SUMMARY:FAH-DPORT-CIELA: Ultramarine blue. Re-imagining the empire through the analysis of (anti-)colonial projections in cinema
DESCRIPTION:The Research Centre for Luso-Asian Studies (CIELA) is pleased to invite all those interested to the Webinar “Ultramarine blue. Re-imagining the empire through the analysis of (anti-)colonial projections in cinema”\, by Prof. Maria do Carmo Piçarra\, being held on November 17 &  24\, and December 01 & 09\, 2021\, at 6:30pm\, via Zoom at “Casa Garden”\, Orient Foundation.  \nSeminar Syllabus \nThe ‘Estado Novo’ used cinema to impose\, internally and externally\, the image of a pluricontinental and multiracial country. Many ideas propagated were never questioned after the reestablishment of democracy and after the independence of Portuguese-speaking countries.         \nThis seminar\, structured into four two-hour sessions\, will reveal evidence of the (im)possibility of an alternative look to that of propaganda about the Portuguese ex-colonies in ‘Cinema Novo’s’ works that were censored and banned. It will address the uses of cinema during the liberation struggles and will highlight the cases of Goa\, Macau and Timor. It will also consider the emergence of national cinema projects in Mozambique\, Angola and Guinea-Bissau\, highlighting the contributions of some authors. It will give a brief overview of current cinematographies in African countries with Portuguese as the official language\, also particularizing the oriental cases. \nFor Registration\, please visit https://umac.au1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_b3379hlDjCzsxw2 \nZoom Link for Session 1 (17/11)\,  2 (24.11)  & 3 (01/12):: https://umac.zoom.us/j/93113547401 \nZoom Link for Session 4 (09/12: https://umac.zoom.us/j/93294398155 \nShort Bio \nMaria do Carmo Piçarra is a researcher at ICNOVA-FCSH and a Professor at the Universidade Autónoma de Lisboa.

SUMMARY:FAH-ELC EWCC: Spring 2022 EWCC Critical Thinking Workshops

When stereotypes are hold against particular groups of people according to their characteristic differences  (e.g. categorized by gender\, nationality\, ethnicity or even sexuality)\, this could be fundamentally detrimental to people’s intercultural competence and their ability to communicate globally and boundlessly\, which are specifically important for any language learners. Likewise\, as an effective English user\, students should be aware of any inappropriate presumptions in the language that they use and other people use while being able to question\, analyze\, criticize and correct these prejudices. In other words\, to identify stereotypes essentially involves critical thinking skills as students will need to challenge a widely-believed presumption which may possibly also be believed by themselves. This workshop is to develop an intercultural awareness in students and also foster their critical thinking skills through spotting stereotypes in English media. \nDate: 10 March 2022 \nTime: 18:00 – 19:30 \nVenue: E6-2113 \nFacilitator: Elizabeth Leong \nLanguage: English \nQuota: 15 UM students \nReferences: \nCherrington\, R.

SUMMARY:FAH/DPHIL Lecture Series – “Temporal experience\, metaphysics\, and metametaphysics\, or: on philosophising about temporal experience” by Prof. Natalja Deng\, Yonsei University\, South Korea
DESCRIPTION:Zoom: https://umac.zoom.us/j/99695878157 \nAbstract \nIn this talk\, I would like to explore some meta-theoretical questions regarding current debates about temporal experience\, by which I mean questions about how best to conceive of what is at stake in those debates. I begin by introducing the question of how we perceive temporal phenomena at all\, and briefly consider a suggested reformulation of that question. I then turn to the question of whether time really passes\, and whether we experience time as really passing. I examine both a metaphysics-first approach to this issue\, and then the reformulation implicit in Craig Callender’s book ‘What makes time special?’ (OUP 2017). I conclude that as a reformulation\, the latter does not succeed. I end with some remarks on where philosophy of temporal experience might go from here.

SUMMARY:FAH-DPORT:  Online Seminar "How to learn for practicing Portuguese"
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Portuguese of FAH is pleased to invite all those interested to the online Seminar “How to learn for practicing Portuguese” by Prof. Xu Yixing\, being held on March 10\, 2022\, at 4:00pm\, via Zoom: https://umac.zoom.us/j/97126278107?pwd=ZEI0MGdqSkxPQ2J5YzFuQ0RjSUVudz09 \nABSTRACT \nIt´s not hard to start to learn a foreign language\, but it´s really hard to know how we can practice the language so that it can be well used in our daily work or life. So we´d like to suggest that the students might be conscientious of what should learn at the very beginning of the course and how can practice the knowledge leant in class. Taking the translation for example\, we should know very well not only Portuguese but also our mother tongue before we can start to do so\, but it is also important for us to know more about the society\, the culture\, the literature and so on\, of the countries. \nGUEST BIOGRAPHY \nProf. Xu Yixing\, Catarina\, is the Director of the Portuguese Department and Full Professor at the Shanghai University of International Studies\, Foreign Corresponding Academician of the Lisbon Academy of Sciences\, holder of the Grau Comendador da Ordem do Mérito decorated by the former President of the Portuguese Republic\, Prof. Cavaco Silva\, author of didactic materials for Chinese PLE learners such as Curso de Português para Chineses\, and translator of Portuguese authors such as Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen and António Lobo Antunes.

