NARRATIVE(S) IN CONFLICTWORKSHOP / 2-3 MAY 2013 /TRINITY LONG ROOM HUBARTS AND HUMANITIES RESEARCH INSTITUTE

This international and interdisciplinary workshop explores the role onarrative constructions

and processes in cultural conicts. Organized by the Trinity Long Room Hub Arts & HumanitiesResearch Institute, the School o Languages, Literatures and Cultural Studies at Trinity College

Dublin, and the Faculty or Philology and Cultural Studies at the University o Vienna, it brings

together prominent experts rom a range o backgrounds, disciplines and countries.

Its leading hypothesis is that narratives do not just mirror conicts, but, in their perormative

dimension, equally mould and sequence events through their respective narrative ormats.

This workshop thus situates itsel between literary studies and cultural analysis:

Itanalysesthefunctionofnarrativesforconictualprocesses in culture and society,

looking in particular at the relationship between culture and power;

Itthematisestensionswithinmodernitysince1900by exploring examples rom diferent epochs,

historical constellations, genres and text types;

Itinvestigateshownarrativesandcounter-narratives

interpret and shape reinterpretations o identities

in and through cultural conicts. The workshop

thus contributes to Trinity College

Dublins research theme on Identities in

Transormation which is championed

by the Trinity Long Room Hub.
