Throughout history, humans have been using different tools to promote and disseminate knowledge. Languages, the arts, literature and oral narratives have been some of the main elements of cultural production, circulation of ideas and transmission of memory.
In a joint action between CHAM – the Center for Humanities of NOVA FCSH-UAc, the ISCED – Luanda, and the Movimento Literário e Artístico Lev’ Arte, this conference, which pays tribute to the Angolan writers Ruy Duarte de Carvalho and António Jacinto, wishes to be a space of dialogue and construction of new international networks.
In this space, we’ll address contemporary cultural topics which are transversal to different thematic areas. The thematic range varies from the linguistic policies in Portuguese-speaking countries to the critical problematization of the concept of Lusophony, from the impact of the press and the medias to intellectual history, history of books and culture. Communications about publishing, the arts and the impact of women’s writing to the understanding of ideas which were, have been, or are still, expressed through the Portuguese language are also welcomed.
