SUMMARY:Mountains of Greece: Heritage narratives from the past for a sustainable future
DESCRIPTION:*PLEASE NOTE* the conference is now fully booked for in-person attendance. Please register to attend online via webinar. \nThe programme is subject to change – please refer to this webpage for the most up to date version. \nConference\nMountains of Greece: Heritage narratives from the past for a sustainable future\nThis special two-day conference at the British School at Athens aims to shed new light on the heritage of mountain regions in Greece. It explores how that heritage can best be protected for the future\, in the context of the current rapid expansion of mountain tourism and development in Greece. How can we activate the huge untapped potential for expanded engagement with history\, heritage\, and conservation in the mountain landscapes of Greece? How can we ensure a sustainable approach to environmental and cultural preservation? \nWe define heritage in the broadest possible sense\, to include archaeological\, botanical\, and cultural heritage\, encompassing not only physical sites and material culture\, but also stories and images of mountain life\, from antiquity to the 21st century. The conference brings together academics\, writers\, botanists\, conservationists\, policy makers\, mountain tourism professionals\, and local community representatives to share their distinctive perspectives. We also aim to take a comparative approach\, joining up the challenges faced by Greek mountain communities and organisations with similar challenges from other mountain regions around the world. \nGenerously funded by the University of St Andrews Impact and Innovation Fund\, in association with the St Andrews Mountains of Greece project\, with additional support from the Society for Classical Studies “Ancient Worlds\, Modern Communities” Initiative and the Society for the Promotion of Hellenic Studies. \nPoster image: composite of Olympos (above) and Erymanthos (below)\, photographs provided by Jason König\, designed by the BSA. \nOrganisers: \nProf Jason König (University of St Andrews)\, \nMaria Christodoulou (The Greek Herbalist)\, \nDr Faidon Moudopoulos-Athanasiou (Barcelona Supercomputing Center)\, \nProf Rebecca Sweetman (British School at Athens) \nProgramme \nRegistration: \nTo attend online or in-person\, please register using the links in the programme. For capacity and security reasons\, it is strictly necessary to register for in person participation. \nHybrid conference online and in-person.

As a result\, the Greek gymnasium as a structure and as an institution has been repeatedly been at the centre of scholarly attention. Contributions in earlier scholarship have significantly furthered our understanding of its social role\, its politics\, and its role in shaping Hellenic identity and paideia in the Graeco-Roman world. However\, due to the complexity of such topics and the amount of new evidence that keeps coming to light through archaeological survey\, various aspects of gymnasium life still remain largely unexplored. For example\, we still lack an up to date diachronic analysis of the gymnasium’s development and social role\, as well as of the similarities and/or temporal and local variations and specificities across the Greek world\, throughout its history. \nThe aim of the conference is to discuss literary and visual depictions of training and gymnasium life from the Archaic Period until Late Antiquity\, and their role in creating and shaping meaning for its participants and the citizen body more broadly. Another key goal of this conference is to transcend the simplistic  conception that the citizen training began and ended in the space of the gymnasium. Throughout the civic landscape\, monuments that celebrated achievements and contributions of prominent citizens made references to the gymnasium and its crucial role in their development as citizens. The agora\, the theatre\, and all public spaces became theatres of political life\, in which various communities negotiated their ideas about civic education and tried to impose their views of what being an ideal citizen was\, or should have been. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row rt_row_background_width=”fullwidth” rt_row_content_width=”default” rt_row_style=”default-style” rt_row_height=”” rt_column_gaps=”” rt_row_shadows=”” rt_row_borders=”” rt_bg_effect=”classic” rt_bg_image_repeat=”repeat” rt_bg_size=”cover” rt_bg_position=”right top” rt_bg_attachment=”scroll” rt_bg_layer=”” rt_bg_video_format=”self-hosted”][vc_column rt_bg_effect=”classic” rt_bg_image_repeat=”repeat” rt_bg_size=”auto auto” rt_bg_position=”right top” rt_bg_attachment=”scroll”][vc_column_text] \nThe conference will take place in Athens on June 13-15\, 2024 (in the premises of the the Swedish Institute at Athens and the Academy of Athens).

