Call for papers

The 5th Colloquium of the Research Group Body and Image in
Discourse: Ceci n´est pas une pipe

e

The 4th Symposium on Transculturality, Language and
Education: Thinking (and doing) otherwise

October 23 – 25, 2019 – Uberlândia – MG – Brazil

Ceci n´est pas une pipe. The statement on René Magritte´s canvas has the potency to close, question, challenge and/or deny the relation between the image of the painted pipe and the material pipe, and a possibility of representation or similarity between the two. It also opens a territory for reflections on language: What can the word do with the image? In turn, what does the image make visible about the linguistic? In times of mass circulation of images and words by applications and social networks and the paradox between the greater possibility of connection and the less disposition for dialogue, the 5th edition of the Colloquium of the Research Group Body and Image in Discourse invites researchers whose theoretical and methodological foundations and research objects allow the emergence of answers to one or both of the following questions:
a) After the period in Ceci n’est pas une pipe, what emerges as a possible linguistic, imagistic, or epistemological formulation for you?
b) If the term pipe is removed from the statement Ceci n’est pas un (e) __., leaving there, in its place, a gap, what, for you, emerges to occupy this space?
These questions are intended to inspire researchers to discuss the functioning of language in contemporary discursive practices, power strategies and their relation to art, literature, philosophy, among other areas.

The Symposium Thinking (and doing) otherwise aims to promote a space for the exchange of studies, research, strategies and experiences of researchers who have been theorizing language functioning, processes of language teaching and learning, and processes of meaning making in diverse situations, and who have been constructing theoretical frameworks that are creative, hybrid, and transdisciplinary. Such frameworks suggest a kind of intellectuality that points to an academic and educational doing that differs from stablished oppressive patterns. Thinking (and doing) otherwise challenges and problematizes regimes of meanings, values and epistemologies that create docile and subaltern subjectivities. The event brings together members of the Working Group on Transculturality, Language and Education, affiliated to the National Association of Graduate Studies and Research in Letters and Linguistics (ANPOLL) and will give visibility to the way the group and scientists who identify with it have thought and practiced their theories and articulated concepts such as those of difference, identity, language, power and resistance. This symposium also explores contemporary conditions of thinking, doing research and engaging in educational contexts. The guiding question of the event is: What  characterizes and/or supports our ways of thinking and doing otherwise?

The papers submitted to the event must necessarily address the proposed themes.

Official languages of the event: Portuguese and English.

Submission deadline: Until July 31, 2019

Thematic lines

The proposals submitted to the event can be aligned with (but do not need to be restricted to) the following thematic
lines:

•             Body standardization processes

•             Discursive constructions and images: network circulation

•             Language teaching and learning

•            Translating and cross-cultural practices

•             Language education

•             Language policies

•            Emerging and hybrid epistemologies

•            Strategies of power and resistance

•           Discursive practices and information and communication technologies

Submission of proposals

There will be two types of presentation: oral communications and posters.

Oral communications will be organized in topic-oriented discussion sessions. Each researcher will have 15 minutes to present their paper. Discussions will be held at the end of the session. This category of participation is reserved for Doctors, M.A.´s and graduate students. Researchers at the undergraduate level may submit papers in this category as coauthors of their advisors and only if their advisors are also present in the presentation. Each discussion session will be mediated by a guest researcher, who will be responsible for opening, leading and closing each session. This organization aims to establish a logic that allows a cohesion in the discussions and, above all, a deepening of concepts and theories.

Posters will have a specific presentation session lasting one hour. In this category, proposals may be submitted by Doctors, M.A.´s, graduate and undergraduate researchers.

Guidelines for preparing and submitting the abstract

Proposals for both types of presentation should be submitted in abstract format containing between 250 and 300 words. Abstracts should indicate, at the top of the page, the desired subject line, if any, be written in Times New Roman font, size 11 and should have a bold, centered title with only the first letter capitalized and one line below the title, on the right: name(s) of author(s) (maximum 3 per work), academic degree of each author, together with the acronym of institutional affiliation between parentheses, just after the name(s), on the same line. The text must be followed by three keywords that are not in the title, each in capital letters and all separated by a semicolon. The abstracts should explain: theme, question and corpus of research, orientations and / or theoretical problematizations and preliminary or final conclusions of the study. Each participant may submit at most one paper as the main author and one as coauthor.

The proposals must be sent by 07/31/2019 to the email: coloquioscid@gmail.com. The results and letters of acceptance will be sent as soon as the proposals are approved by the Scientific Committee.
