New Research on Ancient Armenia: Geneva Workshop for Graduate Students and Postdoctoral Researchers, University of Geneva, June 8, 2018

The Armenian Studies team (Unité d’arménien) at the MESLO Department, University of Geneva, is pleased to invite graduate students and early career researchers (not yet holding a permanent position in Academia) to present their current research on any aspect of Ancient and Medieval Armenia to an audience of their peers.

The workshop has been conceived as an international forum in which the newest generation of researchers in the field can engage in meaningful discussion on methodologies, problems and perspectives. Presentations detailing work in progress, research projects, and innovative approaches are welcome. In the interest of drawing attention to comparatively less-known topics, preference may be given to subjects other than ‘Classical’ 5th-century language, literature, history and art.

Limited grants are available to assist with travel and accommodation expenses: those who cannot obtain financial support from their home institution and would otherwise be unable to attend are invited to submit a short statement in support of their request along with their abstracts.