SUMMARY:Conference: New Directions in the Archaeology of Roman Greece: Connectivity\, Interaction and Innovation
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nNEW DIRECTIONS IN THE ARCHAEOLOGY OF ROMAN GREECE: CONNECTIVITY\, INTERACTION AND INNOVATION\nConference at the British School at Athens\, 15–17 May 2024\nWe are delighted to invite you to a three-day international conference entitled “New Directions in the Archaeology of Roman Greece: Connectivity\, Interaction and Innovation\,” which will take place at the British School at Athens (Greece) from Wednesday\, May 15th to Friday\, May 17th\, 2024. \nThe main goal of this conference is to integrate the research on Greece during the Roman Empire and Greece’s position within the wider Roman Mediterranean into the current Roman archaeology scholarship while actively engaging with the conceptual agenda of interconnectivity\, identities\, and social inequalities. The conference aims to explore how new networks of connectivity and mobility impacted Greek communities amidst the economically\, socially\, and politically changing climate brought by the Roman Empire.  \nSixteen papers\, presented across three days\, will bring together different perspectives on the effects of connections\, exchange\, and innovation in the region in terms of commodity flow\, demography\, foodways\, religious interaction\, social dynamics\, and cultural transformations. With a strong focus on cutting-edge approaches\, the conference seeks to establish an interdisciplinary dialogue\, challenge existing paradigms\, and stimulate fresh perspectives on the complex interplay between global connections and local innovations in Roman Greece during this dynamic period. \n  \nOpening keynote lecture: Prof. Greg Woolf (UCLA) Only Disconnect. Resisting the Deep History of Roman Greece. \nClosing keynote lecture: Prof. Miguel John Versluys (​​Leiden University) Only Connect. Roman Greece in its Afro-Eurasian Context. \n  \nFor registration and the full programme\, please visit the conference website: https://sites.google.com/view/new-directions-roman-greece/home \nPlease note this is an in-person event that will be livestreamed. Registration is required for both in-person and online attendance. \nOrganising Committee: Sanja Vucetic (University of Sheffield)\, Vassilis Evangelidis (Athena Research Center)\, Dimitris Grigoropoulos (DAI Athen)\, and Giorgos Mouratidis (BSA). \nAny queries may be directed to Sanja Vucetic (s.vucetic@sheffield.ac.uk) \n

SUMMARY:‘Interdisciplinary Approaches to Mortuary Data’
DESCRIPTION:LBA/EIA/Archaic Aegean ECR group mini conference (Zoom)\, hosted by the British School at Athens: ‘Interdisciplinary Approaches to Mortuary Data’ \nCo-organised by Hannah Jingwen Lee (Sheffield) and Michael Loy (BSA) \nThis is to be the fourth in a series of meetings aimed at laying the foundations for a collaborative network of Early Career Researchers with interests broadly embracing the archaeology of the Aegean region from the Late Bronze to the Archaic Period. The network first met in 2021 on the initiative of James Whitley\, Robin Osborne and Irene Lemos\, largely aiming to connect scholars who had not had opportunity to meet one another during lockdown phases of the pandemic. Events are designed to provide opportunities for PhD/DPhil students and early-stage postdocs to make short presentations relating to their research interests and to receive helpful and constructive feedback from their peers. \nThis fourth meeting on 23 November will focus on interdisciplinary approaches to mortuary data during the LBA/EIA/Archaic periods. Papers will reflect on varying approaches to the study of mortuary data\, interrogate the legacies of Classics and anthropological archaeology within this context\, and encourage participants to think about collaborative working through the cross-pollination of ideas. ‘Mortuary data’ here does not refer specifically to funerary archaeology analyses\, but rather any and all information that can be gathered from mortuary contexts and used to inform our thinking on ancient life- and deathways. Closing remarks will be provided by Jane Rempel\, Lecturer in Classical Archaeology at the University of Sheffield\, and Efthymia Nikita\, Assistant Professor in Bioarchaeology at the Science and Technology in Archaeology and Culture Research Centre (STARC)\, The Cyprus Institute\, and the event will be chaired by Hannah Lee\, who is currently completing her PhD research at the University of Sheffield. \nThe conference will be hosted on Zoom. Please note that we prefer to keep this mini-conference as a ‘closed’ event for ECRs\, to maintain the informal\, work-in-progress and workshop nature of the group. Anyone wishing to participate should contact Michael Loy\, contact details below\, to request a Zoom link for the event. \nProgramme: https://www.bsa.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/EIA-mini-conference-23-Nov-2022_programme.pdf \nWednesday 23rd November 2022\, 14.00 to 17.00 (UK time)

