The contributions come from scholars and academics, public and commercial cultural heritage professionals, developers, and engineers and other stakeholders in cultural heritage. The conference is a major plattform for the exchange of ideas and innovations in the field and also for the critical discussion of the impact, consequences and opportunities that arise with the application of technology in the cultural heritage field.

Polymnia
ISSN: 2491-1704

The international network Polymnia, created in 1999 by Jacqueline Fabre-Serris and Françoise Graziani to promote the study of the mythographical tradition in Europe from Antiquity to the 17^th Century has developed two types of activities: a programme of conferences in the various partner institutions and the publications of bilingual texts with translations and notes in the series Mythographes (Presses Universitaires du Septentrion).

The journal Polymnia continues the research programme of the network. It offers a space for interdisciplinary and diachronic reflection and debate about mythographical texts in Antiquity, in the Middles Ages, and in the Renaissance.

New Open Access Journal: Essays in Long Late Antiquity

Essays in Long Late Antiquity

ISSN (online): 3049-5199 

 

Essays in Long Late Antiquity (ELLA) is a newly-created Open Access, peer-reviewed journal positioned in the field of first millennium studies, a research framework that has gained momentum in recent years. The journal moves away from a Western European periodization of late antiquity in order to entice interdisciplinary and superregional approaches. Therefore, the journal is open to submissions dealing with circa the second to the ninth centuries (ca. 100 – 800 CE) and the broader Afro-Eurasian region, taking a stand against disciplinary siloing and recognizing increasing interconnectivity in this period. Submissions dealing with individual periods and places within this wider geographic and temporal scope are also welcome.

ELLA acts as a place of publication for those in history, archaeology, art history, religious studies, and philology. It fosters exchange between researchers often separated by disciplinary boundaries, offering them the chance to publish shorter essays and translations of late antique sources alongside traditional journal articles.

The first issue will appear in Spring 2026.
