History and polemics: historiographical debates and the public space

Ever since history became an academic knowledge, historiographical debates have been exceptional moments of construction, condensation and dissensus, often resulting in historiographical turns. Controversies around specific themes have divided entire fields of knowledge production, bringing into light different, often contrasting conceptions, methodologies and practices of historical knowledge. Such debates were, at the same time, moments in which the description and interpretation of the past represented a public intervention in the present, in which the defense of a certain way of making sense of history was also a way of taking of sides in a specific contemporary political discussion. Historiographical polemics were therefore moments in which historiographical knowledge had to confront in the public space other approaches to the past, thus making visible, and challenging, the paradigms that rule the historical discipline and public history.

Images and Liturgy in Portugal in the Middle Age

The seminar Images and Liturgy in Portugal in the Middle Age, organized by the CEAACP Multidisciplinary Group Study in Arts (University of Coimbra), in partnership with the Association of Portuguese Archaeologists / Carmo Archaeological Museum, is part of the set of project initiatives of Carla Varela Fernandes’ Postdoc (Sculptures of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries in collections of Portuguese museums. An imperative approach to a broader knowledge of the scientific reality). It aims the presentation and discussion of recent studies and reflections on works of Romanic and Gothic art existing in Portugal. It is intended to address the medieval images as part of the liturgical rituals and the buildings they were designed for. On the other hand, we’ll try to provide advances in the knowledge on the means as an iconographic innovation or aesthetic generated at a given location "moves" and appears in other geographies, serving similar purposes.

Literatura e turismo

As últimas três décadas têm sido férteis em estudos e publicações sobre a questão da literatura de viagens, abordando a viagem nos seus mais variados sentidos. Já a relação entre literatura e turismo, que passa pela literatura de viagens, mas não se esgota de forma alguma nesta, não foi ainda alvo de um estudo sistemático e intensivo. Um trabalho que é fundamental para a afirmação da literatura e turismo enquanto área de estudo e para a demonstração da sua importância, nomeadamente no que concerne à valorização de um património tangível e intangível que de outro modo, por falta de conexões, pode ser subvalorizado e/ou esquecido.
