Within and Without: Representations of Ageing: International Symposium III: Special Issue

Within & Without III is the third edition of the Within and Without Old Age: International Symposium on Representations of Ageing series and will be held on-line at the University of Lisbon Centre for English Studies (ULICES/CEAUL) on January, 9th, 2024.

It will provide an opportunity to exchange ideas on cultural ageing from multiple perspectives. Within & Without III is an international event bringing together scholars from different universities who will discuss and share research on age-related issues in order to establish new discourses and guidelines for ageing studies in general. The event will also reflect the need to continue speaking about gender equality, vulnerability and the responsibility for the well-being of others. Some of the speakers will include Professor Sarah Falcus (University of Huddersfield, UK), Professor Katsura Sako (University of Keio, Japan) and Professor Heike Hartung (University of Graz, Austria).

The event will be chaired by Professor Zuzanna Zarebska (CEAUL/ULICES/FLUL), the PI of the Women’s Lives in Time: Bodies, Homes and Voices: Ageing Women Research Project.
