Dear all,
The sixth edition of the Congress of Portuguese Association of
Anthropology will take place at *University of Coimbra, Portugal, on 2-4
June 2016.*
We invite researchers to submit proposals for papers to the Panel (number
T076) entitle *Re-signifying Experiences and Implying the Future: Cinema,
Photography, and Music in Postcolonial Studies.*
*Short Abstract*
Cinema, photography and music can act as political tools of oppression and
emancipation, having defined the relationships between colonizers and
colonized, the anti-colonial struggles and the post-independence eras.
How can images and music be agents of identities and memories that are
crucial to re-signification and transformation within different
socio-historical, political contexts?
*Long Abstract*
The analysis of cultural expressions as social practices has acquired
relevance in surveys based on qualitative methodologies. Those studies
inquire about the complexity of intersubjective processes which are lived
in contexts of oppression.
Taking into account the performative and political dimension of culture,
particularly of photography, film and music, we intend to reflect on their
role in the production of discourses that are useful in the management and
representation of identities, as well as to social differentiation, and
that will create perceptions, tastes, walls, senses of belonging,
exclusions, contradictions, dialogues, awareness and memories.
Given the potentially panoptic nature of ethnographic surveys and archives,
the use of images and of 'native traditional' music collections was a
privileged instrument in the representation ‒ and thereby creation ‒of
cultural and social identities crucial to the legitimacy of the colonial
project. Simultaneously, images and music participated in the formation of
a counter-hegemonic awareness, decisive in the struggle for liberation and
post-independence, where the photography, cinema and music were important
symbolic means of political autonomy.
In this session we also intend to ask about the implications, in the
present and the future, of the imagery and sound fragments lived in the
colonial past, and their possible absence from the official narrative of
History.
The submission of proposals - in Portuguese, English or Spanish – must
include: Name, institutional affiliation, email address, Title, Short
abstract (approx. 50 words), Long abstract (approx. 250 words).
Each paper my have one or two proponents.
The proposals should be sent to our emails *until 15 December 2015*:
