With the overall theme focusing on cohesion and unity, we also encourage joint speakers to present areas of overlap between their fields of research within a broad range of chronological and geographical parameters.

Suggested themes of discussion:

  • Social, political, cultural and religious interactions
  • Community and otherness
  • (Dis)unity and conflict
  • Reception and (re)interpretation
  • Encounters and trade

If you are interested in presenting your research (as either a 15 minute paper or a poster), please send a title and a 250 word abstract to classarch@nottingham.ac.uk by Friday 17 November 2017.

Please submit papers to the conference team

Is this for you?

The aim of this one-day conference is to bring together students and staff in order to celebrate the merging of the departments of Classics and Archaeology at the University of Nottingham.

The conference welcomes all PhD students and early career researchers working in academic fields involved in the study of the past (Archaeology, Classics, History, and Theology and Religious Studies), exploring and comparing how different approaches (eg, reception, material culture, language and literature, history, philosophy, anthropology) can lead to similar or dissimilar interpretations of the past.
