The workshop Ruy Cinatti: etnógrafo e poeta – Classificação de narrativas orais entre perspetivas emic e etic [Ruy Cinatti: ethnographer and poet – Classification of oral narratives between emic and etic perspectives] will be held online on November 20th.

This workshop aims to analyse and debate different typologies of oral narratives, analysing their variation in time and space, considering both Western and endogenous academic perspectives, namely those of Southeast Asia and, in particular, East Timor. The session will feature Isabel Barros Dias, Nuno da Silva Gomes, Vicente Paulino and will be moderated by Luísa Coutinho.

The mission of the “Ruy Cinatti, ethnographer and poet” project is to study and publicise the work of Ruy Cinatti, articulating his ethnographic research in Portuguese Timor with the vectors of his literary creation. This workshop is being held as part of Science and Technology Week 2024, organised by Ciência Viva.
