  Freud, a century after Totem and Taboo

  Anthropology, culture and cognition

  Although hardly avoiding intense criticism by anthropologists such as Boas and Malinowski, Freud’s theories did, however, have a profound impact upon anthropology, receiving an enthusiastic reception among Culture and Personality theorists during the middle decades of the 20th century. Leading anthropologists of this trend relied on Freud’s contributions to develop approaches based on the relationship between culture and personality, expanding their views on the importance of culture in personality formation, on the constitution of culture patterns and on the formulation of national character. One hundred years after the publication of Totem and Taboo (1913), this two-day seminar seeks to address the influence of Freud’s legacy in contemporary anthropological thought. It also aims to explore the new interface between the two disciplines, namely through the recent work produced on kinship and on the cognitive approaches to the study of religion.

  Estudos wittgensteinianos

  Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889-1951), filósofo austríaco, naturalizado britânico, foi um dos principais atores da virada linguística na filosofia do século XX. Suas principais contribuições foram feitas nos campos da lógica, filosofia da linguagem, filosofia da matemática e filosofia da mente. Muitos o consideram o filósofo mais importante do século passado. O Grupo Luso-Brasileiro de Estudos Wittgensteinianos (GRULBEW) organiza um colóquio anual luso-brasileiro sobre Wittgenstein, que este ano terá lugar em Lisboa, dias 9 e 10 de julho.
