Dear colleagues,
You are cordially invited to the 10th anniversary celebration of the professional international journal Convivium, which will take place on 24 November 2023 at 5:00 pm at the Hans Belting Library. We are very pleased to welcome Prof. Herbert L. Kessler as guest of honor at this event.
The journal Convivium was founded in 2014 as the "heir" of the interwar periodical "Seminarium Kondakovianum". The aim of this publication was (and still is) to link research across cultures, time and space. In its ten years of existence, this project - which was created jointly by the Universities of Brno and Lausanne and the Institute of Art History of the Academy of Sciences - has gained a significant reputation on a truly global level. With its focus on "medieval" art, the journal today represents world-class scholarly excellence.
Programme:
17:00 Opening ceremony with opening remarks by Prof. Ivan Foletti
17:30 Acanthus uenustas. Overlooking the Boundaries between Decoration and Meaning - lecture by Prof. Herbert L. Kessler
