[I-LanD Interuniversity Research Centre]

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to kindly remind you about the forthcoming seminar of the I-LanD Seminar Series - 4th Edition, entitled From Homeland to Hostland: Ethnographic Explorations of Food, Migration and Hospitality. The event will take place on Thursday, 2 October 2025, from 16:30 to 18:30 (CET), on Microsoft Teams.

Meeting ID: 382 943 321 602 4
Passcode: 3Dk6dZ94
or Join the meeting<https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/3829433216024?p=lEX4qIgyXlY0Nu5XbH>

The seminar will feature contributions from Jillian R. Cavanaugh (Brooklyn College and the Graduate Center, CUNY), Cornelia Gerhardt (Saarland University), Petros Karatsareas (University of Westminster), and Kathleen C. Riley (Rutgers University, New Jersey), in conversation with Siria Guzzo (University of Salerno).

This seminar will explore the intersection of food and food-related practices, language, and social identity among migrant communities. Drawing on ethnographic case studies from diverse global contexts, the panel will examine food not only as a source of nourishment but also as a sociolinguistic resource through which cultural heritage, social bonds, and resistance to assimilation are expressed.

The I-LanD Seminar Series<https://i-land-researchcentre.eu/the-i-land-seminar-series-3/> is designed to foster critical dialogue and scholarly exchange. Each speaker will briefly present their contribution to the theme, followed by questions and discussion with fellow convenors and participants.

All the best,
Siria Guzzo and Pasquale Esposito
