This international colloquium intends to give voice to underestimated narratives and memories, adopting a multidisciplinary approach. The aim is to explore the dynamics of construction, transmission and loss of alternative narratives in diverse historical, cultural and linguistic contexts. The organising committee aims to foster academic debates anchored in a plural and multidimensional perspective. This colloquium will serve as a space for critical dialogue, shedding light on counter-narratives that allow marginalised memories to be given a new place and question the power relations that shape dominant discourses.


Thematic lines
1. Memory, Power and Hegemonic Discourses
2. Literature and counter-narratives: writing history from the margins.
3. Language, identity and domination
4. Colonialism, Postcolonialism and the Reconstruction of Memory
5. Memories of conflict and forced displacement
6. Art, media and the construction of imaginaries of memory.
7. Intersectional approaches to alternative memories.
