The Enkidu Summer Conference, welcoming
submissions from all branches of the social sciences, humanities, as well
as the arts, takes place every year in Mexico City with a number of
thematic subconferences throghout the Summer in other Mexican cities. The
primary focus of this inclusive and interdisciplinary annual conference
organized by Enkidu Magazine, a news agency specialized in Human Rights,
Culture, Gender, Sexualities and Society and the International Society for
Cultural History and Cultural Studies (CHiCS) in Mexico City is to
interrogate storytelling, memories and identity constructions from a wide
range of perspectives, and in their manifold cultural and social
manifestations.
The conference has developed into a unique
international academic forum for interpretative approaches in the
humanities and social sciences. The conference has traditionally also been
a forum for discussing creative historical and political memory,
remembering and forgetting of the past, as well as translations between
cultures and re-negotiations and re-constructions of cultural identities
in one one way or another.
The conference is organised into a large
number of thematic sessions and sub-conferences addressing several
different issues. The conference has an exceptional multilingual and
multi-cultural approach, typically bringing together participants from all
over the world to share and exchange their research, experiences and ideas
in a truly multicultural, multilingual and interdisciplinary academic
environment.
CHICS' academic conferences are
characterized by traditional paper presentations in panel sessions with
three speakers each, followed by lively exchange, dialogue and interaction
between speakers and audience in many small groups, workshops and seminars
rather than by formal plenary sessions. Our conferences provide a forum
for diverse voices from all over the world, to come together and make
connections across linguistic, cultural and academic barriers.
The conference sessions are conducted in
Castillian and English. Occasionally, the conference also has sessions
conducted in German and French. Some sessions will be bilingual and
conducted in both languages with interpreters. Other sessions will be
conducted in one of the two conference languages, and the session
moderator will give summaries of the paper in the other language. Many
sessions are being conducted with interpreters for sign language (on
request).
The conference also is a major cultural and
artistic event in Mexico and around the conference, several art
exhibitions, theater plays, concerts and book presentations take place.

Bhajans por
Otelo |
[21.02.2009]:
Bajo la dirección de
la Maestra Claudia Ríos, cuyo arte y
destreza ya ha sido disfrutado por
el público, nos llega este Otelo
de Shakespeare, ‘a la Michel’,
por medio de un alma que desborda el
espacio teatral y penetra hasta el
fondo de cada uno de los
espectadores en este conflicto
humano retacado y siempre con la
pátina del “monstruo de ojos
verdes”...

Entrevista Exclusiva con la Maestra
Claudia Ríos, directora de Otelo
Yo considero que en
una obra donde el texto es tan
espectacular, lo único que cabe es
el texto y el trabajo del actor.
Todo lo demás es para apoyar estos
dos elementos, entonces, lo mejor es
tener un espacio vacío que sugiera
estas atmósferas pero que lo
importante, el acento para mí está
en el texto y en el trabajo del
actor...
