HUMAN RIGHTS ACROSS THE DISCIPLINES / HUMAN RIGHTS AND THEATER
A TRIBUTE TO REVISTA CONJUNTO: CASA DE LAS AMERICAS 50 + 1
University of Minnesota and College of St. Benedict /St. John's University
March 12-14, 2015
Providing a forum for interdiscursive theoretical discussions and dialogue, The State of Iberoamerican Studies Series, at the Spanish and Portuguese Department, supports a number of critical symposia that bring together not only the monologues of traditional scholarly disciplines, but also the powerful, struggling and often unarticulated voices, postures and assumptions of contemporary non-canonical, grassroots cultural discourses. Organized by Luis Ramos-García, Nelsy Echávez-Solano, and Alberto Justiniano in collaboration with the College of St. Benedict / St. John's University; Teatro del Pueblo; and other interdepartmental, intercollegiate, and international organizations, this symposium on Human Rights as well as Art and Theater festival; celebrating its twentieth version, dedicates its program to the 50 years (+1) anniversary of the Revista Conjunto: Casa de las Américas (La Habana-Cuba), and to the recent release of Una montaña en el horizonte: Los Audaces. Cuarenta y cinco años de teatro arequipeño.
