CFP: VII Congresso Internacional do Romanceiro

The VII Congresso Internacional do Romanceiro [VII International Congress of the Romanceiro] takes place in Portugal on May 10th, 11th and 12th, 2023.

The meeting is held in Lisbon, the departure dock of the caravels heading for the transoceanic expansion of ballads in Portuguese, the only Portuguese city where editions of romances were printed in the 16th and 17th centuries, and where the academy gave full entry to these epic-lyric poems about 150 years ago in the Curso Superior de Letras.

In this suggestive horizon, the Institute for the Study of Literature and Tradition and the Ramón Menéndez Pidal Foundation are organizing, within the scope of their research lines dedicated to the Romanceiro, the next meeting that will honor Giuseppe Di Stefano for his fundamental work in this field. Both institutions invite specialists of the Iberian Romanceiro and scholars interested on the intersections between the romances and other literary, musical and visual arts genres to participate in this space of confluence and debate of philological, intertextual, inter-artistic and computational perspectives applied to literature.

Those interested in participating must submit their proposals by September 15th, 2022. All information can be found on the official website of the meeting.
