XXIV Finnish Symposium on Late Antiquity
Slavery in Late Antiquity
Tvärminne, Finland
11-12 November, 2016

Research on slavery in the late Roman Empire and in the post-Roman kingdoms has been expanding and evolving in the recent decades. The theme will be approached from a wide perspective, including social, economic, political, legal, ideological and religious levels.

The keynote speakers of the symposium are: Chris De Wet (New Testament and Early Christian Studies, University of South Africa), Marianne Bjelland Kartzow (New Testament Studies at the University of Oslo) and Marja Vierros (Classics, University of Helsinki).

The symposium is free, but the number of participants we can take is limited. It will be organized at the Tvärminne Zoological Station<http://aalto.tvarminne.helsinki.fi/english/index.htm> on the southern coast of Finland. We offer transportation from Helsinki to Tvärminne and the return journey, as well as accommodation (one night) and meals in Tvärminne. However, we are not able to cover any travel costs to or accommodation in Helsinki.

Registration for the symposium has started; there are only ca 10 places left for guests who are not presenting a paper.
