Księgozbiory, biblioteki, wydawnictwa i twórcy podczas konfliktów zbrojnych i politycznych. Stan badań i perspektywy badawcze

Zachęcamy do zgłaszania referatów oraz udziału w I międzynarodowej interdyscyplinarnej konferencji z cyklu „Wojna i książka” pt. "Księgozbiory, biblioteki, wydawnictwa i twórcy podczas konfliktów zbrojnych i politycznych". Stan badań i perspektywy badawcze. Poznań, 13-15 listopada 2019 r.

Zniszczona Biblioteka Raczyńskich w Poznaniu

Nadchodząca 80. rocznica wybuchu II wojny światowej będzie odpowiednią okazją do organizacji pierwszej konferencji z planowanego cyklu, której tematyka dotyczyć będzie bibliotek, księgozbiorów, wydawnictw  i twórców oraz kultury w czasach konfliktów zbrojnych i politycznych. 

Na konferencji zostaną zaprezentowane rozmaite kategorie strat kulturalnych związanych z książką podczas konfliktów zbrojnych i politycznych. Organizatorom zależy na podjęciu tematyki nie tylko z okresu II wojny światowej, lecz także konfliktów wcześniejszych (np. potopu szwedzkiego) i czasów bardziej współczesnych (zimna wojna, wojna w Iraku). Podczas konferencji poruszona zostanie również problematyka  ochrony zbiorów oraz sytuacji prawnej bibliotek i dóbr kultury w czasie wojny, a także rozmaite aspekty likwidacji strat kulturalnych.

Język konferencji: polski i angielski

Partner: Stowarzyszenie Bibliotekarzy Polskich, Narodowy Instytut Muzealnictwa i Ochrony Zbiorów

The conference will moreover discuss the protection of collections and the legal situation of libraries and cultural assets during the war, as well as the various aspects of offsetting losses in culture.

THE 1ST BIAŁYSTOK CONFERENCE ON THEORETICAL AND APPLIED LINGUISTICS

In recent years linguistic conferences organized by the Białystok circle of neophilologists have established a strong tradition in terms of providing a forum for the exchange of views on the nature of language. It all started almost fifteen years ago, in 2002. The main aim of the conferences was to provide a meeting ground for a wide range of scholars: linguists, literary scholars, foreign language teaching methodologists, to mention but a few groups of researchers participating in the events. The conferences explored the relationship between language, culture, and social interaction. They were often organized in co-operation with French language scholars.
