It is about examining the close relationships between translation and creation, with the help of some examples, especially the poetry of Ana Cristina César, whose work highlights the way in which literary creation is nourished by readings, quotations, borrowings and translations, the most miscellaneous. The case in question makes it possible to broaden the understanding of creation through the reassessment of certain commonplaces that still surround the reflection on poetry and literary creation.

The event "Can Artificial Intelligence Help Counter Hate? Decoloniality and Online Extreme Speech / Pode a IA ajudar a combater o ódio? Decolonialidade e discurso extremo online). Departing from a technocentric perspective, this lecture will present the theory of “extreme speech”, highlighting the serious consequences of the “normality” of hate in contemporary digital environments and its deep roots in the enduring structures of coloniality. The lecture will be based on the “Extreme” chapter of the recently published book, “Digital Unsettling: Decoloniality and Dispossession in the Age of Social Media” (co-authored with Ethiraj Gabriel Dattatreyan, New York University Press, 2023) and the article, “Ethical Scaling for Content Moderation: Extreme Speech and the (In)Significance of Artificial Intelligence” (co-authored with Antonis Maronikolakis and Axel Wisiorek, Big Data & Society). Sahana Udupa is Professor of Media Anthropology at the University of Munich (LMU München), where she founded the For Digital Dignity program, with an international network of researchers, policymakers and civil society groups to imagine and promote spaces for online political expression line collaboratively.

Indigenous religions of Mesoamerica
Book launch and debate with the author Johannes Neurath (Museo Nacional de Antropología, Mexico)
Participants:
Eduardo Natalino dos Santos (University of São Paulo)
Renato Sztutman (University of São Paulo)
The Center for Amerindian Studies (CestA) and the Center for Mesoamerican and Andean Studies (CEMA) at the University of São Paulo (USP) invite you to launch the book Las religiones indigenous de Mesoamérica, by Johannes Neurath (National Institute of Anthropology and History, National Museum of Anthropology, Mexico). One of the most significant contributions of this book is to question the descriptive and explanatory limits of concepts that come from theology and the history of religions (polytheism, cosmology, mythology, sacrifice, etc.) to address the thought and ritual practices of the indigenous peoples of Mesoamerica. In place of this procedure, the work seeks to understand Mesoamerican indigenous religions in their own relational logic. On the occasion, the author will talk and debate with Eduardo Natalino dos Santos (USP) and Renato Sztutman (USP).