SUMMARY:FAH-DPORT:  Online Seminar "Macao as the origin of Chinese Chilli Pepper's Culture"
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Portuguese of FAH is pleased to invite all those interested to the online Seminar “Macao as the origin of Chinese Chilli Pepper’s Culture” by Prof. Jin Guoping\, being held on March 15\, 2022\, at 7:30pm\, via Zoom: https://umac.zoom.us/j/9970692667?pwd=ZDNaak1RZG4wT09GQ0NmYjFCVTkxUT09 \nABSTRACT \nChina is now the largest producer and consumer of Chili peppers in the world. The Chinese have known of the existence of Chili peppers for only 429 years. The first reference to Chili peppers in Chinese classic texts is in 1591. Before that\, of course\, Chili peppers had already been introduced to China. Chili peppers went from ornamental to edible. It has become a long-lasting “spicy whirlwind” on the Chinese table. \nChili peppers are native to Central and South America. It was Columbus who brought Chili peppers back to Europe\, starting the “Columbian Exchange”. It was then spread by the Portuguese to Africa and Asia. Even in Europe\, it was the Portuguese who are credited with its spread. The route of the Chili peppers to Asia was from Pernambuco in Brazil to Cochim and Goa in India. It may then have been introduced to Tibet from India by land. From the sea it spread to Malacca\, Thailand and Burma. Then possibly from Burma to Yunnan via the ancient Burma-Yunnan route\, and then to Guizhou. Another possible route was to Zhejiang province by the Portuguese who began to operate in Shuangyu (Liampó) in 1524. It then followed the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal into the Yangtze River and spread westwards. Another route was the spread to northern China via the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. It was also spread from Shuangyu to Japan\, where it was then imported into Korea. \nHistorical sources show that es in south-west China were imported from Macau. This is reflected in the names “Hai Jiao(maritime Chili)” and “Guang Jiao(Canton’s Chili)”. The name “maritime Chili” refers to the nature of the species imported from abroad\, while the name “Canton’s Chili” clearly indicates that it was imported from Canton. Given that Macao was the only port of commerce in China prior to the Opium Wars\, it must have been through Macao\, in Canton\, that the “Canton’s Chili” was introduced to south-western China. Chili peppers brought a new taste sensation to the Chinese diet. It led to a “Chili Pepper’s Revolution” and the creation of a “Chili Pepper’s Culture” in China. \nIn this talk\, we will also introduce in detail the various names for Chili peppers and their meanings in Spanish and Portuguese. The etymology of the English name\, Chili pepper\, will be explained. We would like to highlight once again the great influence that Macao has had on Chinese history and Chinese culture. This influence is reflected in the Chili peppers. More important to the Chinese than the fleeting need for silver\, Chili peppers has influenced the taste of Chinese food and become one of the characteristics of Chinese culture\, the origins of which can be traced back to the arrival of the Portuguese in the East and their establishment in Macao. \nGUEST BIOGRAPHY \nProf. Jin Guoping is a Visiting Professor of the Institute of Social and Cultural Studies at Macau University of Science and Technology. He is also a Research Fellow at the Center for Macaology at Jinan University.\nHe graduated from the Spanish Department of Beijing Foreign Studies University\, majoring in Spanish and Portuguese. He also holds a higher degree in Portuguese Culture and Language at the Department of Literature\, University of Lisbon\, Portugal and is an Academician of the Portuguese Academy of History\, having received the Order of Infante D. Henrique by the Portuguese Republic.

This year his centennial birth anniversary is being celebrated worldwide by many academic and non-academic institutions. The Department of Portuguese at FAH/UM\, through its Research Centre\, CIELA\, will also commemorate this occasion with two open online tributes. \n1st  Tribute  \nOpen Online Seminar \nIntroduction to Saramago’s Work \n This 3 session seminar will provide and introduction to Saramago’s main lines of thought and creativity developed throughout his vast literary production\, through the presentation\, comments and analysis of two of his works: O Ano da Morte de Ricardo Reis (‘The Year of the Death of Ricardo Reis’) and Viagem a Portugal (‘Voyage to Portugal’).

SUMMARY:FAH/DPHIL Lecture Series – “Time without Events of time” by Prof. Gregory Landini\, University of Iowa\, USA
DESCRIPTION:Zoom: https://umac.zoom.us/j/94985864920 \nAbstract \nTime\, it might be said\,  is concerned with the nature of the past\, the present and the future\, with variants of  presentism and eternalism and (non-static) growing block the leading metaphysical theories.  But this is hardly clarifying.  Presentism is often characterized as the thesis that only the present exists\, while the others embrace more. If the positions and the distinctiveness of presentism should turn on the dubious assumption of a property of ‘existing’ (present tense) or ‘being present’\, then the substantive nature of the debates may well deserve to be viewed as dubious.  Another questionable assumption\, I argue\, is that temporal relations and our understanding of tense requires a commitment to events (at least as concrete if not abstract particulars). The tenseless predication required for the characterization of events generates the static image of  events standing (tenselessly) in an external relation of temporal order—an order that seems able to be modeled by applying mathematical kinds of ordering.  The success of Einstein’s special relativity\, interpreted as if it requires a theory of space-time events\, has led many philosophers to accept the static image. These are fly bottles.  To plan an escape\, I introduce in contradistinction to a modest event language Le\,  a safe mode language Lt wherein tenselessness comes solely from the use of quantifiers (and accompanying connectives) and all primitive predicates get tense inflections.  It is argued that substantive differences in theories of time can be captured within Lt and that embracing events is not required for understanding tense inflections. It is hoped that\, without events and the static image they bring\, a new interpretation of special relativity as a non-static theory may be  developed.  This interpretation has the striking consequence that the implications of special relativity have been misconstrued.  A clock runs slow relative to an inertial frame in such a way that its hands always stay in lock-step with another running at a different rate relative to a frame.   It will be found\, however\, that this is of no consolation to presentism.
