The joint conference is a part of the Project \u201cRituals, Ceremonies and Symbols of the Croatian Middle Ages in the European Context (800-1600),\u201d financed by the Croatian Science Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The aim of the conference is to explore the vast and complex world of rituals, as well as their associated ceremonies, and symbols in the so-called \u201clong Middle Ages,\u201d the period from the first mentions of Croatian dukes as vassals of the Frankish Empire until the beginning of Early Modern Times with Croatia under Habsburg rule. Since symbolic communication is typically ambiguous and contextual it is necessary to use a broader (geographical) perspective and an interdisciplinary approach to understand and analyze these themes within the wider framework of the European Middle Ages. <strong>While the Project focuses on Croatia and the surrounding regions, the Conference also welcomes and encourages contributions from scholars dealing with rituals in other European regions in the Medieval and Early Modern period<\/strong>, as these can serve as comparative examples to inspire new avenues of study of the Croatian Middle Ages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Conference invites proposals within the following thematic strands (although applicants are free to propose other topics related to the broader study of rituals):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I Rituals of Power: Secular, Religious, Civic&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>II Media of (Self)representation: Textual, Visual, Performative<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>III Clash of Rituals and Meanings: Individuals and groups<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>IV Materiality of Rituals: Spaces and Objects<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>V Cultural Transfers of Rituals: Regions, Ethnicities, Languages, Dynasties<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There will be an opening roundtable discussion on the theories and methodologies of the study of rituals, as well as a daily evening discussion summarizing and commenting on the sessions of the day.&nbsp; Moreover, we will have three distinguished keynote speakers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. &nbsp; &nbsp; Zbigniew Dalewski, <em>Tadeusz Manteuffel Institute of History Polish Academy of Sciences<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. &nbsp; &nbsp;Nina Glibeti\u0107, <em>University of Notre Dame<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. &nbsp; &nbsp;Du\u0161an Zupka, <em>Comenius University in Bratislava<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>We welcome individual and panel submissions from scholars at every stage of their research career working inside or outside Higher Education, as well as doctoral students<\/strong>. Proposed panel submissions are welcome to suggest a moderator. The delivered papers should be twenty minutes long. We support hybrid sessions but will exclude entirely virtual sessions.
