Madrid, 26-27 April 2018
The Critic|all Conference is a place and an
event. A place because it is an academic meeting point for
researchers, teachers and architects interested in architectural culture and
criticism, and an event because the forum that takes place during
those days generates a fruitful knowledge, where the intellectual and
scientific impulse is higher than the sum of the valuable individual
contributions.
In its third edition, under the topic #un-thology, we propose to reflect upon anthologies as an
academic genre that has had a significant role in the formation of the history of architectural theory, and how this type of text compilations could continue to be instrumental in the forthcoming times.
The 3rd edition of the Critic|all Conference welcomes
contributions that critically address these and other questions related to the
proposed topic. We expect to receive two types of materials:
Con-texts
Short introductory essays that provide a context for a text
dated between 1993 and the present and that is credited to be a significant
spot in the recent history of architectural theory. In addition to the
necessary review of what has already been said about the text, the paper should
develop original arguments and clearly state the reasons why it should be
included in a hypothetical Un-thology. We do not expect mere
laudatory comments, but new insights on already published material.
The original text must not exceed 5.000 words, and should
accompany the submittal. Justified excerptions are allowed. Papers should be
2.000 words length and must be written in English, unless the language of the
source text is Spanish.
No abstract is needed. Peer reviewing will be carried out in
a single phase taking into consideration the full-paper submittal.
Full-paper Deadline: 1 February 2018
Length: 2.000 words max.
Research Articles
Well constructed essays than engage with the
problematization of the concept of Anthology, whether confronting two opposite
discourses, analyzing the structure of previous compilations or discussing the
procedures of architectural ideas dissemination. We expect interpretive work
that draws new relations between things. The most basic form of this type of
manuscript should present a thesis, back it up with arguments in the supporting
body paragraphs and then bring the paper to a conclusion.
Papers should be 5.000 words length and must be written in
English and will be preceded by a 300 words Abstract. Peer reviewing will be
carried out in two phases.
Abstract Deadline: 8 November 2017
Full-paper Deadline: 1 February 2018
Length: 5.000 words max.
