Santiago de Compostela

Eschatology is one of the central components of medieval Christian culture. The end of the world, the Last Judgment, salvation, Messianism, the Antichrist, the Apocalypticism and millenarianism are inescapable elements in what we may generally describe as "Medieval eschatology". It is the intention of the International Conference "The Medieval Eschatology" to provide a venue for reflecting on these as well as other eschatological issues that may be proposed. This can be done analytically or descriptively from both a practical and theoretical approach.

The epoch of space. State and new perspectives

For centuries, the study of time was one of the main academic interests in the field of Humanities. However, in the second half of the 20^th century, most scholars and philosophers shifted their focus to the question of space. The interest in studying this in the field of the arts has increased significantly in recent years, and is especially noticeable in the case of literary creations.The growing influence of ecocriticism and geocriticism is especially noticeable in digital humanities. The bridges recently built between these fields are already proving to be productive, as they have led to the development of new tools, approaches, and methodologies, such as deep mapping techniques and the spatial humanities. How have the disciplines evolved in recent years? Do we need to redefine the key concepts regarding space and place? Has our relationship with territory changed? Have we produced new ways of inhabiting space?

La autoría

Reflexiones teóricas y análisis de las prácticas

La presente convocatoria apunta a un abordaje amplio de los temas relacionados con la autoría, sin límites de disciplinas o dominios, considerando las variaciones que experimentan, en el ámbito de la producción historiográfica, desde la Edad Media hasta el mundo actual. Se propone como objetivo profundizar en la reflexión crítica sobre el concepto de autor, de nombre biográfico, de obra, de escritura y de sus diferentes estratos y relaciones, así como de los contextos de producción y de recepción de los mismos. Las contribuciones que se presenten, pueden analizar estos – y otros temas asociados - ya sea a partir de un análisis disciplinario sobre un tópico en particular, o en base al estudio de casos específicos que ilustren problemas significativos.

Conference, symposium - History

The revolutionary wave of the New Left in Latin America and Europe (1960-1990)

The workshop seeks to open an academic dialogue about the origins, development and decline of the wave of violence of the revolutionary New Left in Latin America and Europe. It aims to favor the adoption of transnational perspectives to explore influences and links – ideological, material and personal – between organizations and revolutionary groups within and between the two continents. We especially pursue to delve into issues such as the spread of ideas and repertoires of action, the collaboration, support or solidarity between organizations, and comparative perspectives that would allow us to find possible common patterns of emergence, development and disappearance of armed groups within the wave of the « New Left ».The activity will have two parts.

James Zebedee, the "translatio" and the Jacobean pilgrimages

7th International Colloquium Compostela

The 7th International Colloquium Compostela aims at analysing the myth of the "translatio" of the body of Saint James from Palestina to Santiago de Compostela and its impact in the historical construction of the Jacobean pilgrimages. As in the former editions, focusing on an interdisciplinary approach, the Colloquium analyzes the state of the art in the archeological research of Palestinian and Compostela in the early centuries, the studies about the traditions of the translatio, the iconography and the literary and social impact of the "translatio" and the current reality of pilgrimages to Compostella.
