& PUBLICATION
We work towards creating a research archive and academic publications.
By compiling the studies, explorations, and analyses conducted by participants in our programs, we aim to develop a valuable documentary library. This archive will become a resource for future researchers, perpetuating our mission of knowledge preservation and dissemination.
FIRST PUBLICATION COMING SOON
The founding members of DoRCAL, Sasha Contesse and Steven Atkinson, have conducted historical and literary research on the commune of Beynac-et-Cazenac. They have discovered major elements that shed light on a forgotten part of its history. Their findings will be presented in July 2024 at the XXVIIth Congress of the International Arthurian Society (IAS). This will be followed by a scientific publication and a public presentation.
COLLABORATIVE
ARTS & RESEARCH
Artistic residencies, literary retreats, DoRCAL aims to encourage all initiatives that create meaning and knowledge. The privileged environment of the Valley of the Five Castles is conducive to this richness, and we wish to provide the means for it to flourish.
