Often seen as a relentlessly abstract, calculated and regulatory measure, time can also be plural, dense, concrete, and embodied: what is the materiality of time, and the temporality of matter? Although the conference is organised from the viewpoint of French studies, we wish the CFP to reach those working in art history, film studies, performance, english, philosophy, critical theory, history etc, Fri, 14 Dec 2012 11:48:00 GMT http://www.rhul.ac.uk/dramaandtheatre/studentsandalumni/informationforpostgraduateresearchstudents/callforpapers/calls/cfp-cambridgefrenchpostgraduateconference,mattersoftime.aspx CFP Cambridge French Postgraduate conference Matters of Time http://www.rhul.ac.uk/dramaandtheatre/studentsandalumni/informationforpostgraduateresearchstudents/callforpapers/calls/callforpresentations,workshops,paperstheatrebetweentraditioncontemporaneity.aspx Theatre Between Tradition & Contemporaneity Theatre Between Tradition & Contemporaneitytheatre - dance - music - circus - visual and multimedia art December 17 - 21, 2013 - AustriaThe international conference is open to performers, performing arts educators, teachers, artists, playwrights, theatre critics, journalists, theatre researchers, arts managers, arts administrators, arts management educators and consultants, arts entrepreneurs, fundraisers, producers, arts agents and talent managers and from all over the world interested in the research of traditional methods as applied to contemporary performing arts work.
