We are pleased to invite you to the 11th Conference on Baltic Studies in Europe. Our focus will be “Traditions, Transitions, Transfers” and we are looking forward to welcoming you here in Marburg on September 7-10, 2015. The Herder-Institute for Historical Research on East Central Europe – Institute of the Leibniz-Association, which organizes the forthcoming CBSE 2015 in cooperation with the Department of History of the Philipps-Universität Marburg and the Giessen Center for Eastern European Studies (GiZO), aims at bringing together representatives of academic communities who share the interest of exploring the Baltic region from multiple perspectives and fields of research. As the Baltic provides a particular historical, political, linguistic, social, cultural and ideological contact zone where the meanings of identities, languages and relationships are (re-)negotiated, the CBSE 2015 wants to exemplify questions of tradition, transition, and transfer from different perspectives as well as from multiple subjects dealing with this region.
