Liberation struggles, the “falling of the empire” and the birth [through images] of African nations

The fortieth anniversary of Portuguese decolonisation of Africa has acted as a catalyst in discussing how Portugal “imagined” colonial politics through moving images and how these propagandist portrayals began to be questioned by the Portuguese “Novo Cinema”. This can be seen in works that were censured and prohibited. Portuguese colonial cinematographic representations were later challenged by films made in the context of the liberation movements and by images that emerged out of the national cinematographic projection (Frodon) of the new Portuguese-speaking African countries. This conference intends to go some way in highlighting common aspects in the emergence of cinema in Angola, Mozambique and Guinea-Bissau, which have all been studied individually.

The War within: finance and morality in early-modern Europe (1630-1815)

While many historical studies have shown that the funding of international warfare had a profound impact on institutional and economic developments, less work has been done on the ways in which European polities responded to the "War within" that pitted those who benefited from war expenditure against those who paid for the military effort. A series of case studies on Spain, Venice, the Dutch provinces, the Austrian Low Countries, Prussia, France, Britain and Sweden will analyse some of the conflicts that arose when the needs and methods of financing war met social demands for morality and accountability. These are fundamental questions that still resonate and have relevance today as governments and societies try to move on from the Global Financial Crisis.

Stylus as a Paint Brush – Writing and Artistic Creation (VIth to IXth centuries)

International medieval congress 2016

By involving scholars from various disciplines, these two sessions will explore: the ability of late antique and medieval authors to create images throughout their written words, blurring the borders between visual and literary arts; investigate how the written and oral dissemination of textual imagery interacted with the conception, production, and perception of visual arts in the same period.

The Progect Network for the study of progressive rock

Second International Conference

After the success of the first initiative in Dijon (2014), The Progect is organizing its second international conference on the 25th, 26th and 27th May 2016 in Edinburgh, UK. For this second event we encourage researchers to present papers that develop an interdisciplinary approach to progressive rock across three fields: musicology, sociology and media studies. We especially welcome papers that explore the ways in which these fields interact, complement or contradict each other.

The Dominican Order in the Middle Ages

En 2016, l'Ordre dominicain fêtera son 800^e anniversaire. Au Moyen Âge, il joua un rôle crucial dans toute l'Europe, en particulier dans les débats sur la prédication et la pastorale, l'hérésie et l'Inquisition, la pauvreté et la richesse. Pour marquer cet anniversaire, plusieurs sessions de l'International Medieval Congress (IMC) de Leeds porteront sur les débuts de l'histoire de l'ordre. Elles viseront à faire le point sur l'état de la recherche et à mettre en place un réseau de chercheuses et chercheurs issus de pays différents.

Fabrications: Designing for Silk in the Eighteenth Century

Joubert de la Hiberderie’s Le Dessinateur d’étoffes d’or, d’argent, et de soie (1765) was the first book to be published on textile design in Europe. In preparation for the publication of an English translation and critical edition of the text this one day conference calls for papers that will analyse, critique, contextualise, review or otherwise engage with the Le dessinateur in the light of its themes: production, design, technology, education, botany and art. Joubert’s manual argues for both a liberal and a technological education for the ideal designer. Such a person must, he argues, have detailed knowledge of the materials, technologies and traditions of patterned silk in order successfully to propose new designs; he or she must also have taste and an eye for beauty, which call, he says, for travel in order to see both the beauties of nature and those of art gathered in the gardens and galleries of Paris and the île de France.

Rethinking Right-Wing Women

Gender, Women and the Conservative Party, 1880s to the Present

This two-day international conference explores the relationship between women and conservatism since the late 19th century. In the media frenzy and the re-enactment of the visceral political divisions of the 1980s that greeted the death of Margaret Thatcher in April, 2013, it soon became clear that Britain’s first woman Prime Minister was being portrayed as an aberrant figure who had emerged from a party of men. It appeared that the media and the public had not been well enough served by academics in making sense of and contextualizing the Thatcher phenomenon and, more broadly, the paradoxical sexual politics of the Right.

Radical Americas Symposium 2015

The aim of the event is to bring a range of disciplinary and geographical perspectives to bear on radicalism throughout the Americas. Our definition of radicalism is a broad one, encompassing both political radicalism as an object of study, and radical analytical approaches to the societies and cultures of the Americas. We welcome proposals that deal with any aspect of radicalism, from the democratic and republican radicalisms of the nineteenth century; to the socialist, anarchist, communist, and populist radicalisms of the twentieth century; as well as contemporary identity politics, social movements, and twenty-first century radicalisms.

Comment écrire la Grande Guerre ?

Poétiques francophones et anglophones

L'objet de ce colloque international sera d'interroger, à travers des perspectives littéraires, historiques, stylistiques et linguistiques, les littératures de témoignage anglophones et francophones de la Grande Guerre, en éclairant les moyens que mobilisèrent les écrivains pour répondre aux bouleversements occasionnés par le conflit. Une attention particulière sera accordée aux évolutions de la langue, des genres ou encore du personnel romanesque, mais aussi à leurs permanences respectives, tout aussi instructives dans l'optique d'une saisie des enjeux éthiques, esthétiques et politiques de la période.

Economic Life: From the Economy to the Economical?

MANCEPT 2015

Without living beings there would be hardly no economy. The crucial question is, however, how to conceptualize the relationship between different ways of comprehending life and different ways of understanding the economy. There seems to be at least two main possibilities, which we would like to discuss and confront with each other in this workshop.

Proximity and intraregional aspects of tourism

RGS-IBG Annual International Conference

This session intends to discuss the role of proximity and intraregional aspects in the ways tourism works. In a context of intense mobilities, classic dichotomies such as tourist-resident, home-away or self-other are being challenged and several questions are arising as a result. What does exotic mean in a globalized context? Which is the relationship between everyday life and tourism? What are the implications of proximity and intraregional tourism for land planning and tourism policies? (How) can tourism play a role in connecting people and nearby places? Is there a future for ‘tourism without travel’? How does proximity tourism relate to local citizenship and community responsibilities? This session welcomes both theoretical and empirical papers aiming to share new approaches in the understanding of these phenomenons.

Representations of Rurality in Crime Fiction and Media Culture

Interdisciplinary Approaches to "Setting the Scene"

The Institute for Collaborative Research in the Humanities at Queen’s University organises a two day Symposium in June 2015 (15 & 16th) as part of its theme of "Creativity in Imagined and Material Worlds". Devoted to representations of the rural, it will bring together studies in crime fiction and media culture looking at a variety of outlets such as fiction, film, television, comics, games and many others and inspect their various engagements with the concept of "rurality". Interdisciplinary papers are welcomed, but not contained to, Anthropology, Modern Languages, English, Film and Media Studies, History, Cultural Studies, Historical/Cultural/Rural Geography, Sociology, Spatial Planning. By bringing together an interdisciplinary group we will address how cultural constructions of the rural often ‘set the scene’ for crime fiction.
