The first part of today´s news
is the announcement of the “Darmstädter Diskussionen”, an interdisciplinary
conference primarily aimed at PhD students and Post-docs in the field of
Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology which will be held in September 2015
at Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany. See below for more information
and for the Call for Papers (abstracts should be submitted until the 1st
of March 2015).
Secondly, we would like to share
with you the new and comprehensive database of UK doctoral theses being written
in the field of Classical Studies.
“We are pleased to
announce the 7th international and interdisciplinary conference “Darmstädter
Diskussionen”, which will take place in Darmstadt from 23rd to
26th September 2015.
“Darmstädter
Diskussionen” is an interdisciplinary conference for PhD students and Post-docs
which is organised annually by the Department of Ancient History and the
Department of Classical Archaeology at Technische Universität Darmstadt,
Germany. The growing popularity of the conference over the last years has
highlighted the importance of an academic event specifically designed for
highly qualified young researchers. Contrasting conferences with a strict
thematic or chronological avenue, “Darmstädter Diskussionen” deliberately
pursues an interdisciplinary and diachronic framework not only to provide young
scholars with a platform to discuss their research appropriately and to build
up their own networks but also to facilitate general intra- and
interdisciplinary communication in Classical Studies. Participants will find
ample room for the exchange of knowledge within their own peer group and
beyond.
Qualified PhD
students and Post-docs in the fields of Classics, Ancient History and
Archaeology are invited to present their latest research results. Presentations
will embrace research on the languages and literature, history, civilization,
art, and archaeology of the ancient world, placing strong emphasis on aspects
such as archaeological fieldwork, philology, theory and material approaches.
The official language of the conference is German. However, presentations in
English will also be accepted.
Application:
Please send an abstract
(including up to five keywords) of not more than 300 words and your CV
(personal data sheet) to the Organizing Committee by 1st March 2015. Please
send all files in pdf-format to: anmeldung@darmstaedter-diskussionen.de
With best regards,
Anabelle Thurn,
Marion Bolder-Boos, Dominik Maschek, Sven Page”
