Advanced Studies in the Humanities Lecture Series
Programa de Doctorado Estudios Avanzados en Humanidades
Especialidades en Historia, Arte, Filosofía y Ciencias de la Antigüedad
______________________________________________________________
Aimed at the doctoral program’s interdisciplinary audience, this shared activity will bring every year a number of international guest lectures representative of research innovation in the humanities. The Advanced Studies in the Humanities Lecture Series is made possible by the joint contribution of the doctoral program along with its participating departments, through their areas, research projects and other institutions.
Lectures are grouped according to the program’s four research lines:
Research Line 1: Identities, Power, and Society in the Mediterranean World and its Historical Context: From its Origins to the Current World
Research Line 2: History of Art
Research Line 3: Philosophy, Science, and Citizenship
Research Line 4: Historical and Literary Heritage of Antiquity
Open to the participation of both undergraduates and graduate students, they articulate with other activities in the doctoral program: the seminars and workshops, the seminar in doctoral research, and the lectures.
Please note the list keeps growing and dates are tentative. As new lectures are invited and dates approach, we’ll post times and venues.
