Meeting Description:

The “A. Philippide” Institute of Romanian Philology – the Iaşi Branch of the
Romanian Academy – and the “A. Philippide” Cultural Association have the
pleasure to invite you to participate in the International Annual Symposium of
the “A. Philippide” Institute of Romanian Philology, the 18-th Edition, with
the title Romania in the Euro-Atlantic Area: Cultural and Linguistic
Inter-connections [România în spaţiul euroatlantic: interferenţe culturale şi
lingvistice], Iaşi, Romania, 18–20 September 2019.

The organizers of the symposium invite the participants to present scientific
papers in a dialogue that can provide answers to the questions raised by the
topic of the symposium, namely the process of permanent change of the Romanian
culture, the adaptation of modern forms to the traditional structures, the
integration or the rejection of the latest influences by the Romanian norms
and customs:

– American and European cultural influences: to what extent and how they were
assimilated in Romania after 1989;
- the phenomenon of multilingualism;
- cultural effects of globalization;
- the preservation of the national identity in the context of Romania’s
accession to the EU and of globalization;
- the emigration of the Romanians and the socio-cultural and economic
consequences of the demographic mobility (Europe, USA, Canada etc);
- the situation of the Romanian language in the Romanian communities abroad
(Europe, USA, Canada etc);
- the situation of the Romanian language in the Romanian communities around
Romania’s borders;
- the contemporary Romanian language: standards and use;
- the role of diaspora in preserving the Romanian spiritual values;
- the perception of the contact with other European cultural areas or across
the Ocean in the Romanian literature;
- the role played by the information technology and communications in the
development of culture;
- the Internet: global information and communication;
- on-line publications vs. print publications;
- the Romanian mass-media from Romania and abroad: the promotion of the
national values vs. imitation of foreign models;
- strategies of promoting the historical, cultural and artistic heritage in
Romania;
- preservation of ancient customs vs. imported customs;
- safeguarding the immaterial cultural heritage and its role in preserving the
national identity.

The symposium will be organized at the Iaşi Branch of the Romanian Academy and
it will include several tracks: the Romanian language, literary history and
criticism, ethnology, Romanian culture and identity. As in the previous
editions, a special welcome is given to those participants who present the
results of various ongoing or recently completed grants and projects (partial
results).

The papers will be delivered in Romanian. 

On this occasion, Prof. dr. MARTIN MAIDEN (Statutory Professor of the Romance
Languages, Director Research Centre for Romance Linguistics/ Faculty of
Linguistics, Philology, and Phonetics/ Faculty of Medieval and Modern
Languages, University of Oxford, Great Britain), Fellow of the British
Academy, will deliver the lecture Romanian in Contact with the Languages of
Western Europe and the “neuter” Gender in Romanian (the lecture will be in
Romanian).

sections:
- Prof. Dumitru IRIMIA, PhD (1939 – 2009) (“Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of
Iaşi, Romania). In memoriam 
- Senior Researcher Dragoş MOLDOVANU, PhD (1941 – 2019) (“A. Philippide”
Institute of Romanian Philology, Iaşi, Romania). In memoriam
