Полный текст сообщения:

Identity has been the subject of research with a great interest for Humanities and Social studies the last few decades. Either inspired by the modern multicultural milieu or the recognition of the importance of the individual, the interpretation of identity in the ancient world is a major issue of the current research of Classicists. This Conference aims to initiate a discussion on the nuances and multifaceted concept of Identity. Possible aspects include:

• Theoretical approach on Identity
• Personal and State Identity
• Constructing and Imposing Identity
• Political, Cultural and Religious Identity
• Reconstructing Identity from material culture
• Expression and Delivery of Identity
• Development of Identity through time
