  Challenges of Cultural Diversity in Europe and the Arab World

  The era of globalization arises numerous challenges to accept plurality, differences and management of cultural diversity, especially, with the return of the ingredient of culture to the field of political action in a context in which culture has a central role in the post Cold War world. Globalization has tried to widespread certain values, practices and cultural expressions, whereas in numerous Arab and Western countries, refuge has been sought in cultural singularity and identity. Therefore, cultural factors have had their impact in the design of national, regional and international policies.

  IV International Conference of Myth Criticism

  Myth and Emotions

  Along with rational logic there is an emotional logic, responsible for many actions that we carry out. Myth Criticism tends to tackle mythical stories from a structural, social and historical perspective. However, it often ignores the emotional component. It seems as if the affective dimension, particularly active in our contemporary society, is not considered relevant in the studies of mythology. The Conference will examine the function undertaken by emotions in the structure of mythical stories and in the processes of mythification of characters and historical events. The object of the study will focus on ancient, medieval and modern myths in contemporary literature and art (since 1900).

  Iberian bronzes - Iberian toreutics

  À propos de la toreutique ibérique

  El objetivo de este coloquio es la puesta al día y debate crítico del estudio sobre los bronces de la Cultura Ibérica (siglos VI al I a.C.), como línea de trabajo que inició y potenció el profesor francés Gérard Nicolini. Dicho investigador ha centrado gran parte de su investigación en el estudio de los numerosos exvotos ibéricos procedentes de los santuarios de Sierra Morena y de Murcia. Asimismo, fue director de las excavaciones en alguno de estos espacios, como en el santuario de Castellar, en colaboración con la Universidad de Jaén.
