Higher Education and Research Society is a Mumbai based international learned society

concerned with the advancement and understanding of higher education, especially

through the insights, perspectives and knowledge offered by the systematic research and

scholarship. The Society aims to be the leading international organisation in the field to

support and disseminate research and education. We commit sustainable development

academics in a „top-down pattern‟, the prime goal of the society is to encourage and

Aesthetics Afterlives: Memory, Transfiguration and the Arts

 

Call for Papers

September 9, 2016 to September 10, 2016

New Jersey, United States

Art, Art History & Visual Studies, Atlantic History / Studies, Colonial and Post-Colonial History / Studies, Humanities, Literature

Keynote Speaker: Jonathan Holloway, Dean of Yale College and Professor of History and African American Studies

Location: Princeton University, New Jersey

The last four decades have witnessed a phenomenal upsurge of interest in memory and memory studies. Spurred on by the unprecedented destruction of World War II, memory studies as many know it today has evolved in a largely Euro-centric context. But the last two decades have seen groundbreaking work in overcoming regional as well as disciplinary boundaries. Many scholars now reject the so-called "competition" model of trauma, which implicitly pits one community's suffering against another, finding instead that the study of commemoration can affirm and encompass the full diversity of human experience and loss. Scholars have also taken new interdisciplinary strides, blending critical study of the arts with the study of memory as well as personal narrative, as our keynote speaker, Jonathan Holloway, does in Jim Crow Wisdom.

Recent developments in the study of memory, from Michael Rothberg’s Multidirectional Memory to Benjamin Stora’s La gangrène et  l’oubli, highlight the struggle between the desire to remember and the need to forget, which has taken center stage in discussions about memory and its uses. Pierre Nora's concepts of lieux and milieux de mémoire have inspired both praise and controversy regarding the relationship between memory and history; memory and space; and memory and artifacts in societies’ efforts to institute archives or commemorate important events. Between the preservation of sites of commemoration, such as Ground Zero and Parque de la Memoria, and the state-imposed silence on commemorative spaces under repressive governments, memory has become a much more self-conscious societal focus.

All these developments have strong aesthetic dimensions. The third annual conference of the Department of Comparative Literature at Princeton will undertake a two-day reflection on these issues of memory in artistic works and practice, broadly conceived. We see opportunities for new exploration of the way memory is preserved, transmitted, changed, resignified, and reinvented in works of art, and especially in "translation" from one work or medium to another.

We invite conference participants and community members to join us in considering such questions as: How is the memory of a war or violent event reconceptualized in aesthetic representations? How does kitchification transform the memory of an original event? How does mnemonic intertextuality change memories? How do artists transmit one another's work, and extend one another's reach (or their own) in posterity? In what ways does a painting or photograph establish the afterlife of its subject, or does a composer extend the life of a text or image "translated" into music? Can the various art forms do justice to one another? Can they do without each other? How do different translators re-write or change texts and memories? How does the artistic medium transform, change or adapt the memory of an event, experience, person or another work of art? What is the role of the scholar in the commemoration of the dead, and the living? How do issues of memory figure in the Public Humanities movement? These questions concern us not only as scholars, but also as citizens and human beings, and they can inform our approach to the scholar's ideal role in society.

Potential papers might explore these subjects:

• Literature's refiguration of the memory of specific events
• Translation and resignification of memories
• Ekphrastic "translation," comparative media, and intermedial transmission (e.g., poetry set to music)
• Musical compositions and their particular mode of transmission
• Resignifying mnemonic sites
• Memory and palimpsest
• Food as memory
• Memory and trace(s)

Abstracts no longer than 500 words are due to Brahim El Guabli and Rachel Bergmann at  comconf@princeton.edu by June 10, 2016. Please include your full name, the title of your paper and your institutional affiliation in your abstract.

Dreaming Asleep, Dreaming Awake

International Conference

7-­8 October 2016 – Warsaw, Poland

organised by Interdisciplinary Research Foundation

        Keynote Speaker: Dr. Massimo Schinco, International Association for the Study of Dreams

     The notion of dreams and beliefs about them differ considerably across cultures. In certain societies, dreams are generally considered to be unreal figments irrelevant to the important concerns of daily life. In other cultures people treat dreams as important sources of information about the future, the spiritual world or oneself. In some, dreams are considered to be a space for action like waking life, or a means for communication with other people or with the supernatural.

     According to Waud H. Kracke, how dreams are dealt within different cultures may be examined from four perspectives: beliefs people hold about the nature of dreaming; conventional systems by which people interpret particular dreams; the social context in which dreams are shared (or not shared) and discussed; and the ways in which dreams are used in practice, especially in curing. In addition, dreams can be interpreted psychodynamically, as expressing the dreamer’s inner wishes, fears and conflicts. Furthermore, scholars and clinicians have refined different forms of dreamworking, especially in groups, in order to appreciate the benefits that the attention to dreams may bring about in the life of individuals and communities.

     Dreaming Asleep, Dreaming Awake International Conference aims to spark new conversations about dreams and and their role(s) in cultural, social and personal contexts.

         Papers are invited on topics related, but not limited, to:

• theories of dreaming
• cultural differences in dreams
• social embeddedness of dreams
• dream symbolism
• interpretation of dreams
• therapeutic use of dreams
• dreams and creativity

   The conference will bring together scholars from different fields including philosophy, theology, psychology, psychiatry, neuroscience, sociology, anthropology, history, art, literature, linguistics, etc.

          The language of the conference is English.

        Paper proposals up to 250 words and a brief biographical note should be sent by 15 June 2016 to:        dreams@irf-network.org. Download paper proposal form.

          Papers presented at the conference will be published in a collected volume.

          Registration Fee:

• Full registration fee: 150 €
• Student registration fee: 115 €
