S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 The Edward Sa\u00efd Chair of the Federal University of S\u00e3o Paulo (Unifesp) is set to launch the first edition of Exilium – Revista de Estudos da Contemporaneidade <\/em>(Exilium, a Magazine on Contemporaneity Studies) on its website, at 4 pm next Monday (31). Edward Sa\u00efd, whom the Chair is named after, was one of the foremost Palestinian scholars and a major champion of Arab causes.<\/p>\n

The magazine launch session will feature Unifesp president Soraya Smaili and Postgraduate Studies and Research vice-president Lia Rita, plus Exilium<\/em> publishers Olg\u00e1ria Matos and Maria das Gra\u00e7as de Souza.<\/p>\n

At 5 pm, PhD professor \u00cdris Kantor of the University of S\u00e3o Paulo (USP) will deliver a conference on \u201cArab Maps and their Latin Erasure.\u201d<\/p>\n

Exilium<\/em> has been introduced as a magazine featuring reflections on the historical, geopolitical and cultural aspects of contemporaneity and all their implications, whether they be traumas or admiration as well as suffering.<\/p>\n

\u201cRevolving around the question of exile, of exodus, of departures voluntary or forced by war; racism, persecution or the loss of the symbolic and emotional sense belonging, Latin exilium relates to destabilization of the notion that one\u2019s native language or place of residence are their own by nature. Exilium reveals itself as openness to the Other, as a first pharmakon offered by foreigners, at once remedy to another life and hardship in a strange, foreign country. As Edward Sa\u00efd noted in his \u2018Reflections on Exile\u2019 regarding the Palestinian exodus following the creation of the State of Israel, a people was expatriated and its condition ever since, in refugee camps, wandering permanently, is the condition of entire populations now,\u201d the introduction reads.<\/p>\n

The 200-plus-page publication includes the Oriente e Ocidente<\/em> (East and West) section, featuring Edward Sa\u00efd\u2019s On the University<\/em>, Murilo Sebe Bom Meihy\u2019s Xang\u00f4 vai \u00e0 Meca: Isl\u00e3, com\u00e9rcio e as religi\u00f5es tradicionais iorub\u00e1s<\/em> (Shango goes to Mecca: Islam, trade and the traditional Yoruba religions), and Laymert Garcia dos Santos\u2019 Mahamoud Darwich, Palestino e Pele-Vermelha<\/em> (Mahmoud Darwich, Palestinian and Red-Skin).<\/p>\n

Exilium is already available online (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n
