14TH INTERNATIONAL FIEC CONGRESS 2014

The 14th international FIEC Congress will be held in 2014 in Bordeaux (France). The President of the Congress is Prof. Valérie Fromentin (fromentin.valerie@orange.fr).

FIEC congresses are prepared several years in advance by an Organization Committee, which is made of three sub-groups : a Local Committee, a National Committee and an International Committee.

Members of the Local Committee at the University of Bordeaux are : Prof. Valérie Fromentin (President of the Congress) ; Prof. Sophie Gotteland ; Prof. Gauthier Liberman ; Prof. Jean-Michel Rodaz ; Prof. Olivier Devillers.

Members of the National Committee are : Prof. Valérie Fromentin ; Prof. Jacques Jouanna ; Prof. Jean-Louis Ferrary ; Prof. Alain Billault ; Prof. Paul Demont ; Prof. Dominique Briquel.

Members of the International Committee are : Prof. Valérie Fromentin ; Prof. Martin Hose (President of the 2009 Berlin Congress ; University of Munich) ; Prof. Paul Schubert (FIEC Secretary General, University of Geneva) ; Prof. Martha Patricia Irigoyen (University of Mexico) ; Prof. Francisco Beltrán Lloris (University of Zaragoza) ; Prof. Gillian Clark (University of Bristol) ; Prof. Erkki Sironen (University of Helsinki) ; Prof. Elio Lo Cascio (Università di Roma «La Sapienza») ; Prof. Sarah Iles Johnston (The Ohio State University).

The full Committee convened in Bordeaux on Aug. 29th, 2011, in order to set the broad outline of the congress. A list of panels was established, and a provisional list of keynote guest speakers was drafted. These invited speakers are scholars of high scholarly reputation, who should ideally give a representative sample of Classical studies in a broad sense. While making this list, the Committee tried to find a proper balance between : sub-fields within Classical studies, geographical provenance, and gender.

A call for papers will be issued to the whole scientific community at a later date.
