-----Original Message----- From: Classicists [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Carolyn Bartley Sent: 01 October 2010 11:58 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: SASSOFERRATO: APPLICATIONS INVITED SASSOFERRATO: APPLICATIONS INVITED Every summer the Istituto Internazionale di Studi Piceni runs a conference on humanistic subjects at Sassoferrato (between Perugia and Ancona). It lasts for a week, of which Sun.-Wed. is taken up with seminars, Wed.-Sat. with papers. The atmosphere is relaxed and convivial. In 2011 the starting date is June 26th. Papers are published in Studi Umanistici Piceni, which has a fine record of appearing promptly. The seminars, in 2011 on 'L'idea di Roma dall'Ellenismo all'Umanesimo', are designed for students at roughly doctoral level, and grants are offered that cover bed and board. Students who wish to attend and receive a grant should have enough Italian to profit from both the seminars and the papers. Up to three grants will be available for students from the U. K. and the Republic of Ireland; applications or inquiries should be sent as soon as possible, but in any event by the end of November 2010, to Professor Michael Reeve ([log in to unmask]). Papers, which can be given in any of the main European languages, may be either full papers (30 minutes) or communications (20 minutes). In 2011 the topic of the conference is 'Pace e guerra nell'Umanesimo e nel Rinascimento in Europa e nelle Marche', but other humanistic topics can be accommodated, especially if they concern the Marche (Picenum). Anyone from the U. K. or the Republic of Ireland who would like to give a paper should get in touch with Michael Reeve (as above) by the end of November 2010.
