Meeting Description:

Georgetown’s Graduate Portuguese and Hispanic Symposium (GRAPHSY) is
the 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 from Georgetown and consortium schools and
enjoy the talks of invited keynote speakers and panelists.

Call for Papers:

The Department of Spanish and Portuguese at Georgetown University
invites you to participate in its Graduate Portuguese and Hispanic
Symposium 2025 (GRAPHSY). This year’s conference welcomes proposals
within the theme of Emociones, sentimientos y afectos/ Emoções,
sentimentos e afetos/ Emotions, feelings and affects encouraging the
submission of a broad range of research in the fields of Linguistics,
Iberian and Latin American Literatures, and Cultures.

Emotions play a crucial role in how we understand the world and define
our place within it. Although the study of emotions remains a
challenging area in modern disciplines, this conference aims to lay a
solid foundation for future research by focusing on the linguistic,
literary, and cultural manifestations of emotional experiences.
GRAPHSY 2025 invites us to reflect on questions related to both
positive and negative emotions and language learning, the role of
affect in cultural and literary analysis and criticism, the
contributions of these new interpretive theories to the emerging
post-critical moment in literary studies, the impact of feelings on
the development of bi/multilingual identities as well as in various
types of social interactions, among other issues.

This year, we are seeking papers that offer innovative readings of
texts—from medieval to postmodern, including fiction, theater, poetry,
and memoirs—through the lens of studies on affect, feelings, and
emotions. We also welcome projects that investigate language in its
relationship with emotions, as well as research examining the
interconnection between language and human cognition.

We encourage submissions for GRAPHSY 2025, which will be held in a
hybrid format on February 14, 2025. (Note: This will be a hybrid
event: Some panels will be hybrid and applicants will be allowed to
present online. However, given that the hybrid slots are limited, the
majority of presentations will be in person.) Abstracts should be
related to the theme: Emotions, Feelings, and Affects; however, we are
excited to receive innovative proposals that connect literature and
linguistics with diverse fields, such as:
● Sound studies.
● Sociolinguistics, linguistic policies and ideologies.
● Impact on language learning and acquisition.
● Semantics and pragmatics.
● Critical theories and pedagogies.
● New technologies and Artificial Intelligence.
● Theater, music, and performance studies.
● Social sciences: economics, anthropology, history, political
science, international
relations, law, journalism.
● Visual arts: architecture, painting, drawing, photography,
sculpture.

All graduate students can present either essays or posters.
Undergraduate students will be considered for an exclusive panel or
poster presentations. You can submit your abstract at:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc-QD1ybPP7jNCrfdeowMu9p2LSPJArpTDfrmy6Ab_BY4dxiQ/viewform

The deadline for the submission of proposals is January 6, 2025. There
is no cost for presenters or registered attendees.
