Symposium on 'Ciceronianism, European Studies, Eurolinguistics'

Univ. of Rome 'La Sapienza' on 28-29 Sept. 2017

Dear Colleagues,

a joint symposium of the 'Euro-Linguistischer Arbeitskreis Mannheim' and of the scholars  who identify with the aims of '2.000. The European Journal' will be held at Roma 'La Sapienza' University on 28-29 September 2017.

The themes of the symposium are:

1) Theodor Mommsen and Cicero. For Theodor Mommsen's (1817-2017) bicentenary.

2) Genesis and Migration of Indo-European Languages- Research and theories on their origin.

3) The European society. History of an idea.

Those who would like to take part should send an abstract of their papers, along with a short c.v, to Matthew Fox and Ermanno Malaspina for Ciceronianism, to P. Sture Ureland for Eurolinguistics, to Vincenzo Merolle for European Studies, along with a short c.v., by the end of May.

This will be the second of a number of symposia, to be held in the coming years, in Rome or at other European universities.

The underlying idea from a philological point of view is that of analyzing the current development of European languages and of selecting a common vocabulary for Europe and the West. From a philosophical point of view it will be that of promoting the ideas of tolerance and civilization proper to Western democracies.

Therefore, we invite submission of papers and participation on the part of colleagues who, we are sure, will appreciate our efforts towards the advancement of learning.

Sincerely

On behalf of the editorial board

Matthew Fox 

Ermanno Malaspina

P. Sture Ureland

Vincenzo Merolle
