  Figurations and Interlocutions: The Feminine Question in Walter Benjamin’s Oeuvre

  Artefilosofia Journal

  Even though he was a philosopher, not a poet, Walter Benjamin (1892-1940) thought poetically, says Hannah Arendt about his friend and life-long correspondent. In his oeuvre, the feminine appears through recurrent images whose meaning may vary according to the context, in different figurations and fictions. In agreement with these fictional figurations, one of his first essays presents the question of what a feminine culture or a feminine language would be (Metaphysik der Jugend, GS, II, I, 1977).

  Masked balls in Guyana and elsewhere. Identities and the carnival imagination in question

  Le bal paré-masqué guyanais, rencontre culturelle entre le bal travesti bourgeois et la danse traditionnelle populaire et endiablée, a connu nombre d’évolutions au fil des années. Ce colloque propose de faire le point sur les fondements historiques et anthropologiques de cet évènement carnavalesque, sur le rôle des acteurs qui s’y engagent, sur ses enjeux socio-économique, politique et culturel dans le contexte d’une société plurielle et mouvante. Des questionnements valables pour toute autre forme de bals masqués saisie hors du territoire guyanais.

  Rewriting: logic of repetition?

  III International Conference in Narratives

  The third International Conference in Narratives, organized by Universidad EAFIT (Medellín, Colombia) and Università degli Studi di Padova, proposes rewriting as an object of reflection from the arts, humanities, social sciences and communication sciences. To interrogate the gesture of writing a text again, it involves accounting for an operation that, in its apparent simplicity, shows the experience of time and repetition, the recording of memory, the tension between imitation and difference, and the means of reproduction and creation. Along its relationships, objects and notions that it implies, the gesture of rewriting is exemplary and heuristic; it has become a model for understanding various phenomena and cultural practices.
