Literary fiction against "storytelling" II
Forms, values, and the powers of literature today
À l’heure où « l’art de raconter des histoires » devient aussi, et à grande échelle, le moyen par excellence de vendre ou de gouverner, la question de la spécificité de la fiction littéraire doit être posée à nouveaux frais : dans le « bain narratif » qui semble devenu la condition la plus générale de notre expérience quotidienne du monde, peut-on distinguer un récit / une fiction qui soit spécifiquement littéraire ? Si oui, la littérarité d’un récit / d’une fiction tient-elle à des traits formels ou seulement à l’usage (« littéraire » ou stratégique) qui en est fait ? Ce séminaire-cycle de rencontres propose six rencontres entre universitaires et écrivains évoquant leur pratique littéraire à l'ère du « tout narratif ».

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.

Conference, symposium - Language
Nineteenth and Twentieth Century Philological Encounters
The conference brings together scholars from various regions and disciplines (including Arabic, Turkish, Hebrew, Sanskrit, as well as European languages) to explore the personal (and especially self-reflective) dimensions of academic knowledge production by studying scholars (i.e., producers) and their contexts (i.e., institutions and societies) in relation to their objects of study. The conference outlines an avenue of research dedicated to the study of tensions, antagonisms and polemics - as well as fascination, cooperation, appropriation and friendship - that transpired as a consequence of the meetings of different scholars and their dissimilar modes of textual scholarship, made possible through international cooperation in the form of conferences, journals, academic associations and student exchange.
