Modality: In-person and online
The Latin American Network of Mythocriticism Pachamama announces the celebration of the II International Colloquium focused on myth, imaginaries, and technology.
This second edition of the colloquium will reflect on the manifestations of myth in Latin American culture and its interfaces with the various technologies that mediate our material or spiritual relationships. It will delve into the imaginaries that motivate our relationships with these technologies and expand the notions of myth and imaginary in light of the diverse perspectives prevalent in Latin America in dialogue with indigenous and Afro-American cultures. Likewise, we propose to question the limits of episteme to confront the diversity of thoughts, narrative forms, and artistic resources in the manifestation of myths and imaginaries that circulate in culture and reflect the complexity and reliability of our relationships with nature.
A call is made to researchers, professors, students, artists, and other interested parties to present papers that address the relationships between myth and the knowledge of the imaginary, technology, literature, art, and all the practices and thoughts that permeate our Latin American reality. Proposals on the following themes will be welcomed:
- Myth and technology
- Artistic and literary expressions of myth in Latin America
- Epistemological and theoretical questions surrounding myth
- Ancient and new forms of myth
- The living myth in Latin America
- Myth and nature
- Myth and immersion
