Shaping Humanities: Innovation, Tradition, and Value Creation
The Department of Applied Linguistics of the Faculty of Technical and Human Sciences Târgu Mureș of the Sapientia Hungarian University of Transylvania and the DAMERG Research Center is organizing the online international academic conference Trans-linguistica VI: Shaping Humanities: Innovation, Tradition, and Value Creation, from May 19 to 20, 2022.
Together with experts interested in the history, research and teaching of language, literature and culture, we would like to discuss the place and role of the humanities in the world: the direction in which the humanities are changing, the practical uses of the humanities beyond theoretical possibilities, and how they can be put into a cross-disciplinary framework. If we want to explore the social changes that are taking place around us, we need to look at the changes, movements and modifications of language, culture and literature, at the latent and slow or even rapid shifts, innovations or even eclipses.
People live in cultural communities that are formed and sustained along certain practices. We are not only part of a material world: how a community maintains and regenerates itself is also important. In our view, the benefits of the humanities (though difficult to quantify) are the development of knowledge coupled with ethical stance, the generation and maintenance of intellectual strength, the training of individuals capable of critical thinking, the formation of creative people who understand interconnections. The human capital of knowledge, freedom of thought and reflection, the cultivation and teaching of culture in the classical sense, the preservation of interfaces, the exploration and interpretation of the cultural values of the past and present, often with a view to the future, are decisive factors in this.
Topics:
We expect submissions in Hungarian, Romanian, English and German.
Participants can propose a presentation (duration: 20 minutes), a case study or a roundtable.
Participation at the conference is free of charge.
Applications are invited until March 31, 2022, together with a 150-300-word abstract of the presentations/roundtables in English.
Notification of acceptance will be sent by April 15. A peer-reviewed volume of the conference papers will be published. A peer-reviewed volume of the conference papers will be published by the Scientia Publishing House (accredited by CNCS).
Geisteswissenschaften gestalten: zwischen Innovation, Tradition und Wertebildung
Das Departement für Angewandte Linguistik an der Fakultät für Technische und Geisteswissenschaften der Siebenbürgisch-Ungarischen Sapientia Universität und das Forschungszentrum DAMERG organisieren zwischen dem 19. und dem 20. Mai 2022 die internationale wissenschaftliche Tagung Trans-linguistica VI. Geisteswissenschaften gestalten: zwischen Innovation, Tradition und Wertebildung.
Gemeinsam mit Experten der Geschichte, der Erforschung und der Lehre von Sprache, Literatur und Kultur möchten wir über die Stellung und die Rolle der Geisteswissenschaften in der heutigen Welt debattieren: in welcher Richtung entwickelt sich die Philologie, welchen praktischen Nutzen bietet dieser Wissenschaftszweig jenseits der theoretischen Perspektive, und wie kann sie in einem interdisziplinären Rahmen eingeordnet werden? Um die gesellschaftlichen Veränderungen in unserem Umfeld aufzeigen zu können, müssen wir die Veränderungen, Umwandlungen, Bewegungen, die latent oder schlagartig eintretenden Transformationen, Neuerungen oder gar den Verfall der Sprache, der Kultur, der Literatur untersuchen.
Die Menschen leben in einer Kulturgemeinschaft, die auf der Basis bestimmter Verhaltensmuster entsteht und bestehen bleibt. Wir sind nicht nur Elemente der materiellen Welt, die Erhaltung und die Erneuerung einer Gemeinschaft spielt ebenfalls eine entscheidende Rolle.
Wir sind der Ansicht, dass der Nutzen der Geisteswissenschaften (auch, wenn dieser schwer zu beziffern ist) in der Herausbildung eines mit ethischer Haltung einhergehenden Wissensstandes, in der Herausbildung und Aufrechterhaltung der intellektuellen Stärke, in der Ausbildung von kritisch, kreativ und systemisch denkenden, und die Zusammenhänge überschauenden Menschen liegt.
Entscheidend hierfür sind das Wissenskapital, das freie Denken und die freie Reflexion, die Pflege und Vermittlung von Kultur im klassischen Sinne und auf höchstmöglichen Standards, der Erhalt von Schnittstellen, die Erforschung und die Interpretation der wertvollen Kultursubstanz der Vergangenheit und der Gegenwart, mit zukunftsweisenden Mitteln und Methoden.
Themenfelder:
Konferenzsprachen: Ungarisch, Rumänisch, Englisch, Deutsch
Interessenten können Vorschläge für einen Vortrag (Dauer: 20 Minuten), einer Fallstudie oder für ein Rundtischgespräch einreichen.
Die Teilnahme an der Tagung ist kostenlos.
Anmeldung für einen Vortrag/Vorschlag für ein Rundtischgespräch: englischsprachige Abstracts von ungefähr 150-300 Wörtern können bis zum 31. März 2022.
Die Auswertung der eingereichten Abstracts und die Bestätigung der Teilnahme erfolgen bis zum 15 April. Die Tagungsbeiträge werden in einem rezensierten Band publiziert werden.
