Power, Resistencia & Transformaçao

17 &18-May, 2012

Submissions due Feb. 20

From the Arab Spring to Los Indignados in Spain, student protests in Chile, Colombia, and Puerto Rico to the Occupy movements throughout North America, we are in the midst of a worldwide confrontation with the structures of power. In light of the current global uprising against the status-quo, this conference aims to further explore discourses of the defense of power, the attempts of its subversion, and the diverse repercussions of such efforts within the history of Luso-Hispanic literatures, languages, arts, and cultures.

Presenters are invited to address the conference theme from a variety of backgrounds and disciplines. We seek papers relevant to the studies of Hispanic and Lusophone literatures, linguistics, and other related cultural expressions.

Topics of exploration may include, but are not limited to the following areas:

Transgression Loyalties Contact Oppression

Boundaries Ideologies Revolution Freedom

Identities Domination Vulnerability Structures

Presentations may be given in Portuguese, Spanish, or English. Please submit 250 word abstracts via EasyAbstracts, omitting any identifying information from the abstract document itself. Presentations will be limited to twenty minutes with ten minutes for questions and discussion.
