In the context of the 200th anniversary of the Declaration of Chilean independence signed by Bernardo O´Higgins in 1818, the opportunity for an Irish Studies Symposium in Chile emerges. There has been a growing interest on Irish studies in several Latin American countries, including Chile, and a parallel growing interest of the Irish Government in Latin America. The focus of the event will be on discussing the historical and contemporary connections between Chile, Ireland and other South American countries.
This Symposium is a pre-conference event of the International Conference of Irish Studies in Latin America which will be hosted in Santiago in December.
The symposium aims to gather a small group of researchers to discuss the main theme from different perspectives which will be expanded in the International Conference:
- Construction of a nation through its narratives
- Historical links of the Americas and Ireland
- The Literature of revolutions and independence
- Travel narratives, diaries, letters, photographs and other means/ways of narrating
independence
- Political and cultural relations between Ireland and nineteenth-century Latin America
- Economy and regional integration
- Reception of Irish literature
- Folklore and ethno music
- Mass media in the contemporary world
- Representations in theatre and other arts
- Translation: cultural and literary translations
- Irish migration studies
- Gender studies
