16-18 October 2014, The Making of the Humanities IV, Royal Netherlands Institute, Rome, Italy

Date: 16-18 October 2014
Location: Royal Netherlands Institute, Rome, Italy
Deadline: 1 June 2014

This is the fourth of a biennially organized conference that brings together scholars and historians interested in the comparative history of the humanities (philology, art history, historiography, linguistics, logic, literary studies, musicology, theatre studies, media studies, a.o.). Although histories of single humanities disciplines already exist for a long time, the history of the humanities as a whole has only very recently been investigated, and the first monographs have just appeared.

We welcome papers on any aspect of the history of humanities, but we especially encourage submissions on the conference theme Connecting Disciplines. Deadline for abstract submissions: 1 June 2014
