We have the honor to invite you to participate in the international conference: Philomathic Tradition. The bicentennial of the trial of Philomaths and Philarets, organized by the Chair of Textology and Edition of the John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin (Poland). The conference is planned as the final activity in the project we have been conducting for the past five years: The Philomaths’ Archive – Digital Edition, and its timing coincides with the bicentennial of the trial of the Philomaths and Philarets and the first edition of the Adam Mickiewicz’s masterpiece Dziady. During this conference, we would like to discuss various aspects of the legacy of the Philomaths’ Society and related artists and organizations. We are interested in both literary and linguistic approaches, as well as historical ones. We would like to discuss also some editorial problems, including digital editing models and tools used in digital documentary editions.
The conference sessions will be held in Polish and English. Simultaneous translation will be provided for speakers and the audience.
We plan to publish the conference papers in the monographic issue of “Roczniki Humanistyczne” magazine in 2024. The conference will be held in Lublin on November 14-16, 2023. Please send your participation application, topic proposal, a short abstract, and any questions to the following email address: [konferencja.arfi@gmail.com].
