Central European Interdisciplinary Summer School

Dear friends and colleagues, thank you for participating in the Central European Interdisciplinary Summer School 2022.

We are very happy that we were able to have speakers with a wide range of expertise and attendees with similarly various research interests. We learned a lot not only from our professors but also from our fellow students. The discussions of the summer school have provided us with several exciting ideas and further research questions.

We would like to encourage our followers to join our initiative to create an association dedicated to the history of the region. For the future of our summer school, we wish to invite more students and scholars also from the field of anthropology, archeology, languages as well as politics and international studies. In 2023, we aim to hold an in-person event.

We would like to once again thank all our participants for the wonderful and thought-provoking discussions, and overall the great time we had at our online event last weekend.

Central European Interdisciplinary Summer School, c. 1200–1700
University of Pécs, 22–24 July 2022

We are pleased to announce a new initiative that aims to create a network of young and established researchers interested in the medieval and early modern period in Central Europe. Discussions may deal with, but are not limited to, the following suggested questions: To what extent can we determine a Central European region in the pre-modern era? What historiographical significance does this area bear for us scholars today? How can the methodology of connected history be used in the study of Central European history?

The Central European Interdisciplinary Summer School will take place at the University of Pécs with the goal of connecting early career researchers (PhD students and postdoctoral fellows) of medieval and early modern European history, and of stimulating international and interdisciplinary investigation among them. The event will present a wide range of academic lectures from distinguished scholars as well as provide participants with the opportunity to consider historiographical issues and methodological approaches in the form of workshops and seminars. By offering roundtable discussions, book launch events and museum visits; this summer school will enhance our understanding of the political, diplomatic, economic, religious, and social history of the Central European region. We hope to establish a research community from which future conferences and publications could arise.

Motivation letters of 200-250 words along with a short biography up to 100 words should be sent to the summer school organisers at [email protected] by 31 March 2022. We plan to hold the summer school in person in Pécs but this may change due to developments relating to Covid-19.

Tuition fee: 150 EUR (please indicate in your application your request for accommodation)
