Politicizing the Future of the (Semantic) Web
Philoweb 2015
The relationship between the Web and philosophy is now at a crucial turning point. While a group of philosophers and philosophically-influenced scholars are increasingly interested in the Web, we are facing unprecedented challenges around its future that requires concerted efforts between researcher and disciplines to be properly addressed. With both Internet governance and the very architecture of the Web undergoing rapid change, now is the time for a philosophy of the Web to help to fulfill the Web’s full potential, expanding upon its fundamental principles in new terrains ranging from mass surveillance to the impact of the Internet of things.

Contemporary Research on Intertextuality in Video Games
While intertextuality is an ever-present phenomenon in video games and connects to other media and other popular culture products, there are few articles or doctoral thesis related to this subject, and to date no monograph or collective books. This book proposal is an answer to this lack of publications on intertextuality in video games. This book will aim to provide relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research findings in the area. The impact on game studies is important because it allows us to understand: the relationship of games to other media; a part of the motivation of the player to engage in a game; the ways in which the culture industry can use this phenomenon to improve the quality and attractiveness of games (for example, the creation of derivative works such as novels, comics and cartoons).

Sports, genders and sexualities
Social, Ethical and Political Challenges
As expressions of cultural embodiment, sexualities, genders and sports can be analyzed as a mirror of societies’ transformations and developments. The analysis of sports, gender and sexuality can be a key to analyze changes and persistence's in social interactions and collective representations. This workshop seeks to create a discursive space for contributors to explore the social, ethical and political criticalities arising in the interaction between sports, gender and sexualities in contemporary societies. We invite papers aimed at both understanding the relationships between sports, genders and sexualities, and using them as a tool to analyse broader social, ethical and political transformations. As such, such, we hope to provide both critical evaluation of current theories and paradigms by which sport, gender and sexuality are understood and encourage the opening of new horizons for critical investigations.

Call for papers - Epistemology and methodology
Digital Humanities in Portugal: building bridges and breaking barriers in the digital age
Discussion about the role of the Humanities in academia and society has a long history. The confluence of this debate with the changes brought about by digital technology is not new either: one cannot speak of "new technologies" for the Humanities when many researchers turned to digital methods at least four decades ago, in disciplines as diverse as Linguistics, History or Literary Studies. The Conference “Digital Humanities in Portugal” aims precisely to stimulate these intersections, opening up a forum for discussion and sharing of research results or ongoing projects in this field of knowledge.
