As the world signals its 50 th anniversary in 2020, the Symposium (Re)thinking Earth: From Representations of Nature to Climate Change Fiction , aims to bring together an...

Conference website: https://beatlesinlisbon.wordpress.com Half a century after the Beatles’ break-up (1970) and forty years since John Lennon’s murder in New York (Dec. 1980), the ‘Fab Four’s popularity remains a global phenomenon, bridging up generations across spatial, linguistic, social and cultural boundaries. However, with a few notable exceptions, Academia as a whole has hitherto failed to pay critical attention to the Liverpool band and its manifold contributions to contemporary...

This project aims to structure and to develop the field of World Literature in Portugal, based on two theoretical assumptions: the comparative perspective and the estrangement of reading. It currently develops a set of anthologies (3 vols) on World Literature in Portuguese, based on the assumption that the world-scope of literatures in Portuguese, in terms of geographical spread (Europe, South America, Africa, and Asia) and of number of speakers (270 million) may be considered as a paradigmatic...

Empires are spaces of circulation of people and goods between colonies and their metropolitan centres, but they are also spaces of global circulation. A variety of cultural forms were circulated within the space of the Portuguese empire as well as between empires and non-imperial spaces, thus affecting representations of the world and everyday practices. This interdisciplinary project engages history, anthropology, postcolonial studies and cultural studies in an attempt to understand how the...

The main goal of this project (besides critically bringing to light the literary and scientific production on India from the 19th and 20th centuries) is to determine the extent to which the Portuguese accumulation of knowledge on the Orient can be linked to strategies of power in the context of Portugal-Asia relations. The immediate results of this project include: the mapping of literary and scientific production beginning around 1825 – year in which Camões by Almeida Garret was...

This research project aims to contribute to a better understanding of how national identities are constructed in Portugal, Angola and Mozambique, before and after the Carnation Revolution (25 April 1974), in the complex tension between colonial power and colony. Neither the identity of the (ex)colonizer nor the (ex)colonized can be fully understood without taking in account the dialogue with the other(s) . Politics and literature play a significant role in the construction of national...

Description By showcasting divers materials referring to Iberian literary relations (images, texts, secondary bibliography), this project aims at contributing both to the field of Iberian Studies, and to Digital Humanities in Portugal. This project, then, derives from two complementary lines of research: on the one hand, it is the result of the study of Iberian literatures as a complex cultural polysystem, with close interrelations that trascend and cross over national boundaries; on the...

The TECOP project focuses on the study of Portuguese Orientalism within a comparative and interdisciplinary framework. It seeks to give visibility to the Portuguese orientalists taking part in the International Congresses of Orientalists and to reconstruct the cultural, intellectual, and/or scientific networks formed via their participation in these congresses and in the scientific societies that supported them. From 1873 to 1973, there were officially 29 meetings. 24 took place in Europe...

The future is a contested terrain and one that has of recent begun to be reclaimed from essentially economist-numerical perspectives by thinkers in the humanities (e.g. Appadurai 2013) and the arts, where it is both theorised and imaginatively constructed. The recent Afrofuturist imaginary is an increasingly noticeable field in these debates and manifestations, requesting as it does the envisioning of a future through an artistic, scientific, and technological Black lense. Afrofuturism is not a...
