Call for papers - Epistemology and methodology

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.

The Exploitation of Subsurface Resources in Ancient Greece

The Greek term metallon may refer to either a mine or a quarry, whether used for the extraction of rock, ore, or salt. In this sense, it does not denote the nature of the resources themselves, but rather their shared origin: the subsurface. This common provenance opens the door to a cross-disciplinary reflection on the exploitation and management of such resources in ancient Greece. In recent decades, the study of the past has seen a growing interest in environmental questions. A key dimension of this research concerns the relationship between ancient societies and their environment: how did human groups interact with their surroundings to meet their needs, build infrastructure, or produce everyday objects? In this field, the rise of interdisciplinary approaches – at the intersection of archaeological sciences and historical inquiry – combined with recent methodological advances, has led to major developments in the field.

Italian catholic culture through the periodical press between reconstruction and the “Economic miracle”

"Diacronie. Studi di Storia Contemporanea" Journal (December 2026)

After the World War II in Italy there was a proliferation of periodical publications differing in orientation, field of interest and groups of pression, which in the framework of the new democratic and republican order came to constitute a fundamental vehicle of ideas and cultural models, as well as an instrument employable in the political struggle. This development also affected the Catholic world. This call aims to investigate publishing “products” produced by ecclesiastical or secular entities for a wide or targeted audience, aimed at instructing, educating, outlining models, awakening devotions and other religious practices, as well as directing social and political behavior.

The Night in the Modern Era. Interpretations, Conflicts, and Changes

"Diacronie. Studi di Storia Contemporanea" Journal (March 2027)

The nighttime holds both symbolic and practical meanings, representing a space of negotiations, conflicts and changes in societies. It has its own rhythms and customs. This special issue od Diachronie aims to explore the theme of the night in the Modern era, with particular attention to the social, cultural and political dynamics characterised by their occurrence at nightfall. What experiences, actors, and practices transpass the boundaries between legality and subversion in nightlife? Or what metaphorical meanings has the night taken on?

Extreme Rigth and Democracy in Europe After the Second World War

Coexistence, Contrasts, Contradictions

It seems urgent to reflect on how democracies have responded to the presence of extreme rightwing movements, both in terms of political practices and rhetoric. Have democracies actively opposed the extreme right, or have they opted for strategies of containment and coexistence? Equally important is to examine the perspective of the extreme right: how has it interpreted and narrated the (supposed) coexistence with the democratic system? How has it dealt with the legacy of fascism and to what extent has it adapted to the culture of democracy? This conference will analyze the language and culture of the extreme right, paying special attention to its critiques of democracy, including its reaction of Enlightenment values and claims that democracy operates a double standard, tolerant in theory, but marginalizing and punishing the extreme right in practice. Giving historical depth to the extreme right’s relationship with democracy will allow for new insights into today’s public debates.

Interspecies Interactions in the Visual Arts (1550-1914). Collaborations, Experimentations, Oppositions

This symposium proposes to study how artists have not only observed animals and, in some cases, lived alongside them, but have also sometimes attributed agency to them. The idea of an active relationship between the artist and the animal raises fundamental questions about the role of animals in artistic production. Are they merely objects of study, partners in creation, or autonomous agents in a larger process? How does the making of artworks define or blur boundaries between humans and other-than-humans?
