IL PIETRISCO PROSE: Comics/Graphic Novels and Health Humanities

Chiara Battisti and António Duarte
Comics/Graphic Novels and Health Humanities
May 26, 2021
6 pm GMT

This third lecture of the Facets of the Health Humanities series, hosted by “Il Pietrisco” Prose, will see Chiara Battisti and António Duarte explore the coalescing of the medium of the comics/graphic novels and the practice of Health Humanities. What has been defined as “graphic medicine” emerges at the crossroads of health humanities and narrative medicine and combines “the principle so of narrative medicine with the exploration of the visual system of comic art, interrogating the representation of physical and emotional signs and symptoms within the medium” (Graphic Medicine Manifesto 1).

IL PIETRISCO JOURNAL - Call for articles - January 2021

Call for Articles – The Learned Online Journal of Modern and Contemporary Studies – Poetry – Prose – Cinema, Il Pietrisco invites article for its Inaugural Special Issue on Poetry as the ‘Verb Incarnate’, Illness and the Phenomenological Body. 

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (1:1) opens John’s Gospel of the King James’s translation of the Bible. It is the very first verse whose three sentences introduce the principle of creation through the ‘Word’ and then progressively associates it and identifies it with God.
