[#FocusOn] GrECI’s Project 🔍 💭 It’s been more than a year already that the European GrECI project allows universities to collaborate together, but do you really know what it's all about ? Here's a reminder of what the essence of the #project is. The heritage of ancient Greece is commonly acclaimed as a ‘pillar’ of common European culture and identity. The complex historical processes of cultural reception and appropriation that shaped this notion are, however, still hardly understood. The aim of the GrECI project is to examine this complex historical subject and its implications for present-day ideas of European identity within an interdisciplinary and #international framework, through a consortium of three #partners from Cyprus (University of Cyprus) Norway (Universitetet i Oslo (UiO)) and France (université de Franche-Comté). 🤝 👉 The three partner institutes will approach the subject from four different disciplines: 𝐭𝐡𝐞 #𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤, 𝐝𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 #𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐬, 𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 #𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲. ➡ If you would like to find out more about this important project, please visit our website: https://greci-twinning.org European Commission #greci #project #studies #partners #approach #history #greece #international #university #disciplines #european #europe #ClassicalReception #hellenism #eutwinning Natasha Constantinidou Han Lamers Marie Barral-Baron
