities exerted a enormous pressure on neighbouring woodlands. Some historical studies have already discussed the way cities tried to impone their control on these lands emphasizing the diversity of needs which were fulfilled by forest exploitation (wood, timber, charcoal, grazing…). They often concluded that urban pressure resulted in an inexorable degradation of the forest cover. Indeed local woodlands and forests products could probably never meet the demand. In order to face shortage or, better, to prevent it, urban authorities attempted on one hand to extend their control on more and more distant forests and to attract interregional or « international » trade flows. On the other hand, they tried to regulate the local market so as to ensure access to several important needs regarding urban economy (charcoal, timber).

EAUH 2014, Session 12
The session "City Lights" is organized within the framework of the 12th international conference of the EAUH (European Association for Urban History) which will take place in Lisbon from the 3rd to the 6th September 2014. It is part of the studies on night, a dimension which has been long neglected in urban history. The session proposes to study in a comparative and multidisciplinary perspective (in history, geography, planning, sociology and environmental studies) the evolution of night-time and street-lighting practices in the world from the XVIIth century up to the present: from the increasing demand in public lighting in european capitals to the protection of the night sky and energy savings.

Monarquias ibéricas em perspectiva comparada
As monarquias imperiais ibéricas da época moderna têm sido objeto de um crescente interesse historiográfico. São inúmeros os estudos que assinalam a inserção global das redes dos dois impérios: as redes comerciais têm sido estudadas com bastante detalhe, e em articulação com estas, o tráfico de escravos, e, mais recentemente, as experiências sociais e culturais em contexto imperial têm adquirido saliência. Todavia, continuam a escassear os estudos que pensem ambas experiências comparativamente. Até que ponto é que as experiências imperiais ibéricas entre os séculos XVI e XVIII herdaram modelos político-administrativos que caracterizavam o mundo ibérico antes da expansão ultramarina? Em que medida é que estes modelos, ao serem transferidos e adaptados a diferentes contextos políticos, sociais e culturais, potenciaram novas soluções político-administrativas, algumas das quais, eventualmente, tiveram reverberações na cultura político-administrativa das metrópoles? Como é que as redes político-administrativas e respetivos agentes de poder se estruturaram e se reproduziram, o modo como estas articularam centros políticos e territórios imperiais, aproximando ou diferenciando uns e outros, constituindo, simultaneamente, as continuidades e singularidades entre metrópoles e territórios imperiais?

Novas perspectivas sobre o poder no Portugal contemporâneo
As figuras do poder tenderam a ser identificadas por historiadores com os poucos homens e menos mulheres que ao longo dos tempos protagonizaram o governo dos Estados. As biografias de grandes dirigentes e as prosopografias das elites políticas têm-se multiplicado nas bibliotecas académicas e nos escaparates das livrarias. Contra esta história dos grandes líderes, fizeram-se ouvir, todavia, críticas historiográficas que têm contribuído para uma possível redefinição do entendimento e estudo das relações de poder ao longo da história.

Performing Documentation in the Conservation of Contemporary Art
Contemporary art conservation requires a re-assessment of the distinction between the work and its re-configuration in documentation. Although documentation is crucial for the survival of many contemporary works of art, it is never neutral: all approaches, formats, media and systems have their own inherent affordances and blind spots and always transform what they document. Furthermore, in process-centered, technology-based or performative artworks in particular, we often can no longer make a sharp distinction between an original work and its subsequent documentation or replication: documentation is part of the work's very core.

Call for papers - Ethnology, anthropology
Bioanthropological meeting: a multidisciplinary approach
The I BAM follows a long tradition in the organization of scientific events with an international scope in the field of Biological Anthropology. The former Department of Anthropology and now the Department of Life Sciences in the University of Coimbra has, over the years, stood out not only in research but also in teaching Anthropology. To an organizing committee constituted by very young researchers, with deep connections to this institution, it is an honor to be able to count with all its support. The idea of this encounter arises from the urge to be closely involved in the practical applicability of the knowledge intersection, at the specific level of Biological Anthropology. This meeting aims to present the latest research that has been developed in several areas of this field.

The diplomatic letter (2): the epistolary genre as an administration tool
La série de journées d’études consacrée à « La Lettre diplomatique » tire son argument de la grande ductilité du genre épistolaire et s’attache à l’étude de la contamination formelle de l’acte diplomatique par la lettre. En effet, si l’acte se justifie par le droit qu’il crée et la lettre par les nouvelles qu’elle donne, la lettre peut aussi transmettre un ordre ou notifier une situation juridique et devenir de ce fait « diplomatique ». Avec cette seconde session, on attend réfléchir à la forte « diplomatisation » de la lettre à partir du Moyen Âge central, en lien notamment avec le redéploiement des artes dictaminis dès le XIe siècle, et à la diversité des emplois du genre épistolaire comme outil administratif.

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.

The problem of ethnographic and anthropological methodology
Antropológicas Journal
The journal Antropológicas is accepting proposals for publication in its next issue that will address the problem of ethnographic and anthropological methodology. Manuscripts should be submitted to the page http://revistas.rcaap.pt/antropologicas/login by the 28th of February of 2013. Antropológicas’ number 13th will address the problem of ethnographic and anthropological methodology, because since the academic statement of its field of knowledge, ethnographic practice and anthropological writing had many debates, both for the originality of the methodology and the scientific accuracy required by their professionals. Among social sciences, anthropology was the one where theoretical discussion about its rationale demanded a greater critical capacity, by placing into question its methodological grounds.

Women and sport in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries
Women's access to sports and physical education is a story made by advances and retreats, punctuated by discrimination, mentalities’ shifts and social achievements. In fact, by the end of 1800, women's participation in sporting events was only looked upon as entertainment, giving particular attention to body and facial postures, and to feminine beauty, setting physical strength, agility and skill of the athletes as second level of importance. The Summer Olympics are a clear illustration of this historical path. The "Women and Sport in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries" conference, organized by the Institute of Contemporary History (Faculty of Social and Human Sciences - Nova University of Lisbon), seeks to analyze, in a critical and integrated way, the history of this journey, watching its multiple dimensions and approaches: social, economic, political, cultural, legal, ethical, organizational, media, medical and gender. This meeting aims to provide a space of discussion, seeking to stimulate and further develop studies in the History of Sports, particularly in the field of History of Women’s Sports.

Resisting War in the 20th Century
This congress intends to promote debate about the multiple kinds of resistance to war as well as explore the different academic approaches taken to studying it, especially but not exclusively in history, anthropology, sociology and political science as well as literary, cultural, artistic, subaltern and gender studies. We call for empirical, theoretical or methodological papers that discuss the issue of resistance to war in the twentieth century in its multiple performances and visions, in different observation scales. We hope to see studies highlighting different actors, institutions, practices and speeches and also hegemonic or counter-hegemonic collective representations.
