Emotions in Antiquity
Interdisciplinary conference
Bern, 2-3 October 2026
Submission deadline: 22 May 2026
The conference, hosted by the institute of Jewish Studies, is conceived as a forum for genuine interdisciplinary exchange within the broader field of ancient studies. We invite contributions from Archaeology, Ancient History, Classical Philology (Greek and Latin studies), Jewish Studies, Biblical Studies, and related disciplines. All contributions share a focus on emotions, affects, or emotional concepts in ancient cultures - from the Hebrew Bible to the Graeco-Roman world.
A particular concern of the conference is to bring together early-career researchers and established scholars in substantive dialogue: doctoral candidates and postdoctoral researchers are explicitly encouraged to apply alongside senior academics. The conference will be structured into thematic sections organised according to research field and period.
Submission
Please submit an abstract including theoretical framework, meta-reflection on the epistemic value of the emotion-focused approach of 300 to 500 words and a brief academic CV until May 22, 2026 to ilija.baumann@unibe.ch
