Curriculum Vitae

Inês Thomas Almeida

Born in the Dominican Republic, Ines Thomas Almeida holds a PhD in Historical Musicology from Universidade Nova de Lisboa and is a Researcher at the Institute for Literature and Tradition Studies (Faculty of Social and Human Sciences of the New University of Lisbon) with a Post-Doc fellowship in the Project RELIT-Rom Literary Revisions: the creative application of ancient novels (15th-18th centuries) supported by the Fundação Para a Ciência e Tecnologia and Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian. Her PhD thesis, with the title "The German gaze: Music practice in Portugal at the end of the Ancien Régime according to German sources" (supervised by Rui Vieira Nery), was unanimously awarded the highest classification. She lived in Germany between 2003 and 2016 and created a NGO for the Portuguese community in Berlin. In this context, she was responsible for numerous cultural, social and humanitarian initiatives, both for their concept as for their funding, having been distinguished by several institutions for her work on behalf of the community. Her main research interests are music in the 18th century, modern travel literature, early modern Portuguese and Spanish romancero, women and music, and transnational cultural networks. She is part of the project AVEMUS - Music in concertato style at the Real Mosteiro de São Bento da Avé-Maria do Porto (1764-1834), funded by FCT, which investigates the musical activity of the nuns of this Benedictine convent. She has published several peer-reviewed articles in scientific journals and maintains an intense activity as a lecturer, both in national and international colloquiums of her scientific area, and at the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and the National Theatre of São Carlos. She is responsible for the creation of the course "Women Composers: History of Female Composition", which she teaches to undergraduate students at the New University of Lisbon, and an invited professor at the PhD in Gender Studies (ISCSP-ULISBOA, NOVA SCHOOL OF LAW and NOVA FCSH), with the module "Music and Gender" of the Advanced Themes Seminar. She is Deputy Commissioner of the exhibition "Madalena de Azeredo Perdigão (1923-1989): let's take risks" at the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation between April and July 2023. Projects for 2023 include the publication of a book on Women Composers and a monograph on the feminist writer and activist Elisa de Paiva Curado (1858-1933).
