Phd and Master students of the Rodopis cultural association, with the support of the Department of History, Cultures, Civilisations (Dipartimento di Storia, Culture, Civiltà) of the University of Bologna announce a series of 6 postgraduate seminars to take place in October and November 2016 at the Alma Mater Studiorum – University of Bologna.
We aim to support discussion and meeting among students of different provenance, interests and age: therefore papers will deal with ancient history, philology, archaeology, numismatics, papyrology, epigraphy, art history, religion history, anthropology, sociology, Byzantine studies,without any kind of subject restrictions. Papers may be presented in English or Italian, in order to make the seminars as accessible as possible.
The seminars will be held in Bologna on a weekly basis on Thursday afternoons: scheduled dates are 20 and 27 October, 10, 17 and 24 November, 1 December. Every meeting will feature two presentations of 30min each, followed by discussion.
Phd and Master students are invited to submit a 200-250 words abstract, also suggesting possible dates during which they would NOT be available.
Abstracts must be sent in an anonymous .pdf file (file name: first three words of the title) no later than 19th September 2016 to ricercheaconfronto2016@gmail.com (email subject: RAC 2016 abstract).
A commission chosen among the association members (excluding the receiver of the abstract) will select the successful papers, whose authors will be contacted by the 29th September 2016.
Travel and accommodation expenses will not be covered, but all necessary informations and logistic support will be provided.
Rodopis will also release a formal certificate of attendance if needed, at the end of the seminar.
