Poetics of Selfhood: Writing and Other Constructions Faculty of Letters, Lisbon University, March 3-‐5, 2014 Welcome to the Poetics of Selfhood Conference! This is the first international conference organized by the interdisciplinary research group Poetics of Selfhood: Memory, Imagination, and Narrativity with the institutional support of several university research centers. The research project, from which this scientific event stems, intends to explore a wide array of issues related to the narrative construction of meaning and the experience of selfhood understood as the embodied, semiotic, creative process of relationships and identities. Philosophy, Literature, and Social Sciences are, therefore, invited to share their perspectives and methods to broaden and deepen this promising realm of study. We thank you all for your participation and wish you an enjoyable time at the Conference and in Lisbon!
