O mais recente concurso para o financiamento público a projetos de investigação científica, promovido pela Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (Ministério da Ciência, Tecnologia e Ensino Superior), resultou na recomendação para financiamento, na categoria “projecto exploratório”, do projecto intitulado “Formulando a relação entre humanos e outras espécies no Portugal medievo” (Hypothesising Human-Animal Relations in Medieval Portugal) (EXPL/HAR-HIS/1135/2021).

Com início em 2022 e a duração de ano e meio, o projecto, liderado por Tiago Viúla de Faria, investigador do Instituto de Estudos Medievais da NOVA-FCSH, com a colaboração do historiador da arte Rémy Cordonnier (IEM / Bibliothèque de Saint-Omer / Institut de Recherches Historiques du Septentrion), visa congregar as metodologias e abordagens epistemológicas da história, arqueologia, estudos literários, artes visuais e comunicação de ciência por forma a enquadrar a reflexão sobre a relação entre indivíduo e comunidades medievais com o mundo animal.

O projecto, de acrónimo FALCO, terá efectivamente como caso de estudo a interacção do homem medievo com a ave de rapina. Para tal, foram assumidas parcerias com o município de Salvaterra de Magos, na sua valência Falcoaria Real, e com o Laboratorio de Arqueociências da Direção Geral do Património Cultural.

The latest competitive call for R&D funding from the Portuguese government’s Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT) has resulted in the project ‘Hypothesising Human-Animal Relations in Medieval Portugal’ (EXPL/HAR-HIS/1135/2021) being recommended for funding — one of only six winning applications in the FCT’s ‘exploratory project’ category. Spanning eighteen months starting early next year, the project will be led by Dr Tiago Viúla de Faria, who is based at the Instituto de Estudos Medievais (NOVA University of Lisbon), with the collaboration of art historian Dr Rémy Cordonnier (IEM / Bibliothèque de Saint-Omer / Institut de Recherches Historiques du Septentrion) atop a research team of twelve.

The project’s main goal will be to bring together the methodologies and epistemological approaches of history, archaeology, literary studies, the visual arts, and science communication in order to frame reflection on the relationship between medieval individuals and communities and the animal world. The project, acronym FALCO, will have as a case study the interaction found between medieval man and bird of prey. To this end, a research partnership has been established between NOVA, the municipality of Salvaterra de Magos (Falcoaria Real), and with the national directorate for cultural heritage (Laboratorio de Arqueociências).

The Käte Hamburger Centre for Apocalyptic and Post-Apocalyptic Studies (CAPAS) is a Centre for Advanced Studies at Heidelberg University. It gathers international scholars and scientists to research collaboratively on ideas and experiences of the doom of worlds and their aftermath. Our mission is to encourage the dialogue between the humanities and social and natural sciences, relating to (A) the apocalyptic and postapocalyptic imaginary (ideas, images, discourses), (B) historical events that were perceived or framed as (post-)apocalyptic experiences, and (C) current, empirically observable developments that could bring about the end of the world as we know it, and its aftermath scenarios. CAPAS is dedicated to innovative research relevant to society at large, particularly in areas beyond traditional academic boundaries. For further information on CAPAS, please refer to the website https://www.capas.uni-heidelberg.de.
