    Call for papers - Ethnology, anthropology

    Futuros Disputados (2016)

    VI congresso da Associação Portuguesa de Antropologia (APA) – Chamada para comunicações

    The upcoming conference of the Portuguese Anthropological Association continues the debate about the worlds we inhabit, create and differentiate. Knowledge about its pluralities has guided the discipline for over one hundred years, in ever new and unexpected scenarios. Anthropology faces new challenges in the contemporary context of an anthropocene (or in its most radical version, capitolocene) and its uncertain responsibilities on the collective fate of humans and nonhumans. While governments and political actors favor macroscopic knowledge supported on statistics and normative analytical frameworks, we respond with what we learn in ethnography and anthropology: a knowledge closer to the lived experience and one that pays attention to the voices, bodies, desires, subjectivities, communities, identities, anxieties about the past, present and near future, unsatisfied by large-scope ideological narratives.

    Lusophone mobilities: between past and present, which future?

    6th Conference of the Portuguese Association of Anthropology - panel T047

    This panel is meant to discuss these migrating populations’ mobility procedures in lusophone countries, while seeking to construct through the different presentations a broaden mosaic of reflexions about when and how these populations have moved, and how they have used and instrumentalized the "imagined" and politically constructed idea of a "lusophone community".

    Eugène Labiche and the heritage of boulevard theatre

    Commemoration of the bicentenary of the birth of Eugène Labiche

    Parmi les dramaturges du XIXe siècle, Eugène Labiche demeure un des noms majeurs du panorama théâtral national et l’un des auteurs plus joués à son époque. Ce colloque international se propose de redécouvrir le rôle de Labiche au sein de l’histoire culturelle européenne afin de dégager ses principales options dramaturgiques et à revisiter son répertoire dramatique et son héritage sur les différentes générations d’artistes jusqu’à l’actualité. On s’interrogera d’emblée sur les questions de réception et de circulation de son œuvre dans les domaines culturels aussi divers que ceux de la scène française et étrangère, de l’édition et de la traduction / adaptation.

    Migrations and exiles

    One of the 20th century's main features was the large movements of people abandoning their places of origin for economic, political and social reasons. Migration-fostering conditions, like the search for sufficient means of subsistence, escaping from armed conflict and political and religious persecution, are intensified by economic crises and the advent of authoritarian Governments. In the host countries, emigrants, exiles and refugees form associations, publish periodicals, hold commemorations and foster socialisation tools, which make them a group with a national identity and/or a specific political positioning. Concomitantly, they undergo acculturation, as a result of their inevitable adjustment to the new reality, translated into the activities they perform and the structure of the relations they keep with the host country.

    Is this the same language? Plurilingualism and migrations in French language literature

    Ce colloque international a pour ambition de formaliser et de théoriser un phénomène qui concerne à la fois la linguistique et la littérature. Il existe un intérêt croissant pour l´écriture plurilingue à travers différents types de textes et de genres. L'objectif est de réunir des chercheurs travaillant sur les questions d'actualité dans le contexte des langues et de la culture. Plus précisément, le colloque prétend fournir un aperçu de l´état de la question, d'explorer de nouvelles directions et les nouvelles tendances dans les cultures et les langues. Aussi, l’Association portugaise d’études françaises, en partenariat avec la faculté des lettres de l’université de Coimbra, est-elle heureuse d’annoncer ce colloque qu’elle organise à l’université de Coimbra, les 19 et 20 mars 2015, aux chercheurs que cette thématique transversale ne manquera pas d'intéresser et d’interpeller.

    Tropical Medicine and Global Health in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries

    Second Luso-Brazilian Meeting on the History of Tropical Medicine

    The Luso-Brazilian Meetings on the History of Tropical Medicine have always sought to strike a balance between historiographical reflections, which help develop a broader comparative analysis, and case-studies examining different national, colonial, post-colonial, international and global contexts. We will continue to favor both approaches at the 1st meeting. The bulk of historiographical research has explored the period in the post-World War II. This meeting will work with a broader focus by examining the roles played by countries like Portugal, Brazil and Spain, and their connections with imperial and post-colonial research and practice.

    Grammar and text: the crossroads of frontiers

    4th International conference in grammar and text (GRATO 2015)

    Les relations entre grammaire et texte / discours peuvent être considérées comme un espace de convergence. Il est donc possible de partir de phénomènes linguistiques locaux pour mieux comprendre les textes / discours. Mais il est également concevable de partir de configurations textuelles / discursives pour mieux comprendre le fonctionnement de la langue sous différents points de vue – sémantique, pragmatique, morphosyntaxique, énonciatif – selon une perspective synchronique ou diachronique. Les deux itinéraires peuvent être envisagés selon une approche didactique.

    The study of manufactured objects in medieval archaeology and the study of illuminated manuscripts

    Methodologies compared

    O objetivo deste workshop é comparar, por meio da análise de alguns casos específicos, os métodos científicos utilizados no estudo dos manuscritos iluminados (história da arte) e dos artefactos encontrados no âmbito da arqueologia medieval. Em ambas as áreas os contextos de criação e utilização dos objectos são fundamentais para a sua caracterização e compreensão. A partir de casos específicos tentar-se-á traçar semelhanças e diferenças nos métodos de análise que caracterizam as duas disciplinas históricas. Deste modo pretende-se compreender em que medida é possível adaptar e aplicar metodologias diversas de modo a obter um conhecimento mais profundo do objecto e do seu contexto.

    The (de)construction of Europe (1939-1945)

    3rd annual encounter of Europe and the world

    Suite aux rencontres organisées en 2012 et en 2013, respectivement intitulées Pour la Paix (1849-1939) et L’Europe de l’entre-deux-guerres (1919-1939), la IIIe Rencontre annuelle l’Europe et le Monde propose à la réflexion et à la discussion les idées, les propositions et les initiatives qui, dans le contexte de la seconde guerre mondiale, ont eu l’Europe pour objet. Les années de guerre ont vu, en particulier dans les mouvements de résistance, se former des conceptions nouvelles de l’union politique et économique de l’Europe. Entraînée dans un processus d’autodestruction, l’Europe a été durant le même temps repensée dans des architectures diverses où les esprits ont cherché à configurer leurs idéaux de coopération européenne.
