We learned of Call for Abstracts for a
conference on diplomatic decision-making in the context of the multi-faceted
political and cultural contacts between the Ottoman Empire and the rest of
early modern Europe.
The
conference hosted by the Institute for Habsburg and Balkan Studies of the
Austrian Academy of Sciences (IHB ÖAW) and the Institute for History of the
Polish Academy of Sciences (IH PAN) seeks to examine the problem of diplomatic
decision-making in the context of the multi-faceted political and cultural
contacts between the Ottoman Empire and the rest of early modern Europe.
Firstly, its main scope focuses on both power conflicts and conflict-management
practice in Central Europe, Southeast Europe and the Mediterranean. In light of
political actions, it shall also reflect the significance of cultural exchange
in the directly affected regions, as well as the growing interest in the
Ottoman Empire and the Near East in Europe. Secondly, in order to enrich this
increasingly popular research field by new approaches, this event centers the
procedure of decision-making which has been largely under-investigated in the
field of European-Ottoman relations so far.
Splendid Encounters is a series of
international and interdisciplinary conferences that aims to bring together
scholars from different fields of study to consider diplomacy and diplomatic
activities in the early modern period within the broadest possible framework.
After nine successful meetings in, among others, Warsaw, Bath, Budapest,
Prague, Toulouse, Florence and Lisbon we invite you to join us for another
event, this time hosted by the Institute for Habsburg and Balkan Studies of the
Austrian Academy of Sciences (IHB ÖAW) in Vienna.
