CfP: The Empire and I – Individuals in Empires and Postimperial Spaces

“‘The Empire and I’. Individuals in Empires and Postimperial Spaces”

Third annual conference of the RTG 2571 ‘Empires’ (Freiburg)

28 November – 30 November 2024, Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg, Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany

The third annual conference of the RTG Empires will explore the relations between individuals and empires and postimperial spaces. Analysing individuals in empires allows us to explore how empires shaped the lives of their subjects, but it also enables us to analyse how these subjects shaped empires on an individual basis.

We welcome contributions from all the humanities and social sciences as well as hybrid sciences. We especially encourage scholars in the early stages of their careers (PhD & Postdocs) to submit proposals. Please consult the Call for Papers for further information.

Interested applicants are invited to send a working title, an abstract (c. 400 words) for a presentation of 20 minutes and a short CV (no more than two pages) to this email address. The submission deadline has been extended to March 24th, 2024. Any further queries can be directed to the same address.
