Melania Terrazas, senior lecturer at the University of La Rioja, will be giving a lecture on contested boundaries and uncharted entanglements in Evelyn Conlon’s short story collection Moving About the Place (2023)”. In her stories, Conlon creates characters living and setting up relationships in countries in which she has had a longstanding interest: Australia, Japan, Italy, Indonesia, Monaco and South Africa. Terrazas will suggest that Conlon’s stories use transculturality as a method that addresses culture as a dynamic category and debunks ideological dichotomies.

How can we use drawings and graphic narratives to develop and communicate our research? The Border Readings group at ILOS has invited researchers and artists, guest researcher Kari Korolainen and ILOS researcher Fabian Heffermehl, to share with us their thoughts and experiences of using drawing and graphic storytelling to think about their research problems – and thinking with their research materials – in visual and bodily ways. Welcome to this open discussion, if you are interested in exploring these possibilities or already have experiences which you might share.

Recent research on migration and migration literature suggests that we can understand narratives of migration better by focusing on the temporal perspectives connected to integration, detention, trauma, crisis, and imagined futures.
