  Call for papers - Geography

  The politics and geopolitics of translation

  The multilingual circulation of knowledge and transnational histories of geography

  In the last fifty years, the field of the history of geography has moved from an approach dominated by National Schools to an attention to the circulation of knowledge in its multiple scales. The history of science and of geography have in the last decades incorporated concepts such as transit, networks, mobilities, the transnational, circulation, centre of calculation, spaces of knowledge, geographies of science, spatial mobility of knowledge, geographies of reading and geographies of the book. More recently, a turn has emerged towards considering the dynamics and necessities of decolonizing the history of geography. This work is turning the field of the history of geography into one of the most dynamic areas of the discipline. Yet we suggest that questions of language and translation have remained under-determined in this new field. Translation and writing have not received the same attention as, for instance, departmental histories, sites of museums, laboratories, botanic gardens, and scientific societies, for example. We suggest, therefore, that new perspectives opened up by translation studies can open new windows on the history of geography.

  Conference, symposium - Language

  Alves Redol e as ciências sociais: a literatura e o real, os processos e os agentes

  O objectivo deste colóquio é convocar investigadores de ciências sociais e humanas para olhar para Alves Redol - o homem, a obra e a sua produção -, bem como para as conjunturas nacionais e internacionais que se reflectem nos contextos tratados nos seus livros. Pretendemos que seja lido por antropólogos, historiadores, geógrafos, sociólogos, etnógrafos, folcloristas, etc. e que sejam as realidades, os processos e os agentes sociais que se tornem o fulcro da análise, numa ou em várias obras do autor.
