INVITATION | Sexta do Mês (@sextadomes) invites everyone to the October thematic panel!
Theme: “Cemetery (also) is city: Incursions into the cemetery spaces of São Paulo”
Cemeteries are complex spaces whose role goes far beyond the sanitary function of burying the dead. Their dynamics and appropriations permeate the most diverse aspects and show that the city of the dead is nothing more than a reflection of the city of the living.
The proposal of this Sexta do Mês panel is to reflect, based on three research projects by participants of the NAU Cemetery Studies group in São Paulo territories, on various ways of understanding how the cemetery is (also) city.
Guests:
* Aline Silva Santos (LabNAU Researcher) • @a_line123
* Isabella Latorre (Master's student in PPGAS/USP) •
* Mariana Sanfelicio (Master's student in PPGAS/USP) • @sanfis
* Pedro Shiraishi (Undergraduate student in Social Sciences at FFLC/USP) • @pedro_shiraishi
Date: October 31, 2025
Time: 5 PM
Location: Room 24 - Social Sciences Building, FFLCH/USP (Av. Prof. Luciano Gualberto, 315 - Butantã/SP)
