Call for Papers "Mediterranean Worlds: Cultures of Interpretation" International Conference Faculty of Arts and Science, Eastern Mediterranean University Famagusta (Cyprus) 27-29 May 2009 __________________________________________________ Eastern Mediterranean University invites participation in an interdisciplinary conference on the narratives of this remarkable region. What is of express interest to this conference is the way in which civilisational shifts, fusions, faultlines and oscillations of the Mediterranean world have given rise to extraordinary interpretations, life-world strategies and symbolic constructions. Such activity is manifested in the remarkable literature and art, philosophies, religions, archaeological readings, political theories and economic practices of the region. We seek thought-provoking papers exploring the symbolic/ideational dynamics of changing perceptions in and of the Mediterranean world. Please send a 250-word abstract, clear contact details, academic affiliation and title of paper. Please indicate which panel you would like to participate in. Deadline for submission of abstracts: January 15, 2009.
