Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Lisboa - 23-27 Jun. 2015 Royal Studies Network - CH-ULisboa Coord. Científica: Manuela Santos Silva The conference aims to examine dynastic changes’ processes in all historical moments and primarily to scrutinize ways of legitimating new dynasties or rulers in every part of the world. This theme, though obviously connected to political, institutional and legal studies, also allows participants to look at a wide range of topics including court studies, women’s and gender studies, especially by the examination of family structures and connections. Other possibilities include analyzing the transmitted memory of those processes in historiography, literature or other forms of art. |
