Future in the past: Bulgarian history growing online
Within the ENArC project the activities of linking neighbourhoods – that is continuously expanding its network of institutions – holds a special position as it is one of the maximes of ICARUS. As ENArC project partner from Serbia, the Institute for Balkan Studies of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts cooperates with the Institute for Literature of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences as their neighbours for this conference. The conference will be held in S0fia and serves two purposes:
- show intermediate results of the mentioned cooperation, with a highlight in presenting the online archives of preserved medieval Bulgarian charters, and
- give colleagues with respective research interests and expertise as well as archival and cultural institutions from Bulgaria the opportunity to present and exchange their own experiences and results in digital processing of historical, especially medieval sources.
The detailed programme can be found here.
The conference ARCHIVES AND HISTORY Current Trends in European Historiography of the Great War gathers international experts from the archival world who, based on demonstrative examples and specific projects, illustrate the means of contextualizing and presenting archival material regarding the First World War.