SUMMARY:State\, Culture\, Identities. Views from the Archaeological Archives
DESCRIPTION:Organisers: De­spina Lalaki (City Uni­ver­sity of New York – CUNY)\, Zi­novia Lialiouti (Na­tional and Kapodis­trian Uni­ver­sity of Athens)\, Nikos Vafeas (Uni­ver­sity of Crete)\, Ioan­nis Koubourlis (Uni­ver­sity of Crete) \n\nRegister to attend in person\nRegister to participate on Zoom (Friday)\nRegister to participate on Zoom (Saturday)\n\nSee the conference programme here \nStates are em­bed­ded in cul­tural sys­tems\, they are “con­cept-de­pen­dent” en­ti­ties while they also cre­ate con­cepts. In the case of Mod­ern Greece\, the state emerged at the in­ter­sec­tion of in­ter­weav­ing nar­ra­tives about west­ern civ­i­liza­tion and clas­si­cal an­tiq­uity. In turn\, as pro­tec­tor and trea­surer of the cul­tural cap­i­tal of the na­tion\, the Greek state ex­erted a great deal of sym­bolic power\, which it rou­tinely ex­er­cises to con­sol­i­date its po­lit­i­cal power con­struct­ing in the process hege­monic iden­ti­ties. Yet state-build­ing and the pro­duc­tion of na­tional ide­ol­ogy in Greece has never been a process con­fined to na­tional bound­aries\, nei­ther was this process com­pleted dur­ing the nine­teenth cen­tury: it is an evolv­ing process shaped by transna­tional and na­tional cur­rents \nMore­over\, state for­ma­tion is a dy­namic phe­nom­e­non which in­volves the in­ter­ac­tion of cul­tural\, po­lit­i­cal\, eco­nomic\, and so­cial net­works. In Greece many of these net­works re­volve around the ar­chae­o­log­i­cal field and its in­sti­tu­tions. The Greek Ar­chae­o­log­i­cal Ser­vice\, the Ar­chae­o­log­i­cal So­ci­ety and the For­eign Schools of Ar­chae­ol­ogy have served not merely as re­search cen­ters and cen­ters of ed­u­ca­tion but also as cen­tral nodes in com­plex net­works of cul­tural\, eco­nomic\, and po­lit­i­cal cir­cles around which na­tional and trans-na­tional agents\, for­eign and na­tional in­sti­tu­tions or­ga­nize and act. The rich archival col­lec­tions housed in the above in­sti­tu­tions serve as tes­ti­monies to this cen­tral role. \nCap­i­tal­iz­ing on the archival col­lec­tions of the ar­chae­o­log­i­cal in­sti­tu­tions in Greece\, while also invit­ing re­searchers to en­gage with them\, the con­fer­ence as­pires to bring to­gether schol­ars from a va­ri­ety of dis­ci­plines and fields – so­cial his­tory\, his­tor­i­cal and cul­tural so­ci­ol­ogy\, so­cial an­thro­pol­ogy\, ar­chae­ol­ogy\, ur­ban stud­ies and ar­chi­tec­ture\, mu­seum stud­ies\, ge­og­ra­phy\, art his­tory\, lit­er­ary stud­ies\, and ed­u­ca­tion – who take a re­la­tional ap­proach to en­gage with cul­ture as a sig­nif­i­cant de­ter­mi­nant of the state and the state as for­ma­tive agent of cul­ture to study the chang­ing mean­ings at­tached to mod­ern Greek iden­tity. While an­tiq­uity may have a cen­tral place in this dis­cus­sion it is not the only point of de­par­ture. \n

SUMMARY:Argos in History\, Argos and History: A Reappraisal of Ancient Argos
DESCRIPTION:Organisers: Stefano Frullini (University of Cambridge)\, Evan Vance (University of California\, Berkeley)\, Clémence Weber-Pallez (École française d’Athènes) \n\nRegister to attend in person\nRegister to participate on Zoom\n\nSee the conference programme here \nWhat are we to do with Argos? The city has long been an important source of detail for debates in epichoric history – from the semi-legendary king Pheidon\, to the battle of Sepia and Sparta’s relationships with its neighbors\, to the dramatic expansions of the Achaean League. Argos has also starred as an alternative to Athens\, another robust mainland democracy with enough documentation to further our understanding of democratic institutions and practices. These approaches\, while important\, do not place Argos in the center of wider interpretive trends in ancient history and archaeology: the former approaches fail to capture a wider audience\, while the latter risk not devoting enough attention to the complexities posed by Argos itself. \nArgos is overdue for a contemporary reexamination of its place in Greek history. A number of important conference publications have offered new insight since the turn of the century\, but as our understanding of the city’s historical periods develops – in no small part thanks to the important fourth-century archive under study by Charalambos Kritzas – a synthetic reevaluation of Argos’ place in history is all the more important. \nThe goal of this symposium is to provide a platform for synthetic conversations by bringing together specialists from across sub-fields of Argive history and archaeology\, centered around the focal question: how should new advances in these sub-fields change our overarching narratives of Argos’ past?

SUMMARY:Popular Music of the Greek World Conference
DESCRIPTION:The diversity of Greek music is apparent from the rich variety of local traditions and from the richness of urban popular music both established and emerging. This conference aims to explore and evaluate that diversity\, and its causes\, from broader musical\, sociological and artistic perspectives.  This is of great value in itself and also sheds light on the ethnomusicology of better-studied aspects of Greek music such as Rebetika\, which also features as one of the subjects of the conference.\n\nThe Organising Committee comprises: Roderick Beaton (King’s College London)\, Eleni Kallimopoulou (University of Macedonia)\, Panagiotis Poulos (University of Athens)\, Chris Williams (KCL/BSA)\, John Bennet (BSA).  The following have confirmed their participation: Nikos Andrikos\, Stathis Gauntlett\, Ofer Gazit\, Labri Giotto\, Reguina Hatzipetrou-Andronikou\, Michael Herzfeld\, Eleni Kallimopoulou\, Tony Klein\, Daniel Koglin\, Leonidas Oikonomou\, Chris O’Leary\, Nikos Ordoulides\, Risto Pekka Pennanen\, Nikos Poulakis\, Panayiotis Poulos\, Venla Sykäri\, Aspasia Theodosiou\, Dafni Tragaki\, Ioannis Tsioulakis\, Tassos Vrettos and Vassiliki Yiakoumaki.\n\nA more detailed programme is available here.\n\nSince space is limited\, please register for the conference – without cost – via Eventbrite here. \nWith thanks to: The A G Leventis Foundation\, Chris Williams\, Nicholas Petmezas and the Centre for Hellenic Studies\, King’s College London
