<span lang="EN-US">The 26<sup>th</sup> multidisciplinary <i>Finnish Symposium on Late Antiquity
</i>will be organized on 8.-9. November 2019. The symposium will bring together scholars and postgraduate students with an interest in Late Antiquity from a variety of universities and disciplines (including, but not limited to classics, history, archaeology,
legal history and Roman law, theology, religious studies, art history). The title for this year’s symposium is
<b>Immigration, Emigration and Exile: Encounters in Late Antiquity (<i>ca. </i>150-700 CE)</b>. Our theme of forced and voluntary mobility in Late Antiquity will be approached from a wide perspective. However, we seek especially to trace the encounters between
individuals and peoples, both in terms of everyday interaction, and in terms of cultural discourses of inclusion, exclusion, coexistence and mutual recognition.</span></p>
