Animal figures in literature, cinema and comic books
Littérature, cinéma, bande-dessinée
Depuis l’aube de la création esthétique, dont la scène primitive a lieu dans les cavernes préhistoriques, l’imaginaire humain a incorporé la condition animale en ses différentes configurations et sous de multiples points de vue. Il est possible de suivre à la trace l’évolution de la pensée humaine et des mentalités tout au long des siècles moyennant l’observation des modalités de figuration des animaux aussi bien dans les mythes, les légendes, les fables, les églogues, les lais, les contes, les romans, la bande dessinée, les dessins animés, que dans le discours non-fictionnel (philosophique, théologique, scientifique, etc).

Mediterranean Cultures and Societies
Knowledge, Health and Tourism
The Mediterranean is a complex combination of ideas, feelings, imageries, cultures, ways of life, cultivated for centuries and still cultivated in this “sea (not ocean) amongst lands”; which was called mare nostrum by Romans and which could still be called in such a way if we understand nostrum in a different way: as a reference to us, human beings. The aim of this conference is to increase awareness about the Mediterranean as a departure and arrival point for the construction of a pluralistic society.

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.

Intellectuals of the Right and Politics in Europe and Latin America
During the interwar period, authoritarian movements and regimes of the right - both of the "old" authoritarian and of the "new" radical varieties - professed their faith in national values but at the same time saw themselves as national agents of an otherwise international intellectual and political wave. Starting from the mid-1920s, a growing sense of shared goals, commonality of vision, and sense of history-making mission led them to draw on each other for inspiration and support. It soon became clear that these movements and regimes embraced ideas from each other, actively studying each other’s discourses and initiatives in the political field. The conference aims to promote a different understanding of the role of intellectuals of the interwar right who perceived themselves as transnational agents “at the service of an idea”.

The study and design of landscape as a methodological problem
First Iberian Colloquium on Landscape
Landscapes present themselves as sceneries we have inherited, where we live, and from where we draw the resources needed to subsist as a civilisation and as a species. The result of our actions on this heritage will be the legacy to our descendants. In the beginning of the third millennium, the interest in the topic of landscape is increasingly important, transforming this discipline in a research platform where several fields of knowledge intersect. The aim of this colloquium is to reflect about the diversity of multidisciplinary aspects, analytical methods, and intervention techniques related to the study of landscape, establishing a forum focused on the future relationship between humanity and landscape.

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.

Transições. Percursos, linguagens e estruturas em tempos de mudança
O ritmo acelerado das mudanças históricas marcou a época contemporânea e, em particular, as últimas cinco décadas. No âmbito do século XX, sucederam-se experiências de mudança com tipologias e relevâncias variáveis, tendo afectado não só as estruturas (estados, instituições, partidos, etc) como também os indivíduos e a própria linguagem. Poderá, assim, afirmar-se que as mudanças, ou as transições, numa interpretação mais abrangente do termo, foram centrais nos processos históricos. Contudo, poucas propostas oferecidas pela ciência histórica têm refletido sobre este fenómeno – as transições e as suas consequências – num contexto geográfico e temporal alargado.
