LARG: What is Late Antiquity?

-
TBA

What is Late Antiquity? Building off of our discussions from last month, LARG members are invited to bring a primary source (broadly defined) from their own work that helps them conceptualize late antiquity in their own work. Through discussion of our sources, we seek to interrogate our own conceptions of Late Antiquity and how such conceptions carry through in our own work.

Welcome to LARG I: A Visit to the Kelsey’s “Byzantine and Islamic Worlds: 400–1800” Exhibition

Session Is Over
-
Kelsey Museum of Archaeology

Members of LARG will explore the Kelsey Museum’s new installation, “Byzantine and Islamic Worlds: 400–1800” Exhibition.” As we observe a diverse collection of material, we will ask the fundamental question, “What is Late Antiquity?” and re-think temporal and geographical boundaries. We will also consider how narratives of late antique culture(s) are curated for public audiences.
