O projeto Women of the Brown Atlantic convida pesquisadores em início de carreira para a sessão de 2020 da “Memory Residency”, uma bolsa de estudos de um mês na Universidade de Exeter.
Espera-se que os candidatos participem de trabalhos académicos relacionados ao tema do projeto financiado pelo AHRC: “Women of the Brown Atlantic Real and Imaginary Passages in Portuguese, 1711-2011".
Este projeto explora as comunidades de mulheres negras que participaram na história da mobilidade e da memória no Atlântico, nos domínios da literatura, da teoria e do cinema transnacional. Focando em uma relação de três séculos entre o Brasil, a África e Portugal como o seu objeto de investigação, o projeto visa construir novas perspetivas sobre a memória e o movimento feminino negro que estejam atentas à diferença de género e às identidades queer, bem como às afiliações regionais, nacionais e transnacionais.
A data limite para apresentação de candidaturas é dia 25 de novembro de 2019.
