State-Rooms of Royal and Princely Palaces in Europe (14th-16th c.)

Spaces, Images, Rituals

From the fourteenth to the sixteenth century, European monarchies saw a gradual centralisation of power. This was accompanied by the dissemination of political ideas that contributed to the making of a new image of the prince, which relied on visual instruments to assert and construct the prince’s sovereign power. Royal and princely residences with their designated state-rooms were at the centre of this phenomenon. Their decors, particularly during ceremonies, reflected political interests and ambitions that were essential to the image of the prince. By placing a particular emphasis on the decor of those state-rooms, this workshop aims to increase our insights into the relations between the architecture, decoration, and rituals of monarchical power in state-rooms from the late middle ages to the beginning of the early modern period.

O Mosteiro e a Cidade

IV Residência Cisterciense

O mosteiro e a cidade é o tema que nesta IV Residência Cisterciense em São Bento de Cástris vai preocupar investigadores e participantes deste já habitual Encontro de final de Verão no Alentejo, no findar da 3ª semana de setembro. A IV Residência Cisterciense em São Bento de Cástris procurará aflorar questões, lançar pistas de estudo que, não dando respostas, podem interessar jovens investigadores para trabalhos futuros e chamar a atenção dos investigadores séniores para a necessidade de releituras do mundo dos religiosos e, por aí, de muitas das realidades da história local e nacional. A permeabilidade que o tema deste ano suscita estará também presente nas diferentes trocas e experiências que podem vivenciar no mosteiro, especialmente ao nível cultural e artístico, apostando na sua relação com a cidade, que se pretende manter e cimentar.

Tensões em diferentes latitudes: austeridade, democracia e direitos

O processo de globalização, as opções de desenvolvimento hoje muito marcadas pela “austeridade” no contexto de políticas económicas de mercado liberalizado, onde tudo tende a ser mercantilizado, colocam os direitos dos cidadãos, desde logo os laborais e os sociais, sob grandes tensões. Com intervenções da Europa e da América Latina proceder-se-á a uma troca de ideias e interpretações sobre problemas diversos das sociedades e sobre questões do direito numa perspectiva da defesa dos valores democráticos e cívicos.

The role of small towns in building Medieval Europe

It is our aim to promote an approach to urban studies which, repeatedly but discontinuously, appears on the horizon of historical, geographical, sociological and anthropological research, always with a certain stigma as an inferior and unattractive subject of analysis. Inferior, because each time it has been considered on a comparative scale, it comes up against the variability of definitions of its designating attribute. It is unattractive inasmuch as it is not satisfied by scientific approaches rooted in the intention to capture decisive and major development processes. By combining several scientific areas, this conference aims to give a voice to the small towns of a Medieval Europe, increasingly perceived as "moving".

Activisms in Africa

International Conference

Many African countries experience a context in which society is constantly faced against the State or private corporations. In this situation, civil society organizations become key players into continent’s political chessboard. Acting in various fields and often seeking non-traditional forms of organization, they pose new challenges to their analysis and interpretation. To meet these defiances, the Centro de Estudos Internacionais of the Instituto Universitário de Lisboa (CEI-IUL) promote between 12^th and 13^th January 2017, the International Conference Activisms in Africa, which will discuss the new profiles of social activism in Africa and the perspectives of change they bring.

Europe as a Global Actor

The European Union’s role in the last decades – and especially in the last few years – has evolved from mere economic cooperation between its Member States to an overtly outward projection of shared values and ideas. In the context of new changes in the global security environment and of the subsequent development of new tools and approaches in the European Union’s external action, including the first steps towards a new European Security Strategy, the Centro de Estudos Internacionais at Instituto Universitário de Lisboa (ISCTE-IUL) is organizing an international conference, to be held in Lisbon, on May 23rd and 24th 2016. This interdisciplinary conference aims to understand the trajectories and potential of the EU as a global actor in areas related, but not limited, to security and defense.

Medieval Europe in Motion 3

L’objectif principal de ce colloque est d’analyser les phénomènes de circulation et de mobilité des élites lettrées (clercs, universitaires, praticiens), des enlumineurs, des manuscrits, des textes, des modèles artistiques et des idées liés à la pratique du droit dans le territoire européen avec une attention particulière pour les contrées méridionales (péninsule Ibérique, France du Midi et Italie). La recherche qui soutien l'idée de ce colloque dérive du projet de post-doctorat de Maria Alessandra Bilotta, qui vise à étudier les manuscrits juridiques enluminés conservés au Portugal et à mettre en évidence les liens artistiques et culturels entre le Portugal et le reste de l'Europe, avec un accent particulier sur les manuscrits des régions du sud (de la péninsule ibérique, sud de la France et de la péninsule italienne).
