  The reception of the Spanish Golden Age in Germanophone countries

  Le colloque propose de s’interroger, de manière diachronique et comparatiste, sur la chronologie, les formes et les enjeux de la réception du Siècle d’Or dans les pays germanophones : Certaines périodes et certains genres se sont-ils révélés particulièrement propices à ces échanges ? Dans quel contexte (politique, culturel, idéologique) ? Qui sont les médiateurs favorisant cette réception (des traducteurs, des artistes, des mécènes, des voyageurs, des écrivains…) ? Quelles images de l’autre pays ont-ils transmises dans leurs œuvres ? Quelles fonctions la réception du Siècle d’Or a-t-elle eues (enjeux esthétiques, idéologiques…) ? Quelle en a été la fécondité ?

  Imágenes, devociones y prácticas religiosas

  La Europa del sur (1800-1960)

  Este coloquio pretende analizar las modalidades de difusión de las imágenes devocionales en el marco de la evolución de las prácticas religiosas en Europa en los siglos XIX y XX, cuyas repercusiones sociales y culturales en la Europa mediterránea fueron considerables, aunque aún poco exploradas por la historiografía contemporánea española. Para ello, este encuentro reúne a los principales especialistas europeos con el fin de ahondar en temas como el auge de las peregrinaciones; la producción industrial de imágenes piadosas y su circulación entre las clases populares; el fomento por la iglesia de nuevos cultos; la confrontación entre modernidad laica y devociones y ritos tradicionales o el vandalismo iconoclasta.

  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).
