Arts and Models of Democracy in post-authoritarian Iberian Peninsula

This two-day conference aims to innovatively question how artistic practices and institutions formed ways of imagining democracy and by what means arts and culture participate in the wider social struggle to define freedom and equality for the post-Estado Novo and post-Francoist period: how did artistic practices instantiate ideas of democracy in this context? Inversely, how did such democratic values inform artistic practice? How did Portuguese and Spanish artists and intellectuals negotiate between creative autonomy and social responsibility? And more broadly, what is the role of culture in a democracy? The core purpose of the conference is to bring scholars together from different subject areas and exploring any artistic practice (literature, visual and plastic arts, cinema and music).

Theorica 4. The construction of theoretical discourse

Le programme de recherche « Theorica » se propose, en réunissant de grands médiévistes et des doctorants, de revisiter l’idée reçue selon laquelle le Moyen Âge serait un temps asystématique et par conséquent inapte à toute théorisation. Ainsi, on se propose d’étudier comment le texte ibérique médiéval arrive à construire un discours théorique selon des paramètres et des modes d’intellection qui lui sont propres. Le quatrième volet du programme de recherche international « Theorica », dirigé par Carlos Heusch, est consacré cette fois à la théorisation du genre dans le Moyen Âge hispanique : comment peut-on penser le masculin et le féminin à l'intérieur des schémas de pensée médiévaux ?
