Meeting Description:

The 1st Annual Kurultai of the Endangered Cultural Heritage commemorates the
two millennia since the death of exiled poet Ovid here in the ancient city of
Tomis where the poet wrote his verse in the vernacular.

The conference also includes plenary sessions, workshops and roundtable
discussions, and other events.

AKECH 2018 will be preceded by the Festival of the Endangered Cultural
Heritage, FECH 2018, which will take place between July 1 and July 4.

Objective: The Kurultai is organized in the spirit of communion, as this is an
imperative time for international scholars, independent researchers, artists
and activists to fear the potential disappearance of our cultural heritage and
to engage in shared dialogues towards generating world-changing impact and a
better future. We believe we can better understand different habits of mind
when we immerse ourselves into different perspectives and unique approaches.
We imagine a rich future rooted in a better understanding of our intricate
history and in a multitudinous cultural present.


Call for Panels:

We encourage sessions within and across a variety of disciplines and
theoretical perspectives.

Conference Language: While the plenary sessions will be held in English,
panels can be held either in English, Romanian or Tatar (or its related
Central Asian languages).

Structure: AKECH 2018 seminars are organized by individual members around
topics of their own choosing.

Most papers are grouped into twelve-person seminars that meet two hours per
day for three days of the lecture to foster extended discussion. Some
eight-person (or smaller) seminars meet just the first two days of the
lecture. Depending on space availability, we may also consider accepting a
limited number of one-day seminars, especially if they are innovative either
in presentation format or in terms of theme.

Important Dates:
