CALL FOR PAPERS: From Seas to Oceans Nordic and Iberian Worlds in the Early Modern Period SWESP 3rd International Workshop – May 8-9 2023, Stockholm University

As costas bálticas e mediterráneas de Europa desenvolveron unha interdependencia sostida no período Moderno, como resultado do aumento das conexións comerciais e financeiras e dos conflitos dinásticos a gran escala. Así, xurdiron novas formas de goberno, diplomacia internacional, organizacións mercantís e infraestruturas de transporte. As redes económicas, culturais e políticas en Europa creceron e foron máis complexas. Xa non se limitaban ás concas do Báltico ou do Mediterráneo, senón que chegaron a mares e continentes afastados, desde o Atlántico ata o Pacífico.

O encontro “From Seas to Oceans” pretende explorar a influencia mutua entre o mundo ibérico e o nórdico e como esta contribuíu ao desenvolvemento das conexións europeas e globais a inicios do período Moderno. A xornada está organizada por SWESP –The International Research Network of Historical connections between Spain and Suecia– co apoio da Embaixada de España en Suecia, o Departamento de Historia da Universidade de Uppsala, o CEMAS (Centro de Estudos Marítimos da Universidade de Estocolmo) e a Universidade Complutense de Madrid.

O congreso terá lugar na Universidade de Estocolmo do 8 ao 9 de maio de 2023 e celebrarase en formato dobre. En primeiro lugar, haberá paneis para presentar a investigación en curso. Os estudantes de doutoramento terán a oportunidade de presentar a súa investigación e recibir comentarios de estudosos consagrados. En segundo lugar, haberá mesas redondas para discutir futuras liñas de investigación, presentacións de libros e apoiar a cooperación entre os investigadores do norte e do sur de Europa do período Moderno. Na primeira noite, celebrarase unha recepción na Embaixada de España en Suecia para dar comezo a actividade científica.

 

Convocatoria de traballos:

Convídase a investigadores predoutorais e posdoutorais a presentar traballos que traten de conexións, influencias e circulacións entre a península ibérica e a escandinava. Preferentemente, serán aceptados traballos sobre os seguintes temas: a construción de cadeas mundiais de mercadorías, a aparición da cooperación internacional e a migración, a globalización das rexións periféricas e das sociedades marítimas e o intercambio de coñecementos políticos, científicos e tecnolóxicos. Non obstante, tamén son benvidos outros traballos centrados nos temas das conexións entre o mundo ibérico e o báltico, así como estudos de caso sobre calquera destes espazos rexionais. Os solicitantes deben enviar unha proposta antes do 31 de xaneiro de 2023 a swespworkshops@gmail.com. As propostas deberán constar dun título provisional, un currículo curto (1 páxina) e un resumo dun máximo de 250 palabras. A organización tamén proporcionará polo menos cinco bolsas para cubrir os gastos de viaxe e aloxamento dos investigadores en fase inicial que non residan en Suecia. Se estás interesado, inclúe unha breve carta de motivación de 100-150 palabras sobre como pode afectar a túa participación na conferencia na túa investigación. Os candidatos seleccionados para as bolsas serán informados ata o 1 de febreiro.

 

Especialistas convidados:

A conferencia contará coa participación dos seguintes académicos: Leos Müller (Stockholm University), Stefan Eklöf Amirell (Linneus University), Hanna Hodacs (Uppsala University), Joachim Östlund (Lund University), Margaret Hunt (Uppsala University), Manuel Herrero Sánchez (Pablo de Olavide University), Ana Crespo Solana (CSIC-CCSH), Oscar Recio Morales (Complutense University of Madrid), Mathieu Grenet (INU Champollion) e Rafal Reichert (University of Warsaw).

CALL FOR PAPERS: From Seas to Oceans Nordic and Iberian Worlds in the Early Modern Period SWESP 3rd International Workshop – May 8-9 2023, Stockholm University

The Baltic and the Mediterranean coasts of Europe developed a sustained interdependence in the Early Modern period, as a result of increasing commercial and financial connections and large-scale dynastic conflicts. New forms of governance, international diplomacy, mercantile organizations and transport infrastructures emerged. The economic, cultural and political networks in Europe grew larger and more complex. They were not limited to the Baltic or Mediterranean basins anymore, but reached distant seas and continents, from the Atlantic to the Pacific oceans.

The conference “From Seas to Oceans” aims to explore the mutual influence between the Iberian and the Nordic worlds and how it contributed to the development of European and global connections in the Early Modern period. The conference is organized by SWESP –The International Research Network of Historical connections between Spain and Sweden– with the support of the Spanish Embassy in Sweden, the History Department at Uppsala University, the CEMAS (Centre for Maritime Studies, Stockholm University) and the Universidad Complutense de Madrid.

The conference will take place at Stockholm University on May 8-9, 2023 and follows a twofold format. First, there will be panels to present work-in-progress research. Doctoral candidates will have the opportunity to present their research and receive feedback from senior scholars. Second, there will be roundtable sessions to discuss future lines of research, book presentations, and support cooperation between northern and southern European researchers of the Early Modern period. On the first evening, a reception will be held at the Spanish Embassy in Sweden.

 

Call for Papers:

We invite doctoral and postdoctoral researchers to present papers, dealing with connections, influences and circulations between the Iberian and the Scandinavian Peninsulas. We particularly welcome papers on the following topics: the construction of global commodity chains, the emergence of international cooperation and migration, the globalization of peripheral regions and maritime societies, and the exchange of political, scientific and technological knowledge. However, any other topics focusing on the connections between the Iberian and Baltic worlds are also welcome, as well as case studies on any of this regional spaces. Applicants should submit a proposal before 31 January 2023 to swespworkshops@gmail.com. Proposals should consist of a provisional title, short CV (1 page), and an abstract of a maximum of 250 words. The organization will also provide at least five scholarships to cover travel and accommodation expenses of early-stage researchers not residing in Sweden. If interested, please include a short motivation letter of 100-150 words on how your participation in the conference can impact your research. The selected candidates for the scholarships will be informed by 1st of February.

 

Guest scholars:

The conference will have the participation of the following senior scholars: Leos Müller (Stockholm University), Stefan Eklöf Amirell (Linneus University), Hanna Hodacs (Uppsala University), Joachim Östlund (Lund University), Margaret Hunt (Uppsala University), Manuel Herrero Sánchez (Pablo de Olavide University), Ana Crespo Solana (CSIC-CCSH), Oscar Recio Morales (Complutense University of Madrid), Mathieu Grenet (INU Champollion), and Rafal Reichert (University of Warsaw).
