Call for Abstracts
The Croatian Philosophical Society and the Department of Philosophy of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Split cordially invite you to the
XVIII Mediterranean Roots of Philosophy - Mediterranean Humanism: On the 500th Anniversary of the Death of Marko Marulić
This year marks the 500th anniversary of the death of Marko Marulić, the father of Croatian literature, a humanist writer praised for his philosophically stimulating works. Because of that, we decided to dedicate this year's conference to Mediterranean humanism.
The conference is open to submissions related to the philosophy and culture of humanism and the Renaissance in the Mediterranean, not necessarily related to the work of Marko Marulić.
In addition to this special theme, the conference is also open to two permanent themes: philosophy in the Mediterranean and globalisation challenges and multiculturalism in the Mediterranean.
According to that, the symposium program will consist of the following thematic units:
I. Marko Marulić in the Past, Present and Future
II. Humanism and Renaissance in the Mediterranean
III. Philosophy in the Mediterranean: authors, theories, concepts
IV. Globalisation challenges and Multiculturalism in the Mediterranean
Interdisciplinary research is welcomed.
