Summer School in Critical Theory and Praxis: Literature and Society

The Summer School, organised in collaboration with partners within the framework of The Cartography of Political Novel in Europe project (Horizon Europe), is hosted by the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Zagreb – Centre for Theoretical Research in the Humanities (CTIH).

The Summer School is conceived as a meeting point for the academic sector, cultural and civil institutions, and wider society. This seven-day intensive programme brings together scholars, students, researchers, artists, educators, activists, cultural practitioners, and policymakers for interdisciplinary exchange through lectures, workshops, and cultural events. The programme connects theoretical inquiry with literary and artistic practice, providing a platform to discuss current social and political issues while fostering critical thinking, dialogue, and the development of new research and artistic collaborations.

Participants will have the opportunity to engage in a stimulating international environment, exchange ideas with distinguished lecturers and artists, and network with peers from diverse disciplines and sectors.
