Meeting Description:

Georgetown’s Graduate Portuguese and Hispanic Symposium (GRAPHSY) is
Georgetown's Spanish and Portuguese department’s student-organized graduate
conference. Open to both students of literature and linguistics, the
conference brings together graduate students from universities around the
country to present their research, participate in mentorship sessions with
established scholars and professors and enjoy the talks of invited keynote
speakers and panelists. This year’s conference welcomes proposals within the
theme of Ida y vuelta/Ida e volta: Academia and Community​​, encouraging the
submission of a broad range of research in the fields of Linguistics and
Iberian and Latin American Literatures and Cultures. GRAPHSY 2020 aims to
highlight the relationship between scholarship within the world of academia
and the communities that inspire, affect, and are affected by that research.
>From the concrete to the more intangible, the conference aims to open a
dialogue into what we owe and what academia can give back to our communities
through the diversity of research agendas that exist, be it personally,
socioculturally, historically, cognitively, epistemologically, or otherwise.
