Conference, Brussels, 19 and 20 June 2025
The international Scientific Research Group (SRN) ‘Literatures without Borders’, funded by the Research-foundation Flanders (FWO) organizes a conference on premodern transnational literatures in the Palace of the Academies in Brussels on 19 and 20 June 2025. The conference aims to investigate how transnational/cosmopolitan literatures function, and if a conceptual framework could be devised that better characterizes, defines, and understands premodern literary transnationalism. Keynote speaker will be Prof. dr. Karla Mallette (U-Michigan), whose work on premodern literary cosmopolitanism (e.g. Lives of the Great Languages, 2021) forms an important cornerstone of the current scholarly debate.
