    Connecting Courts and Coasts : Trade, Knowledge, and Cultural Networks in the Western Indian Ocean

    From Post-Classical India to the Late Mughal Era

    This conference explores the multifaceted networks of exchange that characterized the Western Indian Ocean from the Post-Classical period through the late Mughal era (approximately aligning with the Medieval to Early Modern periods in the West). The maritime connections between South Asia, the Middle East, and East Africa created intricate webs of commercial, intellectual, and cultural exchanges that profoundly shaped the region's historical development and fostered a deeper appreciation of societies across space and time.

    The Armenian Genocide: New Interpretations and Cross-Disciplinary Conversations

    The study of the Armenian genocide often remains confined to restricted circlesof specialists and interdisciplinarity is rarely promoted. And, despite the valuing ofcomparative research, it is frequently reduced to the juxtaposition of case studies. Researchon the Armenian genocide is now ready to address more cross-cutting issues and broaderdiscussions on mass violence.This conference asks: how can the social sciences, memory studies, and genocide studiescontribute to a broader understanding of the Armenian genocide and its aftermath? Andreciprocally: what is the contribution of research on the Armenian genocide to ourunderstanding of mass crimes and to the social sciences?

    Water, Humanities, Territories, Imaginary

    Faced with the global scarcity of water and the “aridification” of a growing number of regions around the world, this symposium aims to question the productivist and short-termist logics of our water management methods. To this end, we invite you to take an in-depth look at cases of territorial development in arid or semi-arid regions, not limiting ourselves to the technical question of water management, but broadening our view to include all the research and dynamics underlying hydrographic designs in arid environments.

    Human Consequences of Past Volcanic-Induced Climatic Shocks

    Large volcanic eruptions can have a substantial impact on climate across the globe. These climatic disturbances can, in turn, have severe human consequences – often very remote from the original eruption. To understand how such eruptions have impacted history (and may impact society in the future) we need to understand how eruptions, climate and society interact: To what extent can we attribute social impacts to volcanic eruptions? How do different eruptions impact different societies and is there any consistency between these impacts? And why are some societies more or less affected by certain eruptions?

    Third Space and Ancient World Studies

    The Spatial Turn of the 1980’s shifted the attention of scholars in Humanities, Social, and Cultural Studies towards questions of human interaction with landscape and the physical environment. At the same time, the term space was defined as more than just physical places, rather, social spaces and the production of such in the context of human interaction became the leading research focus. This conference seeks to develop the research on spatial perception in ancient societies by gathering scholars of any discipline in the Humanities, Social Sciences and Cultural Sciences to discuss spatial concepts from their own disciplinary perspective.

    Haunted Archives of Livingness

    Visual Culture and the Politics of Care in the Age of Ecological Entanglement

    Titled Haunted Archives of Livingness: Visual Culture and the Politics of Care in the Age of Ecological Entanglement, this year’s edition invites reflections on how contemporary artistic practices engage with ecological, political, and affective entanglements through archival thinking. In light of deepening environmental crises and social inequalities, the archive emerges not only as a site of memory and power but as a porous and generative terrain—an unstable corpus of living matter in constant metamorphosis. The conference aims to examine how artists, researchers, and cultural practitioners mobilize photography and visual media to activate archives that are haunted by histories of violence, yet reanimated through care, resistance, and speculative reimaginings.

    Etruscan Landscapes

    Power, Society, and Territorial Dynamics in a Changing Italy (cent. 4th BC-1st AD)

    Rome’s conquest of Italy wrecked the existing political environment. This struggle involved Greeks, peoples of Central Italy, Gauls, Etruscans, and shaped the Mediterranean world, giving the historical base on which our own was built. Yet, it remains not fully understood. Through a multidisciplinary analysis integrating archaeological and historical sources, this conference aims to investigate the transformation of power dynamics—military, economic, and social—and their impact on both urban centres and peripheral territories.

    Pius XII and Decolonization: Catholicism in North Africa and the Levant

    1939-1958

    this conference examines the Catholic Church’s engagement with decolonization in North Africa and the Levant during the pontificate of Pius XII (1939–1958). This conference seeks to explore key questions: What role did the Catholic Church – both as an institution and as a diverse religious community – play in decolonization? How did Vatican diplomacy interact with local clergy, indigenous populations, and political movements? To what extent were these interactions shaped by competition, hybridization, and exchange? How did decolonization influence doctrinal transformations in the 1940s and 1950s, paving the way for the Second Vatican Council? The conference aims to critically engage with newly available sources, prioritizing transnational perspectives and highlighting the agency of marginalized actors. In addition to the recently declassified archives of Pius XII, scholars employing diverse methodologies and archival materials are welcomed.
