Challenges, Trends and Research: Audiovisual Screenwriting
From connoisseurs, amateurs, consecrated authors, curious people, to people interested in professionalizing, we have seen the growing interest in Screenplay Writing for Cinema and Audiovisual products, in the last twenty years, in Brazil. Initially, slowly, but then at an exponential pace as a result of market changes, the new perspectives provided by technologies, the possibilities for new expressive and participative experiences, the diversification of distribution formats and platforms and, mainly, the easy access to information on the topic that has fueled this trend. In the professional aspect, the consolidation of ABRA, Brazilian Screenwriters Authors Association - in 2017, resulting from the merger of two previous associations, elevated the professional screenwriter from a previously unstable status and highlighted him towards his autonomy.

Call for papers - Ethnology, anthropology
American Studies international congress (CIA 2021)
À l’occasion du LVIIe congrés internacional des américanistes qui se déroulera du 19 au 23 juillet 2021 à Foz do Iguaçu au Brésil, nous vous invitons à participer à notre groupe de travail : Femmes, amérindiennes et leaders sur la scène politique. Parcours, pratiques et rôles en Amérique latine. Dans ce groupe de travail, nous nous intéresserons aux femmes politiques amérindiennes, à leurs parcours, à leurs positions, à leurs discours et à leurs pratiques. Plus particulièrement, nous nous interrogerons sur la place et le rôle des femmes amérindiennes dans la scène politique actuelle. Existe-t-il une politique au féminin ? Que font-elles différemment ? Pourquoi ont-elles pris le devant de la scène ? Quel rapport au mouvement amérindien encore très masculin est-ce que cela montre ? Pourquoi les femmes leaders seraient-elles moins connues dans l’histoire ?

#MariellePresente - Transnational Resistances
The Gender and Diversity Journal, a feminist and queer review from the northeastern region of Brazil, invites everyone to submit articles, essays, interviews, field journals, reports and other texts for the special issue entitled "#MariellePresente: Transnational Resistances". The texts must describe and analyze the transnational responses following the assassination of the Brazilian Marielle Franco. She was a black woman from the favela, political activist, feminist and lesbian. She was murdered at the corner of a street in Rio de Janeiro in March 2018. Given the political nature of her assassination, many actions denouncing the crime were organized around the world.

Clomparative perspectives in the sociology of professional groups, the sociology of gender and the the sociology of migrations
The object of this session is the sociological theorization of the relation between gender and profession. Today, the question is less the exclusion of women from work defined as professional, considering their feinization, than their routine inclusion in ill-defined support roles. The presentations could cross several approaches (of sociology of professional groups, gender, migrations, intersectionality...) to deal with issues like :inequalities in women's access to certain professions, male resistance to women's carrers, delegation of "dirty work", the specific and cultural construction of a masculinist vision of profession work, how professions professes gender, the effects of liberalisation of professions (in many sectors like Health, Culture or Law) on their feminization...

Revista Brasileira de Estudos da Presença
Des artistes de la scène, des performeurs, des médiateurs, etc., travaillent dans le contexte du transgenre. De plus en plus, la scène et la performance contemporaines sont prises par des artistes transgenres et/ou par des thèmes tels que les identités non binaires, les mouvements queer, l’intersexualité, parmi bien d’autres possibilités qui bouleversent les limites épistémologiques connues jusqu’à présent. D’un point de vue théorique, il ne s’agit pas seulement d’étudier les performances des personnes qui ne s’identifient pas au genre socialement imposé, qui vivent en dehors du binaire, qui ont changé de sexe, ou encore, qui vivent et interprètent des genres non binaires. Il s’agit plutôt de penser comment de telles performances quotidiennes imposent un réarrangement épistémologique de l’idée même de performance. Qu’est-ce que les personnes transgenres apportent comme indicateurs à la performance ? Comment les performances transgenres élargissent-elles ce que nous savons sur l’art, la politique, la résistance, la performativité ? Le champ des relations entre identité transgenre et performance est multiple et ce ne sont là que quelques-unes des questions possibles.

LabEx Céba "Plastic" theme school
L’école thématique PLASTIC a pour objectif de proposer un cadre de recherche pluridisciplinaire sur la conceptualisation socioécologique de la notion de planification spatiale (territoriale) dite « résiliente ». Le caractère polysémique du concept de planification sous-tend qu’il s’agit bien plus d’une diversité de savoir-faire que de généralités théoriques. Dans sa dimension environnementale, elle favorise l’émergence, la mise en œuvre et la diffusion des savoir-faire qui privilégient l’opérationnalisation des préceptes du développement durable. La durabilité est actuellement traitée par l’économie écologique à partir de la notion de « substitualité limitée » dudit « capital naturel ». Contrairement à la stabilité inhérente à la notion de durabilité, dans cette nouvelle perspective, la question de la limite y est fréquemment abordée sous l’angle de la résilience.

