Representations of the self and the other in satirical images

From the French Revolution to the present day

Le colloque organisée par l'Institut d'Histoire Contemporaine de NOVA FCSH cherchera à répondre à des questions telles que: quelles idées communes, quels buts et quelles attitudes exprimés par la presse satirique ont façonné le concept de nation? Qui étaient les "autres" représentés par l’image satirique par opposition à "nous"? Comment les visions et les représentations de «l'autre» par opposition au «soi» exprimées par l'image satirique ont-elles aidé à définir les identités nationales, à construire la notion de communauté et à façonner les stéréotypes nationaux ?

Voyage and Cosmopolitanism: From the Island to the World

We intend to problematize various issues in the current scholarship of the humanities and social sciences from inter- and cross-cultural perspectives: cultural heritage, culture and globalization, identity and the sense of belonging, the impact of (re)writing literatures and other arts within the ethics of "reliance", proposed by Edgar Morin, and of the universalizing singularities, in Alain Badiou's view.

Dogs in the imagination. Literature, cinema and graphic novels

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, sous ses différentes modalités et ses multiples points de vue. Au long des siècles, il révèle la présence constante et proéminente de la figure du chien, dont les liens affectifs avec l’humain sont attestés par les découvertes archéologiques préhistoriques, depuis le jour où les premiers loups ou chacals se sont approchés des hommes chasseurs-collecteurs. Il est parfaitement possible de suivre, au long des siècles, l’évolution de la pensée humaine et des mentalités, par l’observation des modalités de figuration du chien non seulement dans les mythes, les légendes, les fables, les églogues, les lais, les contes, les romans, la bande dessinée, les dessins animés, le cinéma, mais aussi dans tout type de discours (philosophique, théologique, scientifique, etc).

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).

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.

An alternative Francophone world - Francophone culture and its global reach

Culture francophone à portée globale

Alors qu’il est souvent question dans l’essayisme (Baverez, Compagnon, Jourde, …) – tant français qu’étranger –, d’un déclin accentué de la culture française, ce qui ne veut sûrement pas dire de la culture en français, plusieurs produits, phénomènes et manifestations culturels et symboliques francophones rendent compte d’une surprenante vitalité et créativité, souvent reconnue et relayée sur le plan de la culture globale, qui prélude à un dépassement de la portée exclusivement « hexagonale » du fait culturel en français.

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.
