Literature

The Literature Unit of the Athens Institute is organizing its 18^th Annual International Conference on Literature, 2-5 June 2025, Athens, Greece sponsored by the Athens Journal of  Philology. 

The aim of the conference is to bring together academics and researchers from all areas of literature and other related disciplines. You may participate as stream leader, presenter of one paper, chair of a session or observer.

Consistent with the theme of the Athens Institute’s small academic events, all programs may include a few sessions on current topics in education and research.

Please note that all our conferences are non-thematic as explained in our policy (click here). However, academic members and friends can take the lead to organize and chair a microsymposium as part of this conference.  Click here to see our members’ and friends’ microsymposium proposals to be organized as part of this conference.

Please submit an abstract (email only) to: atiner@atiner.gr, using the abstract submission form by 11 February 2025 to: Dr. Stamos Metzidakis, Head, Literature Unit, Athens Institute & Professor Emeritus of French and Comparative Literature, Washington University in Saint Louis, USA & Adjunct Professor of French, Hunter College-CUNY, USA. Abstracts should include the following: Title of Paper, Full Name (s), Affiliation, Current Position, an email address, and at least 3 keywords that best describe the subject of your submission. Decisions are reached within 4 weeks.

If you want to participate without presenting a paper, i.e. organize a special session, chair a session, or any other contribution, please send an email  to Dr. Gregory T. Papanikos, President, Athens Institute (president@atiner.gr).
