Call for Papers\/Sessions – International Medieval Congress 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The IMC provides an interdisciplinary forum for the discussion of all aspects of Medieval Studies. Paper and session proposals on any topic related to the Middle Ages are welcome, while every year the IMC also chooses a special thematic focus. In 2018 – the year of the 25th IMC – this is \u2018Memory\u2019.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There are many kinds of memory – personal and social, natural and artificial, political and cultural. Along the lines of this general taxonomy, memory operates in many diverse modes: as a mechanism, process, instrument, and cognitive framework relating to, and concerning recreations of, the past – the social past, the institutional past as well as the past of an individual. Central in the process of storing, retrieving, and (re)constructing the past, memory is by no means a stable entity; it is always undergoing transformation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In recent decades, memory has become a very fashionable research topic. In Medieval Studies, the concept of memory has been studied as permeating history, literature, language, religion, science, philosophy, and other fields. In addition to treating the processes of storing and retrieving information, the study of memory now naturally also encompasses personal and communal identity and self-fashioning, conceptualization of the world, perception of time and space, intellectual cognition and emotional reactions, established patterns and creativity, continuity and discontinuity, memorization and forgetting – to name but a few conceptual domains under scrutiny. This, however, also means that the study of memory has gradually become very complex and even somewhat elusive. In this sense, this special thematic strand offers a unique opportunity for a fresh and vigorous treatment of the field of memory in its astonishing breadth and variety.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The IMC welcomes proposals in all areas of memory. Themes to be addressed may include, but are not limited to:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2022Personal memory, self-fashioning, and identity
\n\u2022Social, political, and religious memory
\n\u2022The art of memory, mnemonics
\n\u2022Memory: orality and literacy
\n\u2022Knowledge and education – and its dissemination
\n\u2022Metaphors for memory
\n\u2022The media, mechanisms, and methods of memory – visual, verbal, and material memory
\n\u2022Memory and beauty: aesthetic relevance and impact of memorization and remembering
\n\u2022Objects of memory
\n\u2022Lieux de memoire – communities and identity
\n\u2022Construction and reconstruction of the past
\n\u2022Memory: order and disorder
\n\u2022Memory: sense and sensibility
\n\u2022Commemoration and re-enactment
\n\u2022Memory and immortality
\n\u2022The arcane and daily life
\n\u2022Memory and virtue
\n\u2022Performance\/drama\/music – memory and playfulness
\n\u2022Memory: habit and improvisation
\n\u2022Forgetting and oblivion: natural processes vs. damnatio memoriae
\n\u2022Forbidden memory
\n\u2022Manipulative memory
\n\u2022Categorization in language (analogy vs. anomaly, etc.)
\n\u2022Etymologizing (including folk etymology)
\n\u2022Formulas and catalogues
\n\u2022Remembering the Middle Ages<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Special Thematic Strand ‘Memory’ will be co-ordinated by will Lucie Dole\u017ealov\u00e1 (Institute of Greek & Latin Studies, Univerzita Karlova, Praha) and Jan Cerm\u00e1k (Department of English, Univerzita Karlova, Praha).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
