Call for Papers

The Centre for Classical and Humanistic Studies (CECH) of the University of Coimbra is pleased to host the 3rd Student Forum of Classical and Humanistic Studies, which will take place on 3 July, 2024, in Amphitheatre III.

This meeting aims to be a forum for shared discussion and reflection on ongoing and developed work by students from the three cycles (Bachelor's, Master's, and Doctorate) or recent doctorates (up to 5 years or attending post-doctoral studies) in the scientific and thematic areas hosted by CECH.

Proposals will be selected by the Scientific Committee, considering those within the areas of Greek Studies, Latin Studies, Medieval Studies, Renaissance Studies, Reception Studies, Cultural Heritage (classical, Lusophone, global), Food Heritage, Philosophy, and Musical Funds, as well as those that cross these themes in an inter- and transdisciplinary approach.

The best presentations will be invited for publication, in the form of an article, in the journal Boletim de Estudos Clássicos, indexed in Scopus, Web of Science, among others.
