Within the framework of the research project WomenLit / Women’s Literatuure: Memories, Peripheries and Resistance in the Luso-Afro-Brazilian Atlantic (PTDC/LLT- LES/0858/2021), the international conference Women’s Literature: Memories, Peripheries and Resistance in the Afro-Luso-Brazilian Atlantic discusses contemporary women’s literatures. The aim is to examine their representations of colonial (post-) memories, canon-peripheral positionings of literary and artistic productions and various literary and artistic strategies that can be understood as forms of resistance against hegemonic memory narratives in the Afro-Luso-Brazilian Atlantic.
