  Imaginar pertenças, repensar identidades

  Cartografias, linguagens e narrativas sobre turismo genealógico em espaço Luso-Afro-Brasileiro

  Por ano, milhares de pessoas viajam para conhecer ou reencontrar fisicamente lugares imaginados a partir de memórias, estórias e heranças familiares. Numa viagem rumo a destinos distantes que abandonaram, dos quais foram afastados à força, ou onde nunca sequer estiveram, (re)visitam como turistas países, cidades, vilas e bairros em busca de vestígios, nomes de ruas, apelidos, alcunhas, casas e objetos, mas também tradições, cheiros, cores, texturas e sabores. Inspirados por estas mobilidades sensoriais, convidamos a comunidade de investigadores em ciências sociais e humanas a discutir connosco, numa perspetiva pluri e transdisciplinar, o turismo genealógico e o seu papel na (des)construção identitária em espaço Luso-Afro-Brasileiro.

  Images and Liturgy in Portugal in the Middle Age

  The seminar Images and Liturgy in Portugal in the Middle Age, organized by the CEAACP Multidisciplinary Group Study in Arts (University of Coimbra), in partnership with the Association of Portuguese Archaeologists / Carmo Archaeological Museum, is part of the set of project initiatives of Carla Varela Fernandes’ Postdoc (Sculptures of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries in collections of Portuguese museums. An imperative approach to a broader knowledge of the scientific reality). It aims the presentation and discussion of recent studies and reflections on works of Romanic and Gothic art existing in Portugal. It is intended to address the medieval images as part of the liturgical rituals and the buildings they were designed for. On the other hand, we’ll try to provide advances in the knowledge on the means as an iconographic innovation or aesthetic generated at a given location "moves" and appears in other geographies, serving similar purposes.

  Call for papers - Middle Ages

  Medieval manuscripts in motion

  The 2nd edition of the International Conference "Medieval Europe in Motion" is already underway. It will take place in Lisbon, March 4-6, 2015. The conference's main scientific goal is, once more, to analyse the phenomenon of circulation, motion and mobility of people, forms and ideas during the Middle Ages. This time, however, the focus will be on the illuminated manuscripts. This three-day Conference aims thus to conduct a critical and constructive revision of research on Iberian Book Illumination in the Middle Ages, proposing new questions to be discussed.