Afro-decolonial perspectives - practical and theoretical issues
Representations of Africans and Afro-descendants in school manuals
Ce colloque-atelier est le fruit des résultats d'un précédent colloque qui a eu lieu à Saint-Louis à l'université Gaston Berger au Sénégal. Son objectif ne sera pas la création de manuels scolaires au format papier mais la création d’une plateforme digitale où les membres du réseau pourront mettre en ligne des supports de tous types (textes, photos, vidéos, audio, peintures, etc.) en rapport avec les cultures africaines et afro-diasporiques. Ainsi, chaque enseignant, animateur culturel, artiste, éducateur aura accès aux sources primaires partout dans le monde. Cependant, cette initiative n’empêche pas à postériori la création de livres au format papier. C’est pourquoi l’optique de cette rencontre sera beaucoup plus ciblée sur les pratiques pédagogiques et didactiques.

Conference, symposium - Modern
X D. João VI Museum Seminar
The ways in which we understand this figure in the history of art are the result of the visual and textual discourses built upon it. Its representations are present in portraits and self-portraits, sculptures, paintings, engravings and objects. It is also built through artistic criticism, the press, caricature, pieces of literature, biographies, or autobiographies. From texts of self-promotion to cinematographic works, we are interested in all forms of representation of the artist's figure, both visual and textual. Our temporal range is ample, reflections on the artist in diverse historical places and periods, including contemporaneity, are emphasized in the Brazilian and Latin American context, without ignoring comparative perspectives. Our starting point is the following question: In what ways have the transformations of perception about artists and their meanings (social, cultural, symbolic and political) marked the writings of art history?

Conference, symposium - Modern
Art Collections in Portugal and Brazil in the 19th and 20th centuries
What are the representations of the artist's figure and how have they transformed over time? Intellectuals or artisans, martyrs or demons, naive or revolutionary, madmen or philosophers? Possibly, artists have been and still are characters in which several layers of interpretation coexist and blend. In this X edition of the D. João VI Museum Seminar, we present the theme "artist’s represetations", in parallel to the exhibition organized by Pinacoteca do Estado de São Paulo and the Brazilian Museum of Fine Arts, with the objective of investigating the historical constructions of the artist's image, bringing the reflection to the Brazilian and Latin American context, past and present. This has been extensively explored in French and English literature and acquires special relevance in this specific geographic universe, marked by the social distinctions concerning manual labor and the late formation of the art medium in the modern sense, after the formation of the academies and an artistic promotion system through exhibitions and the art market.

Circulation and decentralisation of arts and literature
2nd symposium of the Guiana Shield
Loin des centres politiques, économiques, intellectuels européens et brésiliens, la région des Guyanes est un espace hétérogène composé de pays et de territoires rassemblant des caractéristiques uniques. L'université Fédérale d'Amapá (UNIFAP), et l’université de la Guyane française (UG), parce qu'elles sont présentes dans cette localité, sont capables de rassembler les recherches produites dans et sur la région. En ce sens, la IIe journée d’études du Plateau des Guyanes : Circulations et décentralisation des arts et de la littérature s'inscrit dans la perspective de la réflexion sur le « décentrement » de la connaissance. Cette posture implique de réfléchir au rôle des théories et des pratiques académiques dans un contexte situé hors du centre, sans pour autant nier la relation centre-périphérie.

Conference, symposium - America
Thinking Latin-American Right-Wings in the XXth Century
This conference is the continuation of two previous conferences held in France (2014) and Argentina (2016) which saw the gradual emergence of a community of researchers working on the questions of identities, ideas, practices and discourses of actors and movements from Latin American rightwing. It is difficult to establish the precise conceptual limits of the rightwing because of the heterogeneity and plurality of the groups and movements that have historically been part of this family and which are thus characterized by the presence of diverse political traditions. It is therefore essential to imagine flexible boundaries when considering rightwing history and taking into account the changes it experienced over time. Our purpose is not to establish canonical definitions, but rather to contribute to set general frameworks for this field of study whose historical relevance and actuality are no longer to be demonstrated, but whose limits and fundamental characteristics are still debated.

This dossier aims to receive proposals focused in the theme in its complexity and variety, prioritizing the specific relations between music and other artistic manifestations.

Vilém Flusser, Walter Benjamin – The technical ambiguities
“Artefilosofia” Journal
In different moments of his work, Walter Benjamin reflects upon the question of technology and related issues such as work as the mediation between man and nature, conducting his critical analysis of progress. He says: “What’s the idea? to speak of progress to a world sinking into the rigidity of death. (...) The concept of progress must be grounded in the idea of catastrophe. That things are 'status quo' is the catastrophe. It is not an ever-present possibility but what in each case is given.” Marxism will also be reviewed by him according to his critical conception of progress: “Marx said that revolutions are the locomotive of world history.

The ergological approach : assessment and perspectives
Afin d’établir un bilan et de tracer des perspectives, cet appel à communications pour le IVe c ongrès de la Société internationale d’ergologie (SIE) - qui aura lieu à Brasilia, Brésil, les 27, 28 et 29 août 2018 - s’appuie sur la diversité des travaux des différents groupes dans le monde qui mènent des recherches en convoquant la démarche ergologique. Rappelons que les recherches qui se réclament de la démarche ergologique ne sauraient se réduire aux seuls travaux menés dans un cadre universitaire ou effectués par des chercheurs professionnels. Elles incluent par principe toutes les initiatives qui ont pour objectif d’illustrer et de développer les connaissances sur l’activité humaine.
