Call Issue 2: Resistance

From Traditori, we are opening the call for submissions for our second issue, which will focus on resistance in its many forms, languages, and territories. We are interested in thinking about resistance not only as an act of confrontation, but also as a form of creation, memory, translation, care, and daily persistence. We understand resistance as a political gesture that is expressed in the intimate and the collective, in the aesthetic and the ethical, in what is said and what is kept silent.

We invite submissions that address resistance from diverse critical, artistic, or creative perspectives. Some of the topics that may be considered include: literary or theatrical representations of resistance; writings of the body as archive and dissent; translation as political practice; imposed silences and subversive languages; strategies of rewriting from the margins; feminist, queer, and decolonial narratives; community resistance to structural violence; dissident subjectivities; memory and counter-memory; editorial or curatorial practices as forms of cultural resistance.

We welcome academic articles, critical essays, annotated translations, creative works (poetry, drama, short fiction), and hybrid texts that engage with the proposed theme. We particularly value submissions that explore new forms of writing, resist established molds, and arise from situated experiences. All contributions will undergo a peer review process, with a commitment to ensuring an open, careful, and pluralistic editorial space
