    Sociability and the Travelling Letter

    Message, Medium, Mobility in Europe and the Colonies in the Long Eighteenth Century (1650-1850)

    The long eighteenth century is widely recognisedby scholars as a golden age of letter writing, characterised by the expansion of transnational and transatlantic correspondence networks among the elites. Particularly in Britain, this period witnessed an unprecedented enthusiasm for epistolary exchange, which led to a proliferation of publications—ranging from scholarly productions such as theoretical treatises and letter-writing manuals, to literary works, whether fictional, sentimental, general, or biographical. These developments contributed to a redefinition of epistolary conventions, narrative models, and often gendered representations of letter writing.

    The Archaeologists’ City

    The call for papers is now open for the new edition of the Intersections series, dedicated to the cross-disciplinary nature of urban history and the dialogue between disciplines, methods and perspectives of study. The 2026 seminar will focus on the city as seen by archaeologists: not only the ancient or medieval city, but all forms and temporalities of the urban dimension — from abandonment to processes of transformation, from continuities to industrial and contemporary landscapes.

    Porous Politics: Diasporic Engagement and the Redefinition of Party Politics in Central and Eastern Europe

    Global migration has generated new transnational political formats and fundamentally challenged the traditional state-centric focus of political science. This phenomenon of Porous Politics is defined by connections, contiguities, and loyalties across borders. It is especially critical in Central and Eastern Europe, where significant emigration has created influential diasporic communities. These diasporas actively transmit political remittances, engaging with their countries of origin. This engagement is strategically mirrored by the national political arena, as parties and elites establish extraterritorial organizations to mobilize these new constituencies.

    Looted Art and the Art Market: Nazi Art Theft in Belgium, Europe, and its aftermath

    Anchored in a dual research approach, the ProvEnhance project simultaneously examines the trajectories of a selection of artworks from the collections of the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium and the roles of participants within the Belgian art market between 1933 and 1960, situating both within the broader dynamics of cultural dispossession and the post-war approach. Integrating provenance research, art market studies, and data science, the project advances an interdisciplinary framework for analysing the movements of cultural objects and their connections to actors and power structures shaped by the Nationalist Socialist era and its aftermath.

    Transnational Research for a Wider Impact

    The Role of Cultural Heritage in a Changing World

    This event synthesizes the findings from 22 transnational research projects to explore the societal impact of cultural heritage research through five interconnected thematic axes. The first axis examines methodological innovations in digital heritage, analyzing the transformative potential of technologies such as AI, virtual modeling, and advanced data analytics in research and protection. The second investigates participatory and co-creative frameworks for community engagement, assessing their role in sustaining heritage, reinforcing identity, and fostering social cohesion for sustainable development.

    Behind the Cloak of Anonymity: Ethical Agency and Cultural Narratives in the Age of Digital Innovation

    At first glance, the concept of “anonymity” may seem simple: any actor who acts without revealing their identity is acting anonymously. However, this superficial simplicity hides considerable technological, social, and political complexity. What conditions make anonymity necessary for expression, cooperation, and judgment? The cultural, ethical, and narrative dimensions of “anonymity” in contemporary digital environments affect both administrative and creative life. With a perspective that combines the techniques of law with those of sociology, politicalscience, cultural studies, and narratology, this project seeks to uncover the cultural transformations that underpin “anonymity’ in practice, through its new or emerging instruments and narrative features.

    “Scientiae”: Disciplines of Knowing in the Early Modern World

    Building on Scientiae’s interdisciplinary legacy, and its study of the production and circulation of knowledge, we will underscore the interconnectedness of regions, periods, cultures, and material and intellectual traditions in the period between 1400 and 1800. Although centred around the emergence of modern natural science, Scientiae is intended for scholars working in any area of early-modern intellectual culture. The Scientiae network encompasses the long Renaissance period and seeks to integrate historiographical reflection into an approach that, since its creation, has been firmly rooted in epistemology and the history of science, as well as intellectual history, and the practice of knowledge in dialogue.

    “Colonial Communities” in the Mediterranean between Italian Unification and the Occupation of Libya

    The trilingual conference “Colonial Communities” in the Mediterranean between Italian Unification and the Occupation of Libya seeks to address a still relatively unexplored topic: the study of Italian communities abroad, with particular attention to the Mediterranean world in the period between national unification (1861) and the occupation of Libya (1911). At the core of this reflection lies the close, and not merely chronological, relationship between the migratory dynamics that characterized the early decades of unified Italy and the rise of colonial expansionism. The seminar therefore aims to investigate this connection through the specific lens offered by the Italian presence in North Africa and in the Ottoman Empire before the occupation of Libya.

    Arts and Crafts in the Late Ottoman Empire

    Rethinking Practices and Concepts of Material Culture in Syria and Beyond (18th - early 20th c.)

    The conference Arts and Crafts in the Late Ottoman Empire aims to advance art historical and interdisciplinary research on practices and concepts of material culture in Ottoman lands between the 18th and the early 20th centuries. While inviting contributions on all geographies of the Empire, our call for papers foregrounds late Ottoman Syria as a case through which to expand the analytical and historical horizons of Islamic art and architecture studies and to contribute to broader debates in Ottoman and Arab historiographies of modernity. We encourage authors to consider the analytical frameworks—temporalities, epistemes, and materialities—that underpin the conference’s critical inquiry into the entangled modernities of Ottoman arts and crafts.

    Digital Humanities and Artificial Intelligence in African Studies

    The integration of digital humanities (DH) and artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the production of knowledge in African Studies, offering new opportunities for innovative analysis, dynamic visualisation and cross-cultural research. This shift has the potential to reimagine cultural heritage, widen access to diverse narratives, and amplify marginalised voices. However, it also raises urgent questions regarding equitable access, the representation of African languages, and the suitability of methodologies.

    Seeing the Other Empire

    British Travel Writing and Imperial Rivalry in Europe and the Near East, 1783–1914

    This conference aims to interrogate some of these British visions of rival empires in narrations published between 1783 and 1914. It would be interesting to analyse the practice of imagined colonialism, that is, how the British travellers cast a domineering gaze upon their imperial rivals when travelling in lands that were not colonies of the British crown.

    Invisible Actors in the Making of International Law (1750–2000)

    This interdisciplinary conference invites graduate students and early career researchers to consider the genealogy of international law since 1750. It aims to identify new or unrecognised actors – including individuals, groups, and institutions as well as non-human agents – and their contributions to the practices, interpretations, and applications of international law. How did they establish or challenge norms, customs, and institutions? How were their practices, actions, and ideas shaped into law? The event aims to historicise the making of international law by bringing together junior scholars of history and law and to provide a forum for the exploration of new ideas and alternative perspectives, combining and building upon historical and social scientific approaches.
